Minoca OS automation with Sparrowdo

Introduction

Hello! Minoca is a new operating system for the world of connected devices. In this post I am going to show you how one can enable configuration management of running Minoca instances by the help of Sparrowdo.

Download the latest Minoca build

$ wget http://www.minocacorp.com/download/nightlies/latest-x86/Minoca-pc.zip
$ unzip Minoca-pc.zip

Start Minoca OS instance

$ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 2000 -net nic,model=i82559er -net user,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22,hostfwd=tcp::8888-:80 -hda pc.img

Set up remote ssh access

Inside running Minoca instance:

$ opkg update 
$ opkg install openssh bash
$ /etc/init.d/sshd start
$ passwd # we will use this password when ssh-ing from the Host OS after `ssh-copy-id` gets run

Inside Host OS:

$ ssh-copy-id -p 2222 root@127.0.0.1
$ ssh -p 2222 root@127.0.0.1
$ exit

Create some Sparrowdo scenario

$ nano sparrowfile
use v6;
use Sparrowdo;
package-install ("nano", "zsh", "nginx");
user "alexey";
directory "/var/data/bar", %( owner => "alexey");
service-stop "nginx";
service-start "nginx";
http-ok %( port => 8888 );

Run Sparrowdo scenario for Minoca instance

$ sparrowdo --host=127.0.0.1 --ssh_user=root --ssh_port=2222 --no_sudo --sparrowfile=sparrowfile --bootstrap --format=production

The output:
