Nginx Server Using Compute Engine

View Code

Starting point for building the Pulumi nginx server sample in Google Cloud Platform. This example deploys two GCP virtual machines:

a virtual machine running nginx via a startup script
a virtual machine running nginx via a Docker container with Google’s Container-Optimized OS

Running the App

Create a new stack:
```
$ pulumi stack init gcp-instance-nginx
```
Create a Python virtualenv, activate it, and install dependencies:
This installs the dependent packages needed for our Pulumi program.
```
$ python3 -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
```

Configure the project:

$ export GOOGLE_PROJECT=YOURPROJECTID; export GOOGLE_REGION=asia-east1; export GOOGLE_ZONE=asia-east1-a;
$ export GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS=YOURGCPCREDENTIALS

Run pulumi up to preview and deploy changes:
```bash $ pulumi up Previewing update (dev): Type Name Plan
- pulumi:pulumi:Stack gcp-instance-nginx-dev create
- ├─ gcp:compute:Address poc create
- ├─ gcp:compute:Network poc create
- ├─ gcp:compute:Address poc-container-instance create
- ├─ gcp:compute:Firewall poc create
- ├─ gcp:compute:Instance poc create
- └─ gcp:compute:Instance poc-container-instance create
Resources: + 7 to create

Curl the HTTP server:

$ curl $(pulumi stack output instance_external_ip)

Destroy the stack:

$ pulumi stack rm
This will permanently remove the 'gcp-instance-nginx' stack!
Please confirm that this is what you'd like to do by typing ("gcp-instance-nginx"): gcp-instance-nginx
Stack 'gcp-instance-nginx' has been removed!
