Installation

Install just this plugin:

pip install edwh-multipass-plugin

But probably you want to install the whole edwh package:

pipx install edwh[plugins,omgeving]
# or
pipx install edwh[multipass]

if you want to use the edwh command line tool with just the multipass plugin:

pipx install edwh
edwh plugin.add multipass

mp.fix-host

aka mp.fix-dns

Fixes the ip adres in the hosts file for a multipass instance.

When issuing on the first run fix-host will add an entry to your hosts file, and you can enter different hostnames you want to register for the instance.

mp.fix-host dockers -h dockers.local -h delen.dockers.local -h web2py.dockers.local ...

After this initial registration, you can update the ip address of the instance by running mp.fix-host dockers again. Be aware that you cannot register new hostnames after the initial registration. Update your /etc/hosts file instead.

mp.install

Installs multipass on an ubuntu based machine if not already installed.

mp.prepare

Allows you to ssh into a multipass instance, so you are able to run fabric commands against it.

mp.prepare will generate a multipass_keyfile ~/.ssh/multipass.key (if not already present) and add the public key to the multipass instance's authorized_keys file.

mp.prepares automatically runs mp.install.
