DigitalOcean Installation

3. Provision a Deis Controller

To create the controller and nodes, the Deis system expects to find a DigitalOcean snapshot (or droplet image) named "deis-base" in the intended cloud region.

The `knife`_ DigitalOcean plugin is used to bootstrap the controller. It should have been installed by bundle install:

$ knife digital_ocean region list  # list regions, test knife-DO
ID  Name
1   New York 1
2   Amsterdam 1
3   San Francisco 1
4   New York 2

The DigitalOcean provisioning script expects one argument: the ID of the cloud region in which to host the controller. Take note of the output of the test command above, then follow the instructions in the ./contrib/digitalocean/prepare-digitalocean-snapshot.sh script to create a Deis-compatible snapshot in your DigitalOcean account.

Run the DigitalOcean provisioning script, which takes several minutes to complete:

$ ./contrib/digitalocean/provision-digitalocean-controller.sh 4

5. Register With the Controller

Registration will discover SSH keys automatically and use the environment variables DIGITALOCEAN_CLIENT_ID and DIGITALOCEAN_API_KEY to configure the DigitalOcean provider with your credentials.

$ sudo pip install deis
$ deis register http://deis.example.com
username: myuser
password:
password (confirm):
email: myuser@example.com
Registered myuser
Logged in as myuser

Found the following SSH public keys:
1) id_rsa.pub
Which would you like to use with Deis? 1
Uploading /Users/myuser/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to Deis... done

Found Digitalocean credentials: hkrVAMXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Import these credentials? (y/n) : y
Uploading Digitalocean credentials... done

6. Deploy a Formation and App

Create a formation and scale it:

$ deis formations:create dev --flavor=digitalocean-new-york-2
$ deis nodes:scale dev runtime=1
