Launchpad Clinics - EC2 Machines

Notes:

Instructions for set-up

  1. Get gmb to add your AWS Account Number (see https://portal.aws.amazon.com/gp/aws/manageYourAccount) to the AMI for the LP clinics.

  2. Create a security group for the instances of this AMI, allowing incoming traffic on ports 22, 80 and 443.
  3. Launch as many instances of the AMI as you need, using your default AWS keypair and the security group you created above.
  4. When someone wants to use a machine, log into that machine using ssh -i /path/to/keypair ubuntu@machine.aws.address and run the following: get-lp-ssh-keys $lpname >> .ssh/authorized_keys where $lpname is the LP username of the person who's going to be hacking on that machine.

  5. Have the user log into the machine and run the following:

$ cd launchpad
$ ./rocketfuel-setup
  1. The machine is now ready to use. The user should also generate an SSH key (ssh-keygen) and upload it to Launchpad so that they'll be able to push any code they commit.

NB: The machine may be laggy - the AMI is in the us-west region.
