在python中使用zookeeper管理你的应用集群

简介：

Zookeeper 分布式服务框架是 Apache Hadoop 的一个子项目，它主要是用来解决分布式应用中经常遇到的一些数据管理问题，如：统一命名服务、状态同步服务、集群管理、分布式应用配置项的管理等。

具体简介可以参照这篇文章。

zkpython的安装：

python中有一个zkpython的包，是基于zookeeper的c-client开发的，所以安装的时候需要先安装zookeeper的c客户端。安装步骤如下：

# 首先下载zookeeper
wget http://labs.renren.com/apache-mirror//zookeeper/zookeeper-3.3.3/zookeeper-3.3.3.tar.gz
tar xzvf zookeeper-3.3.3.tar.gz
cd zookeeper-3.3.3/src/c/
./configure
make
make install
 
# 然后下载zkpython
wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/z/zkpython/zkpython-0.4.tar.gz#md5=3de220615aaddf57f1462b78d32477f9
tar xzvf zkpython-0.4.tar.gz
cd zkpython-0.4
python setup.py install

这样就完成了zkpython的安装。

一个简单的demo：

之后让我们来写一个简单的demo吧。（demo中用到的zkclient.py: https://github.com/piglei/zkpython_example/blob/master/zkclient.py）

        nodes = (self.ROOT, self.WORKERS_PATH)
        for node in nodes: 
            if not self.zk.exists(node):
                try:
                    self.zk.create(node, "")

            self.get_master()
 
        children = self.zk.get_children(self.WORKERS_PATH, watcher)
        children.sort()
        self.say("%s's children: %s" % (self.WORKERS_PATH, children)) 
 
        # check if I'm master
        self.masters = children[:self.MASTERS_NUM]
        if self.path in self.masters:
            self.is_master = True
            self.say("I've become master!")
        else:
            self.say("%s is masters, I'm slave" % self.masters)
 
 
    def say(self, msg):
        """
        print messages to screen
        """
        if self.VERBOSE:
            if self.path:
                log.info("[ %s(%s) ] %s" % (self.path, "master" if self.is_master else "slave", msg))
            else:
                log.info(msg)
 
def main():
    gj_zookeeper = GJZookeeper()
 
if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
    import time
    time.sleep(1000)

这个简单的demo所做的事情，就是通过在zookeeper的/app/workers节点下建立临时的子节点( flags=zookeeper.EPHEMERAL | zookeeper.SEQUENCE )，每次create完成之后检查自己是不是在最小的MASTERS_NUM(例子中为1，即单master)里。如果是的话，作为master运行，否则的话，作为slave运行。

这样的话，当我们的master挂掉以后，与zookeeper之间的连接也会中断，过了指定的TIMEOUT以后，master之前在worker下的子节点就会被删除，于是slave节点之前设置的watcher会被触发，再次检查自己是否为master，如果是的话则完成切换。

demo运行结果：
