Intro

A collection of Packer templates for creating Re-core ready images for AWS, Digitalocean, KVM and LXC.

Usage

FIrst populate the master ssh key that will be used by Re-mote.

# On dev environments we might use our local key
$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub > http/authorized_keys

Now head on and build the image of the hypervisor you will be using:

# Build Ubuntu 20.04 KVM image (use -var iso_url=/path/to/iso if you have pre-downloaded iso)
$ read -s password
$ packer build -var 'user=<your user>' -var "password=${password}" -var "recipe=re-cipes.profiles/re-ops-image" src/kvm/ubuntu-20.04/ubuntu-20.04-server-amd64.json

# Build Ubuntu 20.04 Mate desktop varient
$ read -s password
$ packer build -var 'user=<your user>' -var "password=${password}" -var "recipe=re-cipes.profiles/re-ops-image" src/kvm/ubuntu-20.04/ubuntu-20.04-desktop-amd64.json

# Build ubuntu 20.04 LXD container
$ packer build -var 'user=<your user>' src/lxd/ubuntu-20.04/ubuntu-20.04-server-amd64.json

# Build Ubuntu 18.04 AMI
$ packer build -var 'aws_access_key=<access-key>' -var 'aws_secret_key=<secret-key>' src/aws/ubuntu-18.04/template.json

# Build ubuntu 18.04 Digitalocean image
$ packer build -var 'api_token=<your token>' src/digital/ubuntu-18.04/template.json

Image provisioning

Usine Re-cipes for provisioning an image:

packer build -var 'user=<your user>' -var "recipe=re-cipes.profiles/elasticsearch" -var "password=${password}" src/kvm/ubuntu-20.04/ubuntu-20.04-server-amd64.json

Setting image hostname:

packer build -var 'user=<your user>' -var "host=elasticsearch" -var "password=${password}" src/kvm/ubuntu-20.04/ubuntu-20.04-server-amd64.json

Image importing (KVM only)

$ ./scripts/import.sh 20.04 server

# We can also specify import domain name and volume
$ ./scripts/import.sh 20.04 server elasticsearch /datastore/images
