  • Cloud Image Information Provider for RunDeck
  • Polls Cloud Provider API's for available images

Supported Providers

  • DigitalOcean

Background

This project's initial purpose is/was to retrieve a list of available base images to feed into a RunDeck job. It can be tedious to update jobs after a new image is created. You can also pass a filter query parameter which will search (case insensitive) for matching images. You can pass multiple things to search for using commas to seperate them, e.g. ^ubuntu,^centos

NOTE: This API should NOT be exposed to the world unless you plan to secure it with a reverse-proxy or something. It is intended to only be bound to localhost on the same server as RunDeck.

Running as a Service

You'll likely want to run this as a service, SystemD or Upstart will likely be your friend in this regard.

Security

You should lock down permissions on all configuration files in this project to only the user which this runs as...

To run this project securely, DON'T run it as the RunDeck user.

Caching

This leans on rack-cache to serve as a caching mechanism. The objective here was to make sure we don't pummel the Chef API with redundant queries.

  • Timeout can be configured via the cache_timeout setting. Default: 30 seconds

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'cloudimages-rundeck'
