Create a pipeline to create an ec2 image (AMI) #39

Open regularstuff opened 6 months ago

regularstuff commented 6 months ago

One way to distribute software -- not a really good general purpose way but easy to use -- is to make an AMI with the software preinstalled. Drawbacks: aws specific, need an image in every region you want people to be able to use it, is locked on the version you used to make the AMI.

Plus: start image, ssh into it, set up letsencrypt, and you're ready to go.
