Description

This project aims to provide a relatively simple CLI to provision remove development envioronments.

Now that we have amazing remote development tools and projects (VSCode, JetBrains Fleet, Theia, etc.) I felt wanting a way to quickly spin up machines from a predefined config.

I wanted something that would provide a base, but allowed users to extend to their liking, so solutions like Gitpod/Codespaces/Cloud9 were not enough.

Usage

• Create instance config in ~/revel.yml like

default:
  name: "foo"
  description: "Primary remote development machine"
  ami: ami-05e155ca52886ffe4
  user: ubuntu
  public: true
  size: "t3.micro"
  disk:
    size: 10
    type: "IO1"
  backups: true
  init:
    - files:
        - ~/.yarnrc:/tmp/.yarnrc
    - run: "ls -lah"
    - run: "ls -lah /tmp"
    - files:
        - ~/.other:/tmp/files

• Execute revel create
