Cloud Finder

Build Status codecov

This project should serve as a way to help processes discover which cloud, region, endpoint, etc. they need for dynamic configuration.

Rationale

When deploying docker containers to different clouds, you might often want to configure your application based on specific rules. Things that might be important to you may include:

  • Cloud Provider
  • Region
  • Availability Zone

Ideally, this logic could reside in the application. Upon application boot, the application could figure out all of these things for itself and configure itself accordingly. However, we often must deal with what we have. In some cases, getting that logic into the main application might not be feasible.

Usage

Binary

The most common use case for this right now is to call cloud-finder in a subprocess and to eval its output like so:

eval $(cloud-finder -output=eval)
echo $CF_CLOUD

Exit Codes

0 - Able to determine a Cloud Provider 1 - Not able to determine a Cloud Provider

In Go Code

You can also import this in your go code and use it to determine which cloud you are in like so:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"time"

	"github.com/c2fo/cloud-finder/pkg/providers/aws"
	"github.com/c2fo/cloud-finder/pkg/providers/gcp"

	"github.com/c2fo/cloud-finder/pkg/cloudfinder"
)

func main() {
	log.Printf("Registered the following providers: %v", cloudfinder.Providers())

	cf := cloudfinder.New(
		&cloudfinder.Options{
			Timeout:     30 * time.Second,
			HTTPTimeout: 5 * time.Second,
		},
	)

	result := cf.Discover()
	if result == nil {
		log.Fatalf("Unable to determine which cloud we are in")
	}

	var datacenter string

	switch v := result.(type) {
	case gcp.Result:
		datacenter = v.Region()
	case aws.Result:
		datacenter = v.Region()
	default:
		log.Fatalf("No datacenter configuration has been defined for provider: %s\n", result.Name())
	}

	fmt.Printf("Determined we are in datacenter: %s\n", datacenter)
	fmt.Println(v.ToString())
}
