rasactl

rasactl deploys Rasa X / Enterprise on your local or remote Kubernetes cluster and manages Rasa X / Enterprise deployments.

Features

deploy Rasa X / Enterprise

You can use rasactl to deploy Rasa X / Enterprise on your local machine or a VM in one of the major cloud providers.

(check the Prerequisites section)
upgrade Rasa X / Enterprise

Upgrade/change configuration for an existing Rasa X deployment.
stop/delete/start a running Rasa X / Enterprise deployment

Manage the lifecycle of your deployment: you can stop, delete or start one of the Rasa X deployments managed by rasactl.
connect a local Rasa Server to Rasa X / Enterprise

You can use your local Rasa Open Source server along with Rasa X / Enterprise. rasactl will prepare configuration for Rasa OSS and Rasa X and run the Rasa Open Source server on your local machine.

(requires kind and Rasa OSS installed locally)
use a local Rasa project along Rasa X / Enterprise deployment

Use your local Rasa project along with Rasa X / Enterprise deployment. The rasactl provides an easy way to use your local Rasa project along with Rasa X / Enterprise.

This setup was previously referred to as "local mode" in older Rasa X versions.

(requires kind and Rasa X >= 1.0.0)

Prerequisites

Kubernetes cluster >= 1.14+

or
kind (for local mode)

(You can use the REI to install all required components on your local machine or a VM.)

Before you start

Below you can find several things that are good to know and keep in mind when you use rasactl.

It is possible to configure multiple deployments with rasactl. A rasactl command will always execute an operation on a single deployment. Here is the order in which rasactl determines which deployment to use:
1. A deployment name passed as an argument in CLI, e.g. rasactl status deployment-name, you can use rasactl help command to see usage example for a given command.
2. rasactl checks if a .rasactl file exists in a current working directory. If so, the deployment defined in the file is used. This .rasactl file is created automatically when the rasactl start --project command is executed.
3. rasactl checks if a default deployment is configured in the rasactl.yaml configuration file, if yes, then the default deployment is used. The default deployment can be set by using the rasactl config use-deployment command.
4. If there is only one deployment, then it's used.
You can use the rasactl list command to check which deployment is used as the current one.

The rasactl delete command requires explicitly passing a deployment name as an argument.
rasactl uses the rasa-x-helm chart to deploy Rasa X / Enterprise.
rasactl deploys Rasa X / Enterprise without a Rasa Open Source server. It's up to you to connect Rasa OSS with Rasa X / Enterprise deployment.
rasactl uses a Kubernetes context from the kubeconfig file, if you want to switch Kubernetes cluster you have to use kubectl or other tools that change the active context for the kubeconfig.

Values File

The rasactl uses the rasa-x-helm chart to deploy Rasa X / Enterprise, which means you can use the helm chart values to configure deployment. The rasactl enables template usage for the values file so that it's possible to use the Go template and Sprig function within the value file, e.g.

# values.yaml
rasax:
  podLabels:
    rasactl: "true"
    test_version: {{ env "RASACTL_TEST_VERSION" }}
    test_template: {{ coalesce 0 1 2 }}

Configuration

Environment variables

Name	Description
`RASACTL_AUTH_USER`	The username that is used to authorize to Rasa X / Enterprise
`RASACTL_AUTH_PASSWORD`	The password that is used to authorize to Rasa X / Enterprise
`RASACTL_RASA_X_URL`	Set Rasa X / Enterprise URL. By default, the URL is detected automatically, but if you use a custom configuration and you wanna define Rasa X URL explicitly you can use the env variable. The `RASACTL_RASA_X_URL` overrides Rasa X URL for all deployment.
`RASACTL_RASA_X_URL_<DEPLOYMENT_NAME>`	Set Rasa X / Enterprise URL for a given deployment, e.g. if a deployment name is `my-deployment`, then you can use the `RASACTL_RASA_X_URL_MY_DEPLOYMENT` environment variable to define the Rasa X URL for the `my-deployment`.
`RASACTL_KUBECONFIG`	Absolute path to the kubeconfig file (default "`$HOME/.kube/config`")
`RASACTL_SKIP_DOCKER_VERSION_CHECK`	Don't check if the Docker engine version is incompatible with rasactl. Default is `false`.

