[01:02] <powersj> dpb1: those failures are due to a conversation smoser and I had earlier around where lxc keeps their datasource

[12:45] <Wulf> Hello!
[12:45] <Wulf> Is it possible to specify a script (or URL with a script) that will execute and provide the actual configuration to cloud-init?
[13:17] <Putti> Wulf, most likely: I have seen many VPS providers allowing the users to customize the cloud-init configuration. I can look into the code if you want.
[13:26] <Putti> Wulf, maybe these help you: http://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/capabilities.html and http://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/format.html#include-file
[13:31] <Wulf> Putti: Not really what I'm looking for. I can specify the full configuration (or a URL) via EC2 user data. But I need different configuration for each of my machines. So I thought I could write a script which supplies dynamic configuration for cloud-init.
[13:33] <Putti> Wulf, mhm, to which configuration you are referring to if not the one that can be set with user data (as that is dynamic)?
[13:34] <Wulf> Putti: I don't want to put the full cloud-init configuration into the userdata.
[13:36] <Wulf> Putti: I want to specify a URL (same for all instances). Cloud-formation shall download the URL and execute it as a script that returns the real cloud-formation config
[13:37] <Putti> ok, I don't know how to help with that. But maybe now with this information someone else could?
[14:00] <Wulf> I guess I could add a part-handler and my script as a new part. But then how can my script inject additional generated parts into cloud-init?
[14:17] <larsks> Wulf: I don't think it can. But you can have additional parts that are urls pointing to remote data...
