Chaos Toolkit Extension for Service Fabric

This project is a collection of actions and probes, gathered as an extension to the Chaos Toolkit. It targets the Microsoft Service Fabric platform.

Install

This package requires Python 3.8+

To be used from your experiment, this package must be installed in the Python environment where chaostoolkit already lives.

$ pip install -U chaostoolkit-service-fabric

Usage

To use the probes and actions from this package, add the following to your experiment file:

{
    "type": "action",
    "name": "start-service-factory-chaos",
    "provider": {
        "type": "python",
        "module": "chaosservicefabric.cluster.actions",
        "func": "start_chaos",
        "secrets": ["azure"],
        "arguments": {
            "parameters": {
                "TimeToRunInSeconds": 45
            }
        }
    }
},
{
    "type": "action",
    "name": "stop-service-factory-chaos",
    "provider": {
        "type": "python",
        "module": "chaosservicefabric.cluster.actions",
        "func": "stop_chaos",
        "secrets": ["azure"]
    }
}

The parameters are straight from the Service Fabric API.

That's it!

Please explore the code to see existing probes and actions.

Configuration

Credentials

This extension uses the requests library under the hood. The requests library expects that you have a PFX certificate, converted as to the PEM format, that allows you to authenticate with the Service Factory endpoint.

Generally speaking, there are two ways of doing this:

• you have created a configuration file where you will run the experiment from (so with a ~/.sfctl/config file)

• you explicitly pass the correct environment variables to the experiment definition as follows:

  Configuration section:

  {
      "endpoint": "https://XYZ.westus.cloudapp.azure.com:19080",
      "verify_tls": false,
      "use_ca": false
  }

  Secrets section:

  {
      "azure": {
          "security": "pem",
          "pem_path": "./cluster-client-cert.pem"
      }
  }

  The PEM can also be passed as an environment variable:

  {
      "azure": {
          "security": "pem",
          "pem_content": {
              "type": "env",
              "key": "AZURE_PEM"
          }
      }
  }

  The environment variable name can be anything.
