+# Local Persistent Volume Helm chart
+
+## Introduction
+
+The `local-persistent-volume` helm chart is a utility helm chart. It was
+created mainly to persist the `xos-core` DB data but this helm can be used
+to persist any data.
+
+It uses a relatively new kubernetes feature (it's a beta feature
+in Kubernetes 1.10.x) that allows us to define an independent persistent
+store in a kubernetes cluster.
+
+The helm chart mainly consists of the following kubernetes resources:
+
+- A storage class resource representing a local persistent volume
+- A persistent volume resource associated with the storage class and a specific directory on a specific node
+- A persistent volume claim resource that claims certain portion of the persistent volume on behalf of a pod
+
+The following variables are configurable in the helm chart:
+
+- `storageClassName`: The name of the storage class resource
+- `persistentVolumeName`: The name of the persistent volume resource
+- `pvClaimName`: The name of the persistent volume claim resource
+- `volumeHostName`: The name of the kubernetes node on which the data will be persisted
+- `hostLocalPath`: The directory or volume mount path on the chosen chosen node where data will be persisted
+- `pvStorageCapacity`: The capacity of the volume available to the persistent volume resource (e.g. 10Gi)
+
+Note: For this helm chart to work, the volume mount path or directory specified in the `hostLocalPath` variable needs to exist before the helm chart is deployed.
+
+## Standard Install
+
+```shell
+helm install -n local-store local-persistent-volume
+```
+
+## Standard Uninstall
+
+```shell
+helm delete --purge local-store
+```

+# Synchronizer Hello World
+
+If you're looking at your first experience in writing an XOS synchronizer,
+you are in the right place! Let's start with the basics.
+
+## What do you need?
+
+In order to complete this tutorial you need to have few tools installed on
+your system:
+
+- A Kubernetes environment, I'll suggest to use [Minikube](../../../prereqs/k8s-single-node.md#standard-minikube-installation-vm-support)
+- Python 2.7 (to verify you can just run `python --version` in a terminal)
+- A text editor / IDE of your choice
+
+> Before getting started with this tutorial you may find that
+> [Defining Models in CORD](../../../xos/README.md) contains interesting informations
+> about the Synchronizers concepts and modeling in general.
+
+## What we'll cover in this tutorial?
+
+This exercise does not pretend to be an extensive guide on the synchronizer,
+it's only purpose is to guide you through the most common use case:
+defining a synchronization step for a single model.
+
+In particular we'll look at how to:
+
+- Define models in XOS
+- Load the models in the core
+- Create an example TOSCA recipe to create those models
+- Write a sync_step for those models
+- Write unit tests for that sync step
+
+## Preparation
+
+### Setting up your development environment
+
+Before getting started you'll need to have [Minikube](../../../prereqs/k8s-single-node.md#standard-minikube-installation-vm-support)
+installed. From this point onward we assume you are able to run commands this
+two commands on your laptop without errors:
+
+```shell
+helm list
+kubectl get pods
+```
+
+For simplicity sake we also assume that you have the source code checked out
+under `~/cord`. You can follow this [guide](../../getting_the_code.md) to get it.
+
+### xos-core deployment
+
+In order to execute our synchronizer, we need to have the xos-core chart deployed.
+You can follow this guide to deploy it, and once done you should be able to see
+this containers running:
+
+```shell
+$ kubectl get pods
+
+NAME                             READY     STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
+xos-chameleon-6fb76d5689-s7vxb   1/1       Running   0          21h
+xos-core-58bcf4f477-79hs7        1/1       Running   0          21h
+xos-db-566dd8c6f9-l24h5          1/1       Running   0          21h
+xos-gui-665c5f85bc-kdmbm         1/1       Running   0          21h
+xos-redis-5cf77fd49f-fcw5h       1/1       Running   0          21h
+xos-tosca-69588f677c-77lll       1/1       Running   0          20h
+xos-ws-748c7f9f75-cnjnh          1/1       Running   0          21h
+```
+
+### Synchronizer location and folder structure
+
+XOS Services are located under `~/cord/orchestration/xos_services`.
+
+We need to create a folder to store our synchronizer code, and that is generally
+called with the same name of the synchronizer.
+We are going to create a new folder called `hello-world` in there.
