I am seeking help with fails in this PR auto-format step in GitHub Actions (that was otherwise approved): https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-s3-bucket/pull/91/checks?check_run_id=2742319215

Anyone familiar with cloudpossebot and what it needs to access repositories of forks ?

+ git push
remote: Permission to SkywardIO/terraform-aws-s3-bucket.git denied to cloudpossebot.
fatal: unable to access '<https://github.com/SkywardIO/terraform-aws-s3-bucket/>': The requested URL returned error: 403
Error: Process completed with exit code 128

Permission to SkywardIO/terraform-aws-s3-bucket.git denied to cloudpossebot

either give the bot permissions to your fork

or run these commands
make init
make github/init
make readme

and commit the changes

Hi Andriy! Thanks for help with this.
So I tried with make
and I am having issues on the last step:
* Package gomplate already installed
* Package terraform-docs already installed
make: gomplate: No such file or directory
make: *** [readme/build] Error 1

That is after my 2nd attempt to do make readme

Also are there any instructions on how to give cloudpossebot permissions to our repo ?

So I hope Write access should be sufficient when adding cloudpossebot
as repo member ….

@Andriy Knysh (Cloud Posse), would someone have to confirm the invite on cloudpossebot user side ?

Also I am following this thread for my issue with gomplate
:
https://archive.sweetops.com/build-harness/2020/01/
SweetOps Slack archive of #build-harness for January, 2020.

install (or reinstall) gomplate
and terraform-docs
on you computer

or do

make builder TARGETS=readme

to run it in docker

(then the only dep is docker)

I was able to move fw thanks to that post above … Waiting for review again…see https://sweetops.slack.com/archives/CUJPCP1K6/p1623080671020900?thread_ts=1623078400.020400&cid=CUJPCP1K6
Ok I have made the updates discussed here, whenever someone has a chance to approve again , that would be great: https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-s3-bucket/pull/91

I’m attempting to follow the instructions from https://github.com/cloudposse/reference-architectures/releases to set up the reference architecture. the README file says to edit configs/master.tfvar
and to run make root
but configs/master.tfvar
appears to be deleted after v0.20.0.
[WIP] Get up and running quickly with one of our reference architecture using our fully automated cold-start process. - cloudposse/reference-architectures

Please don’t start there
[WIP] Get up and running quickly with one of our reference architecture using our fully automated cold-start process. - cloudposse/reference-architectures

Those docs are incomplete and out of date


We also have some tutorials

okay thanks!

I made the same mistake. Forget what you saw in that ref arch project. That reference project will confuse you.
The tutorial at docs.cloudpossse.com plus their aws-terraform-components GitHub project is what I used.
Opinionated, self-contained Terraform root modules that each solve one, specific problem - cloudposse/terraform-aws-components

I’ve been following the instructions on how to authenticate with aws-vault. Within the geodesic container, I can successfully run aws-vault exec $YOUR_PROFILE_NAME -- aws s3 ls
and get back a list of buckets.
I added the credential_process
to the ~/.aws/config
file. When I run assume-role $YOUR_PROFILE_NAME
, a new container appears to try to start, but it gets stuck after * Found SSH agent config
.
Any tips?

FYI… you could consider using Leapp (much easier than aws-vault and devs active in this community).
Then just mount the .aws/credentials
file in your docker container as default or named if you must and use that. I migrated away from aws-vault due to some complexity in things like this and have found leapp to be a nice simplification when I’m not having to loop through tons of profiles and mostly switching context right now.

Hi everyone I recommended a colleague to join this community for questions regarding DevOps. I’m VPE over at WellSky Health with previous assignments at Nordstrom, Avvo and Airhelp.com. I’m more often VP of Product Engineering, but currently doing a Platform role, not Infra. But my relationship with Infra and Devops will be so close I wanna make sure i’m abreast of the current lingo!

Guys I have questions related to scripting.. Like if I want to get notified if someone enter a mail other than my domain name so how can we achieve it using shell script ??
2021-06-27

@General - I am getting a new laptop (windows 10). Any suggestions on best linux distro for DevOps Engineer to work on(trying to install dual boot). Or is windows itself best OS for DevOps Engineer?



WSL works great for me

Yeah currently I am using WSL. But its gives kind of incomplete feeling. Why because it takes lot of cpu for wsl on pychrm or vscode. Also, we have have script to login to aws everyday, which doesn’t work on wsl….

i don’t rely on IDEs a whole lot. i use vscode mostly just for code highlighting and minor linting/formatting, and use windows terminal for all shell activity. a lot of our work is cross-platform, so having powershell and ubuntu in my terminal is fantastic

and starship to configure my prompt the same, https://starship.rs/guide/
Starship is the minimal, blazing fast, and extremely customizable prompt for any shell! Shows the information you need, while staying sleek and minimal. Quick installation available for Bash, Fish, ZSH, Ion, and Powershell.

is it possible to change one’s email address (used to sign in to the channel)

I think so… if you still have access to the email

if not, I don’t know if it can be changed

yes I do still have access

but it seems like it can only be done by a workspace admin

actually nm I found https://slack.com/intl/en-ca/help/articles/207262907-Change-your-email-address and that worked
The email address you use to join or create a Slack workspace is where we’ll send password reset emails and other important messages, so you’ll want to keep it up to date. Keep reading to learn…
