Opposition grows against APS solar rate hike
Mayor Doug Von Gausig: "People who have put solar on their houses are making an investment that is far from the return they'll get ... They're looking at the effect that having solar on their house will have on global warming."
Yvonne Gonzalez
Staff Reporter
Clarkdale Town Council members voted Tuesday to oppose two Arizona Public Service proposals that would increase rates for rooftop solar customers.
The town joins Cave Creek, renewable energy activists, and Republican Barry Goldwater Jr.'s advocacy group, Tell Utilities Solar won't be Killed, in pushing back against the rate hike.
APS claims non-solar customers are unfairly carrying the financial burden of maintaining the power grid through fees that are automatically included in their rates, but that solar customers do not pay.
The council decided to send a letter to the Arizona Corporation Commission, the elected body considering the proposals, stating increased rates, while perhaps necessary in the long term, would eliminate most of the incentives that encourage customers to install distributed energy systems.
Bills for new solar customers would likely increase by between $50 and $100 per month, which Clarkdale Mayor Doug Von Gausig said is excessive and would stymie solar energy installations.
"We need renewable energy to be encouraged, and that kind of rate hike will have a discouraging effect," Von Gausig said.
APS spokesman Greg Bernosky said solar customers are not paying for a grid that they are hooked into. The utility is required by law to provide all customers with a consistent source of power day and night, rain or shine.
Grid maintenance costs stay the same regardless of how many customers decide to go solar. By not paying into the maintenance of the grid, those infrastructure costs are passed off on other customers who do not want or cannot afford to install solar panels.
W.P. Carey School of Business Dean Emeritus Robert Mittelstaedt and a group of ASU professors have been facilitating discussions with utility companies across the country to explore how to fairly distribute the costs of maintaining the power grid.
According to APS, the majority of people who have solar are more affluent, with larger homes. Mittelstaedt said as more people install distributed energy systems, this creates a socioeconomic issue where the grid is primarily providing for the people who can't afford solar.
"If we're not careful, we might get to that point," he said. "It's quite reasonable to start with the premise that everyone who's connected to the grid has to support it."
Less than 2 percent of APS customers are using solar, but the company wants to correct this fee shift before that number climbs to the point where a small proportion of customers are being unfairly burdened.
"Setting our policies and addressing this issue now keeps that from being a significant cost impact to non-solar customers," Bernosky said. "The time is now to have the conversation and put us on the right path so that we don't have to make this an issue for customers."
Bernosky explained the proposals to the council during their regular meeting. The two plans would not impact commercial or current solar customers.
The first policy makes changes to the net metering billing option that is currently used by about 10 percent of APS customers.
When a solar customer produces more energy than they use, it flows back into the grid and goes to the next customer who needs it. As is, net metering compensates the customer at market value in the form of a bill credit.
The new plan reduces the amount of compensation from market value to the wholesale price APS would pay any other energy provider for the same power. The difference between the two numbers is about 10 cents per kilowatt-hour.
"The rates just aren't designed appropriately to address the needs that exist," Bernosky said.
Solar industry advocates claim APS is undervaluing the power distributed energy producers contribute to the grid.
Studies sponsored by APS value the energy produced by rooftop solar customers at about 4 cents per kwh, reflecting fuel and infrastructure savings.
Research sponsored by solar companies, however, values rooftop solar power at about 22 cents per kwh by including benefits from added jobs in the renewable energy industry, impacts on commodity prices, and other qualitative benefits. In documents submitted to the corporation commission, APS describes this rate as "grossly inflated."
Von Gausig said solar customers are contributing to a more secure energy future and reducing the need for APS to build more power plants.
"People who have put solar on their houses are making an investment that is far from the return they'll get," he said. "Most of these people are doing this not just to have a lower bill. They're not looking to externalize their expenses on other people. They're looking at the effect that having solar on their house will have on global warming."
The second option would replace net metering with a bill credit.
Distributed energy customers would purchase all of their power from APS under a rate plan they choose, just like any other customer. The power produced by their rooftop solar panels would flow into the grid and be credited to their bill at a rate set by the ACC based on wholesale prices.
"To say, here's a flat fee for all solar customers - the problem is the fact that not every customer is the same size," Bernosky said. "That fee may be too high or too low depending on energy consumption."
APS is also proposing an increase in the upfront cash incentive given to future distributed energy customers. As the price of solar panels has declined over time, the utility has lowered the incentive amount paid to customers from about $4 per kwh at the start of the program to about 10 cents today.
Arizona's Renewable Energy Standard Tariff has been in effect sine 2007 and requires APS to obtain 15 percent of its energy from renewable sources. A third of that percentage must come from distributed energy systems like rooftop solar.
APS is currently ahead of schedule to meet this standard.
"Incentives are there to start a market," Bernosky said. "We had 6,000 solar installations last year. They've spurred innovation and cost management, and now we're ready to move on to the next level."
During the meeting, Councilman Bill Regner pointed to a 2009 study commissioned by APS that found as more distributed energy systems are installed, the utility company will realize increased savings in costs associated with fixed operation and maintenance, fuel, purchased power and energy lost through line transmissions.
Von Gausig said this proves solar customers contribute to the public good, and increasing rates will only deter potential users. In as little as two months from now, rates for new solar customers could jump overnight.
"This isn't the right time to do this," he said.
While sensitive to the position APS is in, Von Gausig said the ACC needs to do some creative thinking to solve the problem.
"We agree that at some point you're going to have to make some adjustments to all of the rates to maintain the grid," Von Gausig said. "Instead of collecting $50 to $100 per month from each solar user, collecting $3 to $5 from all customers could accomplish the same goal."
Vice Mayor Richard Dehnert compared APS's proposals to a 1950s Buick and a Prius at a gas station. The owner of the more fuel efficient vehicle should not be punished for purchasing less gas by paying more per gallon than the Buick owner.
"APS is hanging on to this gigantic generation and grid model," he said during the meeting. "(APS needs) to figure out a new way to make money."

