# CDI Upload User Guide
The purpose of this document is to show how to upload a VM disk image on your local system to a PersistentVolumeClaim in Kubernetes.

## Prerequesites
You have a Kubernetes cluster up and running with CDI installed and at least one PersistentVolume is available.

Commands/manifests below will be run from the root of the CDI repo against a Minikube cluster.

If you are using Minikube with the `storage-provisioner` addon enabled.  You can create a PersistentVolume like so:

```bash
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
  name: pv0001
spec:
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
  capacity:
    storage: 5Gi
  hostPath:
    path: /data/pv0001/
EOF
```

## Expose cdi-uploadproxy service
In order to upload data to your cluster, the cdi-uploadproxy service must be accessible from outside the cluster.  In a production environment, this probably involves setting up a Ingress or a LoadBalancer Service.

### Minikube

```bash
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: cdi-uploadproxy-nodeport
  namespace: cdi
  labels:
    cdi.kubevirt.io: "cdi-uploadproxy"
spec:
  type: NodePort
  ports:
    - port: 443
      targetPort: 8443
      nodePort: 30085
      protocol: TCP
  selector:
    cdi.kubevirt.io: cdi-uploadproxy
EOF
```

### Minishift

```bash
oc get cm -n cdi cdi-uploadproxy-signer-bundle -o=jsonpath="{.data['ca-bundle\.crt']}" > tls.crt && \
oc create route reencrypt -n cdi --service=cdi-uploadproxy --dest-ca-cert=tls.crt && \
rm tls.crt
```

### Port forwarding via the API server

`kubectl port-forward -n cdi service/cdi-uploadproxy 8443:443`

(Make sure port 8443 on your system isn't occupied.)

## Create a Data Volume
Specifying an 'upload' source will mark the data volume as a target for upload.

To create an upload datavolume use the following [example](../manifests/example/upload-datavolume.yaml).
```yaml
apiVersion: cdi.kubevirt.io/v1beta1
kind: DataVolume
metadata:
  name: upload-datavolume
spec:
  source:
      upload: {}
  storage:
    resources:
      requests:
        storage: 500Mi
```

```bash
kubectl apply -f manifests/example/upload-datavolume.yaml
```
### Create a Data Volume for archive upload

You can also upload an archive. Specifying in the data volume spec: `contentType: archive`
will mark the datavolume as archive upload and will handle the content as needed (supports also compressed tar)


## Request an Upload Token
Before sending data to the Upload Proxy, an Upload Token must be requested.

Take a look at at `manifests/example/upload-datavolume-token.yaml` for an example.
```yaml
apiVersion: upload.cdi.kubevirt.io/v1beta1
kind: UploadTokenRequest
metadata:
  name: upload-datavolume
  namespace: default
spec:
  pvcName: upload-datavolume

```
```bash
kubectl apply -f manifests/example/upload-datavolume-token.yaml -o yaml
apiVersion: upload.cdi.kubevirt.io/v1beta1
kind: UploadTokenRequest
metadata:
  annotations:
    kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration: |
      {"apiVersion":"upload.cdi.kubevirt.io/v1beta1","kind":"UploadTokenRequest","metadata":{"annotations":{},"name":"upload-datavolume-token","namespace":"default"},"spec":{"pvcName":"upload-datavolume"}}
  creationTimestamp: null
  name: upload-datavolume-token
  namespace: default
spec:
  pvcName: upload-datavolume
status:
  token: eyJhbGciOiJQUzUxMiIsImtpZCI6IiJ9.eyJwdmNOYW1lIjoidXBsb2FkLXRlc3QiLCJuYW1lc3BhY2UiOiJkZWZhdWx0IiwiY3JlYXRpb25UaW1lc3RhbXAiOiIyMDE4LTA5LTIxVDE4OjEyOjE5LjQwODI1MDQ4NFoifQ.JWk1VyvzSse3eFiBROKgGoLnOPCiYW9JdDWKXFROEL6XY0O5lFb1R0rwdfWwC3BBOtEA9mC9x3ZGYPnYWO-5G_r1fWKHjF-zifrCX_3Dhp3vfSq6Zfpu-vV0Qn0A3YkSCCmiC_nONAhVjEDuQsRFIKwYcxBoEOpye92ggH2u5FxQE7FwxxH6-RHun9tc_lIFX-ZFKnq7n5tWbjsTmAZI_4rDNgYkVFhFtENU6e-5_Ncokxs3YVzkbSrXweZpRmmaYQOmZhjXSLjKED_2FVq7tYeVueEEhKC_zJ-AEivstALPwPjiwyWXJyfE3dCmbA1sBKuNUrAaDlBvSAp1uPV9eQ
```

Save the `token` field of the response status.  It will be used to authorize our CDI Upload request. Tokens are good for 5 minutes.

You can capture the token in an environment variable by doing this:
```bash
TOKEN=$(kubectl apply -f manifests/example/upload-datavolume-token.yaml -o="jsonpath={.status.token}")
```

## Upload an Image
We will be using [curl](https://github.com/curl/curl) to upload `tests/images/cirros-qcow2.img` to the datavolume.

Assuming that the environment variable `TOKEN` contains a valid UploadToken, execute the following to upload the image:

### Minikube
#### Synchronous
```bash
curl -v --insecure -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" --data-binary @tests/images/cirros-qcow2.img https://$(minikube ip):30085/v1beta1/upload
```
The connection will not be closed until the entire process is completed. If the conversion or resizing process takes a long time intermediate proxies might close the connection unexpectedly.

#### Asynchronous
```bash
curl -v --insecure -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" --data-binary @tests/images/cirros-qcow2.img https://$(minikube ip):30085/v1beta1/upload-async
```
As soon as the data has been transmitted, the connection will be closed. The caller should monitor the Datavolume status to see if the process is completed.
### Minishift
#### Synchronous
```bash
curl -v --insecure -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" --data-binary @tests/images/cirros-qcow2.img https://cdi-uploadproxy-cdi.$(minishift ip).nip.io/v1beta1/upload
```
The connection will not be closed until the entire process is completed. If the conversion or resizing process takes a long time intermediate proxies might close the connection unexpectedly.

#### Asynchronous
```bash
curl -v --insecure -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" --data-binary @tests/images/cirros-qcow2.img https://cdi-uploadproxy-cdi.$(minishift ip).nip.io/v1beta1/upload-async
```
As soon as the data has been transmitted, the connection will be closed. The caller should monitor the Datavolume status to see if the process is completed.


Assuming you did not get an error, the Datavolume `upload-datavolume` should now contain a bootable VM image.

### Using Kubevirt image upload

If you have also [Kubevirt](https://github.com/kubevirt/kubevirt) extension you can use `virtctl image-upload`. For examples check out image-upload help.
