Ark
, (*1)
The ark is a simple tool to spinup new servers and trash the ones in service in your infrastructure., (*2)
It works with the Ovh api and uses the vps endpoints or with Scaleway., (*3)
Only the installation provided by the ark array can be asked to be disposed., (*4)
Ovh implementation detail
Since it's not possible to order new servers via the Ovh api this library rely on the state of your servers., (*5)
If a server is stopped it considers that it is available when asking for a new server. When a server is chosen as a new server it will reinstall the server with a template id that you must provide, the only way to connect to the server will be via a ssh key (no password is generated as we couldn't automate the reinstallation)., (*6)
With ovh disposing a server simply means it will stop the server (allowing it to be considered as available when asking for a new server)., (*7)
Installation
composer require innmind/ark
Usage
Scaleway
use function Innmind\Ark\scaleway;
use function Innmind\ScalewaySdk\bootstrap as sdk;
use Innmind\OperatingSystem\Factory;
use Innmind\ScalewaySdk\{
Token,
Region,
User,
Organization,
Image,
};
use Innmind\SshKeyProvider\Local;
use Innmind\Url\Path;
$os = Factory::build();
$sdk = sdk($os->remote()->http(), $os->clock());
$scaleway = $sdk->autnenticated(new Token\Id('uuid')); // create an api token at https://console.scaleway.com/account/credentials
$ark = scaleway(
$scaleway->servers(Region::paris1()),
$scaleway->ips(Region::paris1()),
$scaleway->users(),
$os->process(),
new Local(
$os->control()->processes(),
Path::of('/home/{serverUser}/.ssh'),
),
new User\Id('your user uuid'),
new Organization\Id('the organization uuid you want to create servers in'),
new Image\Id('the image uuid you want to build'),
);
$installation = $ark->forge()->new();
$installAppOn($installation->location());
$ark->array(); // will contain the new server now
Ovh
The very first step is to buy vps servers from ovh, then you can start writing this kind of code:, (*8)
use function Innmind\Ark\ovh;
use Innmind\OperatingSystem\Factory;
use Innmind\SshKeyProvider\Local;
use Innmind\Url\Path;
use Ovh\Api;
$os = Factory::build();
$ark = ovh(
new Api(/* args */),
new Local(
$os->control()->processes(),
Path::of('/home/{serverUser}/.ssh'),
),
$os,
);
$installation = $ark->forge()->new();
$installAppOn($installation->location());
$ark->array(); // will contain the new server now
You can refer to the ovh documentation to know how you can generate the tokens needed to build the Api
object., (*9)
Important: you need to generate the consumer key yourself as it can't be automated. The library requires the following access rights in order to work properly: POST</me*>
, DELETE</me*>
, GET</vps*>
and POST</vps*>
., (*10)