APS fees need to be fair & sustainable. Everyone should pay grid maintenance fees, buy electricity @ a retail price, & sell any excess electricity they generate back to APS @ a wholesale rate. Home Solar Generators need APS's grid unless they want to go off grid with batteries, etc..., but they should be based on their use of the grid (in & out) not a flat fee.

Where in the equation is the $11mil salary for the top brass in this org.? or where are all the subsidies accounted for that APS currantly receives? This is how they really make their money. They are guaranteed and paid a profit from the gov. Tax revenue collected. Expanding and maintaining the infrastructure (grid) Is already paid for by the tax payer, rate payer. Look at your bill. Palo Verde nuck plant is collecting subs for Aps right now in the event it might have to be decommissioned. These subsidies range into the billions annually. Arizona should be leading the way in solar. incidentally, where is all this subsidy money banked and is it accounted for?

Good article, Yvonne.
It is in everyone's best interest to increase energy efficiency. Efficient appliances and buildings use less energy to do the same job. This means that customers use less energy and save money - money that would have gone to APS. (Similarly, oil companies are not in favor of CAFE standards.)
Diversified sources of energy production increase the stability of everyone's grid. Rooftop solar is a kind of insurance for the grid during peak use hours.
When AC and industry use is maximum, so is solar energy production. So the coal fired plant which supplies our grid can handle power peaks more reliably with less coal. And the capacity which solar provide allows for increased usage in the future without the need to build an additional coal plant. The "problem" is that APS desires to run their coal plant at full power at all times, like any business would. Solar threatens that.
Now, under APS monopolistic logic, the more energy you save, the more you pay for each unit you use. This reminds one Soviet communism.
The elected Corporation Commission is supposed to be looking out for the voters (energy user's), best interest.

Since when is APS a progressive, socialist leaning monopoly worried about the poor shouldering unfair costs? APS is a capitalist, money sucking, anti solar and wind government monopoly that can't sustain a guaranteed revenue stream if people become efficient users of their single product and or solarize.
So when the APS spokesman says,
"According to APS, the majority of people who have solar are more affluent, with larger homes. Mittelstaedt said as more people install distributed energy systems, this creates a socioeconomic issue where the grid is primarily providing for the people who can't afford solar.
"If we're not careful, we might get to that point," he said. "It's quite reasonable to start with the premise that everyone who's connected to the grid has to support it."
Less than 2 percent of APS customers are using solar, but the company wants to correct this fee shift before that number climbs to the point where a small proportion of customers are being unfairly burdened."
The actual reason is that NOW APS has the ability to fly any BS past the Arizona Corporation Commission, an oversight commission made up of its well-funded flunkies all who rubber stamp monopoly requests.
Electrical monopolies profits have decreased since the mid-80s. APS is the kind of monopoly that wants energy LESS efficient appliances, no solar buy backs, teeny eeny dribbles of capital funding for grid security and etc...and APS would gouge the poor as fast as the rich. They don't give a damn about who pays, they want all to pay, and pay big.
BTW, schools have solar - I'm not sure in AZ that our schools are havens of affluence...and in our neighborhood it's a retired guy on a fixed income that went solar because he is retired and on a fixed income...his utility bill he proudly proclaims is $7.
That's what APS hates.

Not For Me Yet
Hold on for a second and see if I got this right. APS sells me electricity for (estimate) 20 cents a kilowatt hour but will only buy electricity from me (if I had solar panels) for (estimate) 10 cents a kilowatt hour. If this is correct, who is getting screwed here? Another fallacy here states people are looking at the effect that having solar will help with global warming. Everyone I know who has them just wants to save money in the long run.

