Version Build Status Issues

This is a skeleton repository that can be used for testing or as a quick way for you to incorporate Nubis into your own project.

Prerequisites

If you are new to the Nubisproject you will need to set up some prerequisites.

Get the code

Next grab the latest release, extract it and copy the nubis directory into your code base.

Setup your shell

These are convenience steps to make the following commands a bit more manageable. Be sure to replace <login> with your login name. You may also need to adjust the account name and number if you are not building in the Nubis training account.

ACCOUNT_NAME='nubis-training'; ACCOUNT_NUMBER='517826968395'; LOGIN='<login>'

alias vault-exec="aws-vault exec ${ACCOUNT_NAME}-admin --"

NUBIS_DOCKER=( 'docker' 'run' \
                '-u' "$UID:$(id -g)" \
                '--interactive' \
                '--tty' \
                '--env-file' "$(echo ~)/.docker_env" \
                '-v' "$PWD:/nubis/data" )

Build the project

Run nubis-builder and it will output an AMI id for you to use.

NUBIS_BUILD_VERSION=$(curl -k -s -S \
https://registry.hub.docker.com/v1/repositories/nubisproject/nubis-builder/tags \
| jq --raw-output '.[]["name"]' | \
sort --field-separator=. --numeric-sort --reverse | \
grep -m 1 "^v")

vault-exec "${NUBIS_DOCKER[@]}" -e GIT_COMMIT_SHA=$(git rev-parse HEAD) \
    "nubisproject/nubis-builder:${NUBIS_BUILD_VERSION}"

Configure the deployment

Create a nubis/terraform/terraform.tfvars file by copying the terraform.tfvars-dist file and editing the parameter values. More detailed instructions can be found here. NOTE: Be sure to use the AMI id you got from the build step.

cp nubis/terraform/terraform.tfvars-dist nubis/terraform/terraform.tfvars
vi nubis/terraform/terraform.tfvars

Deploy the application

You are now ready to deploy your application. Once you have tested, be sure to destroy the deployment to avoid unnecessary cost in AWS.

NUBIS_DEPLOY_VERSION=$(curl -k -s -S \
https://registry.hub.docker.com/v1/repositories/nubisproject/nubis-release/tags \
| jq --raw-output '.[]["name"]' | \
sort --field-separator=. --numeric-sort --reverse | \
grep -m 1 "^v")

vault-exec "${NUBIS_DOCKER[@]}" \
    "nubisproject/nubis-deploy:${NUBIS_DEPLOY_VERSION}" plan

vault-exec "${NUBIS_DOCKER[@]}" \
    "nubisproject/nubis-deploy:${NUBIS_DEPLOY_VERSION}" apply

View the site

Terraform creates a route53 hosted zone and a cname record. And the resulting url will be part of the outputs:

Outputs:

  address = https://www.<service_name>-<env>.<env>.<region>.<account_name>.nubis.allizom.org/

Login to the web instance

If you have only one EC2 instance and your ssh keys are on the jumphost, you can login by:

ssh -A -t <login>@jumphost.<env>.core.<region>.<account-name>.nubis.allizom.org \
"ssh -A -t ubuntu@<service_name>.service.consul"

Destroy the deployment

Lastly, clean up the deployment which helps reduce cost , and it is just tidy.

vault-exec "${NUBIS_DOCKER[@]}" \
    "nubisproject/nubis-deploy:${NUBIS_DEPLOY_VERSION}" destroy