Configuration file

Below you can find an example of the configuration file and parameters that can be defined, by default configuration file is located in $HOME/.rasactl.yaml.

# Deployment name that is used as a current deployment (default).
# You can use the `rasactl config use-deployment` command to set the current deployment.
current-deployment: my-deployment

# Name of the kubeconfig context to use
kube-context: ""

Examples:
  # Stop a Rasa X deployment with the 'my-deployment' name.
  $ rasactl stop my-deployment

  # Stop a currently active Rasa X deployment.
  # The command stops the currently active deployment.
  # You can use the 'rasactl list' command to check which deployment is currently used.
  $ rasactl stop

Flags:
  -h, --help   help for stop

The `delete` command

The delete command deletes a Rasa X / Enterprise deployment.

You can use the --prune flag to remove a namespace where Rasa X deployment is located.

Notice If you want to free resources, or temporarily you don't need to run Rasa X deployment, you can stop a Rasa X / Enterprise deployment instead of deleting it. Stopping the Rasa X deployment will free resources, but keep the current configuration.

Usage:
  rasactl delete DEPLOYMENT-NAME [flags]

Aliases:
  delete, del

Examples:
  # Delete the 'my-example' deployment.
  $ rasactl delete my-example

  -h, --help    help for delete
      --prune   if true, delete a namespace with a project

The `list` command

List all deployments.

$ rasactl list
CURRENT	NAME         	STATUS 	RASA PRODUCTION	RASA WORKER	ENTERPRISE	VERSION
       	hopeful-haibt	Running	2.8.1          	2.8.1      	inactive  	0.42.0
*      	vibrant-yalow	Running	2.8.1          	2.8.1      	inactive  	0.42.0

The * in the CURRENT field indicates a deployment that is used as default. It means that every time when you execute rasactl command without defining the deployment name, the deployment marked with * is used.

A deployment is marked as CURRENT if:

there is a .rasactl file that includes a deployment name in your current working directory. The file is automatically created if you run the rasactl start command with the --project or --project-path flag
there is only one deployment
you set the current deployment by using the rasactl config use-deployment command

The `status` command

Show the status of a deployment.

Usage:
  rasactl status [DEPLOYMENT-NAME] [flags]

Examples:
  # Show status for the 'example' deployment.
  $ rasactl status example

  # Show status for the 'example' deployment along with details.
  $ rasactl status example --details

Flags:
  -d, --details         show detailed information, such as running pods, helm chart status
  -h, --help            help for status
  -o, --output string   output format. One of: json|table (default "table")

Example output:

$ rasactl status vibrant-yalow
Name:                   	vibrant-yalow
Status:                 	Running

Rasa production version:	2.8.1
Rasa worker version:    	2.8.1
Project path:           	/home/ubuntu/test

The `config use-deployment` command

Sets the current-deployment in the configuration file.

If you have multiple Rasa X deployments, and you are not in a project directory you have to explicitly define the deployment name during command execution. You can define a deployment that is used as a current one by using the rasa config use-deployment command.

Usage:
  rasactl config use-deployment DEPLOYMENT-NAME [flags]

Examples:
  # Set the 'example' deployment as the current deployment.
  $ rasactl config use-deployment example

Flags:
  -h, --help   help for use-deployment

The `connect rasa` command

Run a local Rasa Open Source server and connect it to a Rasa X deployment.

The command prepares a configuration that's required to connect Rasa X deployment and run a local Rasa server.

It's required to have the 'rasa' command accessible by rasactl.

The command works only if Rasa X deployment runs on a local Kubernetes cluster managed with 'kind'.

