librados 简介¶
The Ceph Storage Cluster provides the basic storage service that allows
Ceph to uniquely deliver object, block, and file storage in one
unified system. However, you are not limited to using the RESTful, block, or
POSIX interfaces. Based upon RADOS, the librados API enables you to create your own interface to the
Ceph Storage Cluster.
The librados API enables you to interact with the two types of daemons in
the Ceph Storage Cluster:
The Ceph Monitor, which maintains a master copy of the cluster map.
The Ceph OSD Daemon (OSD), which stores data as objects on a storage node.
This guide provides a high-level introduction to using librados.
Refer to 体系结构 for additional details of the Ceph
Storage Cluster. To use the API, you need a running Ceph Storage Cluster.
See Installation (Quick) for details.
第一步：获取 librados¶
你的客户端应用必须绑定 librados 才能连接 Ceph 存储集群。在写使用 librados 的应用程序前，要安装 librados 及其他依赖包。 librados API 本身是用 C++ 实现的，另外有 C 、 Python 、 Java 和 PHP 绑定。
Getting librados for C/C++¶
To install librados development support files for C/C++ on Debian/Ubuntu
distributions, execute the following:
sudo apt-get install librados-dev
To install librados development support files for C/C++ on RHEL/CentOS
distributions, execute the following:
sudo yum install librados2-devel
Once you install librados for developers, you can find the required
headers for C/C++ under /usr/include/rados.
ls /usr/include/rados
获取 librados 的 Python 支持¶
rados 模块为 Python 应用提供了 librados 支持。在
Debian/Ubuntu 下软件包名为 librados-dev ，在 RHEL/CentOS
下是 librados2-devel ，它们包含了 python-rados 包。你也可以直接安装 python-rados 。
要在 Debian/Ubuntu 发行版上安装 librados 的 Python 开发支持文件，用此命令：
sudo apt-get install python-rados
要在 RHEL/CentOS 发行版上安装 librados 的 Python 开发支持文件，用此命令：
sudo yum install python-rados
此模块在 Debian 风格的系统上安装到了 /usr/share/pyshared ，在 CentOS/RHEL 系统上安装到了 /usr/lib/python*/site-packages 。
获取 librados 的 Java 支持¶
要安装 librados 的 Java 支持，你需要执行下列步骤：
安装
jna.jar。在 Debian/Ubuntu 系统下应执行：sudo apt-get install libjna-java
在 CentOS/RHEL 下应执行：
sudo yum install jna
JAR 文件位于
/usr/share/java。克隆
rados-java软件库：git clone --recursive https://github.com/ceph/rados-java.git
构建
rados-java软件库：cd rados-java ant
JAR 文件位于
rados-java/target。把 RADOS 的 JAR 文件复制到统一位置（如
/usr/share/java），并确保它和 JNA JAR 都位于 JVM 的类路径里。例如：sudo cp target/rados-0.1.3.jar /usr/share/java/rados-0.1.3.jar sudo ln -s /usr/share/java/jna-3.2.7.jar /usr/lib/jvm/default-java/jre/lib/ext/jna-3.2.7.jar sudo ln -s /usr/share/java/rados-0.1.3.jar /usr/lib/jvm/default-java/jre/lib/ext/rados-0.1.3.jar
要编译文档，用下列命令：
ant docs
获取 librados 的 PHP 绑定¶
要安装 librados 的 PHP 扩展，可按如下步骤：
安装 php-dev ，在 Debian/Ubuntu 下应该执行：
sudo apt-get install php5-dev build-essential
在 CentOS/RHEL 下应该执行：
sudo yum install php-devel
克隆
phprados源码库：git clone https://github.com/ceph/phprados.git
构建
phprados:cd phprados phpize ./configure make sudo make install
把下列配置加入 php.ini 以启用
phprados:extension=rados.so
第二步：配置集群句柄¶
A Ceph Client, via librados, interacts directly with OSDs to store
and retrieve data. To interact with OSDs, the client app must invoke
librados and connect to a Ceph Monitor. Once connected, librados
retrieves the Cluster Map from the Ceph Monitor. When the client app
wants to read or write data, it creates an I/O context and binds to a
pool. The pool has an associated CRUSH Rule that defines how it
will place data in the storage cluster. Via the I/O context, the client
provides the object name to librados, which takes the object name
and the cluster map (i.e., the topology of the cluster) and computes the
placement group and OSD for locating the data. Then the client application
can read or write data. The client app doesn’t need to learn about the topology
of the cluster directly.