+
+```shell
+cd ~/cord/orchestration/xos_services
+mkdir hello-world && cd hello-world
+```
+
+A synchronizer repository has traditionally this structure:
+
+```shell
+hello-world
+├── Dockerfile.synchronizer
+├── VERSION
+├── samples
+│.  └── hello-world.yaml
+└── xos
+  ├── synchronizer
+  │   ├── config.yaml
+  │   ├── hello-world-synchronizer.py
+  │   ├── models
+  │   │   └── hello-world.xproto
+  │   ├── steps
+  │   │   ├── sync_hello_world_service.py
+  │   │   ├── sync_hello_world_service_instance.py
+  │   │   ├── test_sync_hello_world_service.py
+  │   │   └── test_sync_hello_world_service_instance.py
+  │   └── test_config.yaml
+  └── unittest.cfg
+```
+
+We'll get to the test configuration later on, so let's leave that on the side
+for now. But let's go trough the other folders:
+
+- the `Dockerfile.synchronizer` contains the definition of the docker image we'll build in order to run the synchronizer
+- the `VERSION` file contains the version of our code, it is reported to the core
+- the `xos/synchronizer` contains all of out code and will be bundled in the docker image
+
+And the files:
+
+- `samples/hello-world.yaml` is an example of a TOSCA recipe to operate those models
+- `xos/synchronizer/hello-world-synchronizer.py` is main synchronizer process
+- `xos/synchronizer/models/hello-world.xproto` contains the models definition
+- `xos/synchronizer/steps/sync_hello_world_service.py` contains the operations that need to be performed to synchronize the backend
+
+### Creating the synchronizer entry point
+
+The synchronizer entry point is a pretty standard file that is responsible to:
+
+- load the synchronizer configuration
+- load and run the synchronizer framework
+
+Add this content to the `hello-world-synchronizer.py` file:
+
+```python
+import importlib
+import os
+import sys
+from xosconfig import Config
+
+config_file = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) + '/config.yaml')
+Config.init(config_file, 'synchronizer-config-schema.yaml')
+
+observer_path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)),"../../synchronizers/new_base")
+sys.path.append(observer_path)
+mod = importlib.import_module("xos-synchronizer")
+mod.main()
+```
+
+### Defining the synchronizer configuration
+
+In `xos/synchronizer/config.yaml` add this content:
+
+```yaml
+name: hello-world
+accessor:
+  username: admin@opencord.org
+  password: letmein
+  endpoint: xos-core:50051
+models_dir: "/opt/xos/synchronizers/hello-world/models"
+steps_dir: "/opt/xos/synchronizers/hello-world/steps"
+required_models:
+  - HelloWorldService
+  - HelloWorldServiceInstance
+logging:
+  version: 1
+  handlers:
+    console:
+      class: logging.StreamHandler
+  loggers:
+    'multistructlog':
+      handlers:
+          - console
+      level: DEBUG
+```
+
+## Defining models in CORD
+
+If you are not familiar with the CORD modeling language, called `xProto`,
+I suggest you to start from the [Modeling Guide](../../../xos/README.md)
+
+We are going to define the two most common models for any synchronizer:
+`HelloWorldService` and `HelloWorldServiceInstance`.
+You can take a look [here](../../../xos/core_models.md#model-glossary)
+if you want to refresh the difference between the two, but in short:
+
+- `Service` models contains service specific details
+- `ServiceInstance` models contains subscriber specific details for that service.
+
+To define your models, open the `hello-world.xproto` file and add this content:
+
+```text
+option name = "hello-world";
+option app_label = "hello-world";
+
+message HelloWorldService (Service){
+    required string hello_from = 1 [help_text = "The name of who is saying hello", null = False, db_index = False, blank = False];
+}
+
+message HelloWorldServiceInstance (ServiceInstance){
+    option owner_class_name="HelloWorldService";
+    required string hello_to = 1 [help_text = "The name of who is being greeted", null = False, db_index = False, blank = False];
+}
+```
+
+This will create two models, `HelloWorldService` that extends the `Service` model,
+and `HelloWorldServiceInstance` that extends `ServiceInstance` models.
+Both of this model will inherit the attributes defined in the parent classes,
+you can see what they are in the [core.xproto](https://github.com/opencord/xos/blob/master/xos/core/models/core.xproto) file.
+
+## Load models in the core
+
+Service models are pushed to the core trough a mecanism that is called `dynamic onboarding`
+or `dynamic loading`. In practice when a synchronizer container runs, the first thing it does
+after establishing a connection, is to push its models to the core container.
