Alibabacloud actuator

The command allows to directly interact with the alibabacloud actuator.

To build the alibabacloud-actuator binary:

$ make alibabacloud-actuator

Prerequisities

All the machine manifests assume existence for various Alibabacloud resources such as vpc, security groups, etc. :

Create Alibabacloud ECS instance based on machine manifest

The examples/userdata.yml secret encodes the following user data:

#!/bin/bash
echo "Hello Alibaba" > /tmp/test

The environment variables ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID and ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET must to be set.

$ export ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<YOUR_ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID>
$ export ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET=<YOUR_ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET>

$ ./bin/alibabacloud-actuator create --logtostderr -m examples/machine-with-user-data.yaml -u examples/userdata.yml
Machine creation was successful! InstanceID: i-bp117zgballjltfnl3up```

Once the alibabacloud instance is created you can run `$ cat /tmp/test` to verify it contains the `Ahoj` string.

## Test if alibabacloud instance exists based on machine manifest

```sh
$./bin/alibabacloud-actuator exists --logtostderr -m examples/machine-with-user-data.yaml -u examples/userdata.yml
I0815 11:15:30.875728   45782 actuator.go:389] alibabacloud-actuator-testing-machine: Checking if machine exists
I0815 11:15:31.514626   45782 actuator.go:402] alibabacloud-actuator-testing-machine: Instance exists as "i-bp117zgballjltfnl3up"
Underlying machine's instance exists.

Delete alibabacloud instance based on machine manifest

$ ./bin/alibabacloud-actuator delete --logtostderr -m examples/machine-with-user-data.yaml
