Paper cuts

This is a log of things that have hurt us in the current environment that while not necessarily being technical debt, could possibly be things for us to discuss and possibly fix in the future.

What it is

Problem: Terraform doesn't play nicely with pre-existing infrastructure.

Solution: Officially there isn't one - but here's a work-around that does the trick.

Summary

• Declare a new, temporary resource in your Terraform plan that is nearly identical to the extant resource.
• Apply the plan, thus instantiating the temporary "twinned" resource and building a state file.

The talk slides are at https://speakerdeck.com/mpasternacki/a-continuous-packaging-pipeline; a longer blog post will be written soon.

README

Services declared as oneshot are expected to take some action and exit immediatelly (thus, they are not really services, no running processes remain). A common pattern for these type of service is to be defined by a setup and a teardown action.

Let's create a example foo service that when started creates a file, and when stopped it deletes it.

Define setup/teardown actions

Create executable file /opt/foo/setup-foo.sh:

ohadlevy

#! /usr/bin/ruby

# Query Foreman
# example usage:
#
# query for hosts
# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
# $myhosts = foreman("hosts","facts.domain ~ lab")
# returns all hosts which have lab as part of their domain.

Description

Simple Dashing widget (and associated job) to display Pingdom checks.

##Dependencies

rest-client

Add it to dashing's gemfile:

ollyg

filter {
  # strip the syslog PRI part and create facility and severity fields.
  # the original syslog message is saved in field %{syslog_raw_message}.
  # the extracted PRI is available in the %{syslog_pri} field.
  #
  # You get %{syslog_facility_code} and %{syslog_severity_code} fields.
  # You also get %{syslog_facility} and %{syslog_severity} fields if the
  # use_labels option is set True (the default) on syslog_pri filter.
  grok {
    type => "syslog-relay"
