From 60a324413d23e2c74867143294cce79edd1f0b80 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jacob Repp Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2025 22:51:02 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] Add MEMO-035 for Nomad local development setup with production-like orchestration MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit User request: "let's make a nomad setup memo - look at the current local binary testing setup and think about how to convert it to nomad - we still want it to be easy to run" Created comprehensive Nomad setup guide covering: 1. **Why Nomad for Local Development** - Production parity (same orchestrator dev ā†’ prod) - Automatic supervision, health checks, service discovery - Resource limits, restart policies, rolling deployments - Comparison table: prismctl local vs prismctl nomad 2. **Easy-to-Use Wrapper: prismctl nomad** - `prismctl nomad start` - One-command stack startup - `prismctl nomad status` - Job and allocation status - `prismctl nomad logs ` - View task logs - `prismctl nomad ui` - Open Nomad web UI - `prismctl nomad stop` - Clean shutdown 3. **Nomad Job Specifications** - Complete job spec with 3 groups (admin, launcher, keyvalue) - Resource limits (CPU/memory), health checks, restart policies - Service discovery via Consul integration - Alternative Docker-based job spec for containers 4. **Implementation Guide** - Install instructions (macOS, Linux) - Job file structure and syntax - Go code for prismctl nomad command wrapper - Service dependency handling with templates 5. **Advanced Features** - Rolling deployments with auto-revert - Canary deployments for gradual rollouts - Multi-region setup for distributed deployments - Vault integration for secrets management 6. **Migration Path** - Phase 1: Hybrid (both local and nomad) - Phase 2: Nomad by default - Phase 3: Production deployment with same job files 7. **Troubleshooting Guide** - Nomad not starting, job allocation failures - Consul service discovery issues - Health check failures, resource constraints - Performance tuning recommendations Key design goals: - Maintain same ease of use as prismctl local start - Enable production-like orchestration locally - Support smooth migration from direct process execution - Provide path from dev ā†’ staging ā†’ production Benefits over current setup: - Automatic process supervision and restart - Built-in health checks and service discovery - Resource isolation and limits - Rolling deployments and canary releases - Better matches production environment šŸ¤– Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude --- .../MEMO-035-nomad-local-development-setup.md | 1106 +++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 1106 insertions(+) create mode 100644 docs-cms/memos/MEMO-035-nomad-local-development-setup.md diff --git a/docs-cms/memos/MEMO-035-nomad-local-development-setup.md b/docs-cms/memos/MEMO-035-nomad-local-development-setup.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..f5ed396eb --- /dev/null +++ b/docs-cms/memos/MEMO-035-nomad-local-development-setup.md @@ -0,0 +1,1106 @@ +--- +author: Platform Team +created: 2025-10-16 +doc_uuid: 8f3a2c1d-4b7e-4f8a-9d2e-5c6f7a8b9c0d +id: memo-035 +project_id: prism-data-layer +tags: +- nomad +- orchestration +- local-development +- deployment +- containers +- hashicorp +title: Nomad Local Development Setup for Prism Stack +updated: 2025-10-16 +--- + +# MEMO-035: Nomad Local Development Setup for Prism Stack + +## Purpose + +Convert the current local binary testing setup (`prismctl local start`) to HashiCorp Nomad while maintaining the same ease of use, enabling developers to run the full Prism stack with production-like orchestration locally. + +## Context + +### Current Local Setup + +The existing `prismctl local start` command (see `cmd/prismctl/cmd/local.go`) runs: + +1. **prism-admin** on `:8981` (admin control plane) +2. **pattern-launcher** on `:7070` (pattern lifecycle manager) +3. **keyvalue-runner** (KeyValue pattern with MemStore backend) + +**Current Characteristics**: +- Direct process execution from `build/binaries/` +- PID file management for process tracking +- Log files in `build/logs/` +- Health check polling (100ms intervals) +- Sequential startup with dependency ordering +- Simple commands: `start`, `stop`, `status`, `logs` + +### Why Nomad?

