Ops can integrate with your existing Amazon Web Services (AWS) account. You can use the Ops CLI to create and upload an image in your AWS account. Once, you have uploaded the image, you can also create an instance with a particular image using CLI.

Pre-requisites

1. Ensure your ~/.aws/credentials file is setup correctly - you can use the 'aws ec2' cli tools to verify this.

2. Create a bucket in S3 storage for ami creation.

Image Operations

Create Image

If you have already created an Ops project, you can update your existing config.json. You need to add CloudConfig which mentions specific details like ProjectID, BucketName.

{
    "CloudConfig" :{
        "ProjectID" :"prod-1000",
        "Zone": "us-west-1",
        "BucketName":"my-s3-bucket"
    }
}

Once, you have updated config.json you can create an image in AWS with the following command:

For creating an image using a particular package, you need to provide the package name to ops image create command with -p option.

$ ops image create -t aws -c config.json -p node_v11.5.0 -a ex.js

List Images

You can list existing images on AWS with ops image list.

$ ops image list -t aws -z us-west-1
​
+----------------+-----------+--------------------------+
|      NAME      |  STATUS   |         CREATED          |

+----------------+-----------+--------------------------+

Delete Image

ops image delete -i <imagename> can be used to delete an image from AWS.

$ ops delete image -i nanos-main-image

Instance Operations

Create Instance

After the successful creation of an image in AWS, we can create an instance from an existing image.

$ ops instance create -i <image_name>

Alternatively, you can pass project-id and zone with cli options.

$ ops instance create -p prod-1000 -z us-west-2 -i <image_name>

You can also pass config, if you have mentioned project-id and zone in project's config.json.

$ ops instance create -c config.json -i <image_name>

List Instances

You can list instance on AWS using ops instance list command.

$ ops instance list -p prod-1033 -t aws -z us-west-2
​
$ ops instance list
+------+----+--------+---------+-------------+------------+
| NAME | ID | STATUS | CREATED | PRIVATE IPS | PUBLIC IPS |
+------+----+--------+---------+-------------+------------+

Alternatively you can pass project-id and zone with cli options.

$ ops instance list -p prod-1000 -z us-west1-b

Get Logs for Instance

You can get logs from serial console of a particular instance using ops instance logs command.

$ ops instance logs <instance_name>

Alternatively you can pass project-id and zone with cli options.

$ ops instance logs -t aws -p prod-1033 -z us-west-2 i-08815dc4b29b44294

Delete Instance

ops instance delete command can be used to delete instance on AWS.

$ ops instance delete my-instance-running

Alternatively you can pass project-id and zone with cli options.

$ ops instance delete -p prod-1000 -z us-west1-b my-instance-running
