eirini-station - Google Cloud

Prerequisites

  • All the common prerequisites
  • Install the vagrant-google plugin: 
    vagrant plugin install vagrant-google
  • Add the SSH key you're going to use to GCE Metadata in Compute -> Compute Engine -> Metadata section of the console, SSH Keys tab. This has to be the same key you have loaded in your local SSH agent!
  • Retrieve the Eirini service account JSON key and save it somewhere convenient on your machine. You could ask a team member to send it securely to you, or you can get it from our pass store, which lives in eirini-private-config. The name of the key is eirini/gcp-eirini-station-json-key.
  • Set up the necessary environment variables:
    • EIRINI_STATION_USERNAME: the username associated to your key in the Metadata
    • EIRINI_STATION_GCP_JSON_KEY_PATH: the path to your copy of the JSON key for the eirini GCP service account

Usage

Start the VM:

vagrant up --provider=google

SSH into the VM:

vagrant ssh

Print the command to ssh onto the VM and send it to your pair:

pssh

You can now start your pairing session:

pmux

You pair can then join the session:

pattach

Station script

Alternatively you can put this script somewhere on your path. It is a tiny vagrant wrapper that exports the necessary env vars for you and delegates to vagrant. You can easily provision the vm by running station up or station provision from any directory. Logging onto the vm is as easy as station ssh