While I agree that ALL customers should (perhaps) SHARE the burden of "grid maintenance", this only works if the burden is shared equally. APS, with ACC support, has buried this component of their cost structure into their rates - no one, not even the ACC (or perhaps even APS) knows what the actual cost per connection is. Until that is established, there is no way that APS should be allowed to ARBITRARILY asses solar uses any amount for this purpose.
It seems to me that what needs to happen if that APS needs to segregate their operating costs between production, distribution and grid maintenance. Perhaps then there can be a reasonable discussion of what solar customers should be assessed for grid maintenance, and this amount would be, necessarily, the same for all connections. IMHO

APS buys electricity at wholesale rates and delivers it to end users. End users buy the electricity at rates high enough to pay APS's business expenses, wages, and a reasonable return for investors. It's understandable that APS wants to make it clear that they are, in effect, buying back electricity at retail rates from consumer solar energy generators and that no business can survive with that model. But they are being disingenuous.
Is four to five cents per kWh really the wholesale cost APS pays for solar-generated electricity?
Abengoa Solar, subsidiary of a Spanish multi-national corporation, got $1.45 billion in federal loan guarantees to build the $2 billion Solana solar generating plant now nearing completion. APS contracted to buy all the electricity the new plant produces at a rate of about fourteen cents per kWh (which is artificially low due to the 30% investment tax credit subsidy). Why is the 'renewable' electricity from consumer solar installations worth so much less?
It makes sense for APS to want the cost of delivery borne fairly by customers with grid-tie solar, but the current proposals are unreasonable.
As others have pointed out, this is not the time to hurt the budding on-site solar installation and maintenance industry, which has created many times more potentially-permanent jobs than the industrial-scale solar generators. On the other hand, perhaps this is a 'wake-up call' regarding the unsustainability of subsidies that will prompt advances in affordable on-site storage and have APS wishing they'd found a more palatable solution.
Can you say "off-grid neighborhood electrical generation cooperative?"
BTW, how many are aware that when you install a grid-tie inverter your solar power shuts down when the grid goes down?

While speaking of utility taxes, resident taxation for town water systems not used is unjust. Those on self-maintained, private wells should not be required to pay into town/city water systems.

I studied solar/engineer in college and run a solar company in Tucson. Solar is too expensive to be viable today and probably will remain that way for decades. Sorry. I do these calculations every day. Solar only appears economic because of the high level of subsidies. ( >1/2 the total cost is subsidized)
Asking solar users to pay for the services of APS who must supply them power when they want it and must take their power when the solar users want to sell it is not free. APS is not a free "battery" for solar customers. The $100/mo charge is correct & fair.
As it is, solar customers are taking a free ride on their neighbors which is immoral.

I am in favor of solar, wind, etc etc. I am also in favor of everyone pays for infrastructure. I will not buy solar or wind until it is affordable with zero scams. When APS ask what I am going to do on my annual phone to save energy? meaning, am I going to buy solar, replace appliances, windows, etc etc. I said I would simply start unplugging unnecessary items and increase shade. So cavecreek and Clarkdale? You must pay your fair share of cost of maintaining the old and the cost of the new. Just like the rest of us.

I agree with Mayor Von Gausig. This is the worst possible time to decrease incentives to install and maintain private solar energy generation.
The Arizona Corporation Commission needs to hear from every concerned citizen immediately. Otherwise, APS's purchase of solar energy from the new Solana Generating Station and the debt servicing for this world-class facility will overshadow all other considerations.
Also, for those who really want their voices considered and their concerns addressed: Write to the Vice President and Chief Customer Officer, APS, Mail Station 8028, P. O. Box 53999, Phoenix, Az 85072. Be sure to include your address.
You'll receive a reply justifying APS's position up one side and down the other. BUT...the last time I took the time to tell APS how I thought it could have handled customer relations better, I saw every point improved within 8 months. It really helps to talk directly to the people whose job depends on your opinion of their company. It helps to make your position crystal clear. It helps to assume they want to keep their customers happy. Few ratepayers do.

Low Cost Power, Maybe Yes.
1. The billing structure of a power company
should not be forced, by the heavy hand of gov,
for "government engineering" nor "social
engineering". Billing should based on the
pragmatic needs of supplying an infrastructure to
supply power to each customer...broken down
into two main components: (1) a monthly fixed
fee based on amperage service, and (2) a
variable fee based on consumption of electricity.
Now if the power company wants to encourage
"solar energy" it might/should be able to give a
deal to the customer by paying for the above two components for any electricity from the
customers solar source.
2. Interesting observation...when it comes to
the reality of residential solar systems well over
90% of home owners stay away from solar
because of high cost and low reliability of the
solar system.
3. In the last few years some home owners
have been buying into a 20 years lease type
contracts. Reason: the bulk of new install cost
and cost of maintenance is put on the back of
the installer. (I don't know if these 20 years
deals are gov backed...if they are, taxpayer...
4. In life nothing is free...And all of us should
be pushing for conservation of all resources.