+
+So the first step we need to take is to build and deploy our synchronizer container
+in the test environment.
+
+### Building the synchronizer container
+
+We assume that you understand the Docker concepts of `container` and `image`,
+if not we strongly suggest to take a look here: [Docker concepts](https://docs.docker.com/get-started/#docker-concepts)
+
+The first thing we need to do is to define a `Dockerfile`,
+to do that open `Dockerfile.synchronizer` and add this content:
+
+```text
+FROM xosproject/xos-synchronizer-base:candidate
+
+COPY xos/synchronizer /opt/xos/synchronizers/hello-world
+COPY VERSION /opt/xos/synchronizers/hello-world/
+
+ENTRYPOINT []
+
+WORKDIR "/opt/xos/synchronizers/hello-world"
+
+CMD bash -c "python hello-world-synchronizer.py"
+```
+
+This file is used to build our synchronizer container image. As you noticed it
+inheriths `FROM xosproject/xos-synchronizer-base:candidate` so we'll need to obtain that image.
+
+We can use this commands:
+
+```shell
+eval $(minikube docker-env) # this will point our shell on the minikube docker daemon
+docker pull xosproject/xos-synchronizer-base:master
+docker tag xosproject/xos-synchronizer-base:master xosproject/xos-synchronizer-base:candidate
+```
+
+> To learn more about the usage of the `candidate` tag, please read on
+[Imagebuilder](../../../developer/imagebuilder.md)) but keep in mind that
+this is mostly a tool needed by platform developers when they need test API changes
+across multiple nested containers.
+
+Now we can build our synchronizer image by executing (from the `orchestration/xos_service/hello-world` directory):
+
+```shell
+eval $(minikube docker-env)
+docker build -t xosproject/hello-world-synchronizer:candidate -f Dockerfile.synchronizer .
+```
+
+### Run you synchronizer container
+
+You can create this simple Kubernetes resource in a file called `kb8s-hello-world.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Pod
+metadata:
+  name: hello-world-synchronizer
+spec:
+  containers:
+    - name: hello-world-synchronizer
+      image: xosproject/hello-world-synchronizer:candidate
+      volumeMounts:
+      - name: certchain-volume
+        mountPath: /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/local_certs.crt
+        subPath: config/ca_cert_chain.pem
+  volumes:
+    - name: certchain-volume
+      configMap:
+        name: ca-certificates
+        items:
+          - key: chain
+            path: config/ca_cert_chain.pem
+  restartPolicy: Never
+```
+
+and run it using `kubectl create -f kb8s-hello-world.yaml`
+
+You can check the logs of your synchronizer using:
+
+```shell
+kubetcl logs -f hello-world-synchronizer
+```
+
+This is the output you should see:
+```text
+Service version is 1.0.0.dev
+required_models, found:        models=HelloWorldService, HelloWorldServiceInstance
+Loading sync steps             step_dir=/opt/xos/synchronizers/hello-world/steps synchronizer_name=hello-world
+Loaded sync steps              steps=[] synchronizer_name=hello-world
+Skipping event engine due to no event_steps dir. synchronizer_name=hello-world
+Skipping model policies thread due to no model_policies dir. synchronizer_name=hello-world
+No sync steps, no policies, and no event steps. Synchronizer exiting. synchronizer_name=hello-world
+```
+
+and you can check that your models are onboarded in the XOS GUI.
+
+> To open the GUI you can execute `minikube service xos-gui` and the default
+> credentials are `admin@opencord.org/letmein`
+
+### Create TOSCA recipes to create you models
+
+The TOSCA engine expose the definition for the onboard model as they are generated
+from `xProto`. You can consult them at any time connecting to the TOSCA endpoint from
+a browser:
+
+```text
+http://<minikube-ip>:30007
+```
+
+> You can find the minikube ip by executing this command on your system:
+> `minikube ip`
+
+In this page you'll find a list of all the avilable resource, just search for
+`helloworldservice` and visit the corresponding page at:
+
+```text
+http://<minikube-ip>:30007/custom_type/helloworldservice
+```
+
+You'll see the TOSCA definition for the `HelloWorldService` model.
