Revision history [back]

So I did a bit more experimentation and found that if I could get the script into the LocalScripts location they would get them run if I stored them in RAW format.

Here is a brief example:

parameters:
  file_content:
    type: string
    description: testing userdata content
    default: |
      #ps1
      Set-Content -Path "C:\test_3.txt" -Value "This is test_3's output!"

resources:      
  boot_config:
    type: OS::Heat::CloudConfig
    properties:
      cloud_config:
        write_files:
        - path: C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\LocalScripts\test_3.ps1
          content: { get_param: file_content }
  server:
    type: OS::Nova::Server
    properties:
      name: testbox
      flavor: { get_param: flavour }
      key_name: { get_param: key }
      networks:
        - port: { get_resource: port }
      user_data_format: RAW
      user_data: {get_resource: boot_config}
      block_device_mapping: [{ device_name: "vda", volume_id : { get_resource : volume }, delete_on_termination : "true" }]

I would like to know if there is a better way to do this?

In case it helps Cloudbase-Init version: 0.9.11