Finally, now you can have your green smoothie and eat it too!
Summer is winding down for sure, but the temps are totally still popsicle friendly. I whipped up some green smoothie pops for those days when you want a sweet treat but need your greens too.
These pops were inspired by one of Pyknic's latest tee's: "Avo-nly Got Eyes For You." This tee immediately spoke to me, as an avid avocado eater/enthusiast/lover. Rather than stick to the basic (but always amazing) avocado toast recipe, I figured I'd embrace the season and get chilly on ya. This green avocado smoothie pops are a magical hybrid of dessert meets healthy green smoothie.

Himax Ahead Of Earnings. 0 commentsNov 1, 2013 2:12 PM
(NASDAQ:HIMX)As stated in my previous article Is Himax Overbought?, I had been anticipating a temporary pullback in the in the stock.
We are currently trading at key support levels with earnings fast approaching.(click to enlarge)
As we can see from the chart, Long Term support, MA(50) and rising trend line all converge just bellow today's range.
In addition RSI is nearing oversold levels and I anticipate that support will hold.
As a result I favor long positions above $9.35 with a target of $11.15 into earnings.
A break below $9 would lead to further downside. Further selling should be limited to $8 horizontal support. See highs in May and July

Types of screen protectors
It can be very confusing and time consuming process to shop for a screen protectors. There are many brands of screen protectors, but in reality most of them are the same and they can be classified in accordance to their materials. Here is a quick summary of everything available in the market.
Screen Protectors made by Rhino Shield
the multilayered screen protector which is based on combinations of polymeric material, are extremely effective at damping and spread the impact force, and therefore reducing the force that glass undergo at the impact area. The viscoelastic behaviour can also reflect the force back at the source of the impact as shown beblow, they were both Gorilla Glass 3 panels except one had a Rhino shield protector.

HAMMONTON - In this mostly Italian farming town of nearly 15,000, where flat fields and two-lane roads are a sharp contrast from the big-box stores and crowded highways of New Jersey's more developed areas, the blueberry is abundant.
Skyward, they are painted on a water tower that displays the town's name. On the ground, they flourish. And at the annual Red, White and Blueberry Festival, people from around the state buy them in bulk.
"I was raised in Hammonton," said Lisa Varesio, treasurer of the town's Chamber of Commerce, which hosts the festival. "So it's almost like the blood runs blue after a while."

Does the thought of flying through the cool mountain skies of the California wilderness, your trusty Bluetick Coonhound Tet at you side, excite you to no end? Me neither (city slicker, present), but that doesn't mean this Airwolf helicopter replica is any less cool. Sure it doesn't have an interior, and the chain gun has been suspiciously removed, but it's got character, and probably still smells like the feathered coiffure of Jan-Michael Vincent. That's Stringfellow Hawke, to you civies. More pics and budget pricing for this hunk of nostalgia after the jump. That dust is 1980s dust. That means this chopper is a collector's item, not filthy dirty. Bidding started at about $40,000, and concludes later today.

Average Rating: 5/5 stars (13 reviews)
100% would recommend it to a friend.
I absolutely love these letter stickers, I buy online from NZ as I just can't find anything quite like them over here. I will buy these time and time again for all my scrapbooking needs. They come in such a range of colours, they are the perfect height and look fantastic in my scrapbooks! Would highly recommend!
Very nice set for the price. Like the other reviewers mentioned, you don't get many repetitions, but considering that you get eight sets of alphabet stickers for under $5 I find it to be a good deal. Might want to stock up on these if doing a lot of headings.
A nice selection of coloured cardstock letters stickers. Ideal for absolutely everything! Already worked my way through half of the colours and I just got them today! Will definitely be ordering some more!
These make finishing up a page with lettering and Titles a breeze and the wide range of colors fits most color schemes. Great product!
These letter stickers are perfect for mixing with other fonts or using them alone. Love the colors!
The colors are good. They stick well and are easy to get off the cards they come on.
Teaching the kids, how to spell with app of these, very colorful.
Awesome products and awesome service from Scrapbook.com!
i like these letter stickers for my journaling
Good color, Nice Variety of colors, medium sized letters and alphabet. There are 2 of each letter with 3 each of the vowels, but only ONE of each NUMBER so if doing years with these stickers, make sure you have enough numbers to do the year in question...any year needing TWO of the same number in the same color isn't going to 'happen' unless you get 2 sets of these or do your year using something else.
Small but great
I got these on sale, but I wish I would have bought many more sets. The letters are all in upper-case, but I am sure I'll get tonnes of use out of them. For eight different colors, the price is amazing!
Really cute colors so colorful good quality hope they keep making more colors i like using alphabet stickers for my journal... :-)

