Server-provider

Server-provider is a promise based library for batch creation of VPS instances on different cloud providers. In this version only Linode provider is implemented.

Installation

npm install --save server-provider

Examples

Creating one or more instances on Linode
import ServerProvider from 'server-provider';
/*
  usage example:
    babel-node acquire.js 98fc3ff8e5164876ef8bfc47f27bc16cc4a445e71bdf3c724ac4c992e3071c8d 3 'replace this with a public ssh key'
*/

const apiKey = process.argv[2];

let count = parseInt(process.argv[3]);
if(!Number.isInteger(count)) {
  count = 1;
}

let sshKey = process.argv[4];

const provider = new ServerProvider('linode_vps', {
  auth: apiKey,
  instance: {
    name: 'test-server',
    size: '1gb',
    sshKeys: [{public: sshKey}]
  }
});

provider.acquire(count).then(async function(result) {
  await provider.waitForSshAccess(result.batchId);
  console.log('result:', result);
}).catch(function(err) {
  console.error(err);
});

Output

result: { batchId: '2d797257eb4f8b40116a015c844df3f2',
  servers: 
   [ { id: 3218154,
       batchId: '2d797257eb4f8b40116a015c844df3f2',
       createdAt: '2017-06-07T20:45:20.242Z',
       age: '0 minutes, 46 seconds',
       rawInfo: [Object],
       ip: '45.33.98.19' },

API

new ServerProvider(vendor, options)

  • vendor is the id of the cloud provider. In this version only the 'linode_vps' value is valid.
  • options is a set of options some of which are vendor specific.
    • auth is the vendor specific authentication credentials. For Linode is required and is a string representing a Linode API key.
    • instance is an object with default options for new server instances.
      • name is the name prefix for new instances. The default is 'vps'.
      • dataCenter is the data center or region for the created servers
      • size is the RAM of the new servers. One of: '1gb', '2gb', '4gb', '8gb' ...
      • distribution the OS distribution to be installed on the new instances. If the value is one of special values it will be translated first to the vendor specific distribution name, otherwise it will be passed to the vendor API as is. Special values:

      • provider is an object representing provider specific options
    • api is an object with an alternative implementation. This is mainly for unit testing.

async ServerProvider.prototype.acquire(count, options)

    • id is the id of the instance
    • ip is the ip of the instance
    • rawInfo is vendor specific info about the servers.

async ServerProvider.prototype.list(batchId)

Queries the vendor API to get the needed list of servers

  • batchId is the id of the batch to list. If batchId is missing all the servers created with this API will be returned.
Return value

An object.

  • servers - an array of objects

    • id the id of the instance
    • ip the ip of the instance
    • batchId the batch id this instance belongs to

    • age a string describing how old the batch is.
    • rawInfo is vendor specific information about the server

async ServerProvider.prototype.release(batchId)

Releases the instances of a batch

  • batchId is the id of the batch to release.
Return value

Returns an object

  • errors indicates the number of instances for which errors occurred while releasing
  • servers an array of objects corresponding to each instance in the batch
    • id is the id of the instance
    • batchId is the id of the batch the server belongs to
    • success is true if the instance has been released successfully, otherwise is false
    • error is the error occurred while trying to release the instance

async ServerProvider.prototype.releaseOlderThan(timeInMinutes)

Releases all instances created with this API which are older than the time provided in minutes.

Return value

Returns an object

  • errors indicates the number of instances for which errors occurred while releasing

  • servers an array of objects corresponding to each instance in the batch

    • id is the id of the instance
    • batchId is the id of the batch the server belongs to
    • success is true if the instance has been released successfully, otherwise is false
    • error is the error occurred while trying to release the instance

async ServerProvider.prototype.waitForSshAccess(batchId, options)

Waits for ssh ports to be opened. It assumes nmap, grep and awk are installed in your system.

  • batchId is the id of the batch to release.
  • port is the port to scan. Default is 22.
  • options.timeout is timeout value in milliseconds. Default value is 120000(2 minutes).
  • options.interval is the interval in milliseconds for scanning the port. Default value is 10000(every 10 seconds).
Return value

Returns an object

  • errors indicates the number of instances for which errors occurred while scanning ssh ports

  • servers an array of objects corresponding to each instance in the batch

    • status is 'open', 'close', 'filtered' or 'error'.
