# Central setup
|
|
|
|
"Central" is a Wild-cloud concept for a network appliance use for cloud utilities.
|
|
|
|
Right now, this is entirely `dnsmasq` to provide:
|
|
|
|
- LAN DNS w/ forwarding of internal and external cloud domains to the cluster.
|
|
- PXE for setting up cluster nodes.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
The setup is going through architecture design right now.
|
|
|
|
- Initially, the process used to bootstrap a node was:
|
|
- Run `bin/install-dnsmasq` in your personal wildcloud dir to create a set of install files in `cluster/dnsmasq`.
|
|
- Copy this dir to a configured debian machine to have the services set up correctly as your Central.
|
|
|
|
## Future setup
|
|
|
|
To provide a better user experience, we have been creating a debian apt package that also does this while providing a UI.
|
|
|
|
Development repo: https://github.com/civil-society-dev/wild-central
|
|
|
|
The setup will look something like this:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Download and install GPG key
|
|
curl -fsSL https://mywildcloud.org/apt/wild-cloud-central.gpg | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/wild-cloud-central-archive-keyring.gpg > /dev/null
|
|
|
|
# Add repository (modern .sources format)
|
|
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/wild-cloud-central.sources << 'EOF'
|
|
Types: deb
|
|
URIs: https://mywildcloud.org/apt