Ole N. Jensen (*1965, Odense, DK) is professor and Head of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Southern Denmark in Odense.
He obtained the degree of PhD in Biochemistry and Biophysics in 1994 at Oregon State University at Corvallis, USA, based on studies of protein-nucleic acid interactions with professor Douglas F. Barofsky. He then joined the research group of Matthias Mann at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg, Germany, where he contributed to the development of mass spectrometry tools for the emerging research field of proteomics.
In 1997 he returned to Odense and the University of Southern Denmark as an assistant professor and he initiated studies of protein phosphorylation using affinity enrichment methods and tandem mass spectrometry. He became an associate professor in 2000 and then a Lundbeck Foundation Research Professor 2004-2009. He was awarded an EliteForsk prize from the Danish Ministry of Science in 2009 for his contributions to the development of the field of phosphoproteomics to study cell signaling and regulatory networks.
In recent years, Ole N. Jensen's research focus has moved to chromatin biology and epigenetics and "middle-down" proteomics approaches and mass spectrometry to study co-existing post-translational modifications and their cross-talk in proteins.
Ole N. Jensen has supervised more than 50 Master's students, PhD students and postdocs and he has established collaborations with academic and industrial scientists in and outside Denmark. He is founding member and President of the Danish Proteomics Society (DAPSOC) and a member of HUPO, EuPA and ASMS. In 2014 he became a member of the Danish Academy of Technical Sciences (ATV).

How do proteins work?
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell because they play many structural and functional roles in maintaining cellular metabolism and integrity and they respond to changes in the cellular environment. We aim to elucidate the molecular mechanisms that regulate protein functions and activities in order to understand how complex protein networks in the cell are regulated and how diseases develop, e.g. in the context of cancer. We are particularly interested in studying proteins in chromatin and their involvement in transcriptional and epigenetic regulation. We are also investigating proteins in mitochondria and their behavioour in the context of metabolism and diabetes. We use advanced mass spectrometry and computational methods to study dynamic and static post-translational protein modifications, such as phosphorylation, acetylation and glycosylation.
Protein Research group
Center for Epigenetics
Current research projects
Bioanalytical technology development for protein characterization
We are continuously optimizing and expanding our analytical tools for protein analysis, including peptide separation and sequencing, mapping of mutations and post-translational modifications, and bioinformatics and statistics techniques for data analysis. We use a variety of advanced mass spectrometry methods, including electrospray ionization (ESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry. The aim is to make it more straightforward to investigate the proteins in cells and tissues using functional proteomics approaches, thereby elucidating fundamental biological mechanisms and origins of disease.
Elucidation of epigenetic mechanisms by functional proteomics
We are part of the Center of Excellence in Epigenetics financed by the Danish National Research Foundation (www.epigenetics.dk). We investigate proteins that are involved in maintaining chromatin integrity, regulating transcriptional activity and propagation of epigenetic information. We are particularly interested in developing "middle-down" and "top-down" methods for protein characterization in order to unravel the role of co-existing modifications in chromatin binding proteins and transcription complexes in mammalian stem cells.

We stayed here with our youngish children and another family (5 adults and 6 children in total).
It is hard to imagine that there could be anywhere better to stay in Kyoto. I won't repeat the descriptions found in the other reviews except to say that our hosts were charming and couldn't do enough to look after us and that the walk to and from the inn through the park (around 5-10 minutes) was one of my favourite parts of every day.

Synthetic eyeliner brush from BM Beauty. Fine tipped synthetic fibres deliver a perfectly controlled stroke. Great for lining the eyes with ultra precise application using wet or dry mineral eyeshadow.
• Made from the highest quality synthetic fibre.
• Cruelty free and BUAV approved
• Suitable for vegetarians and vegans
Why use synthetic fibre brushes?
• Firstly, synthetic brushes are more hygienic than real hair brushes. Real hair has an irregular surface which can trap dirt and bacteria and can cause irritation to the skin.
• Synthetic fibres have a smooth surface which is easier to keep clean and bacteria free, thus reducing the risk of irritation.
• Make up brushes which are made of synthetic fibre are of course cruelty free. We wouldn't dream of wearing fur, so why use it to apply your make up!

Setting up Ubuntu for High School Help
August 20th, 2010, 07:09 PM
How would i set up ubuntu for a school? it would need about 500 users and i am unsure how i would do this? please help
August 20th, 2010, 07:14 PM
Really depends on what you need. Do you have thin clients or are the workstations full-fledged computers? Are all your users going to be running Ubuntu, or just the server? What type of services do you need the server to provide? Mail, file&print sharing? Do you have Active Directory policies?
Perhaps we should go over what you currently have and we can discuss what you need.
August 21st, 2010, 01:29 AM
i did some volunteer work for partimus (http://www.partimus.org/) a few weekends ago. they had what seemed to be pretty much the ultimate school setup. netboot automated installs for new computers, all sorts of great stuff.
toss em an email?
next time i meet them in person (& especially if i meet the guy that actually developed the deployable platform) ill bring it up. that may be a month or two from now.

