Define configuration parameters
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
At this point, you have a fully functional planner. However, in more complex
|
||||
implementation, you may want to define some configuration options so one can
|
||||
tune the planner to its needs. To do so, you can implement the
|
||||
:py:meth:`~.Loadable.get_config_opts` class method as followed:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: python
|
||||
|
||||
from oslo_config import cfg
|
||||
|
||||
class DummyPlanner(base.BasePlanner):
|
||||
|
||||
# [...]
|
||||
|
||||
def schedule(self, context, audit_uuid, solution):
|
||||
assert self.config.test_opt == 0
|
||||
# [...]
|
||||
|
||||
def get_config_opts(self):
|
||||
return [
|
||||
cfg.StrOpt('test_opt', help="Demo Option.", default=0),
|
||||
# Some more options ...
|
||||
]
|
||||
|
||||
The configuration options defined within this class method will be included
|
||||
within the global ``watcher.conf`` configuration file under a section named by
|
||||
convention: ``{namespace}.{plugin_name}``. In our case, the ``watcher.conf``
|
||||
configuration would have to be modified as followed:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: ini
|
||||
|
||||
[watcher_planners.dummy]
|
||||
# Option used for testing.
|
||||
test_opt = test_value
|
||||
|
||||
Then, the configuration options you define within this method will then be
|
||||
injected in each instantiated object via the ``config`` parameter of the
|
||||
:py:meth:`~.BasePlanner.__init__` method.
