Chaotic - Chaos for Clouds

Chaotic evaluates a plan, how it will bring chaos in your Cloud environment.

Depending on the Cloud API used, it may kill allocations (Hashicorp Nomad), reboot or stop/start virtual machines in your Cloud environment.

With no arguments given, Chaotic runs as a "one shot" meant to be executed as cron job. Passing --periodic runs it as daemon with configurable interval --interval 5 in minutes (1 is the default). NOTE: The config is re-read on every interval, no need to restart the service after changing the config.

Clouds

Currently implemented Clouds:

  • DigitalOcean
  • Vultr
  • Hetzner Cloud
  • Proxmox KVM
  • CloudStack
  • Hashicorp Nomad
  • Exoscale
  • cloudscale.ch

Install

pip3 install -U chaotic-ngine

Configure

Create a file named config.yaml or use the env var CHAOTIC_CONFIG to point to a config file (also see the example directory):

export CHAOTIC_CONFIG=config_nomad.yaml
