REX-Ray GoDoc Build Status Go Report Card codecov.io Download

REX-Ray provides a vendor agnostic storage orchestration engine. The primary design goal is to provide persistent storage for Docker, Kubernetes, and Mesos.

It is additionally available as a Go package, CLI tool, and Linux service which enables it to be used for additional use cases.

Documentation Docs

You will find complete documentation for REX-Ray at rexray.readthedocs.org, including licensing and support information. Documentation provided at RTD is based on the latest stable build. The /.docs directory in this repo will refer to the latest or specific commit.

Architecture

REX-Ray is available as a standalone process today and as a distributed model of client-server. The client performs a level abstraction of local host processes (request for volume attachment, discovery, format, and mounting of devices) while the server provides the necessary abstraction of the control plane for multiple storage platforms/

Installation

The following command will install the REX-Ray client-server tool. If using CentOS, Debian, RHEL, or Ubuntu the necessary service manager is used to bootstrap the process on startup

curl -sSL https://dl.bintray.com/emccode/rexray/install | sh -

Runtime - CLI

REX-Ray can be run as an interactive CLI to perform volume management capabilities.

$ export REXRAY_SERVICE=ebs
$ export EBS_ACCESSKEY=access_key
$ export EBS_SECRETKEY=secret_key
$ rexray volume ls
ID            Name  Status    Size
vol-6ac6c7d6        attached  8

Runtime - Service (Docker)

Additionally, it can be run as a service to support Docker, Mesos, and other platforms that can communicate through HTTP/JSON.

$ export REXRAY_SERVICE=ebs
$ export EBS_ACCESSKEY=access_key
$ export EBS_SECRETKEY=secret_key
$ rexray service start
Starting REX-Ray...SUCCESS!

  The REX-Ray daemon is now running at PID XX. To
  shutdown the daemon execute the following command:

    sudo /usr/bin/rexray stop

$ docker run -ti --volume-driver=rexray -v test:/test busybox
$ df -h /test

Runtime - Docker Plugin

Starting with Docker 1.13, Docker now supports a new plugin architecture in which plugins can be installed as containers.

$ docker plugin install rexray/ebs EBS_ACCESSKEY=access_key EBS_SECRETKEY=secret_key
Plugin "rexray/ebs:latest" is requesting the following privileges:
 - network: [host]
 - mount: [/dev]
 - allow-all-devices: [true]
 - capabilities: [CAP_SYS_ADMIN]
Do you grant the above permissions? [y/N] y
