* connect: use heuristic to detect sidecar task driver
This PR adds a heuristic to detect whether to use the podman task driver
for the connect sidecar proxy. The podman driver will be selected if there
is at least one task in the task group configured to use podman, and there
are zero tasks in the group configured to use docker. In all other cases
the task driver defaults to docker.
After this change, we should be able to run typical Connect jobspecs
(e.g. nomad job init [-short] -connect) on Clusters configured with the
podman task driver, without modification to the job files.
Closes#17042
* golf: cleanup driver detection logic
Upcoming work to instrument the rate of RPC requests by consumer (and eventually
rate limit) requires that we thread the `RPCContext` through all RPC
handlers so that we can access the underlying connection. This changeset adds
the context to everywhere we intend to initially support it and intentionally
excludes streaming RPCs and client RPCs.
To improve the ergonomics of adding the context everywhere its needed and to
clarify the requirements of dynamic vs static handlers, I've also done a good
bit of refactoring here:
* canonicalized the RPC handler fields so they're as close to identical as
possible without introducing unused fields (i.e. I didn't add loggers if the
handler doesn't use them already).
* canonicalized the imports in the handler files.
* added a `NewExampleEndpoint` function for each handler that ensures we're
constructing the handlers with the required arguments.
* reordered the registration in server.go to match the order of the files (to
make it easier to see if we've missed one), and added a bunch of commentary
there as to what the difference between static and dynamic handlers is.
This PR adds validation during job submission that Connect proxy upstreams
within a task group are using different listener addresses. Otherwise, a
duplicate envoy listener will be created and not be able to bind.
Closes#7833
This PR implements first-class support for Nomad running Consul
Connect Mesh Gateways. Mesh gateways enable services in the Connect
mesh to make cross-DC connections via gateways, where each datacenter
may not have full node interconnectivity.
Consul docs with more information:
https://www.consul.io/docs/connect/gateways/mesh-gateway
The following group level service block can be used to establish
a Connect mesh gateway.
service {
connect {
gateway {
mesh {
// no configuration
}
}
}
}
Services can make use of a mesh gateway by configuring so in their
upstream blocks, e.g.
service {
connect {
sidecar_service {
proxy {
upstreams {
destination_name = "<service>"
local_bind_port = <port>
datacenter = "<datacenter>"
mesh_gateway {
mode = "<mode>"
}
}
}
}
}
}
Typical use of a mesh gateway is to create a bridge between datacenters.
A mesh gateway should then be configured with a service port that is
mapped from a host_network configured on a WAN interface in Nomad agent
config, e.g.
client {
host_network "public" {
interface = "eth1"
}
}
Create a port mapping in the group.network block for use by the mesh
gateway service from the public host_network, e.g.
network {
mode = "bridge"
port "mesh_wan" {
host_network = "public"
}
}
Use this port label for the service.port of the mesh gateway, e.g.
service {
name = "mesh-gateway"
port = "mesh_wan"
connect {
gateway {
mesh {}
}
}
}
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in Consul.
By default Nomad client will run the latest official Envoy docker image
supported by the local Consul agent. The Envoy task can be customized
by setting `meta.connect.gateway_image` in agent config or by setting
the `connect.sidecar_task` block.
Gateways require Consul 1.8.0+, enforced by the Nomad scheduler.
Closes#9446
This PR adds two additional constraints on Connect sidecar and gateway tasks,
making sure Nomad schedules them only onto nodes where Connect is actually
enabled on the Consul agent.
Consul requires `connect.enabled = true` and `ports.grpc = <number>` to be
explicitly set on agent configuration before Connect APIs will work. Until
now, Nomad would only validate a minimum version of Consul, which would cause
confusion for users who try to run Connect tasks on nodes where Consul is not
yet sufficiently configured. These contstraints prevent job scheduling on nodes
where Connect is not actually use-able.
Closes#10700
This PR adds job-submission validation that checks for the use of uppercase characters
in group and service names for services that make use of Consul Connect. This prevents
attempting to launch services that Consul will not validate correctly, which in turn
causes tasks to fail to launch in Nomad.
Underlying Consul issue: https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/6765Closes#7581#10450
This PR implements Nomad built-in support for running Consul Connect
terminating gateways. Such a gateway can be used by services running
inside the service mesh to access "legacy" services running outside
the service mesh while still making use of Consul's service identity
based networking and ACL policies.
https://www.consul.io/docs/connect/gateways/terminating-gateway
These gateways are declared as part of a task group level service
definition within the connect stanza.
service {
connect {
gateway {
proxy {
// envoy proxy configuration
}
terminating {
// terminating-gateway configuration entry
}
}
}
}
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in
Consul. The gateay task can be customized by configuring the
connect.sidecar_task block.
When the gateway.terminating field is set, Nomad will write/update
the Configuration Entry into Consul on job submission. Because CEs
are global in scope and there may be more than one Nomad cluster
communicating with Consul, there is an assumption that any terminating
gateway defined in Nomad for a particular service will be the same
among Nomad clusters.
Gateways require Consul 1.8.0+, checked by a node constraint.
Closes#9445
* Prevent Job Statuses from being calculated twice
https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/pull/8435 introduced atomic eval
insertion iwth job (de-)registration. This change removes a now obsolete
guard which checked if the index was equal to the job.CreateIndex, which
would empty the status. Now that the job regisration eval insetion is
atomic with the registration this check is no longer necessary to set
the job statuses correctly.
* test to ensure only single job event for job register
* periodic e2e
* separate job update summary step
* fix updatejobstability to use copy instead of modified reference of job
* update envoygatewaybindaddresses copy to prevent job diff on null vs empty
* set ConsulGatewayBindAddress to empty map instead of nil
fix nil assertions for empty map
rm unnecessary guard
If the connect.proxy stanza is left unset, the connection timeout
value is not set but is assumed to be, and may cause a non-fatal NPE
on job submission.
Add the ability to configure the Task used for Connect gateways,
similar to how sidecar Task can be configured.
The implementation here simply re-uses the sidecar_task stanza,
and now gets applied whether connect.sidecar_service or
connect.gateway is the thing being defined. In retrospect,
connect.sidecar_task could have been more generically named
like connect.task to make it a little more re-usable.
Closes#9474
This PR enables job submitters to use interpolation in the connect
block of jobs making use of consul connect. Before, only the name of
the connect service would be interpolated, and only for a few select
identifiers related to the job itself (#6853). Now, all connect fields
can be interpolated using the full spectrum of runtime parameters.
Note that the service name is interpolated at job-submission time,
and cannot make use of values known only at runtime.
Fixes#7221
This PR adds initial support for running Consul Connect Ingress Gateways (CIGs) in Nomad. These gateways are declared as part of a task group level service definition within the connect stanza.
```hcl
service {
connect {
gateway {
proxy {
// envoy proxy configuration
}
ingress {
// ingress-gateway configuration entry
}
}
}
}
```
A gateway can be run in `bridge` or `host` networking mode, with the caveat that host networking necessitates manually specifying the Envoy admin listener (which cannot be disabled) via the service port value.
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in Consul, and Nomad only supports running Envoy as a gateway using the docker driver.
Aims to address #8294 and tangentially #8647
Before, the service definition for a Connect Native service would always
require setting the `service.task` parameter. Now, that parameter is
automatically inferred when there is only one task in the task group.
Fixes#8274
Fixes#6853
Canonicalize jobs first before adding any sidecars. This fixes a bug
where sidecar tasks were added without interpolated names and broke
validation. Sidecar tasks must be canonicalized independently.
Also adds a group network to the mock connect job because it wasn't a
valid connect job before!
