Scripts for DO marketplace image

Hasura DigitalOcean Marketplace

This repository contains build automation scripts for Hasura Image on DigitalOcean Marketplace.

Getting Started

Packer is a tool which helps to automate the entire build process from a single source configuration file.

The template.json is the single source configuration packer will use to build and snapshot the droplet. Some variables may need to be customized to suit any future updates.

To run this the scripts that this template uses, you'll need to install Packer and create a DigitalOcean personal access token and then add the token in the variables.json.

cp variables.sample.json variables.json
# add token to variables.json

and then run

packer build -var-file=variables.json template.json

It will do the following:

• Create a build droplet.
• Clean and verify the droplet.
• Shut down and snapshot the droplet.

automate the build process

The process is outlined in https://github.com/digitalocean/marketplace-partners#getting-started

Hasura specific steps include placing https://github.com/hasura/do-marketplace/blob/master/setup-hasura.sh at https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/modules.html#scripts-per-instance

The overall process includes

• Creating a new droplet on DigitalOcean (minimum possible conf)
• Keep the setup-hasura.sh script at the right location
• Clean up the droplet and run some checks
• Logout from droplet, shut down and snapshot
• Create a new droplet from the snapshot
• See if everything is fine
• Submit the snapshot to digitalocean

We need to automate everything until snapshotting using Packer: https://github.com/digitalocean/marketplace-partners/tree/master/packer

make the install script idempotent

Otherwise snapshotting droplets will download them again.
