Hi guys,
Few months ago I started working on small Sinatra app[3] that leverage
Sidekiq[1] framework to run certain Deltacloud jobs on background.
While all this effort was something like a PoC of 'tracker' app, it
turns out it could be changed a bit to serve as a Deltacloud UI with
background jobs :-)
This app use mounted[2] approach and mounts Deltacloud API as a Rack
app. Using this you can do following:
* Add your accounts (all deltacloud providers)
* Import provider images for accounts (as async task)
* Create an SSH key/password/etc and assign it to the image
* Launch the image and choose what scripts should be pushed into instance
Then this app will do following:
* Push a script into the instance once SSH is ready
* Connect to the instance via SSH and execute 'vmstat' to gather some
basic metrics (CPU, memory ;) (no UI for this right now ;)
I really sux in UI design, so I used twitter bootstrap CSS to provide
some minimal UI for all this.
I hope it could be useful for some, and provide an easy way for
launching instances in cloud and pushing scripts into that instances :)
I don't have any plans on extending this app, but I welcome all
ideas/suggestions/patches/issues :-)
