These instructions will walk you step-by-step through:

  • Producing an AWS image with redis installed
  • Producing a GCE image with redis installed
  • Producing both AWS and GCE images, each with both redis and kato installed
Prerequisites:
Important: All of the following commands are to be executed on a machine that has the Docker daemon installed.
Set some environment variables to save us some typing:
# Common:
# Note: Both the AWS and GCE builders will fail to complete their work if
# the specified target image already exists. If you execute the commands
# below multiple times, remember to alter the TARGET_IMAGE_NAME or delete
# the image in between executions.
export DOCKER_IMAGE_NAME=spinnaker/rosco
export DOCKER_REGISTRY=localhost:5000
export TARGET_IMAGE_NAME=newly-baked-image


# Needed for baking AWS images:
# Replace values of aws_access_key and aws_secret_key with your keys.
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY=foo
export AWS_SECRET_KEY=bar

# Needed for baking GCE images:
# You must ensure that the project id specified in gce_project_id is the
# same one for which you retrieved account credentials (i.e. the contents
# of the account.json file).
export GCE_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id

# Needed for baking Docker images:
# You must ensure that this address/port is reachable from the docker daemon.
export TARGET_DOCKER_REGISTRY=docker-1:5000
Launch spinnaker/rosco container to produce AWS image with redis installed:
