nomad-helper

nomad-helper is a tool meant to enable teams to quickly onboard themselves with nomad, by exposing scaling functionality in a simple to use and share yaml format.

Running

The project has build artifacts for linux, darwin and windows in the GitHub releases tab.

A docker container is also provided at seatgeek/nomad-helper

Requirements

  • Go 1.13.1

Building

Recommend environment variables

export GO111MODULE=on
export GOPROXY=https://proxy.golang.org

To build a binary, run the following

# get this repo
go get github.com/seatgeek/nomad-helper

# go to the repo directory
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/seatgeek/nomad-helper

# install the `nomad-helper` binary into $GOPATH/bin
make install

# install the `nomad-helper` binary ./build/nomad-helper-${GOOS}-${GOARCH}
make install

This will create a nomad-helper binary in your $GOPATH/bin directory.

Configuration

Any NOMAD_* env that the native nomad CLI tool supports are supported by this tool.

The most basic requirement is export NOMAD_ADDR=http://<ip>:4646.

Installation

Binary

Source

  • make sure Go 1.10+ is installed (brew install go)
  • clone the repo into $GOPATH/src/github.com/seatgeek/nomad-helper
  • make install
  • go install / go build / make build

Usage

The nomad-helper binary has several helper subcommands.

attach

Automatically handle discovery of allocation host IP by CLI filters or interactive shell and ssh + attach to the running container.

The tool assume you can SSH to the instance and your ~/.ssh/config is configured with the right configuration for doing so.

NAME:
   nomad-helper attach - attach to a specific allocation

USAGE:
   nomad-helper attach [command options] [arguments...]

OPTIONS:
   --job value      List allocations for the job and attach to the selected allocation
   --alloc value    Partial UUID or the full 36 char UUID to attach to
   --task value     Task name to auto-select if the allocation has multiple tasks in the allocation group
   --host           Connect to the host directly instead of attaching to a container
   --command value  Command to run when attaching to the container (default: "bash")

tail

Automatically handle discovery of allocation and tail both stdout and stderr at the same time

NAME:
   nomad-helper tail - tail stdout/stderr from nomad alloc

USAGE:
   nomad-helper tail [command options] [arguments...]

OPTIONS:
   --job value    (optional) list allocations for the job and attach to the selected allocation
   --alloc value  (optional) partial UUID or the full 36 char UUID to attach to
   --task value   (optional) the task name to auto-select if the allocation has multiple tasks in the allocation group
   --stderr       (optional, default: true) tail stderr from nomad
   --stdout       (optional, default: true) tail stdout from nomad

namespace

namespace specific commands

gc

NAME:
   nomad-helper namespace gc - Cleans up empty namespaces

USAGE:
   nomad-helper namespace gc [command options] [arguments...]

OPTIONS:
   --dry  Dry run, just print actions
   --ignore-job value  Ignore a job ID when marking a namespace as empty. Can be provided multiple times.

If jobs are ignored when removing a namespace, those jobs will be deleted prior to the namespace being removed. A Nomad GC call will be run after any ignored jobs are removed to ensure that the removed state is synced to the cluster.

node

node specific commands that act on all Nomad clients that match the filters provided, rather than a single node

NAME:
   nomad-helper node - node specific commands that act on all Nomad clients that match the filters provided, rather than a single node

USAGE:
   nomad-helper node command [command options] [arguments...]

COMMANDS:
     drain                  The node drain command is used to toggle drain mode on a given node. Drain mode prevents any new tasks from being allocated to the node, and begins migrating all existing allocations away
     eligibility, eligible  The eligibility command is used to toggle scheduling eligibility for a given node. By default node's are eligible for scheduling meaning they can receive placements and run new allocations. Node's that have their scheduling eligibility disabled are ineligible for new placements.

OPTIONS:
   --filter-prefix ef30d57c                                   Filter nodes by their ID with prefix matching ef30d57c
   --filter-class batch-jobs                                  Filter nodes by their node class batch-jobs
   --filter-version 0.8.4                                     Filter nodes by their Nomad version 0.8.4
   --filter-eligibility                                       Filter nodes by their scheduling eligibility
   --percent                                                  Filter only specific percent of nodes
   --filter-meta 'aws.instance.availability-zone=us-east-1e'  Filter nodes by their meta key/value like 'aws.instance.availability-zone=us-east-1e'. Can be provided multiple times.
   --filter-attribute 'driver.docker.version=17.09.0-ce'      Filter nodes by their attribute key/value like 'driver.docker.version=17.09.0-ce'. Can be provided multiple times.
   --noop                                                     Only output nodes that would be drained, don't do any modifications
   --help, -h                                                 show help

Filter examples

  • nomad-helper node <command> <args>
  • nomad-helper node --noop --filter-meta 'aws.instance.availability-zone=us-east-1e' --filter-attribute 'driver.docker.version=17.09.0-ce' <command> <args>

drain

Filtering options can be found in the main node command help above

USAGE:
   nomad-helper node [filter options] drain [command options] [arguments...]

OPTIONS:
   --enable           Enable node drain mode
   --disable          Disable node drain mode
   --deadline value   Set the deadline by which all allocations must be moved off the node. Remaining allocations after the deadline are force removed from the node. Defaults to 1 hour (default: 1h0m0s)
   --no-deadline      No deadline allows the allocations to drain off the node without being force stopped after a certain deadline
   --monitor          Enter monitor mode directly without modifying the drain status
   --force            Force remove allocations off the node immediately
   --detach           Return immediately instead of entering monitor mode
   --ignore-system    Ignore system allows the drain to complete without stopping system job allocations. By default system jobs are stopped last.
   --keep-ineligible  Keep ineligible will maintain the node's scheduling ineligibility even if the drain is being disabled. This is useful when an existing drain is being cancelled but additional scheduling on the node is not desired.
   --with-benefits    Instead of flipping the regular drain flag it will make instance ineligible and will add a desired constraint to the task groups found on the node
        --constraint
        --operand
        --value
        --wait-for-pending  will wait for all the moved jobs to reach running state

Examples

  • nomad-helper node drain --enable
  • nomad-helper node --filter-class wrecker --filter-meta 'aws.ami-version=2.0.0-alpha14' --filter-meta 'aws.instance.availability-zone=us-east-1e' drain --noop --enable
  • node --filter-meta "aws.ami-version=1.9.6" drain --enable --with-benefits --constraint meta.aws.ami-version --operand '=' --value 1.9.8 --wait-for-pending
