Choose Your Own Infrastructure

A library to ask an end-user to choose an infrastructure (AWS, OpenStack, etc), region, and login credentials.

This library was extracted from inception-server for reuse by bosh-bootstrap. It might also be useful to your own CLI applications that need to ask a user to give you their infrastructure credentials/region so your application can control their infrastructure (say via fog).

When you use the library, your application will attempt to guess what infrastructure/credentials the user will use (via ~/.fog) and then fall back to prompting for remaining information:

Auto-detected infrastructure API credentials at ~/.fog (override with $FOG)
1. AWS (default)
2. AWS (starkandwayne)
3. Alternate credentials
Choose infrastructure:  3

1. AWS
2. OpenStack
Choose infrastructure:  1


Using provider aws:

1. *US East (Northern Virginia) Region (us-east-1)
2. US West (Oregon) Region (us-west-2)
3. US West (Northern California) Region (us-west-1)
4. EU (Ireland) Region (eu-west-1)
5. EU (Frankfurt) Region (eu-central-1)
6. Asia Pacific (Singapore) Region (ap-southeast-1)
7. Asia Pacific (Sydney) Region (ap-southeast-2)
8. Asia Pacific (Tokyo) Region (ap-northeast-1)
9. South America (Sao Paulo) Region (sa-east-1)
10. China (Beijing) Region (cn-north-1)
Choose AWS region: 2

Access key: KEYGOESHERE
Secret key: SECRETGOESHERE

Confirming: Using aws/us-west-2

provider_cli = Cyoi::Cli::Provider.new([settings_dir])
provider_cli.execute!
settings = YAML.load_file(File.join(settings_dir, "settings.yml"))

settings["provider"]["name"] # aws, openstack
settings["provider"]["region"] # us-east-1
settings["provider"]["credentials"] # aws or openstack URLs & credentials

To use as a stand-alone CLI, install the rubygem:

$ gem install cyoi

To use it as a library within your own application, add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "cyoi"

1. Fork it
2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
4. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
5. Create new Pull Request
6. Send @drnic a big bag of Doritos
