bootstrap-vz
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
bootstrap-vz is a fully automated bootstrapping tool for Debian.
|
|
It creates images for various virtualized platforms (at the moment: kvm, virtualbox, ec2).
|
|
The plugin architecture allows for heavy modification of standard behavior
|
|
(e.g. create a vagrant box, apply puppet manifests, run custom shell commands).
|
|
|
|
At no time is the resulting image booted, meaning there are no latent logfiles
|
|
or bash_history files.
|
|
|
|
The bootstrapper runs on a single json manifest file which contains all configurable
|
|
parameters. This allows you to recreate the image whenever you like so you can create
|
|
an updated version of an existing image or create the same image in multiple EC2 regions.
