CentOS SaltStack Docker Test Environment

Docker Compose setup to spin up a salt master and minions.

Quick Start Guide

Install Docker and Docker-Compose

Clone repo:

$ git fork https://git.corp.adobe.com/dcurtis/SaltStack-Docker-CentOS

$ cd SaltStack-CentOS-Docker

Startup both Master and Minion:

$ docker-compose up

This window will display debugging output from the salt master and minions

Open new terminal window and ensure you are in SaltStack-Docker-Dev-Env/

Login to your Master:

$ docker-compose exec salt-master bash

or use

$ chmod +x master-login.sh

$ ./master-login.sh

Login to your Minion:

$ docker-compose exec salt-minion bash

or use

$ chmod +x minion-login.sh

$ ./minion-login.sh

Now test with a ping from your Master:

$ salt '*' test.ping

The salt-master is set up to accept all minions that try to connect. Only minions within the docker-compose service network will be able to connect.

Running Multiple Minions:

$ docker-compose up --scale salt-minion=2

If you are running more than one minion with --scale=2, you will need to use docker-saltstack_salt-minion_1 and docker-saltstack_salt-minion_2 for the minions if you want to target them individually.

Host Names

The hostnames match the names of the containers so the salt master name is salt-master and the salt minion name is salt-minion.

Updating Docker-Compse OS build

If needed, you can make changes to the Docker instance, including adding additional binary packages to the docker stack by performing the following:

$ cd /SaltStack-CentOS-Docker

Make needed changes to the DockerFile(s) and save files

$ docker-compose build

$ docker-compose up