Auto-Installer (`prismctl dev init`) - -**Zero manual steps.** The CLI handles everything: - -```go -// cmd/prismctl/cmd/dev_init.go -package cmd - -import ( - "fmt" - "os" - "os/exec" - "runtime" - - "github.com/charmbracelet/bubbles/spinner" - tea "github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea" -) - -type installer struct { - steps []InstallStep - current int - spinner spinner.Model -} - -type InstallStep struct { - Name string - Command func() error - Optional bool -} - -func runAutoInstaller() error { - steps := []InstallStep{ - {Name: "Checking Nomad", Command: checkOrInstallNomad}, - {Name: "Checking Consul", Command: checkOrInstallConsul}, - {Name: "Checking Podman", Command: checkOrInstallPodman}, - {Name: "Creating config directory", Command: initConfigDir}, - {Name: "Downloading service catalog", Command: downloadServiceCatalog}, - } - - // Run with beautiful TUI - p := tea.NewProgram(newInstaller(steps)) - return p.Start() -} - -func checkOrInstallNomad() error { - if _, err := exec.LookPath("nomad"); err == nil { - return nil // Already installed - } - - switch runtime.GOOS { - case "darwin": - return exec.Command("brew", "install", "hashicorp/tap/nomad").Run() - case "linux": - return installNomadLinux() - default: - return fmt.Errorf("unsupported platform: %s", runtime.GOOS) - } -} -``` - -**What it does**: -1. Detects missing dependencies (Nomad, Consul, Podman) -2. Auto-installs via system package manager -3. Creates `~/.prism/` config directory -4. Downloads service catalog and presets -5. Validates everything works - -**Run once, forget forever.** - -### 2. Interactive Service Picker (`prismctl dev start`) - -**The fun part.** TUI-based service selection with live preview: - -```go -// cmd/prismctl/cmd/dev_start.go -package cmd - -import ( - "github.com/charmbracelet/bubbles/list" - "github.com/charmbracelet/lipgloss" - tea "github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea" -) - -type servicePickerModel struct { - list list.Model - selected map[string]bool - preset string -} - -func (m servicePickerModel) View() string { - var doc strings.Builder - - // Header - title := titleStyle.Render("šŸš€ Prism Stack Builder") - doc.WriteString(title + "\n\n") - - // Service list with checkboxes - doc.WriteString(m.list.View()) - doc.WriteString("\n\n") - - // Live preview of what will start - preview := previewStyle.Render(m.generatePreview()) - doc.WriteString(preview) - doc.WriteString("\n\n") - - // Help text - help := helpStyle.Render("space: toggle ā€¢ enter: start ā€¢ s: save profile ā€¢ q: quit") - doc.WriteString(help) - - return doc.String() -} - -func (m servicePickerModel) generatePreview() string { - var services []string - for name, enabled := range m.selected { - if enabled { - services = append(services, name) - } - } - - return fmt.Sprintf(` -Will start: - Core: %s - Backends: %s - Messaging: %s - -Estimated startup: %s -Memory required: %s -`, - formatServices(services, "core"), - formatServices(services, "backend"), - formatServices(services, "messaging"), - estimateStartupTime(services), - estimateMemoryUsage(services), - ) -} -``` - -**Experience**: -```text -šŸš€ Prism Stack Builder - -ā”Œā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā” -ā”‚ [āœ“] prism-admin (required) ā”‚ -ā”‚ [āœ“] pattern-launcher (required) ā”‚ -ā”‚ [āœ“] memstore (default) ā”‚ -ā”‚ [ ] redis 6379 ā”‚ -ā”‚ [ ] postgres 5432 ā”‚ -ā”‚ [ ] nats 4222 ā”‚ -ā”‚ [ ] kafka 9092 ā”‚ -ā””ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”€ā”˜ - -Preview: - Core: admin, launcher - Backends: memstore - Messaging: (none) - -Estimated startup: 8 seconds -Memory required: 512 MB - -space: toggle ā€¢ enter: start ā€¢ s: save profile ā€¢ q: quit -``` - -**Smart defaults**: -- Core services always selected -- MemStore selected by default (fastest) -- Container services show memory requirements -- Real-time startup time estimation - -### 3.
