Experimental AWS deployer

This is merely a playground. Unfinished, imperfect, sloppy code. For educational purpose only.

It gets aws credentials and create a t2.micro instance with an image of wordpress from Bitnami (while recommended vm size is actually m3.medium), using ruby aws-sdk (api v3).

Install

Get the code and

git clone https://github.com/mose/imgdeployer.git
cd imgdeployer/
bundle install

Then launch it

rackup

or in dev with a reload at each code change

shotgun

Run in docker

git clone https://github.com/mose/imgdeployer.git
cd imgdeployer/
docker build -t mose/imgdeployer .
docker run -d -v "$PWD:/src" -p 9393:9393 mose/imgdeployer:latest -o 0.0.0.0
open http://localhost:9393

So what now?

Various improvements could be done:

write some damn tests
add a timer on operations
add a way to display admin password directly, as the bitnami method requires to log in aws console (but it's quite well described in the wordpress template click on bottom right)
get this working with vue.js or react rather than just jQuery
show more metadata information about the created VM
display some random cat pictures slideshow while it's initializing, so the user can get some love
keep an audit log of operations
persist user creds somehow
