利用Sidecar进行Configmap的热更新
利用Sidecar进行Configmap的热更新
ConfigMap概览
ConfigMap API资源用来保存key-value pair配置数据,这个数据可以在pods里使用,或者被用来为像controller一样的系统组件存储配置数据。虽然ConfigMap跟Secrets类似,但是ConfigMap更方便的处理不含敏感信息的字符串。
ConfigMap API给我们提供了向容器中注入配置信息的机制,ConfigMap可以被用来保存单个属性,也可以用来保存整个配置文件或者JSON二进制大对象。
example-configmap.yaml
kind: ConfigMap
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: example-configmap
data:
# Configuration values can be set as key-value properties
database: mongodb
database_uri: mongodb://localhost:27017
# Or set as complete file contents (even JSON!)
keys: |
image.public.key=771
rsa.public.key=42
创建Configmap
kubectel apply -f example-configmap.yaml
设置环境变量中使用ConfigMap
pod-env-var.yaml
kind: Pod
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: pod-env-var
spec:
containers:
- name: env-var-configmap
image: nginx:1.10
envFrom:
- configMapRef:
name: example-configmap
进入Pod查看环境变量
$ kubectl apply -f pod-env-var.yaml
pod "pod-env-var" created
$ kubectl exec -it pod-env-var sh
# env
# ...
KUBERNETES_SERVICE_PORT=443
KUBERNETES_PORT=tcp://10.68.0.1:443
database=mongodb
HOSTNAME=pod-env-var
database_uri=mongodb://localhost:27017
keys=image.public.key=771
rsa.public.key=42
# ...
Configmap 对象是支持热更新的,可以参考之前的文章在Kubernetes上ConfigMap热更新测试,对 Configmap 的变更,会同时反应到加载该 Configmap 的 Pod 之中。但美中不足的是,很多应用都不会检测配置文件的更新,因此就算是通过对 Configmap 的变更,完成了配置文件的修改,应用还是无法做出即时的响应的。可以在外部进行滚动更新;或者改写业务容器,监控文件变化之后重新启动业务进程。
在 Kubernetes 1.10 中新增的 Pod 内共享进程命名空间ShareProcessNamespace
的功能,并且Kubernetes 1.12 成为beta状态,给这个问题带来了一点新思路:做一个 Sidecar 用于对配置文件进行监控,发现文件变化之后,发送重新载入的信号给业务进程,要求业务进程自行刷新。这样就无需对业务容器所在镜像进行修改了。
这样的方式也有其局限性,需要业务进程支持重载信号
以Nginx 为例子实现
nginx-cm.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: nginx-conf
data:
nginx.conf: |
user nginx;
worker_processes 4;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
events {
worker_connections 65535;
}
http {
log_format main
'remote_addr:$remote_addr\t'
'time_local:$time_local\t'
'method:$request_method\t'
'uri:$request_uri\t'
'host:$host\t'
'status:$status\t'
'bytes_sent:$body_bytes_sent\t'
'referer:$http_referer\t'
'useragent:$http_user_agent\t'
'forwardedfor:$http_x_forwarded_for\t'
'request_time:$request_time';
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;
location / {
root html;
index index.html index.htm;
}
}
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}
$ kubectl app -f nginx-cm.yaml
创建sidecar容器镜像
docker-entrypoint.sh
#!/bin/sh
while true
do
REAL=`readlink -f ${FILE}`
inotifywait --exclude .swp -e create -e modify -e delete -e move "${REAL}"
PID=`pgrep ${PROCESS} | head -n 1`
case "$SIGNAL" in
HUP)
echo "Reloading Nginx Configuration"
;;
USR1)
echo "logrotate nginx log"
;;
QUIT)
echo "nginx service stop"
;;
*)
echo "unsupport signal:$SIGNAL ..."
exit 2
esac
kill "-${SIGNAL}" "${PID}"
done
构建sidecar镜像
FROM alpine
ENV FILE="/tmp" PROCESS="nginx" SIGNAL="HUP"
RUN apk add --update inotify-tools
COPY docker-entrypoint.sh /
ENTRYPOINT ["/docker-entrypoint.sh"]
创建Nginx负载
apiVersion: apps/v1beta1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: nginx
spec:
replicas: 1
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: nginx
spec:
shareProcessNamespace: true # enable shareProcessNamespace
containers:
- name: nginx
image: nginx:1.10
ports:
- containerPort: 80
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /etc/nginx # mount nginx-conf volumn to /etc/nginx
readOnly: true
name: nginx-conf
- mountPath: /var/log/nginx
name: log
- name: inotify-nginx
image: 314315960/inotify-nginx:latest
imagePullPolicy: Always
securityContext:
capabilities:
add:
- SYS_PTRACE
volumeMounts:
- name: nginx-conf
mountPath: /etc/nginx
env:
- name: FILE
value: "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf"
- name: PROCESS
value: "nginx"
- name: SIGNAL
value: "HUP"
volumes:
- name: nginx-conf
configMap:
name: nginx-conf # place ConfigMap `nginx-conf` on /etc/nginx
items:
- key: nginx.conf
path: nginx.conf
- name: log
emptyDir: {}
这个yaml文件:
-
在
template.spec
中加入了shareProcessNamespace: true
,表示启用进行命名空间共享功能; -
新增一个的 Sidecar 容器inotify-nginx;
-
Nginx和 Sidecar 共享来自同一个 Configmap 的配置文件,根据加载情况为 Sidecar 定义了环境变量。
测试
root@k8s-master-1:~/k8s_manifests/configmap-rot-reload# kubectl apply -f nginx-cm.yaml
configmap/nginx-conf created
root@k8s-master-1:~/k8s_manifests/configmap-rot-reload# kubectl apply -f nginx-deployment.yaml
deployment.apps/nginx created
# 修改configmap内容 会触发inotifywait
root@k8s-master-1:~/k8s_manifests/configmap-rot-reload# kubectl edit cm nginx-conf
configmap/nginx-conf edited
日志输出
root@k8s-master-1:~/k8s_manifests/configmap-rot-reload# kubectl logs -f nginx-7464cd899-jfbrf -c inotify-nginx

Nginx 收到HUP
信号 对配置文件做了重新载入
总结
对于Nginx、Gunicorn、HA-Proxy 等都可以使用这种支持信号控制的方式来完成配置热更新工作。
