# Login to rack silo, copy url into the browser
# Note: --no-browser seemed to be the only way I could get the one code to be displayed. Without out it nothing would output (--debug didnt help either)
./result/bin/oxide auth login --host https://<HOSTURL> --no-browser

# Check the status of your credentials
./result/bin/oxide ping

# if your user has a key then any VM created in the project will contain that key thanks
# to userdata and cloudinit

# Create a project so any mistakes are easy to cleanup
./result/bin/oxide project create --name nix1 --description "hello from nixpkgs rustcli"

# NOTE: seemed to be missing --ipv4 flag in the --help

  --description "my nix vpc test"

# Create an image of debian (nixos coming soon)

# Create a new instance from the image and an ephemeral external IP will be added automatically
# NOTE: mem and size are awkward since help outputs in GiB which isnt recognized.
# A G for the size also doesnt seem to work, must be lower case
# NOTE: --start in help says value can be true or false but those values aren't valid

# Check the console to start instance and get external IP (not sure how to do this in the CLI) then SSH as debian user
