* [sos] Add 'help' component for enhanced help informationJake Hunsaker2022-01-251-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit marks the beginning of the addition of a new `help` component for sos, which will be used to display more in-depth help information surrounding all the different components of sos. The command is intended to be invoked with a specific help topic in mind, that mirrors our project layout. E.G. to get help on the report component, a user would use `sos help report`, whereas to get help on a specific plugin a user would use `sos help report.plugins.$plugin`. This first commit includes both the initial framework for the `help` component, as well as updating `SoSReport` and `Plugin` to provide a basic implementation for the new subcommand. Additionally, `Policy` is given a basic framework for existing policies to report certain default values as well as available presets. A stub section is provided for the base `RedHatPolicy` to serve as a redirector for the actually used policies that subclass it. Closes: #2205
* [report] Provide better warning about estimate-modePavel Moravec2022-01-051-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | As --estimate-only calculates disk usage based on `stat` data that differs from outputs of other commands like `du`, enhance the warning about reliability of the calculated estimation. Also add a rule-of-thumb recommendation of real disk space requirements. Resolves: #2815 Signed-off-by: Pavel Moravec <pmoravec@redhat.com>
* [report,collect] Add option to control default container runtimeJake Hunsaker2021-12-032-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | Adds a new `--container-runtime` option that allows users to control what default container runtime is used by plugins for container based collections, effectively overriding policy defaults. If no runtimes are active, this option is effectively ignored. If however runtimes are active, but the requested one is not, raise an exception to abort collection with an appropriate message to the user. Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [transports] Add 'oc' as a transport option for remote nodesJake Hunsaker2021-10-291-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds a new transport for `sos collect` by leveraging a locally available `oc` binary that has been properly configured for access to an OCP cluster. This transport will allow users to use `sos collect` to collect reports from an OCP cluster without directly connecting to any of the nodes involved. We do this by using the `oc` binary to first launch a pod on target node(s) and then exec our discovery commands and eventual `sos report` command to that pod. This in turn is dependent on a function API for the `oc` binary to communicate with. In the event that `oc` is not __locally__ available or is not properly configured, we will fallback to the current default of using SSH ControlPersist to directly connect to the nodes. Otherwise, the OCP cluster will attempt to automatically use this new transport.
* [collect] Add --transport option and allow clusters to set transport typeJake Hunsaker2021-10-291-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds a new `--transport` option for users to be able to specify the type of transport to use when connecting to nodes. The default value of `auto` will defer to the cluster profile to set the transport type, which will continue to default to use OpenSSH's ControlPersist feature. Clusters may override the new `set_transport_type()` method to change the default transport used. If `--transport` is anything besides `auto`, then the cluster profile will not be deferred to when choosing a transport for each remote node. Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [cleaner] Add support for Insights client archivesJake Hunsaker2021-09-131-0/+1

* [clean] Provide archive abstractions to obfuscate more than sos archivesJake Hunsaker2021-09-131-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit removes the restriction imposed on `sos clean` since its introduction in sos-4.0 to only work against known sos report archives or build directories. This is because there has been interest in using the obfuscation bits of sos in other data-collector projects. The `SoSObfuscationArchive()` class has been revamped to now be an abstraction for different types of archives, and the cleaner logic has been updated to leverage this new abstraction rather than assuming we're working on an sos archive. Abstractions are added for our own native use cases - that being `sos report` and `sos collect` for at-runtime obfuscation, as well as standalone archives previously generated. Further generic abstractions are available for plain directories and tarballs however these will not provide the same level of coverage as fully supported archive types, as is noted in the manpage for sos-clean.

* [report] Implement --estimate-onlyPavel Moravec2021-09-091-1/+12

* [collect,docs] Drop `--master` and update internal referencesJake Hunsaker2021-08-233-14/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit follows up on the previous changes from #2555 by fully dropping the `--master` option in favor of `--primary`, `--manager`, and `--controller`. Internal references have been updated as well, using the term `primary` across all instances. Note that within OCP cluster profile, 'primary' labeling and option setting still relies on the 'master' label/role reported by the environment, as that remains the term used to identify such nodes. Resolves: #2329 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [sos|options] Add global 'namespaces' optionJake Hunsaker2021-08-021-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds a global `--namespaces` option that can be used to limit the number of namespaces all plugins will iterate over. If a plugin provides a specific plugin option, such as the `networking.namespaces` option, then if set that plugin option will override the global option value. The global option defaults to not limiting namespaces, matching current behavior. Closes: #2092 Resolves: #2547 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [cleaner] Remove binary files by defaultJake Hunsaker2021-06-151-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Binary files generally speaking cannot be obfuscated, and as such we should remove them from archives being obfuscated by default so that sensitive data is not mistakenly included in an obfuscated archive. This commits adds a new `--keep-binary-files` option that if used will keep any encountered binary files in the final archive. The default option of `false` will ensure that encountered binary files are removed. The number of removed binary files per archive is reported when obfuscation is completed for that archive. Closes: #2478 Resolves: #2524 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [man] unify some syntax in manpagesPavel Moravec2021-06-144-4/+9

* [collect] Add options to provide registry auth for pulling imagesJake Hunsaker2021-06-021-0/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds options that allow a user to specify registry authentication, either via username/password or an authfile, to allow pulling an image that exists on a non-public registry. If a username/password is provided, that will be used. If not, we will attempt to use an authfile - either provided by the user or by a cluster profile. Also adds an option to forcibly pull a new(er) version of the specified image, to alleviate conditions where a too-old version of the image already exists on the host. Closes: #2534 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [Policy] Add SFTP upload supportJake Hunsaker2021-06-011-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | Adds support for uploading via SFTP. This is done via pexpect calling the system's locally available SFTP binary. If either that binary or pexpect are unavailable on the local system, we will exit gracefully and report the issue. This allows sos to keep python3-pexpect as a recommends rather than a hard dependency. Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [docs] Clarify profile in manpage and how to enable further pluginsJake Hunsaker2021-05-141-6/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Updates the language in the manpage to clarify that in order to enable additional plugins outside of a profile when a profile is specified, that users must use `-o` instead of `-e`. Remove the 'current profiles' list from the manpage as it is outdated and it is better to refer users to the list reported by the local installation.