Starphleet Documentation
Currently v2.0.0
Currently v2.0.0
Starphleet is a toolkit for turning virtual or physical machine infrastructure into a continuous deployment stack, running multiple Git-backed services on one more nodes via Linux containers.
Starphleet borrows heavily from the concepts of the Twelve-Factor App, and uses an approach that avoids many of the problems inherent in existing autodeployment solutions:
Starphleet includes Amazon Web Services (AWS) support. To initialize your phleet, you need to have an AWS account.
To install on a mac computer you will need the following software
Once all the software is installed you can install starphleet into vmware with the following steps
A phleet is a grouping of starphleet ships. The entire phleet points to a single headquarters. These ships may be geographically located for latency or maintained in a single region. A phleet is comprised of machines that are intended to be identical for easy scaling.
A ship is an Ubuntu 14.04 EC2 instance running a base install of Ubuntu. The starphleet installation will handle installing all needed software on the server.
The headquarters is a special Git repo that is the brains of your phleet. The Headquarters will store all your environment and configuration options. This repo will also contain all your credentials and confidential information. It is important to keep your headquarter security restrictive. An example and template headquarters can be found here.
The orders file is a special file inside a subdirectory off the root directory of the headquarters.
Each subdirectory off the root of the headquarters is checked for an orders file. Starphleet will look inside the orders file for deploy commands and environment variables for the service. There is a 1-1 mapping between the subdirectory that contains an orders file and the url of the service deployed.
A service is an app that responds to web requests. The service should listen for web requests on the
$PORT set in the Environment. The service lives within an LXC Container and will be handed requests by the NGINX front end on the ship.
Remotes are GitHub repos that are not intended to be deployed. These special repos are instead intended to be resources for applications. By specifying a remote inside a service endpoint directory the GitHub repo will be automatically checked out and synced in the
/var/data/$service_name directory.
The Starphleet Headquarters is a Git repo with all the master configurations for the entire phleet of servers. It will contain the deploy commands for every service, keys for ssh console access to the ships, ssl certificates for the domain(s) you assign to the ship, configuration settings for authentication for each service as well as how the machine can reach LDAP servers, and any other major configuration item.
Aside from special directories, each directory in the headquarters is assumed to be a remote or service
The Headquarters has the followin special directories and files outlined below:
|The .starphleet file is in the root of the headquarters and handles global environment configuration for services and starphleet. This is where you'd override default starphleet configs for the entire phleet. This is also where you'd set global environment settings for every service in an entire phleet.
|The authorized_keys folder should container all the openssh public keys for users who want console access to the ships. The users will all login as "admiral" using their associated private key
|The beta_groups directory contains a list of files containing usernames inside the file. The names of the files are used in the orders to setup beta groups
|The ldap_servers folder contains a list of files for all the ldap configurations used by the security system to secure services. The name of the files are used inside the orders files to configure the security for an endpoint.
|The overlay directory contains files intended to be dropped on to the file system of each ship. Their is a direct relationship between the file structure of the overlay directory and the file structure of the ship
|The ssl directory contains any of the SSL keys associated with the domains pointing to the ships in the phleet.
To create a service endpoint you create a new directory off the root of the headquarters. Inside the directory you create an orders file which contains configuration options and deploy commands for the service. This file will tell Starphleet which Git repo to deploy at this endpoint. The following is what the directory structure will look like along with a few of the files that might be associated with your service:
|Aside from the reserved files and directories in the headquarters each directory in your headquarters is considered a service endpoint. These directories will correspond to a service that gets exposed via NGINX and inside the directories you will place files that contain all the environment and details for the service.
|The orders file contains all the environment variables and Starphleet commandsto get a service or remote deployed.
|There are times you may want to get data onto the server but the data is intended to be consumed by services. These are called "remotes". Just like a service, a remote is tracked for changes and automatically updated when the Git repo changes. THe data is stored inside the container in "/var/data/$service". $service corresponds with the service directory the remote file is located in.
|The on_containerize script must be checked into the headquarters as executable to be executed by Starphleet. When Starphleet downloads a service it will run through the built-in Heroku buildpacks and try to determine the type of application. Before this process occurs, Starphleet will run the on_containerize script as root. This script can run commands that might help setup the container before the buildpack begins.
|The after_containerize script must be checked into the headquarters as executable to be executed by Starphleet. When Starphleet downloads a service it will run through the built-in Heroku buildpacks and try to determine the type of application. After this process occurs, Starphleet will run the after_containerize script as root. This script can run commands that might help setup the container after the buildpack finishes.
|$Cron jobs must be checked into the headquarters as executable to be executed by Starphleet. See cron jobs for more information
There are special Starphleet commands expected to be run in the orders file. Commands are:
