| jetole | Hey guys. I have a app that I am using to provision instances and it's passing a user password to the instances via http://169.254.169.254/openstack/latest/meta_data.json | 20:27 |
|---|---|---|
| jetole | Can I use cloud-init to set the user password based on this data? Also I forgot to mention it has other variables all in json | 20:28 |
| smoser | jetole, use ssh keys , or use cloud-config to set password. | 20:54 |
| jetole | smoser: neither are a option in this case. It's a closed source app and it passes the data via a json tag in http://169.254.169.254/openstack/latest/meta_data.json | 20:54 |
| smoser | i dont follow. | 20:55 |
| smoser | some entity is running an instance for you? | 20:55 |
| smoser | jetole, i think in the past i've said that patches are welcome. | 21:02 |
| smoser | but if this is a close source app, and you're trying to get into it in some way, its likely the'd have such functionality disabled in their app even if cloud-init did support it. | 21:03 |
| jetole | smoser: yes a software that the firm I work for has bought is creating instances and it's passing the user password via a json tag in http://169.254.169.254/openstack/latest/meta_data.json. Are you saying that cloud-init cannot access this data? | 21:04 |
| smoser | it can access it sure. | 21:06 |
| smoser | but it does not. | 21:06 |
| jetole | smoser: and I cannot configure cloud-init to set a password based on a tag inserted into that json data? | 21:19 |
| jetole | I mean aside from writing a script? | 21:19 |
| jetole | ...which I've already begin doing anyways | 21:19 |