+
+You can use that (and the `HelloWorldServiceInstance` model definition too) to
+create an instance of both models. For your convenience it will look like this:
+
+Save this content to a file called `hello-world-tosca.yaml`
+```yaml
+tosca_definitions_version: tosca_simple_yaml_1_0
+imports:
+  - custom_types/helloworldservice.yaml
+  - custom_types/helloworldserviceinstance.yaml
+  - custom_types/servicegraphconstraint.yaml
+
+description: Create an instance of HelloWorldService and one of HelloWorldServiceInstance
+
+topology_template:
+  node_templates:
+
+    service:
+      type: tosca.nodes.HelloWorldService
+      properties:
+        name: HelloWorld
+        hello_from: Jhon Snow
+
+    serviceinstance:
+      type: tosca.nodes.HelloWorldServiceInstance
+      properties:
+        name: HelloWorld Service Instance
+        hello_to: Daenerys Targaryen
+
+    constraints:
+      type: tosca.nodes.ServiceGraphConstraint
+      properties:
+        constraints: '["HelloWorld"]'
+```
+
+This TOSCA will create an instance of your service and
+an instance of your service instance.
+
+> The `contraint` section is used only to define the position of the nodes
+> in the service graph. For more informations on that look [here](../../../xos-gui/developer/service_graph.md)
+> but it's really not important for the scope of this tutorial.
+
+You can submit this TOSCA using this command:
+
+```shell
+curl -H "xos-username: admin@opencord.org" -H "xos-password: letmein" -X POST --data-binary @hello-world-tosca.yaml http://<minikube-ip>:30007/run
+Created models: ['service', 'serviceinstance', 'serviceinstance']
+```
+
+Once this command has been executed you connect to the GUI at:
+
+```shell
+http://<minikube-ip>:30001
+```
+
+And see your models.
+
+> HINT: In the home page press the `Service Instances` button to display
+> `ServiceInstance` models, and the navigate to the `Hello World` sub menu to the left.
+
+## Create your first synchronizer steps
+
+At this point in the tutorial we assume we have an idea of what a synchronizer
+is, and what `sync_step`s are used for, but to refresh your mind,
+`sync_step` are the actual responsible to map changes in the XOS data model,
+to API calls in the component you want to manage.
+
+We are not going to write code that actually do something, as that is
+depending on the APIs that the target component expose, but we are going to
+demonstrate some basic concepts of the synchronizer framework.
+
+### A successful sync step
+
+Before moving forward, we can remove the container we just deployed using:
+
+```shell
+kubectl delete pod hello-world-synchronizer
+```
+
+To create the `sync_step` we'll have to create two files in `xos/synchronizer/sync_step`.
+
+The first one is to synchronize the `HelloWorldService` and it's called `sync_hello_world_service.py`.
+
+Every `sync_step` extends the `SyncStep` base class, and overrides two methods:
+
+- `sync_record`
+- `delete_record`
+
+Take a look here for a more complete [synchronizer reference](../../../xos/dev/sync_reference.md#sync-steps)
+
+Here is an example of `sync_step` that will only log changes on the `HelloWorldService` model:
+
+```python
+from synchronizers.new_base.SyncInstanceUsingAnsible import SyncStep 
+from synchronizers.new_base.modelaccessor import HelloWorldService 
+
+from xosconfig import Config 
+from multistructlog import create_logger 
+
+log = create_logger(Config().get('logging')) 
+
+class SyncHelloWorldService(SyncStep):
+    provides = [HelloWorldService]
+
+    observes = HelloWorldService
+
+    def sync_record(self, o):
+        log.info("HelloWorldService has been updated!", object=str(o), hello_from=o.hello_from)
+
+    def delete_record(self, o):
+        log.info("HelloWorldService has been deleted!", object=str(o), hello_from=o.hello_from)
+```
+
+Let's start deploying this first step and see what is happening.
+The first thing we'll need to do, is to rebuild out synchronizer container:
+
+```shell
+eval $(minikube docker-env)
+docker build -t xosproject/hello-world-synchronizer:candidate -f Dockerfile.synchronizer .
+```
+
+and then we need to start it again:
+
+```shell
+kubectl create -f kb8s-hello-world.yaml
+```
+
+At his point, running `kubectl logs -f hello-world-synchronizer` you should see
+that your synchronizer is not exiting anymore, but is looping waiting for changes
+in the models.
