Add a new driver capability: RemoteTasks.
When a task is run by a driver with RemoteTasks set, its TaskHandle will
be propagated to the server in its allocation's TaskState. If the task
is replaced due to a down node or draining, its TaskHandle will be
propagated to its replacement allocation.
This allows tasks to be scheduled in remote systems whose lifecycles are
disconnected from the Nomad node's lifecycle.
See https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad-driver-ecs for an example ECS
remote task driver.
Driver plugin framework to facilitate development of driver plugins.
Implementing plugins only need to implement the DriverPlugin interface.
The framework proxies this interface to the go-plugin GRPC interface generated
from the driver.proto spec.
A testing harness is provided to allow implementing drivers to test the full
lifecycle of the driver plugin. An example use:
func TestMyDriver(t *testing.T) {
harness := NewDriverHarness(t, &MyDiverPlugin{})
// The harness implements the DriverPlugin interface and can be used as such
taskHandle, err := harness.StartTask(...)
}