The Ceph Storage Cluster handle encapsulates the client configuration, including:
The user ID for
rados_create()or user name forrados_create2()(preferred).The cephx authentication key
The monitor ID and IP address
Logging levels
Debugging levels
Thus, the first steps in using the cluster from your app are to 1) create a cluster handle that your app will use to connect to the storage cluster, and then 2) use that handle to connect. To connect to the cluster, the app must supply a monitor address, a username and an authentication key (cephx is enabled by default).
Tip
Talking to different Ceph Storage Clusters – or to the same cluster with different users – requires different cluster handles.
RADOS provides a number of ways for you to set the required values. For
the monitor and encryption key settings, an easy way to handle them is to ensure
that your Ceph configuration file contains a keyring path to a keyring file
and at least one monitor address (e.g,. mon host). For example:
[global]
mon host = 192.168.1.1
keyring = /etc/ceph/ceph.client.admin.keyring
Once you create the handle, you can read a Ceph configuration file to configure
the handle. You can also pass arguments to your app and parse them with the
function for parsing command line arguments (e.g., rados_conf_parse_argv()),
or parse Ceph environment variables (e.g., rados_conf_parse_env()). Some
wrappers may not implement convenience methods, so you may need to implement
these capabilities. The following diagram provides a high-level flow for the
initial connection.
Once connected, your app can invoke functions that affect the whole cluster with only the cluster handle. For example, once you have a cluster handle, you can:
Get cluster statistics
Use Pool Operation (exists, create, list, delete)
Get and set the configuration
One of the powerful features of Ceph is the ability to bind to different pools. Each pool may have a different number of placement groups, object replicas and replication strategies. For example, a pool could be set up as a “hot” pool that uses SSDs for frequently used objects or a “cold” pool that uses erasure coding.
The main difference in the various librados bindings is between C and
the object-oriented bindings for C++, Java and Python. The object-oriented
bindings use objects to represent cluster handles, IO Contexts, iterators,
exceptions, etc.
C Example¶
For C, creating a simple cluster handle using the admin user, configuring
it and connecting to the cluster might look something like this:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <rados/librados.h>
int main (int argc, const char **argv)
{
/* Declare the cluster handle and required arguments. */
rados_t cluster;
char cluster_name[] = "ceph";
char user_name[] = "client.admin";
uint64_t flags = 0;
/* Initialize the cluster handle with the "ceph" cluster name and the "client.admin" user */
int err;
err = rados_create2(&cluster, cluster_name, user_name, flags);
if (err < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s: Couldn't create the cluster handle! %s\n", argv[0], strerror(-err));
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} else {
printf("\nCreated a cluster handle.\n");
}
/* Read a Ceph configuration file to configure the cluster handle. */
err = rados_conf_read_file(cluster, "/etc/ceph/ceph.conf");
if (err < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s: cannot read config file: %s\n", argv[0], strerror(-err));
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} else {
printf("\nRead the config file.\n");
}
/* Read command line arguments */
err = rados_conf_parse_argv(cluster, argc, argv);
if (err < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s: cannot parse command line arguments: %s\n", argv[0], strerror(-err));
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} else {
printf("\nRead the command line arguments.\n");
}
/* Connect to the cluster */
err = rados_connect(cluster);
if (err < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s: cannot connect to cluster: %s\n", argv[0], strerror(-err));
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} else {
printf("\nConnected to the cluster.\n");
}
}
Compile your client and link to librados using -lrados. For example:
gcc ceph-client.c -lrados -o ceph-client
C++ Example¶
The Ceph project provides a C++ example in the ceph/examples/librados
directory. For C++, a simple cluster handle using the admin user requires
you to initialize a librados::Rados cluster handle object:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <rados/librados.hpp>
int main(int argc, const char **argv)
{
int ret = 0;
/* Declare the cluster handle and required variables. */
librados::Rados cluster;
char cluster_name[] = "ceph";
char user_name[] = "client.admin";
uint64_t flags = 0;
/* Initialize the cluster handle with the "ceph" cluster name and "client.admin" user */
{
ret = cluster.init2(user_name, cluster_name, flags);
if (ret < 0) {
std::cerr << "Couldn't initialize the cluster handle! error " << ret << std::endl;
return EXIT_FAILURE;
} else {
std::cout << "Created a cluster handle." << std::endl;
}
}
/* Read a Ceph configuration file to configure the cluster handle. */
{
ret = cluster.conf_read_file("/etc/ceph/ceph.conf");
if (ret < 0) {
std::cerr << "Couldn't read the Ceph configuration file! error " << ret << std::endl;
return EXIT_FAILURE;
} else {
std::cout << "Read the Ceph configuration file." << std::endl;
}
}
/* Read command line arguments */
{
ret = cluster.conf_parse_argv(argc, argv);
if (ret < 0) {
std::cerr << "Couldn't parse command line options! error " << ret << std::endl;
return EXIT_FAILURE;
} else {
std::cout << "Parsed command line options." << std::endl;
}
}
/* Connect to the cluster */
{
ret = cluster.connect();
if (ret < 0) {
std::cerr << "Couldn't connect to cluster! error " << ret << std::endl;
return EXIT_FAILURE;
} else {
std::cout << "Connected to the cluster." << std::endl;
}
}
return 0;
}
Compile the source; then, link librados using -lrados.
