specify configuration file path

[vg-github]

At the moment tugboat looks for its config file in ~/.tugboat.

Any chance we can specify the config file path in each call, or at least have it as an alternative specificed as an env var?

If the .tugboat is not found, I get something like this as well:

Would be great if it just returned an error code.

[petems]

What command are you running and getting that error? Normally Tugboat catches the file missing

You can specify the environment variable TUGBOAT_CONFIG_PATH to specify a specific location for a tugboat config file.

It will also look for a .tugboat file in the current directory.

I'll open a PR to add this to the docs 👍

[vg-github]

Many thanks, it seems it actually picks up the config file, but ruby still throws this error:

Is there a bug in parsing the config file?

[petems]

Hmm, possibly. Can you post your config file here, redacted API key if needed?

[vg-github]

tugboat config

Path: /root/.tugboat
---
authentication:
  access_token:  [REDACTED]
ssh:
  ssh_user: root
  ssh_key_path: [REDACTED]
  ssh_port: '22'
defaults:
  region: lon1
  image: ubuntu-14-04-x64
  size: 512mb
  ssh_key: ''
  private_networking: 'true'
  backups_enabled: 'false'
  ip6: 'false'

[petems]

@vladimirghetau Can you also post the raw yaml into this ticket?

Also, what command are you running to get the error?

[vg-github]

@petems many thanks, I am running latest tugboat version, ubuntu 14.04, ruby 2.3.1, and this error comes with any command ( in this instance it's tugboat images ).

I can prevent the error by sending the command from the exact folder where the config file is located, but the only way to replicate this error is using Jenkins or by navigating in a different folder than the one where .tugboat resides.

Raw Yaml:

---
authentication:
  access_token: [REDACTED]
ssh:
  ssh_user: root
  ssh_key_path: "[REDACTED]"
  ssh_port: '22'
defaults:
  region: lon1
  image: ubuntu-14-04-x64
  size: 512mb
  ssh_key: ''
  private_networking: 'true'
  backups_enabled: 'false'
  ip6: 'false'

Again, this config works, but only when I run tugboat from the same path where it resides.

[petems]

Ah, yeah it could be a Ruby 2.3.1 issue, I remember there being a frozen string issue with 2.3.1

https://wyeworks.com/blog/2015/12/1/immutable-strings-in-ruby-2-dot-3

Let me see if I can test that

[petems]

@vladimirghetau Can you run with DEBUG=1 for me?

[vg-github]

I actually did, it seems the ruby component fails before the DEBUG=1 is even considered.

My assumption is it fails to process the content of the file due to some character that it doesn't understand while using a string function native to ruby.

A way to replicate this would be:

• get a clean vm, install ruby and then gem install tugboat
• run tugboat authorize, the error will show up, see below

The output to what you asked was:

I can provide access to an isolated VM for investigation if needed.

[petems]

An isolated VM would be awesome, I can't replicate on my machine with OSX Ruby 2.3.1

[vg-github]

thanks @petems - trying to find an email or any way of contacting you privately and cannot. Any chance you can email me a DM on twitter (just followed you).

[petems]

@vladimirghetau Cool, followed back! 👍

[petems]

Thanks for the machine, it looks like a non related issue to Tugboat, it turns out the problem was an old version of Rubygems (See https://github.com/bundler/bundler/issues/3187)

$ gem install rubygems-update
$ update_rubygems
$ gem update --system
$ gem install tugboat
$ tugboat authorize