|This command is passed a single argument which is a link to a github repo. If the repo is private, the link must be an SSH link and Starphleet must have an SSH key installed with access to the repo. This command will build a container, run your application, and if successfully completed, mount the application to the path corresponding to the location of the orders file.
|Some services that run in a container need special ports exposed outside of the machine. Expose will open a hole in the local machine's firewall and forward traffic destined for the exposed port directly into the container.
|Starphleet will create a container at the location corresponding with the path to the orders file but will not expose the service for web traffic.
All variables need to be exported to be available to your application. For instance:
Variables are available to your application. Some variables are exposed to your application by Starphleet but can be overridden.
|The PORT your service will accept requests on. This is the port NGINX will pass traffic through to your service. This port is not exposed externally of the ship.
|Any other environment variable set in the orders file will be passed to the application
Most of the configuration in Starphleet is handled by setting environment variables. Starphleet exposes several environment variables to the applications that run in the containers. You can set environment variables for a container in a few ways:
It is also important to note that the above list also represents the order in which the environment is overridden.
Environment Variables set globally will be available to all services on all ships in the phleet. You can set these global environment files in the HQ in the
.starphleet reserved file.
In some cases it might be necessary to set environment variables that are specific to each ship in a phleet. These variables might be unique to a ship like its location. These environment variables get set by adding files to a special directory on the ship. Any file located in the
/etc/starphleet.d directory will be sourced and available to all environments in Starphleet.
The orders file used to deploy a container also acts as the final location to set environment variables and override any defaults set upstream from your service. Common settings in the orders file would include locations to resources, DB credentials, and the authentication mechanism you want Starphleet to use for your service.
All variables need to be exported to be available to your application. For instance 'export FOO="BAR"'. Variables are available to your application. Some variables are exposed to your application by Starphleet and can be overridden in your headquarters
|Pass the name of the service and select which container. Once inside the container you will be running as the
ubuntu user which is the same as your service.
|If you make use of AWS Route 53 and point a healtcheck to your ships you will want to reference the path
/starphleet/nginx/status. The
starphleet-dns-offline command will make the path unavailable which will softly fail your ship in route 53. If your ship is part of a record set in route 53 this will take your machine out of the rotation or cause a failover scenario to other DNS records
|If you make use of AWS Route 53 and point a healtcheck to your ships you will want to reference the path
/starphleet/nginx/status. The
starphleet-dns-online command will make the path available which will make your ship healthy in Route 53. If your ship is part of a record set in route 53 this will bring your machine online in the DNS rotation or heal from a failover.
|This command can be substituted for
git but will make use of the keys provided to Starphleet when connecting to your git repo.
|Without an argument this command will display the headquarters used by Starphleet. Provided an arguement, this command will change the headquarters used by Starphleet.
|It is not safe to restart NGINX manually. The services responsible for configuring NGINX might be midway through their process and cause NGINX to fail a restart. This command allows you to signal to the NGINX configuration engine built into Starphleet to attempt to reconfigure NGINX and reload the configs.
|Much like the
starphleet-hup-nginx command, this utility triggers the NGINX configuration engine built into Starphleet to attempt to reconfigure NGINX. When this process completes NGINX is restarted instead of reloading. Any services utilizing websockets will lose their connection. Restarting NGINX can only be done manually through this command. Starphleet never restarts NGINX automatically.
|When orders vanish from the headquarters, Starphleet will not automatically kill containers that remain running. These containers are orphaned. There are not active orders for the containers but they still exist.
starphleet-orphan-reaper will purge any containers without matching orders.
|This command accepts the name of a service. This command will completely destroy any existance of the service even if the service is deployed.
|This command will create fake shas for a service and attempt a deploy of the service. What makes this command unique from
starphleet-redeploy is that the current and active container will not be destroyed unless the newer container successfully deployes. If the
starphleet-retry-deploy container has an issue the active container will remain online.
|Provides a quick overview of the status of a container.
Buildpacks autodetect and provision services in containers for you. We would like to give a huge thanks to Heroku for having open buildpacks, and to the open source community for making and extending them. The trick that makes the Starphleet orders file so simple is the use of buildpacks and platform package managers to install dynamic, service specific code, such as rubygems or npm and associated dependencies, that may vary with each push of your service. Note that Starphleet will only deploy one buildpack per Linux container - for services which are written in multiple languages, custom buildpacks may be required.
Starphleet currently includes support for Ruby, Python, NodeJS, and NGINX static buildpacks.
|This will run bundle install and make use of your Procfile.
|TODO: Fill in
|TODO: Fill In
|Detect an index.html file and service static contact.
Starphleet supports four primary mechanisms for authentication.
The authentication security mechanism for Starphleet control how each service is protected by authentication. The default authentication mechanism is
