Nitrogen is a tool for deploying web services to AWS Nitro Enclaves. Given a dockerfile and an ssh key, Nitrogen will spin up an EC2, configure the network, and build and deploy your web service. You get back a hostname that's ready to go. Nitrogen is fully open source and it comes with pre-built scripts for deploying popular services like Nginx, Redis, and MongoDB.
Nitrogen can easily be installed with the following:
For Linux or Mac:
$ curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/capeprivacy/nitrogen/main/install.sh | sh
For Windows Powershell
$ iex (irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/capeprivacy/nitrogen/main/install.ps1)
Note: An AWS account is required. If you have AWS cli configured you can retrieve your credentials with cat ~/.aws/credentials. See troubleshooting if your AWS account uses MFA

- Spins up any enclave supported EC2 instance type (with Nitro Enclaves enabled)
- Creates a security group for a specified port.
- Sets up SSH.
- Runs a socat proxy from public internet (TCP) into the nitro enclave (VSOCK).
- Builds any Dockerfile into an Enclave Image File (EIF).
- Deploys any EIF and launches a nitro enclave.
$ nitrogen setup nitrogen-test ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub --instance-type m5n.16xlarge

If you have permissions issues and your aws account has MFA enabled then attempt to use a session token before running setup.
aws sts get-session-token --serial-number arn:aws:iam::<AWS ACCOUNT NUMBER>:mfa/<USER NAME> --token-code <CODE>
Export the values printed from the above command:
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=
export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=
You can also use a helper script in this library called sts.sh. Warning: this will unset any AWS environment variables related to auth
that you have already set in your shell.
. sts.sh <ACCOUNT> <USER NAME> <CODE>
If you wish to deploy the enclave in debug mode, use the "--debug-mode" flag during deploy.
You can then log into the instance and view the enclave console, or use the nitrogen logs command.
