DEPRECATED: Scripts for building machine images (principally AMIs)

Provide a tag that can be used for filtering in Riff-Raff #86

Closed sihil closed 8 years ago

It turns out that the tagging on AMIs from machine images is not enough to filter as desired from Riff-Raff. This fixes that by providing a ImageName in addition to Name where the former is a tag that doesn't contain the build ID or date stamp.

Friendly reminder of https://github.com/guardian/machine-images/issues/25: AMI tags are only visible to the account that created the AMI. By a happy coincidence, machine-images Packer builds and RiffRaff both run in the same account, so it shouldn't be a problem in this case, but it's worth bearing in mind.

Thanks. Am adding an endpoint to prism to help with discovery and auditing of these - although not intending to use that for riff-raff.

We should raise a ticket with AWS asking them to fix that.
