access_key = "<access key>"
secret_key = "<secret key>"

ssh_public_key = "<ssh public key>"
ssh_private_key_path = "<path to private key file>"

# generate new discovery url: https://discovery.etcd.io/new?size=<master_count>
discovery_url = "<discovery url>"

# cluster
master_count = 1
worker_count = 1