htpasswd. The default security mechanism can be overridden using one of the override mechanisms and updating the configuration variables outlined below.
|This is the name of the header used by NGINX to store the "user" authenticated to the service. The user will be set based on the
SECURITY_MODE variable and will be dependent on the security mechanism used to authenticate the service. This header will be passed to the web request sent to the apps running the the containers. The apps can validate which user is making the request without baking their own authentication mechanism.
|The name of the cookie assigned the username of an authenticated user. Works the same as
|This setting determines what authentication "mode" a service is deployed in. This setting is intended to be overridden in the headquarters or in the orders file. This mode can be one of four settings:
|The name assigned here corresponds with the name of the file containing the LDAP configuration you want to use to authenticate the service.
|This setting is required. This value is used as the secret to sign and verify JWT tokens
|This setting is required. The path to a login service that signs JWT tokens.
This setting is optional.
This setting is optional.
|The appropriate HTPASSWD string associated with the
All variables need to be exported to be available to your application. For instance
Assigning the
SECURITY_MODE setting to
public requires no additional configuration. Starphleet will serve the content behind a public endpoint openly.
Assigning the
SECURITY_MODE setting to
ldap requires additional configuration in the headquarters. The following is required:
ldap_servers folder in your headquarters
SECURITY_MODE to
ldap. Set
LDAP_SERVER to the name of the above file you just created
Your orders file will now have
ldap enabled and point to the above configuration on which LDAP server to use for authentication. At this point, your service should be authenticating against LDAP.
Assigning the
SECURITY_MODE setting to
jwt requires additional settings in the headquarters. You can configure these settings globally or per-service.
JWT requires an authentication application:
Assigning the
SECURITY_MODE setting to
htpasswd requires an additional environment settings in the headquarters. You can set this globally or per-service. To get the appropriate string you can use the linux
htpasswd command like the following:
Copy the resulting string from above into a variable named
If you enable ldap or htpasswd authentication you can also limit a service to certain users. To enable per-user access to a service add a file to your service endpoint directory with the extension .acl. The file should contain a list of users separated by newlines.
Example (
The above service endpoint would only allow three users access - all others will be prompted to login.
Orders service repository can supply a
$HEALTHCHECK like:
Upon deployment of a service update, Starphleet will issue a GET request to http://{container_ip}:{PORT}/{HEALTHCHECK}, and will expect an HTTP 200 response within 60 seconds. The {PORT} in the preceding URL will have the value specified in your orders.
If you fail the check, the service doesn't deploy.
Starphleet lets you specify
#@ directives in shell scripts in order to schedule jobs in a container. These with in containers with services, so the most common thing you do is curl yourself:
The #@ directive is just a cron scheduling expression captured inside the script itself.
When Starphleet is installed on your local machine through vagrant the behavior of starphleet changes in a way that facilitates local development. Starphleet becomes your automated build-and-test environment. Starphleet will manage the following tasks for you:
Utilizing Starphleet as your build-and-test environment has the benefit of simplifying your workflow. This also allows you to test your code changes against a real Starphleet environment that mimics your production systems.
Installing the Devmode version of Starphleet doesn't require additional steps. Starphleet will automatically detect it has not been loaded on an Amazon instance and enable Devmode. To get Starphleet installed on your machine you can find installation instructions here.
There are several ways you can configure the environment for a local Starphleet deployment:
${HOME}/.starphleet and export the required variables.
At a minimum you will need an un-password protected SSH key associated with your Git account for any private repositories associated with your Headquarters. You will need the following environment variables:
Starphleet normally handles the deployment of all services after any change to the Git repos and/or orders envrionment. When running Starphleet locally in development mode the behavior of Starphleet alters a bit. These changes are:
The default behavior of Development mode links your working development directory all the way into the virtual containers. This is ideal if your build system typically uses something like gulp watch. You can run gulp watch and your changes will be realized immediately all the way inside the service container.
In some instances this behavior may be unfavorable. A few examples may be:
In these instances you may wish to unbind your development directory from the container. By adding a setting to your orders file you can change the behavior of Starphleet to instead detect changes as you save them in your development directory and run a full re-deploy of your containers automatically. To trigger this behavior you can add the following to your 'orders' inside your headquarters.
Some services depend on authentication. Starphleet automatically supports LDAP and htpasswd authentication. Services are written in such a way that they depend on HTTP headers that are provided by the authentication method. If you need to simulate authenticated services in development mode you can add the following variable to your orders file:
There may be instances where you want to force Starphleet to behave like a production environment locally on your machine. In those instances you can simply touch a file to disable Development Mode:
Starting your vagrant instance after it has been halted requires a few additional steps. Once your linux machine has booted you need to reboot the Starphleet service. Run the following commands to start the vagrant instance:
After installing your local development environment you may want to stop the local instance of Starphleet. It is important to use Vagrant to manage this process. Specifically, you will want to run the following command:
