Introduction
|
||||||
==================
|
------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* :ref:`genindex`
|
The Python ``econtext`` package implements external *execution contexts*: an
|
||||||
* :ref:`modindex`
|
execution context is somewhere you can run Python code external to your main
|
||||||
* :ref:`search`
|
process, even on a remote machine.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**There is no requirement for installing packages, copying files around,
|
||||||
|
writing shell scripts, upfront configuration, or providing any secondary link
|
||||||
|
to the remote machine**. Due to the origins of econtext for use in managing
|
||||||
|
potentially damaged infrastructure, the remote machine need not even have a
|
||||||
|
writeable filesystem.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is not intended as a generic RPC framework, the goal is to provide a robust
|
||||||
|
and efficient low-level API on which tools like **Salt** or **Ansible** can be
|
||||||
|
built, and while the API is quite friendly and similar in scope to **Fabric**,
|
||||||
|
ultimately it should not be used directly by consumer software.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The primary focus is to centralize and perfect the intricate dance required to
|
||||||
|
run Python code safely and efficiently on a remote machine, while avoiding
|
||||||
|
temporary files or large chunks of error-prone shell scripts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Automatic Bootstrap
|
||||||
|
###################
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The package's main feature is enabling your Python program to bootstrap and
|
||||||
|
communicate with new Python programs under its control running on remote
|
||||||
|
machines, **using only an existing installed Python interpreter and SSH
|
||||||
|
client**, something that by default can be found on almost all contemporary
|
||||||
|
machines in the wild. To accomplish bootstrap, econtext uses a single 500 byte
|
||||||
|
SSH command line and 5KB of data sent to stdin of the remote SSH connection.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ python preamble_size.py
|
||||||
|
SSH command size: 411
|
||||||
|
Preamble size: 5098 (4.98KiB)
|
||||||
|
econtext.master size: 2403 (2.35KiB)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once bootstrapped, the remote process is configured with a customizable
|
||||||
|
**argv[0]**, readily visible to system administrators of the remote machine
|
||||||
|
using the UNIX **ps** command:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
20051 ? Ss 0:00 \_ sshd: dmw [priv]
|
||||||
|
20053 ? S 0:00 | \_ sshd: dmw@notty
|
||||||
|
20054 ? Ssl 0:00 | \_ econtext:dmw@Eldil.home:22476
|
||||||
|
20103 ? S 0:00 | \_ tar zxvf myapp.tar.gz
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The example context was started by UID ``dmw`` on host ``Eldil.home``, process
|
||||||
|
ID ``22476``.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
IO Multiplexer
|
||||||
|
##############
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The bootstrap includes a compact IO multiplexer (like Twisted or asyncio) that
|
||||||
|
allows it to perform work in the background while executing your program's
|
||||||
|
code. For example, the remote context can be used to connect to a new user on
|
||||||
|
the remote machine using **sudo**, or as an intermediary for extending the
|
||||||
|
program's domain of control outward to other machines, enabling your program to
|
||||||
|
manipulate machines behind a firewall, or to allow its data plane to match your
|
||||||
|
network topology.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The multiplexer also ensures the remote process is terminated if your Python
|
||||||
|
program crashes, communication is lost, or the application code running in the
|
||||||
|
context has hung.

In addition to an IO multiplexer, the external context is configured with a
|
||||||
|
custom **PEP-302 importer** that forwards requests for unknown Python modules
|
||||||
|
back to the host machine. When your program asks an external context to execute
|
||||||
|
code from an unknown module, all requisite modules are transferred
|
||||||
|
automatically and imported entirely in RAM without need for further
|
||||||
|
configuration.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code-block:: python
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
import myapp.mypkg.mymodule
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# myapp/__init__.py, myapp/mypkg/__init__.py, and myapp/mypkg/mymodule.py
|
||||||
|
# are transferred automatically.
|
||||||
|
print context.call(myapp.mymodule.my_function)

Logging Forwarder
|
||||||
|
#################
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The 5KB bootstrap configures the remote process's Python logging package to
|
||||||
|
forward all logs back to the local process, enabling management of program logs
|
||||||
|
in one location.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
18:15:29 D econtext.ctx.k3: econtext: SlaveModuleImporter.find_module('econtext.zlib')
|
||||||
|
18:15:29 D econtext.ctx.k3: econtext: _dispatch_calls((1002L, False, 'posix', None, 'system', ('ls -l /proc/self/fd',), {}))
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Stdio Forwarder
|
||||||
|
###############
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To ease porting of crusty old infrastructure code to pure Python, the bootstrap
|
||||||
|
redirects stdio for itself and any child processes back into the logging
|
||||||
|
framework. This allows use of functions as basic as **os.system('hostname;
|
||||||
|
uptime')** without further need to capture or manage output.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
18:17:28 D econtext.ctx.k3: econtext: _dispatch_calls((1002L, False, 'posix', None, 'system', ('hostname; uptime',), {}))
|
||||||
|
18:17:56 I econtext.ctx.k3: stdout: k3
|
||||||
|
18:17:56 I econtext.ctx.k3: stdout: 17:37:10 up 562 days, 2:25, 5 users, load average: 1.24, 1.13, 1.14

Blocking Code Friendly
|
||||||
|
######################
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Within each process, a private thread runs the I/O multiplexer, leaving the
|
||||||
|
main thread and any additional application threads free to perform useful work.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
While econtext is internally asynchronous, it hides this asynchrony from
|
||||||
|
consumer code. This is since writing asynchronous code is mostly a foreign
|
||||||
|
concept to the target application of managing infrastructure. It should be
|
||||||
|
possible to rewrite a shell script in Python without significant restructuring,
|
||||||
|
or mind-bending feats of comprehension to understand control flow.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Before:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#!/bin/bash
|
||||||
|
# Install our application.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
tar zxvf app.tar.gz
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code-block:: python
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def install_app():
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
Install our application.
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
os.system('tar zxvf app.tar.gz')
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
context.call(install_app)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Exceptions raised by function calls are propagated back to the parent program,
|
||||||
|
and timeouts can be configured to ensure failed calls do not block progress of
|
||||||
|
the parent.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Event-driven IO
|
||||||
|
###############
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Code running in a remote context can be connected to a *Channel*. Channels are
|
||||||
|
used to send data asynchronously back to the parent, without further need for
|
||||||
|
the parent to poll for changes. This is useful for monitoring systems managing
|
||||||
|
a large fleet of machines, or to alert the parent of unexpected state changes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code-block:: python
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def tail_log_file(channel, path='/var/log/messages'):
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
Forward new lines in a log file to the parent.
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
size = os.path.getsize(path)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
while channel.open():
|
||||||
|
new_size = os.path.getsize(path)
|
||||||
|
if new_size == size:
|
||||||
|
time.sleep(1)
|
||||||
|
continue
|
||||||
|
elif new_size < size:
|
||||||
|
size = 0
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
fp = file(path, 'r')
|
||||||
|
fp.seek(size)
|
||||||
|
channel.send(fp.read(new_size - size))
|
||||||
|
fp.close()
|
||||||
|
size = new_size

||||||

|
||||||

Compatibility
|
||||||
|
#############
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The package is written using syntax compatible all the way back to **Python
|
||||||
|
2.4** released November 2004, making it suitable for managing a fleet of
|
||||||
|
potentially ancient corporate hardware. For example econtext can be used out of
|
||||||
|
the box against Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, which was released in 2007.
