今天我们来玩一下混沌工程的开源工具chaostoolkit 。

它的目标是提供一个免费，开放，社区驱动的工具集以及api。

 

官方源码链接：https://github.com/chaostoolkit/chaostoolkit

 

要想了解这个工具就必须知道混沌工程原则中提到的要点。如下所示：

记往这里提到的第一个要点，建立稳态假设。

 

在运行这个工具之前，我们先来看一下它的架构。

简单来解释一下，就是ChaosToolkit通过Drivers来操作你的被测系统。

它的功能点包括如下部分：

 

下面我们把工具装起来玩一下。

 

环境说明：CentOS7.8、k8s 1.19.5、示例应用

安装python3

sudo yum install python3 python3-venv

安装pipenv

gaolou@GaoMacPro ~ % pip3 install pipenv

安装chaos-toolkit 的k8s扩展和报告模块

pip3 install -U chaostoolkit
pip3 install -U chaostoolkit-kubernetes
pip3 install -U chaostoolkit-reporting

如果你需要操作其他平台，也可以安装相应扩展。

创建虚拟环境

python3 -m venv .bundler
source .bundler/bin/activate

为了不影响其他环境，我们这里用python的虚拟环境操作。

以上安装过程是在k8s的master机器上执行的，如果你不是在k8s上安装的，可以配置相应的k8s上下文，具体操作请参考：https://chaostoolkit.org/drivers/kubernetes/。

chaos discover 探索试验

首先执行discover命令，chaostoolkit会根据./kube/config中的内容生成discovery.json文件，这个文件中会包括所有可以对k8s执行的操作集合。执行成功的结果如下：

chaos init 生成试验

执行初始化命令，可以根据提示创建一个混沌试验。

(.bundler) [root@s5 chaostoolkit_scenarios]# chaos init
You are about to create an experiment.
This wizard will walk you through each step so that you can build
the best experiment for your needs.

An experiment is made up of three elements:
- a steady-state hypothesis [OPTIONAL]
- an experimental method
- a set of rollback activities [OPTIONAL]

Only the method is required. Also your experiment will
not run unless you define at least one activity (probe or action)
within it
Experiment's title: E2 #这里是配置一个试验名

A steady state hypothesis defines what 'normality' looks like in your system
The steady state hypothesis is a collection of conditions that are used,
at the beginning of an experiment, to decide if the system is in a recognised
'normal' state. The steady state conditions are then used again when your experiment
 is complete to detect where your system may have deviated in an interesting,
weakness-detecting way

Initially you may not know what your steady state hypothesis is
and so instead you might create an experiment without one
This is why the stead state hypothesis is optional.
Do you want to define a steady state hypothesis now? [y/N]: y # 创建稳态假说，请注意，这个是混沌工程中的重要概念，但是在其他的大部分混沌工具中都看不到这一步
Hypothesis's title: H2

You may now define probes that will determine
the steady-state of your system.
Add an activity
1) all_microservices_healthy
2) deployment_is_fully_available
3) deployment_is_not_fully_available
4) microservice_available_and_healthy
5) microservice_is_not_available

11) pods_in_phase
12) pods_not_in_phase
13) read_pod_logs
14) statefulset_fully_available
15) statefulset_not_fully_available

!!!DEPRECATED!!!
1) kill_microservice
2) remove_service_endpoint
Do you want to use this probe? [y/N]: y # 确定是否使用上面选择的探针

A steady-state probe requires a tolerance value, within which
your system is in a reognised `normal` state.

What is the tolerance for this probe?: normal

You now need to fill the arguments for this activity. Default
values will be shown between brackets. You may simply press return
to use it or not set any value.
Argument's value for 'ns' [default]: chaosnamespace # 输入k8s中要操作的命名空间
Do you want to select another activity? [y/N]: y # 是否选择一个的操作动作

Activity (0 to escape): 1 # 选择具体的动作

!!!DEPRECATED!!!
Do you want to use this probe? [y/N]: y # 确定使用上面选择的动作

You now need to fill the arguments for this activity. Default
values will be shown between brackets. You may simply press return
to use it or not set any value.
Argument's value for 'ns' [default]:
Do you want to select another activity? [y/N]: N # 是否要添加另一个试验动作，这里我不再添加了

An experiment's method contains actions and probes. Actions
vary real-world events in your system to determine if your
steady-state hypothesis is maintained when those events occur.

An experimental method can also contain probes to gather additional
information about your system as your method is executed.
Do you want to define an experimental method? [y/N]: y # 选择一个试验具体方法

从上面的结果可以看到，试验是执行成功的，几个redisPOD都被杀掉并被k8s拉起来了。

 

今天我们就写这一个试验，你可以根据同样的步骤去生成其他试验。
