Salt Docker Demo

A Salt Demo using Docker.

Instructions

This will need the molten formula

https://github.com/saltstack-formulas/molten-formula

after cloning this you must extract formulas to salt/formulas folders I did this because I didn't want to include other git projects as sub folders

Run the following commands in a terminal. Git, Docker, and Docker Compose need to already be installed.

git clone https://github.com/gtmanfred/salt-docker-demo.git
cd salt-docker-demo
cd saltstack\salt\formulas
git clone https://github.com/saltstack-formulas/molten-formula
docker-compose up -d

This will download the centos 7 docker image and create four docker containers. One will be a Salt Master named minion_master and two will be Salt Minions named minion1 and minion2. There vill also be a 'vault' server for testing vault. The Salt Minions will point to the Salt Master and the minions keys will already be accepted. Because the keys are pre-generated and reside in the repo, please be sure to regenerate new keys if you use this for production purposes.

You can then run the following commands to log into the Salt Master and begin using Salt.

docker-compose exec salt bash
salt \* test.ping