Usage:
  rasactl connect rasa [DEPLOYMENT-NAME] [flags]

Examples:
  # Connect Rasa Server to Rasa X deployment.
  $ rasactl connect rasa

  # Run a separate rasa server for the Rasa X worker environment.
  $ rasactl connect rasa --run-separate-worker

  # Pass extra arguments to rasa server.
  $ rasactl connect rasa --extra-args="--debug"

Flags:
      --extra-args strings    extra arguments for Rasa server
  -h, --help                  help for rasa
  -p, --port int              port to run the Rasa server at (default 5005)
      --run-separate-worker   runs a separate Rasa server for the worker environment

The `auth login` command

Log in to Rasa X / Enterprise.

auth login stores credentials in an external credentials store, such as the native keychain of the operating system.

The following external credential stores will be used:

On macOS: Apple macOS Keychain Access
On Linux: pass
On Windows: Microsoft Windows Credential Manager

You can pass credentials via environment variables:

RASACTL_AUTH_USER - username
RASACTL_AUTH_PASSWORD - password

If the environment variables are used, credentials stored in a native keychain are not used.

Usage:
  rasactl auth login [DEPLOYMENT-NAME] [flags]

Examples:
  # Login to the 'my-deployment' Rasa X / Enterprise deployment.
  $ rasactl auth login my-deployment

  # Login to Rasa X / Enterprise (login to the currently active deployment).
  $ rasactl auth login

  # Provide a password using STDIN.
  # You can login non-interactively by using the --password-stdin flag to provide a password through STDIN.
  # Using STDIN prevents the password from ending up in the shell’s history.
  $ rasactl auth login --username me --password-stdin

Flags:
  -h, --help              help for login
  -p, --password string   password
      --password-stdin    read the password from stdin
  -u, --username string   username

Notice For Linux, pass is used as credential storage. pass must be installed and configured before you use the rasactl auth command. Below you can find an example of pass installation and configuration.

pass installation and configuration for Linux Ubuntu.

Install pass.

sudo apt-get install pass

Examples of usage

Run Rasa X / Enterprise with a local Rasa Server

It is possible to run a Rasa X / Enterprise deployment with a local rasa server. The following example shows how to connect a local rasa server that is installed in a Python environment to a running Rasa X / Enterprise deployment.

Install rasa on your local machine. More information on how to install rasa you can find in the docs.
Activate a Python environment with installed rasa (this step is optional if you don't use a Python environment).

$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ rasa --version

Run Rasa X / Enterprise with mounted a local Rasa project

The example shows how to run Rasa X / Enterprise deployment with mounted a local rasa project.

Install rasa on your local machine. More information on how to install rasa you can find in the docs.
Create a rasa project

$ rasa init

Start a new Rasa X / Enterprise deployment.

$ rasactl start --project

(The rasa start --project command has to be executed in a directory with rasa project. You can use the --project-path flag to pass an absolute path to a rasa project.)

Open Rasa X / Enterprise in a web browser.

$ rasactl open

Upgrade Rasa X / Enterprise version

The following example shows how to upgrade Rasa X / Enterprise version for a deployment that already exists.

Create the values.yaml file with a specific version.

# values.yaml
rasax:
  tag: "0.42.0"
eventService:
  tag: "0.42.0"
dbMigrationService:
  tag: "0.42.0"

Run upgrade.

$ rasactl upgrade deployment-name --values-file values.yaml

Deploy Rasa X in one of the public cloud providers

The following example shows how to deploy Rasa X in one of the major cloud providers. In the example, GCP (Google Cloud Platform) is used.

Create a VM using a Linux base image. You can find detailed information on how to create a VM here.
Install rasactl on the VM
Start a new deployment by executing the rasactl start command.
After several minutes you should see details of your deployment.

$ rasactl start
∙∙∙ Ready!

╭ Rasa X ────────────────────────────────╮
│                                        │
│    URL: http://35.184.183.164:30012    │
│    Rasa X version: 0.42.0              │
│    Rasa X password: rasaxlocal         │
│                                        │
╰────────────────────────────────────────╯

Important! The Rasa X / Enterprise deployment will be exposed to the public on one of the service node ports (30000-30100). Remember to add a rule to firewall configuration that allows for access to the Rasa X deployment.