+
+Everytime you make a change to the model, you'll see that:
+
+- The event is logged in the synchronizer log (`kubectl logs -f hello-world-synchronizer`)
+- The `backend_code` and backend status of the model are updated
+- The model is not picked up by the synchronizer untill you make some chages to it
+
+When you make changes to the models (you can do this via the GUI or updating the TOSCA you created before)
+you will see a meeage similar to this one in the logs:
+
+```shell
+Syncing object                            model_name=HelloWorldService pk=1 synchronizer_name=hello-world thread_id=140152420452096
+HelloWorldService has been updated!       hello_from=u'Jhon Snow' object=HelloWorld
+Synced object                             model_name=HelloWorldService pk=1 synchronizer_name=hello-world thread_id=140152420452096
+```
+
+> Note that the `sync_record` method is triggered also when a model is created,
+> so as soon as you start the synchronizer you'll see the above message.
+
+If you delete the model, you'll see the `delete_record` method being invoked.
+
+### Handling errors in the sync steps
+
+In this case we are going to trigger an error, to demonstrare how the synchronizer
+framework is going to helo us in dealing with them.
+
+Let's start creating the `sync_step` for `HelloWorldServiceInstance` 
+in a file named `sync_hello_world_service.py`.
+
+```python
+from synchronizers.new_base.SyncInstanceUsingAnsible import SyncStep, DeferredException 
+from synchronizers.new_base.modelaccessor import HelloWorldServiceInstance 
+
+from xosconfig import Config 
+from multistructlog import create_logger 
+
+log = create_logger(Config().get('logging')) 
+
+class SyncHelloWorldServiceInstance(SyncStep):
+    provides = [HelloWorldServiceInstance]
+
+    observes = HelloWorldServiceInstance
+
+    def sync_record(self, o):
+        log.debug("HelloWorldServiceInstance has been updated!", object=str(o), hello_to=o.hello_to)
+
+        if o.hello_to == "Tyrion Lannister":
+          raise DeferredException("Maybe later")
+
+        if o.hello_to == "Joffrey Baratheon":
+          raise Exception("Maybe not")
+
+        log.info("%s is saying hello to %s" % (o.owner.leaf_model.hello_from, o.hello_to))
+
+    def delete_record(self, o):
+        log.debug("HelloWorldServiceInstance has been deleted!", object=str(o), hello_to=o.hello_to)
+```
+To run this code you'll need to:
+
+- delete the running container
+- rebuild the image
+- run the container again
+
+In this case we are emulating an error in our `sync_step`, in real life
+this can be caused by a connection error or malformed data or ... many reasons.
+
+Head to the GUI and start playing a little bit with the models!
+
+If you set the `HelloWorldServiceInstance.hello_to` property to `Tyrion Lannister`
+you'll see this keep popping up:
+
+```shell
+HelloWorldServiceInstance has been updated! hello_to=u'Tyrion Lannister' object=HelloWorld Service Instance
+sync step failed!              e=DeferredException('Maybe later',) model_name=HelloWorldServiceInstance pk=1 synchronizer_name=hello-world
+Traceback (most recent call last):
+  File "/opt/xos/synchronizers/new_base/event_loop.py", line 357, in sync_cohort
+    self.sync_record(o, log)
+  File "/opt/xos/synchronizers/new_base/event_loop.py", line 227, in sync_record

+  File "/opt/xos/synchronizers/hello-world/steps/sync_hello_world_service_instance.py", line 18, in sync_record
+    raise DeferredException("Maybe later")
+DeferredException: Maybe later
+```
+
+Here is what happens when an error succeds happens. The synchronizer framework will:
+
+- Log the exception
+- Set the `backend_code` of that instance to `2`
+- Set the `Exception` error in the `backend_status`
+- Keep retring
+
+> HINT: to see `backend_code` and `backend_status` in the GUI you can press `d`
+> to open the debug tab while looking at a model detail view.

+## Connect the Fabric Switches to ONOS
+
+If the switches are not already connected, ssh to each switch and configure */etc/ofagent/ofagent.conf* by uncommenting and editing the following line:
+
+```shell
+OPT_ARGS="-d 2 -c 2 -c 4 -t K8S_NODE_IP:31653 -i $DPID"
+```
+
+Then start ofagent by running
+
+```shell
+service ofagentd start
+```
+
+You can verify ONOS has recognized the devices using the following command:
+
+> NOTE: When prompted, use password `rocks`.
+
+```shell
+ssh -p 31101 onos@K8S_NODE_IP devices
+```
+
+> NOTE: It may take a few seconds for the switches to initialize and connect to ONOS
