Blaine Gardner c9d99e01a0 ci: use markdownlint to enforce mkdocs compatibility
mkdocs uses a markdown renderer that is hardcoded to 4 spaces per tab
for detecting indentation levels, including ordered- and
unordered-lists. Since we cannot easily change the renderer, begin using
a markdown linter in CI that will fail if official docs do not adhere to
the spacing rules.

As a starting point, the markdownlint config does not begin with the
default set of checks, which might overwhelm attempts to fix them.
Instead, focus on list-tab-spacing rules and a few other highly useful
checks.

markdownlint also has some gaps in its abilities that allow common Rook
doc issues to pass acceptance. However, it allows creating custom
linting plugins. Create 2 such linting plugins to check 2 things:

- all doc lines (except code blocks) must be aligned to a 4-space
  boundary, without exception. This ensures that markdown will render
  correctly with mkdocs. This unfortunately makes it possible to create
  lists that are internally aligned strangely.
- admonitions must all follow the same format of
  ```
  !!! header
      body
  ```

For the strange lists, this is allowed and renders correctly, but it
looks strange:

```md
- first bullet
- second bullet
    still second bullet
- third bullet

    has a paragraph
    of text inside

- last bullet

Container Object Storage Interface (COSI)

The Ceph COSI driver provisions buckets for object storage. This document instructs on enabling the driver and consuming a bucket from a sample application.

!!! note The Ceph COSI driver is currently in experimental mode.

Prerequisites

COSI requires:

  1. A running Rook object store
  2. COSI controller

Deploy the COSI controller with these commands:

kubectl apply -k github.com/kubernetes-sigs/container-object-storage-interface-api
kubectl apply -k github.com/kubernetes-sigs/container-object-storage-interface-controller

Ceph COSI Driver

The Ceph COSI driver will be started when the CephCOSIDriver CR is created and when the first CephObjectStore is created.

apiVersion: ceph.rook.io/v1
kind: CephCOSIDriver
metadata:
  name: ceph-cosi-driver
  namespace: rook-ceph
spec:
  deploymentStrategy: "Auto"
cd deploy/examples/cosi
kubectl create -f cephcosidriver.yaml

The driver is created in the same namespace as Rook operator.

Admin Operations

Create a BucketClass and BucketAccessClass

The BucketClass and BucketAccessClass are CRDs defined by COSI. The BucketClass defines the bucket class for the bucket. The BucketAccessClass defines the access class for the bucket. Rook will automatically create a secret named with rook-ceph-object-user-<store-name>-cosi which contains credentials used by the COSI driver. This secret is referred by the BucketClass and BucketAccessClass as defined below:

kind: BucketClass
apiVersion: objectstorage.k8s.io/v1alpha1
metadata:
  name: sample-bcc
driverName: ceph.objectstorage.k8s.io
deletionPolicy: Delete
parameters:
  objectStoreUserSecretName: rook-ceph-object-user-my-store-cosi
  objectStoreUserSecretNamespace: rook-ceph
---
kind: BucketAccessClass
apiVersion: objectstorage.k8s.io/v1alpha1
metadata:
  name: sample-bac
driverName: ceph.objectstorage.k8s.io
authenticationType: KEY
parameters:
  objectStoreUserSecretName: rook-ceph-object-user-my-store-cosi
  objectStoreUserSecretNamespace: rook-ceph
kubectl create -f bucketclass.yaml -f bucketaccessclass.yaml

User Operations

Create a Bucket

To create a bucket, use the BucketClass to pointing the required object store and then define BucketClaim request as below:

kind: BucketClaim
apiVersion: objectstorage.k8s.io/v1alpha1
metadata:
  name: sample-bc
  namespace: default # any namespace can be used
spec:
  bucketClassName: sample-bcc
  protocols:
    - s3
kubectl create -f bucketclaim.yaml

Bucket Access

Define access to the bucket by creating the BucketAccess resource:

kind: BucketAccess
apiVersion: objectstorage.k8s.io/v1alpha1
metadata:
  name: sample-access
  namespace: default # any namespace can be used
spec:
  bucketAccessClassName: sample-bac
  bucketClaimName: sample-bc
  protocol: s3
  # Change to the name of the secret where access details are stored
  credentialsSecretName: sample-secret-name
kubectl create -f bucketaccess.yaml

The secret will be created which contains the access details for the bucket in JSON format in the namespace of BucketAccess:

kubectl get secret sample-secret-name -o jsonpath='{.data.BucketInfo}' | base64 -d
{
  "metadata": {
    "name": "bc-81733d1a-ac7a-4759-96f3-fbcc07c0cee9",
    "creationTimestamp": null
  },
  "spec": {
    "bucketName": "sample-bcc1fc94b04-6011-45e0-a3d8-b6a093055783",
    "authenticationType": "KEY",
    "secretS3": {
      "endpoint": "http://rook-ceph-rgw-my-store.rook-ceph.svc:80",
      "region": "us-east",
      "accessKeyID": "LI2LES8QMR9GB5SZLB02",
      "accessSecretKey": "s0WAmcn8N1eIBgNV0mjCwZWQmJiCF4B0SAzbhYCL"
    },
    "secretAzure": null,
    "protocols": [
      "s3"
    ]
  }
}

Consuming the Bucket via secret

To access the bucket from an application pod, mount the secret for accessing the bucket:

  volumes:
  - name: cosi-secrets
    secret:
      #  Set the name of the secret from the BucketAccess
      secretName: sample-secret-name
  spec:
    containers:
    - name: sample-app
      volumeMounts:
      - name: cosi-secrets
        mountPath: /data/cosi

The Secret will be mounted in the pod in the path: /data/cosi/BucketInfo. The app must parse the JSON object to load the bucket connection details.
