fleet - a distributed init system

Build Status

fleet ties together systemd and etcd into a distributed init system. Think of it as an extension of systemd that operates at the cluster level instead of the machine level. This project is very low level and is designed as a foundation for higher order orchestration.

Launching a unit with fleet is as simple as running fleetctl start:

$ fleetctl start examples/hello.service
Unit hello.service launched on 113f16a7.../172.17.8.103

The fleetctl start command waits for the unit to get scheduled and actually start somewhere in the cluster. fleetctl list-unit-files tells you the desired state of your units and where they are currently scheduled:

$ fleetctl list-unit-files
UNIT            HASH     DSTATE    STATE     TMACHINE
hello.service   e55c0ae  launched  launched  113f16a7.../172.17.8.103

fleetctl list-units exposes the systemd state for each unit in your fleet cluster:

$ fleetctl list-units
UNIT            MACHINE                    ACTIVE   SUB
hello.service   113f16a7.../172.17.8.103   active   running

Supported Deployment Patterns

  • Deploy a single unit anywhere on the cluster
  • Deploy a unit globally everywhere in the cluster
  • Automatic rescheduling of units on machine failure
  • Ensure that units are deployed together on the same machine
  • Forbid specific units from colocation on the same machine (anti-affinity)
  • Deploy units to machines only with specific metadata

These patterns are all defined using custom systemd unit options.

Getting Started

Before you can deploy units, fleet must be deployed and configured on each host in your cluster. (If you are running CoreOS, fleet is already installed.)

After you have machines configured (check fleetctl list-machines), get to work with the client.

Building

fleet must be built with Go 1.3+ on a Linux machine. Simply run ./build and then copy the binaries out of bin/ onto each of your machines. The tests can similarly be run by simply invoking ./test.

If you're on a machine without Go 1.3+ but you have Docker installed, run ./build-docker to compile the binaries instead.

Project Details

API

The fleet API uses JSON over HTTP to manage units in a fleet cluster. See the API documentation for more information.
