# Special Interest Groups
12bb45
12bb45
CentOS clearly defines what a SIG (Special Interest Group) is : a group of people sharing interest into a specific task/tech area, and willing to build/test/deliver artifacts (like RPM packages) that CentOS users can then consume.
12bb45
12bb45
Each SIG *must* be approved by the CentOS board, and no action should be taken before that. Once approved and CentOS board meeting minutes published, we can (Infra and Releng) proceed with next steps :

## SIG onboarding
12bb45
We first need to create the SIG group in IPA (if it doesn't exist yet) and it shouldn't of course conflict with any existing.
12bb45
Requirements:
12bb45
12bb45
 * a user with `admin` right in IPA to be able to create the group
12bb45
 * a shell account on an enrolled machine (like `ipa-shell.iad2.centos.org` but can be any enrolled node within the @FEDORAPROJECT.ORG REALM (verify that you have a `valid` krb5 ticket or next steps will fail)
12bb45
 * a SIG name and description
12bb45
 * at least one SIG member that will be the chair (meaning that he'll be himself then able to add/remove other SIG users in that group
12bb45
12bb45
We can use either the IPA UI, or for automation purposes,just use the ipa cli.
12bb45
Basicall three commands:
12bb45
12bb45
  * `ipa group-add` : to create the group
12bb45
  * `ipa group-add-member` : to add the first user
12bb45
  * `ipa group-add-member-manager` : to grant "sponsor" right to sig chair, himself then able to add users
12bb45
12bb45
Here is a full output/example about creating the `sig-kmods` with one chair (valid IPA/FAS account) :
12bb45
12bb45
```
12bb45
# Defininig first some variables
12bb45
sig_name="sig-kmods"
12bb45
sig_description="The CentOS kmods SIG"
12bb45
sig_chair="pjgeorg"
12bb45
12bb45
# Now creating group and granting rights
12bb45
ipa group-add --desc="${sig_description}" --fasgroup ${sig_name}
12bb45
-----------------------
12bb45
Added group "sig-kmods"
12bb45
-----------------------
12bb45
  Group name: sig-kmods
12bb45
  Description: The CentOS kmods SIG
12bb45
  GID: 1494370508
12bb45
  FAS group: True
12bb45
12bb45
ipa group-add-member ${sig_name} --users=${sig_chair}
12bb45
  Group name: sig-kmods
12bb45
  Description: The CentOS kmods SIG
12bb45
  GID: 1494370508
12bb45
  Member users: pjgeorg
12bb45
  Membership managed by users: pjgeorg
12bb45
-------------------------
12bb45
Number of members added 1
12bb45
-------------------------
12bb45
12bb45
ipa group-add-member-manager ${sig_name} --users=${sig_chair}
12bb45
  Group name: sig-kmods
12bb45
  Description: The CentOS kmods SIG
12bb45
  GID: 1494370508
12bb45
  Membership managed by users: pjgeorg
12bb45
-------------------------
12bb45
Number of members added 1
12bb45
-------------------------
12bb45
12bb45
```
12bb45
If you need to add later more "sponsor" user, just repeat the `ipa group-add-member-manager` operation with new user.
12bb45
12bb45
12bb45
At this stage, the group should appear throug portal on https://accounts.centos.org
12bb45
12bb45
Worth knowing also that in the next minutes, an automatic email alias is created for the group following the naming convention `sig-<name>@centosproject.org` and that will automatically include all sig members email addresses, once added (and removed when removed)
12bb45
12bb45
Same for SIG members : an email alias following the `<user>@centosproject.org` alias is also created for all SIG members (and pointing to the email address they used when they registered their ACO/FAS account)
12bb45
More informations about this in the [Ansible postfix role](https://github.com/CentOS/ansible-role-postfix/blob/master/defaults/main.yml#L71)
12bb45
12bb45
While not fully needed, it's now a good idea to send mail to that new SIG to welcome them.
12bb45
Something like this : 
12bb45
12bb45
```
12bb45
To: <sig_name>@centosproject.org
12bb45
Subject: Welcome to the new <sig_name> SIG !
12bb45
12bb45
Hi,
12bb45
12bb45
This welcome email means that your new group <sig_name> was created and granted some management rights to at least the SIG Chair.
12bb45
The group should appear now on https://accounts.centos.org/group/<sig_name>/
12bb45
12bb45
Also worth knowing that each SIG member is also automatically granted an email alias following this convention : <user>@centosproject.org
12bb45
12bb45
If you have any needs, requests, feel free to contact the CentOS Infra and Releng team through https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issues.
12bb45
12bb45
Kind Regards,
12bb45

## Security GPG key for packages signing
12bb45
12bb45
Each SIG building RPM packages through https://cbs.centos.org community build service will need a GPG security key that will be then automatically be used by the signing service

!!! danger
5377d5
    Due to sensitive information ,the following steps are restricted to a very limited number of people and on a restrictive node that doesn't have *any* direct inbound connection. Worth knowing that such node isn't reachable directly by the central ansible automation system, so ansible automation has to be ran "on demand" by people taking following actions.
5377d5
5377d5
We first need to create a new GPG key on the signing machine , protected with a strong passphrase, that will be needed to unlock signing service/agent.
5377d5
5377d5
To generate a strong passphrase you can for example use `openssl rand -base64 30` (or any other strong/long passphrase generator)
5377d5
5377d5
Let's use the `sig-kmods` SIG as an example for the next steps (and of course adapt on each operation, manual step)
5377d5
We first need to ssh as the signing user (important for TTY) on the signing service machine. Then we can proceed like this : 
5377d5
5377d5
```
5377d5
# Let's define some variables first
5377d5
sig_name="CentOS Kmods SIG"
5377d5
sig_url="https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Kmods"
5377d5
sig_key_passphrase="Of_Course_A_Real_Passphrase_generated_as_described_above" 
5377d5
# Creating the key in keyring

