Kubernetes / Helm

Deploy the published Docker Hub runtime image with the chart in helm/openstack-api-simulator.

Image: inecs/openstack-api-simulator

The chart mirrors Docker Compose:

Component	Role
simulator Deployment	FastAPI app on :8080
api-gateway Deployment	nginx multi-port OpenStack gateway
PostgreSQL StatefulSet	Bundled Postgres 17 (optional)
migrate initContainer	Idempotent schema migrations
seed Job (optional)	minimal or demo lab data

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.27+ (or comparable)
• Helm 3.14+
• For Ingress TLS: Ingress NGINX and cert-manager

Example cert-manager install:

kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.17.2/cert-manager.yaml

Quick install (Hub release + Ingress + Let's Encrypt)

From a git checkout of this repository:

helm upgrade --install os-sim ./helm/openstack-api-simulator \
  -n openstack-sim --create-namespace \
  -f ./helm/openstack-api-simulator/values-ingress-example.yaml \
  --set certManager.email=you@example.com \
  --set ingress.hosts[0].host=os-sim.example.com \
  --set ingress.tls[0].hosts[0]=os-sim.example.com \
  --set secret.ticketSigningKey="$(openssl rand -hex 32)" \
  --set postgresql.auth.password="$(openssl rand -hex 16)"

What this does:

1. Pulls inecs/openstack-api-simulator:0.1.0.
2. Installs bundled PostgreSQL 17 (postgres:17.5-bookworm).
3. Runs schema migrations in an init container (idempotent).
4. Seeds the demo lab profile (seed.enabled=true, ~1000 servers).
5. Deploys nginx api-gateway with OpenStack default ports (5000, 8774, 9696, …).
6. Creates ClusterIssuer resources (letsencrypt-prod / letsencrypt-staging).
7. Creates an Ingress → gateway :5000 (Keystone + Web UI) with TLS.

DNS for os-sim.example.com must point at your Ingress controller. Then:

kubectl -n openstack-sim get certificate,ingress,pods
curl -sS https://os-sim.example.com/health/ready
open https://os-sim.example.com/

Default seeded login: admin / secret (project demo or admin, domain Default).

Staging first (recommended)

helm upgrade --install os-sim ./helm/openstack-api-simulator \
  -n openstack-sim --create-namespace \
  -f ./helm/openstack-api-simulator/values-ingress-example.yaml \
  --set certManager.email=you@example.com \
  --set certManager.useStaging=true \
  --set ingress.hosts[0].host=os-sim.example.com \
  --set ingress.tls[0].hosts[0]=os-sim.example.com \
  --set secret.ticketSigningKey="$(openssl rand -hex 32)"

Use curl -k against the staging CA. Flip certManager.useStaging=false for production.

Minimal install (ClusterIP + port-forward)

helm upgrade --install os-sim ./helm/openstack-api-simulator \
  -n openstack-sim --create-namespace \
  --set secret.ticketSigningKey="$(openssl rand -hex 32)" \
  --set seed.enabled=true \
  --set seed.profile=minimal

kubectl -n openstack-sim port-forward \
  svc/os-sim-openstack-api-simulator-gateway \
  5000:5000 8774:8774 9696:9696 9292:9292 8776:8776

URL	Service
http://127.0.0.1:5000/	Keystone + console
http://127.0.0.1:8774/v2.1/	Nova
http://127.0.0.1:9696/v2.0/	Neutron

Full port matrix: ports.md.

External PostgreSQL

helm upgrade --install os-sim ./helm/openstack-api-simulator \
  -n openstack-sim --create-namespace \
  --set postgresql.enabled=false \
  --set secret.ticketSigningKey="$(openssl rand -hex 32)" \
  --set secret.databaseUrl='postgresql://user:pass@pg.example.com:5432/openstack_simulator'

Or use secret.existingSecret with keys DATABASE_URL and TICKET_SIGNING_KEY.

How the api-gateway works

Same model as Compose (docker/gateway/openstack-ports.conf):

1. Client connects to a service-specific port (e.g. Nova 8774).
2. nginx sets X-OpenStack-Service and X-Forwarded-Port.
3. FastAPI rewrites to /_os/<service>/… so /v3 (Keystone vs Cinder) does not collide.

Ingress (when enabled) fronts Keystone/UI on port 5000. For Nova/Neutron from outside the cluster, either:

• kubectl port-forward additional ports, or
• expose *-gateway as LoadBalancer / NodePort (gateway.service.type), or
• add extra Ingress rules / TCP services for those ports.

How TLS issuance works

When certManager.enabled=true and certManager.createClusterIssuer=true, the chart creates ACME ClusterIssuer objects (HTTP-01). The Ingress template adds:

metadata:
  annotations:
    cert-manager.io/cluster-issuer: letsencrypt-prod
spec:
  tls:
    - secretName: openstack-api-simulator-tls
      hosts: [os-sim.example.com]

The chart does not install cert-manager or the Ingress controller.

Operations

# logs
kubectl -n openstack-sim logs -l app.kubernetes.io/component=simulator -f
kubectl -n openstack-sim logs -l app.kubernetes.io/component=gateway -f

# reseed minimal
kubectl -n openstack-sim exec deploy/os-sim-openstack-api-simulator -- \
  python -m app.openstack.seed_cli --profile minimal

# reseed demo cloud
kubectl -n openstack-sim exec deploy/os-sim-openstack-api-simulator -- \
  python -m app.openstack.seed_cli --profile demo

# activate OpenStack pack series
kubectl -n openstack-sim set env deploy/os-sim-openstack-api-simulator \
  OPENSTACK_SERIES=caracal
# then restart the pod / helm upgrade with --set config.openstackSeries=caracal

# uninstall
helm -n openstack-sim uninstall os-sim
