Block Until Filesystem Mounted

what

• Sleep until /mnt/remote is mounted
• Remove the VOLUME for /mnt/remote

why

• Previous command is run in the background
• Need to operate asynchronously as we don't know when the filesystem will be mounted
• The VOLUME statement caused /mnt/remote to always report as mountpoint even if it was not mounted

Swap out s3fs with goofys

• Replaced s3fs with goofys

why

• goofys is better alternative to s3fs written in Go that natively supports assumed roles

Robust Bootstrapping

what

• Bootstrap directly from a docker container (inherited or not)

  docker run --rm cloudposse/geodesic:dev | bash -s dev
  

• Install the wrapper from a docker container
• Install the wrapper into /usr/local/bin/$cluster to support multiple installs pinned at differnet releases
• Setup all scaffolding from a docker container

  mkdir -p /tmp/test
  docker run -e CLUSTER=test.cloudposse.org \
   -e DOCKER_IMAGE=cloudposse/test.cloudposse.org \
   -e DOCKER_TAG=dev  \
       cloudposse/geodesic:dev -c new-project | tar -xv -C /tmp/test
  

  
  
  
• Support --env-file so you can use the same container in multiple contexts (e.g. dev & prod)

why

• Consolidate toolchain to run on a single tool docker
• Support multiple concurrent installs of different releases of geodesic
• No dependency on curl or storing the bootstrap script anywhere

Update packages

what

• Updated package versions

why

• Latest versions

Add kops manifest template

what

• Added default.yaml kops template

why

• Support parameterized templates for Kubernetes cluster creation

what

• Use special bash 3.2+ feature for outputting utf8 characters ($'\uXXXX')
• Explicitly set locale (sorry, hardcoded to en_US.utf8)

why

• This seems to fix the prompt line wrapping problems
• \[....\] does not help with utf8 characters (only ansi)

What

• Update Terraform version to 0.10.7

Why

• Support the latest Terraform features

what

• Check if AWS configs exist before attempting to call use-profile

why

• See: https://github.com/cloudposse/geodesic/issues/73
• Without this fix, if AWS cli was not configured, the shell would immediately exit
• Bug affected new users (cold-start problem)

What

• Manage terraform apply parallelism

Why

• Default parallelism level hits aws api request limit on huge terraform configs.