5377d5
gpg: key 7AE06D54 marked as ultimately trusted
5377d5
```
5377d5
5377d5
As we can see the key was created but we have first to unlock it now (in gpg-agent) with the generated passphrase, otherwise CBS signing service will be blocked (replace obviously gpg key id with the output above) :
5377d5
5377d5
```
5377d5
# Unlocking the key
5377d5
key_id=$(gpg --list-keys | egrep -B 1 "${sig_name}"|head -n 1|awk '{print $2}'|cut -f 2 -d '/')
5377d5
test_file=$(mktemp)
5377d5
timeout 30 gpg --batch --sign -b --use-agent --local-user ${key_id} ${test_file} && rm ${test_file} || echo "Signing failed"
5377d5
```
5377d5
5377d5
Now that CBS signing service is ready, we have to export the new key and so push it to the website (so that people can see it publicly to verify and also have it embedded in a centos-release-* rpm pkg : 
5377d5
5377d5
```
5377d5
# extract key
5377d5
gpg --export --armor ${key_id} > /var/tmp/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-SIG-$(echo ${sig_name/CentOS/}|sed 's/SIG//')
5377d5
gpg --with-fingerprint /var/tmp/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-SIG-$(echo ${sig_name/CentOS/}|sed 's/SIG//')
5377d5
5377d5

5377d5
5377d5
Now either submit a PR or directly do a git commit/push to [CentOS.org git repository](https://git.centos.org/centos/centos.org) and key will be available on website automatically after.
5377d5
Simply drop the `RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-SIG-<name>` under /keys/ directory and update /keys.md to add the link to download the key and show fingerprint
5377d5
5377d5
Here is the Kmods SIG [commit](https://git.centos.org/centos/centos.org/c/fc51c0fc590ebdc734906343ccc392298fda930d?branch=master) given a reference
5377d5
5377d5
!!! warning
5377d5
    Don't forget to also put the gpg passphrase in the git-crypted pkistore as it will be needed each time that we'll have to unlock the gpg keys in keyring (like on a reboot of the signing machine/service)
