Rundeck S3 Log Storage Plugin

This is a plugin for Rundeck that uses Amazon S3 to store execution log files for backups or for cloud-friendly behavior.

Build

./gradlew clean build

Installation

  1. Copy the rundeck-s3-log-plugin-x.y.jar file to the libext/ directory inside your Rundeck installation. You can find the releases here.

  2. Enable the ExecutionFileStorage provider named org.rundeck.amazon-s3 in your rundeck-config.properties file:

# Set log execution storage backend to Amazon S3
rundeck.execution.logs.fileStoragePlugin=org.rundeck.amazon-s3

Configuration

You can define the configuration values $RUNDECK_DIR/framework.properties by prefixing the property name with the stem. For example:

framework.plugin.ExecutionFileStorage.org.rundeck.amazon-s3.<key>=<value>

Alternatively, use project.properties file with the stem project.plugin.ExecutionFileStorage.org.rundeck.amazon-s3 to achieve per-project configuration.

Configure AWS Credentials

The plugin will use the "credentials provider chain" for AWS access credentials, which allows you to externally configure the credentials in any of three ways:

  1. Environment variables AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_KEY
  2. Java system properties aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey
  3. Instance Profile credentials, if you are running on EC2. (See the IAM user guide).

If you want to specify access key and secret key, you can do so in the configuration:

The plugin allows you to set the following property key/values for credentials:

NB: These are stemmed with framework.plugin.ExecutionFileStorage.org.rundeck.amazon-s3

AWSAccessKeyId: AWS access key, required if using AWSSecretKey AWSSecretKey: AWS secret key, required if using AWSAccessKeyId AWSCredentialsFile: Properties file which contains accessKey and secretKey entries. The alternative to specifying the AWSAccessKeyId and AWSSecretKey

The plugin uses uses the following key/values for configuring the AWS S3 Bucket:

bucket: The name of the S3 bucket to use. This is the shorthand name, eg test-rundeck-logs

path: A path-like string that defines where in the bucket to store the log for a particular execution. You can include variables. Default value: rundeck/project/$PROJECT/logs/$ID

Variables in the path value include:

  • ${job.execid} - the execution ID
  • ${job.project} - the project name
  • ${job.id} - the Job UUID if it exists
  • ${job.group} - the Job Group if it exists
  • ${job.path} - the Job Name if it exists

region: AWS region name to use. Default: us-east-1

endpoint: Optional, a custom S3 compatible endpoint to use, such as https://my-host.com/s3

pathStyle: Optional, boolean, default=False, set to True if you need to define the bucket in your S3 like endpoint URL. e.g: https://\<s3_like_end_point_url\>/\<your_bucket_name\>

A custom way of defining buckets for your endpoint. Useful for non-AWS S3 like object storage technology e.g SwiftStack, Optums, etc. This background information should be useful.

Basic Example (/etc/rundeck/framework.properties)

# AWSAccessKeyId and AWSSecretKey can be specified in the file
framework.plugin.ExecutionFileStorage.org.rundeck.amazon-s3.AWSAccessKeyId=ABC123...
framework.plugin.ExecutionFileStorage.org.rundeck.amazon-s3.AWSSecretKey=ABC321...

# Alternately, AWSCredentialsFile can point to a custom file which contains `accessKey` and `secretKey`
framework.plugin.ExecutionFileStorage.org.rundeck.amazon-s3.AWSCredentialsFile=/path/to/awscredentials.properties

# Name of the bucket
framework.plugin.ExecutionFileStorage.org.rundeck.amazon-s3.bucket=test-rundeck-logs

# Path to store the logs
framework.plugin.ExecutionFileStorage.org.rundeck.amazon-s3.path=logs/${job.project}/${job.execid}.log

Using with Rundeck SSL Configuration

If you want to use this plugin when you have Rundeck configured with a custom SSL truststore, you will need to import the Amazon S3 SSL certificates to your truststore.

echo -n | openssl s_client -connect my-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com:443 > certs.out
keytool -importcert -trustcacerts -file certs.out -alias s3-amazonaws -keystore $RDECK_BASE/etc/truststore