For example:
g++ -g -c ceph-client.cc -o ceph-client.o
g++ -g ceph-client.o -lrados -o ceph-client
Python Example¶
Python uses the admin id and the ceph cluster name by default, and
will read the standard ceph.conf file if the conffile parameter is
set to the empty string. The Python binding converts C++ errors
into exceptions.
import rados
try:
cluster = rados.Rados(conffile='')
except TypeError as e:
print 'Argument validation error: ', e
raise e
print "Created cluster handle."
try:
cluster.connect()
except Exception as e:
print "connection error: ", e
raise e
finally:
print "Connected to the cluster."
Execute the example to verify that it connects to your cluster.
python ceph-client.py
Java Example¶
Java requires you to specify the user ID (admin) or user name
(client.admin), and uses the ceph cluster name by default . The Java
binding converts C++-based errors into exceptions.
import com.ceph.rados.Rados;
import com.ceph.rados.RadosException;
import java.io.File;
public class CephClient {
public static void main (String args[]){
try {
Rados cluster = new Rados("admin");
System.out.println("Created cluster handle.");
File f = new File("/etc/ceph/ceph.conf");
cluster.confReadFile(f);
System.out.println("Read the configuration file.");
cluster.connect();
System.out.println("Connected to the cluster.");
} catch (RadosException e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage() + ": " + e.getReturnValue());
}
}
}
Compile the source; then, run it. If you have copied the JAR to
/usr/share/java and sym linked from your ext directory, you won’t need
to specify the classpath. For example:
javac CephClient.java
java CephClient
PHP 实例¶
在启用了 RADOS 扩展的 PHP 上，新建集群句柄非常简单：
<?php
$r = rados_create();
rados_conf_read_file($r, '/etc/ceph/ceph.conf');
if (!rados_connect($r)) {
echo "Failed to connect to Ceph cluster";
} else {
echo "Successfully connected to Ceph cluster";
}
把上述内容保存为 rados.php 并运行：
php rados.php
Step 3: Creating an I/O Context¶
Once your app has a cluster handle and a connection to a Ceph Storage Cluster, you may create an I/O Context and begin reading and writing data. An I/O Context binds the connection to a specific pool. The user must have appropriate CAPS permissions to access the specified pool. For example, a user with read access but not write access will only be able to read data. I/O Context functionality includes:
Write/read data and extended attributes
List and iterate over objects and extended attributes
Snapshot pools, list snapshots, etc.
RADOS enables you to interact both synchronously and asynchronously. Once your
app has an I/O Context, read/write operations only require you to know the
object/xattr name. The CRUSH algorithm encapsulated in librados uses the
cluster map to identify the appropriate OSD. OSD daemons handle the replication,
as described in Smart Daemons Enable Hyperscale. The librados library also
maps objects to placement groups, as described in Calculating PG IDs.
The following examples use the default data pool. However, you may also
use the API to list pools, ensure they exist, or create and delete pools. For
the write operations, the examples illustrate how to use synchronous mode. For
the read operations, the examples illustrate how to use asynchronous mode.
Important
Use caution when deleting pools with this API. If you delete a pool, the pool and ALL DATA in the pool will be lost.

Step 4: Closing Sessions¶
Once your app finishes with the I/O Context and cluster handle, the app should close the connection and shutdown the handle. For asynchronous I/O, the app should also ensure that pending asynchronous operations have completed.
C Example¶
rados_ioctx_destroy(io);
rados_shutdown(cluster);
C++ Example¶
io_ctx.close();
cluster.shutdown();
Java Example¶
cluster.ioCtxDestroy(io);
cluster.shutDown();
Python Example¶
print "\nClosing the connection."
ioctx.close()
print "Shutting down the handle."
cluster.shutdown()
PHP 实例¶
rados_shutdown($r);
