Using Moby on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

This is a quick guide to run Moby on GCP.

Setup

You need the Google Cloud SDK installed. Either install it from the URL or view brew (on a Mac):

brew install google-cloud-sdk

Then, set up some environment variables (adjust as needed) and login:

export CLOUDSDK_CORE_PROJECT=<GCP project>
export CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE=europe-west1-d
gcloud auth login

The authentication will redirect to a browser with Google login.

Also authenticate local applications with

gcloud beta auth application-default login

Build a moby image

Add a gcp output line to your yaml config, see the example in examples/gcp.yml.

Then do ./bin/moby myfile.yml

This will create a local myfile.img.tar.gz compressed image file, upload it to the specified bucket, and create a bootable image.

Create an instance and connect to it

With the image created, we can now create an instance and connect to the serial port.

gcloud compute instances create my-node \
  --image="myfile" --metadata serial-port-enable=true \
  --machine-type="g1-small" --boot-disk-size=200

gcloud compute connect-to-serial-port my-node
