bosh-simple-with-link

This adds a BOSH link to share the address and credentials for the Spacebears service with other BOSH jobs in a deployment. This allows the service to be used inside a private network, without exposing a route (cf. bosh-simple-with-routing.

The only change to add this BOSH link is the additional provides section in the spacebears_job spec file.

For more information about BOSH links, see BOSH Links: Why and How and the official BOSH links documentation.

Setting up release

(deploy.sh automates these steps)

Get the Golang distribution and add to blobs

export go_pkg_remote=https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.9.linux-amd64.tar.gz

wget "${go_pkg_remote}" -O ./tmp/go-linux-amd64.tar.gz
echo "${go_pkg_remote}" > ./tmp/go-version.txt

bosh add-blob ./tmp/go-linux-amd64.tar.gz go-linux-amd64.tar.gz
bosh add-blob ./tmp/go-version.txt go-version.txt

Package up our source code and add to blobs

tar -cvzf ./tmp/spacebears_src.tgz -C ../src/ spacebears/

bosh add-blob ./tmp/spacebears_src.tgz spacebears_src.tgz

Create & upload release

bosh create-release --force
bosh upload-release

Deploy (Lite)

If this is a fresh environment, be sure to upload a proper stemcell

bosh upload-stemcell https://s3.amazonaws.com/bosh-core-stemcells/warden/bosh-stemcell-3445.7-warden-boshlite-ubuntu-trusty-go_agent.tgz

The bosh deployment manifest in manifest/lite_manifest.yml is setup to work with a default deployed BOSH Lite using the bosh-deployment warden cloud-config

Deploy

bosh -d bosh_simple deploy manifests/lite_manifest.yml --no-redact

Troubleshooting

bosh -d bosh_simple ssh spacebears_db_node
# hope over to root for monit and other commands
sudo su -