* [Policy] Allow users to toggle SSL verification for HTTPS uploadsJake Hunsaker2021-05-141-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | Adds a new `--upload-no-ssl-verify` option that controls if we verify the SSL certificate for an upload target. This will default to `False` to retain previous default behavior of performing SSL verification. Closes: #2497 Resolves: #2540 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [Policy] Correct and clarify https upload internalsJake Hunsaker2021-05-141-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The python requests module does not provide actual support for streaming, that is provided by requests-toolchain. The support in requests is for easy multipart uploads. The internal methods and variables for https uploads within `Policy` however revolve around streaming enablement, but don't actually influence the use of streaming or not. This was due to placeholders during development just being carried forward rather than corrected before merge. This was largely forgotten about, until recent reports of upload issues for user-provided endpoints. This commit serves to correct the language around the currently supported https upload functionality. That is, we either use a 'put' or 'post' based on the loaded policy defaults. Further, allow users to control this setting with a new `--upload-method` option. This will allow users to specify upload urls that may require the opposite HTTP method than what the policy defaults dictate. Related: #2497 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [man] Add missing log-size report option to collect manpageJake Hunsaker2021-04-301-0/+13

* [logging] Fix archive debug logging, adjust verbosity levelsJake Hunsaker2021-04-281-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes an issue where archive debug logging was controlled by the use of `--debug` rather than `--verbose`. Removes a superfluous log in `FileCacheArchive.add_link()`. Also, adjusts the different verbosity levels to be more meaninful. Now, the use of `-v` will enable debug logging but will not print those messages to console, `-vv` will print debug logging to console, while `-vvv` will enable archive debug logging which is expected to be significant due to most file operations being logging at some point with archive debug logging.

* [report] add --cmd-timeout optionPavel Moravec2021-04-051-1/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add --cmd-timeout option to configure command timeout. Plugin-specific option of the same name (i.e. -k logs.cmd-timeout=60) can control the timeout per plugin.

* Clarify default timeout for all pluginsJose Castillo2021-02-221-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default timeout for all plugins is 300, but the global timeout is set as -1 in the option list. This is because this timeout is unset by default. This patch attempts to clarify the -1 exposed to the user when using commands like 'sos report -l', via the option description as well as a note clarifying it in the man page.

* [clean] Allow specifying keywords in a text fileJake Hunsaker2021-02-221-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds the ability for users to provide a text file with a list of newline-delimited keywords that should be obfuscated, rather than requiring all keywords be specified either by the `--keywords` option or configuration file settings. Files may be provided via the new `--keyword-file` option which is available to `clean`, `collect`, and `report`. Closes: #2401 Resolves: #2408 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [cleaner] Add 'cleaner' alias functionalityJose Castillo2021-02-091-2/+3

* [sos] Align plugin options with destination namesJake Hunsaker2021-02-032-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit alters several option long-form names or destination names to align those values in a sensible way. This serves to not only remove some abiguity in option naming in code, but also to make it so that the "effective options" line logged in every sos execution can be direction copy-pasted as a working command.

* [report] Allow users to specify commands and files to skipJake Hunsaker2020-11-032-0/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds two new options, `--skip-commands` and `--skip-files`, that allow users to selectively skip specific command or file collection instead of having to disable whole plugins to skip those collections. These options are also exposed via `sos collect`, being gated by a version of 4.1 since that is the next scheduled release where we can guarantee this functionality will be present.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The username and password used by `Policy` when `--upload` is used may now be read via environment variables to avoid sensitive information from being included in `ps` output if they were provided via command-line options instead of the interactive prompts. Upload username may now be provided via the SOSUPLOADUSER variable. Upload password may now be provided via the SOSUPLOADPASSWORD variable.

* [docs] Update man page for sos.conf after configuration redesignJake Hunsaker2020-07-212-2/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Updates the manpage for further changes to the configuration design of sos. `man sos.conf` now includes information on non-root user overrides, as well as information regarding the subdirectories under `/etc/sos/` or `$HOME/.config/sos/`. The `sos_extras` plugin docstring has been copied into the man page as well for better coverage of how users are expected to use that plugin. The docstring remains in place in the actual plugin as well. Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
* [global] Update config file location and layoutJake Hunsaker2020-07-211-21/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Moves the default config file we look for to /etc/sos/sos.conf instead of /etc/sos.conf. Extends the config file to look for a section matching the name of the component being used. Renames the "general" section to "global" and the "tunables" section to "plugin_options". Updates the default sos.conf to this style and adds some comments to the file. Update the man page for sos.conf. Note that this commit does NOT update sos.spec to drop the default configuration file in the new location, as that will be handled by a later commit to update the specfile wholesale.
