Demonstrate lxc clone via overlayfs and ubuntu-cloud clone hook supporting user-data.
###
### Fast cloning with overlayfs, and specifying user-data on clone
### blog post:
### http://ubuntu-smoser.blogspot.com/2013/08/lxc-with-fast-cloning-via-overlayfs-and.html
###
### Eventually, this should make it into 13.10 and the stable lxc ppa
### https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-lxc/+archive/stable
### But right now you'll have to use the daily ppa.

parse_shell_config: basically reads a "shell config" in python by running it with bash, and then reading the variables declared. It returns an dict with the variables found after running that code. the point of using this is that some software has "config" in shell format (ie, 'openrc' in openstack).

smoser / distro_info_dict
Created October 1, 2013 19:54
extract data from distro_info to a dict. Quite possibly this should just read from /usr/share/distro-info/ubuntu.csv instead of using distro_info library. However, this seems functional for what I needed.
#!/usr/bin/python
import distro_info
def get_ubuntu_info(date=None):
# this returns a sorted list of dicts
# each dict has information about an ubuntu release.
# Notably absent is any date information (release or eol)
# its harder than you'd like to get at data via the distro_info library

upget: ubuntu pastebin getUbuntu pastebin requires login to download raw files. Thats annoying.This works around that. Only works for files pasted with 'plain' type (ie no syntax highlighting).

Example ~/.euca directory contents for AWS (EC2, IAM ...). In euca2ools 3.0+, .eucarc is deprecated, replaced by ~/.euca directory.

This is example ~/.euca contents for a user. Documentation on this is found at upstream. See also example in source.

  • defaults.ini: default region and user config (default-*) configuration
  • myaws-user.ini: example user stanza (providing credentials). This should be readable only by you (chmod go-r myuser.ini).
  • generate-aws: script to generate the aws.ini file as it is repetitive.
