Introduction

Ethereum Swarm Beekeeper is tool used for orchestrating cluster of Ethereum Swarm Bee and running integration tests and simulations against it in the Kubernetes.

Requirements

Installation

make binary
cp dist/beekeeper /usr/local/bin/beekeeper

Run unit tests

Runs available unit tests in pkg folder

make test

Configuration

Beekeeper is configured with:

  • config file - sets Beekeeper's internals, and
  • config directory - sets Bee cluster configuration, checks and simulations

Config file

Config file is used to set Beekeeper internals:

  • config directory location
  • Kubernetes client
  • Swap client

Default location for config file is: $HOME/.beekeeper.yaml

Location can also be set with --config flag.

example:

config-dir: <user home dir>/.beekeeper/
config-git-repo: ""
config-git-branch: main
config-git-username: <GitHub username>
config-git-password: <GitHub Personal Access Token>
enable-k8s: true
in-cluster: false
kubeconfig: "~/.kube/config"
geth-url: http://geth-swap.geth-swap.dai.internal
bzz-token-address: 0x6aab14fe9cccd64a502d23842d916eb5321c26e7 
eth-account: 0x62cab2b3b55f341f10348720ca18063cdb779ad5
log-verbosity: "info"
loki-endpoint: http://loki.testnet.internal/loki/api/v1/push

Beekeeper reads config-dir from a local machine by default, but it also supports reading config-dir from a Git repo. If field config-git-repo is set, it will override config-dir and configuration will be read from a Git repo.

If config-dir is kept in a Git repo, field config-git-repo should point to it, along with config-git-branch specifying proper branch. Fields config-git-username and config-git-password can be set when repo is private.

Official GitHub repository with Beekeeper's configuration is https://github.com/ethersphere/beekeeper-config

NOTE: command flags can be also set through the config file

Config directory

Config directory is used to group configuration (.yaml) files describing:

  • Bee cluster setup in Kubernetes
  • checks (integration tests), and
  • simulations

Default location for config dir is: $HOME/.beekeeper/

Location can also be set with --config-dir flag.

Examples of .yaml files can be found in the Beekeeper repo.

Config dir's .yaml files have several main blocks:

  • clusters - defines clusters Beekeeper works with
  • node-groups - defines Bee node groups that are part of the cluster. Node group is a collection of Bee nodes sharing same configuration parameters.
  • bee-configs - defines Bee configuration that can be assigned to node-groups
  • checks - defines checks Beekeeper can execute against the cluster
  • simulations - defines simulations Beekeeper can execute against the cluster
  • stages - defines stages for dynamic execution of checks and simulations

Inheritance

Inheritance can be set through the field _inherit.

Clusters, node-groups and bee-configs blocks support inheritance.

example:

bee-configs:
  light-node:
    _inherit: default
    full-node: false

This setting means that light-node bee-config will inherit all parameters from the default bee-config, overriding only full-node parameter.

Action types

Action types can be set in every check or simulation definition.

Action types allow defining same check or simulation with different parameters.

example:

checks:
  pushsync-chunks:
    options:
      chunks-per-node: 1
      metrics-enabled:
      mode: chunks
      postage-amount: 1000
      postage-depth: 16
      postage-wait: 5s
      retries: 5
      retry-delay: 1s
      upload-node-count: 1
    timeout: 5m
    type: pushsync
  pushsync-light-chunks:
    options:
      chunks-per-node: 1
      metrics-enabled:
      mode: light-chunks
      postage-amount: 1000
      postage-depth: 16
      postage-wait: 5s
      retries: 5
      retry-delay: 1s
      upload-node-count: 1
    timeout: 5m
    type: pushsync

This setting means that pushsync check can be executed choosing pushsync-chunks or pushsync-light-chunks variation.
