Scenario as a plugin
====================

Let's create a simple scenario plugin that list flavors.

Creation
^^^^^^^^

Inherit a class for your plugin from the base *OpenStackScenario* class and
implement a scenario method inside it. In our scenario, we'll first
list flavors as an ordinary user, and then repeat the same using admin
clients:

.. code-block:: python

    from rally import consts
    from rally.plugins.openstack import scenario
    from rally.task import atomic
    from rally.task import validation


    @validation.add("required_services", services=[consts.Service.NOVA])
    @validation.add("required_platform", platform="openstack", users=True)
    @scenario.configure(name="ScenarioPlugin.list_flavors_useless")
    class ListFlavors(scenario.OpenStackScenario):
        """Sample plugin which lists flavors."""

        @atomic.action_timer("list_flavors")
        def _list_flavors(self):
            """Sample of usage clients - list flavors

            You can use self.context, self.admin_clients and self.clients
            which are initialized on scenario instance creation"""
            self.clients("nova").flavors.list()

        @atomic.action_timer("list_flavors_as_admin")
        def _list_flavors_as_admin(self):
            """The same with admin clients"""
            self.admin_clients("nova").flavors.list()

        def run(self):
            """List flavors."""
            self._list_flavors()
            self._list_flavors_as_admin()


Usage
^^^^^

You can refer to your plugin scenario in the task input files in the same
way as any other scenarios:

.. code-block:: json

    {
        "ScenarioPlugin.list_flavors": [
            {
                "runner": {
                    "type": "serial",
                    "times": 5,
                },
                "context": {
                    "create_flavor": {
                        "ram": 512,
                    }
                }
            }
        ]
    }

This configuration file uses the *"create_flavor"* context which we
created in :ref:`plugins_context_plugin`.
