Local Test Cloud
Summary
testCloud is a small tool to download and boot cloud images locally.
Owner
- Name: Mike Ruckman
- Email: roshi@fedoraproject.org
- Release notes owner:
Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 22
- Last updated: (2014-01-20)
- Tracker bug: <will be assigned by the Wrangler>
Detailed Description
testCloud was created because manually booting a cloud image locally can be a pain. It handles downloading the image, spoofing cloud-init metadata as well as providing an ssh_config to easily connect to the booted instance. What was usually several different steps to get an image to boot locally is now just one:
python testCloud.py <url for qcow2 image>
It currently supports both the Fedora Cloud Base as well as the Atomic host image.
Note: testCloud will likely change names in the near future.
