# go-ceph - Go bindings for Ceph APIs
|
|
|
|
[](https://godoc.org/github.com/ceph/go-ceph) [](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ceph/go-ceph/master/LICENSE)
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
The go-ceph project is a collection of API bindings that support the use of
|
|
native Ceph APIs, which are C language functions, in Go. These bindings make
|
|
use of Go's cgo feature.
|
|
There are three main Go sub-packages that make up go-ceph:
|
|
* rados - exports functionality from Ceph's librados
|
|
* rbd - exports functionality from Ceph's librbd
|
|
* cephfs - exports functionality from Ceph's libcephfs
|
|
* rgw/admin - interact with [radosgw admin ops API](https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/radosgw/adminops)
|
|
|
|
We aim to provide comprehensive support for the Ceph APIs over time. This
|
|
includes both I/O related functions and management functions. If your project
|
|
makes use of Ceph command line tools and is written in Go, you may be able to
|
|
switch away from shelling out to the CLI and to these native function calls.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
The code in go-ceph is purely a library module. Typically, one will import
|
|
go-ceph in another Go based project. When building the code the native RADOS,
|
|
RBD, & CephFS library and development headers are expected to be installed.
|
|
|
|
On debian based systems (apt) these may be:
|
|
```sh
|
|
libcephfs-dev librbd-dev librados-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On rpm based systems (dnf, yum, etc) these may be:
|
|
```sh
|
|
libcephfs-devel librbd-devel librados-devel
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On MacOS you can use brew to install the libraries:
|
|
```sh
|
|
brew tap mulbc/ceph-client
|
|
brew install ceph-client
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
NOTE: CentOS users may want to use a
|
|
[CentOS Storage SIG](https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Storage/Ceph)
|
|
repository to enable packages for a supported ceph version.
|
|
Example: `dnf -y install centos-release-ceph-pacific`.
|
|
(CentOS 7 users should use "yum" rather than "dnf")
|
|
|
|
|
|
To quickly test if one can build with go-ceph on your system, run:
|
|
```sh
|
|
go get github.com/ceph/go-ceph
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once compiled, code using go-ceph is expected to dynamically link to the Ceph
|
|
libraries. These libraries must be available on the system where the go based
|
|
binaries will be run. Our use of cgo and ceph libraries does not allow for
|
|
fully static binaries.
|
|
|
|
go-ceph tries to support different Ceph versions. However some functions might
|
|
only be available in recent versions, and others may be deprecated. In order to
|
|
work with non-current versions of Ceph, it is required to pass build-tags to
|
|
the `go` command line. A tag with the named Ceph release will enable/disable
|
|
certain features of the go-ceph packages, and prevent warnings or compile
|
|
problems. For example, to ensure you select the library features that match
|
|
the "pacific" release, use:
|
|
```sh
|
|
go build -tags pacific ....
|
|
go test -tags pacific ....
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Supported Ceph Versions
|
|
|
|
| go-ceph version | Supported Ceph Versions | Deprecated Ceph Versions |
|
|
| --------------- | ------------------------| -------------------------|
|
|
| v0.24.0 | pacific, quincy, reef | nautilus, octopus |
|
|
| v0.23.0 | pacific, quincy, reef | nautilus, octopus |
|
|
| v0.22.0 | pacific, quincy | nautilus, octopus |
|
|
| v0.21.0 | pacific, quincy | nautilus, octopus |
|
|
| v0.20.0 | pacific, quincy | nautilus, octopus |
|
|
| v0.19.0 | pacific, quincy | nautilus, octopus |
|
|
| v0.18.0 | octopus, pacific, quincy | nautilus |
|
|
| v0.17.0 | octopus, pacific, quincy | nautilus |
|
|
|
|
The tags affect what is supported at compile time. What version of the Ceph
|
|
cluster the client libraries support, and vice versa, is determined entirely
|
|
by what version of the Ceph C libraries go-ceph is compiled with.
|
|
|
|
To see what older versions of go-ceph supported refer to the [older
|
|
releases](./docs/older-releases.md) file in the documentation.

## Documentation
|
|
|
|
Detailed API documentation is available at
|
|
<https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/ceph/go-ceph>.
|
|
|
|
Some [API Hints and How-Tos](./docs/hints.md) are also available to quickly
|
|
introduce how some of API calls work together.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker run --rm -it --net=host \
|
|
--security-opt apparmor:unconfined \
|
|
-v ${PWD}:/go/src/github.com/ceph/go-ceph:z \
|
|
-v /home/nwatkins/src/ceph/build:/home/nwatkins/src/ceph/build:z \
|
|
-e CEPH_CONF=/home/nwatkins/src/ceph/build/ceph.conf \
|
|
ceph-golang
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run against a `vstart.sh` cluster without installing Ceph:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
export CGO_CPPFLAGS="-I/ceph/src/include"
|
|
export CGO_LDFLAGS="-L/ceph/build/lib"
|
|
go build
|
|
```
|
|

|
## Contributing
|
|
|
|
Contributions are welcome & greatly appreciated, every little bit helps. Make code changes via Github pull requests:
|
|
|
|
- Fork the repo and create a topic branch for every feature/fix. Avoid
|
|
making changes directly on master branch.
|
|
- All incoming features should be accompanied with tests.
|
|
- Make sure that you run `go fmt` before submitting a change
|
|
set. Alternatively the Makefile has a flag for this, so you can call
|
|
`make fmt` as well.
|
|
- The integration tests can be run in a docker container, for this run:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make test-docker
|
|
```
|
