mapt offers several operations to manage environments within azure:
It creates / destroy a Ubuntu machine ready to be included within the CI/CD system. Features included within the offering:
- Creates an admin user with a self generated passwd (only accessible within rdp)
- Creates an user acting as adminuser
- Setup ssh for the user user with a self generated private key
This will create a windows desktop accordig to params specificed:
podman run -it --rm quay.io/redhat-developer/mapt:0.7.0-dev azure ubuntu create -h
create
Usage:
mapt azure ubuntu create [flags]
Flags:
--conn-details-output string path to export host connection information (host, username and privateKey)
-h, --help help for create
--location string If spot is passed location will be calculated based on spot results. Otherwise localtion will be used to create resources. (default "West US")
--spot if spot is set the spot prices across all regions will be cheked and machine will be started on best spot option (price / eviction)
--spot-eviction-tolerance string if spot is enable we can define the minimum tolerance level of eviction. Allowed value are: lowest, low, medium, high or highest (default "lowest")
--tags stringToString tags to add on each resource (--tags name1=value1,name2=value2) (default [])
--username string username for general user. SSH accessible + rdp with generated password (default "rhqp")
--version string ubunutu version. Tore info at https://documentation.ubuntu.com/azure/en/latest/azure-how-to/instances/find-ubuntu-images (default "24_04")
--vmsize string size for the VM. Type requires to allow nested virtualization (default "Standard_D8as_v5")
Global Flags:
--backed-url string backed for stack state. Can be a local path with format file:///path/subpath or s3 s3://existing-bucket
--project-name string project name to identify the instance of the stack
It will crete a windows desktop instance and will give as result several files located at path defined by --conn-details-output
:
- username: file containing the username for worker user
- id_rsa: file containing the private key for worker user
- host: file containing the public ip for the instance
Also it will create a state folder holding the state for the created resources at azure, the path for this folder is defined within --backed-url
, the content from that folder it is required with the same project name (--project-name
) in order to detroy the resources.
When running the container image it is required to pass the authetication information as variables, following a sample snipped on how to create a instance with default values:
podman run -d --rm \
-v ${PWD}:/workspace:z \
-e ARM_TENANT_ID=${ati_value} \
-e ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=${asi_value} \
-e ARM_CLIENT_ID=${aci_value} \
-e ARM_CLIENT_SECRET=${acs_lue} \
quay.io/redhat-developer/mapt:0.7.0-dev azure \
ubuntu create \
--project-name "ubuntu-24" \
--backed-url "file:///workspace" \
--conn-details-output "/workspace" \
--spot
The following is a snipped on how to destroy the resources:
podman run -d --rm \
-v ${PWD}:/workspace:z \
-e ARM_TENANT_ID=${ati_value} \
-e ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=${asi_value} \
-e ARM_CLIENT_ID=${aci_value} \
-e ARM_CLIENT_SECRET=${acs_lue} \
quay.io/redhat-developer/mapt:0.7.0-dev azure \
ubuntu destroy \
--project-name "ubuntu-24" \
--backed-url "file:///workspace"
