docker-coreos
TL;DR
I hacked something together in order to create a Swarm cluster on CoreOS (or Container Linux) using Vagrant and Ansible.
If you keep reading, I’m going to talk to you about Swarm, CNM, runc, containerd, Infrastructure as Code and Ansible testing strategies. It’s gonna be super fun.
If you want to try it:
git clone https://github.com/sebiwi/docker-coreos
cd docker-coreos
make up
This will spin up 6 VMs: Three Swarm Manager nodes (one Leader), and three Swarm Worker nodes. You can modify the size of the cluster by hacking on the Vagrantfile and the Ansible inventory.
You will need Ansible 2.2, Vagrant and Virtualbox. You will also need molecule and docker-py, if you want to run the tests.
