The DemoBuilder is a series of hardware references, scripts, playbooks, and canned presentations designed to make it easy for community managers and members to showcase the best their project has to offer.

This repository will provide:

• Hardware specs and configurations
• Baseline images for easy provisioning
• Ansible playbooks for simple setup of various project demos
• Key points and features to showcase for each project

Participating projects:

• gluster
• rdo

Production Requirements:

• SD Card Writer

Development Requirements:

• A working Vagrant install
• awscli
• Ansible v2.0 (On EL7 install from epel-testing)

Generating an ssh key to deploy to the cluster:

ssh-keygen -f /path/to/demobuild/ansible/roles/base/files/ansible-id-rsa

For development purposes, a Vagrantfile is provided to simulate the multi-node environment.

Below are setup steps for deploying a development cluster

1. Set up a VPC and credentials for EC2

2. Configure the awscli tools with the appropriate credentials, the correct region, and the subnetid of your VPC

#~/.aws/config
[default]
output = json
region = <your_favorite_aws_region>

[vagrant]
subnet = <your_aws_subnet_id>

#~/.aws/credentials
[default]
aws_access_key_id = <your_aws_credential_id>
aws_secret_access_key = <your_aws_credential_secret>

1. Generate a new keypair in AWS and place the secret key in the root of the demobuild project named aws.pem

2. vagrant up will provision the VMs and run the playbooks for the default scenario

NOTE: Be sure you vagrant destroy when you're finished to avoid an extra bill.
