DigitalOcean User Scripts Library
This repository contains a collection of scripts that can be used to help provision
your Droplet on first boot. When creating a new Droplet, they can be provided as
"user data."
For an introduction for the technologies involved, check out these articles from
the DigitalOcean Community as well as
the upstream cloud-init documentation:
- An Introduction to Droplet Metadata
- An Introduction to Cloud-Config Scripting
- How To Use Cloud-Config For Your Initial Server Setup
Contributing
Scripts in this repository can be in one of two formats, shell scripts and
cloud-config files. In order to encourage simplicity and readability, it is
highly encouraged to use the declarative cloud-config file format when possible.
Each directory must contain a README.md file describing the scripts contained
within it, including the target platform and a description of any needed user
input. As these scripts are not interactive, please use the standardized
format of <%DESCRIPTIVE_NAME%> for variables that should be provided by
the user before running the script. (See the examples/ directory.)
