Overview

If you are in a location that allows SSH but doesn't allow access to GitHub (I'm looking at you India), here's an easy way to get around it.

Prerequisites

You need a shell account on a network that doesn't filter GitHub. Ideas for that:
1. Pay but Cheap: A micro instance on EC2 http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/
2. Free-ish: One of the free shell solutions http://shells.red-pill.eu/
The shell account will need access to the netcat binary called nc http://nc110.sourceforge.net/

DevOps Project

Description

An entry-level developer needs help making their application containerized for deployment. You have volunteered to create a pull request that will include all the changes necessary to make the service ready.

Unfortunately, there are no unit tests for this API, so we'll need to do some manual testing to make sure we have the build correct. We'll let the developer

	shell = Mixlib::ShellOut.new("whatever the command is")
	shell.run_command

	if /^regex-me$/.match(shell.stdout)
	node.default['site']['virtualbox'] = true
	else
	node.default['site']['virtualbox'] = false
	end

	require 'spec_helper'

	describe 'foo::default' do

	let(:chef_run) do
	ChefSpec::Runner.new do \|node\|
	# Holy Hack - This bug: https://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-4107
	# in the pleaserun cookbook (which is depended on by the logstash
	# cookbook). As such, the rspec fails. So I'm cleaning them out before
	# we converge

	# vi: set ft=ruby :

	ENV['VAGRANT_DEFAULT_PROVIDER'] = 'lxc'

	Vagrant.require_plugin 'vagrant-triggers'

	Vagrant.configure("2") do \|config\|

	config.ssh.forward_agent = true
