A platform as a service with built in canary deployments
Ensure that you have an AWS account and your account has the correct permissions for creating EC2 instances, security groups, and IAM policies/roles. Sentinel will pull your AWS credentials via a shared configuration and credentials file. More info about that here and here.
Currently we can only deploy in the us-east-2 region. This is where all cloud resources will be provisioned see issue #10
You'll need to create a key pair in your aws account with the exact name of ssh-kp. This will be used for setting up the Sentinel API server. Be sure to save it locally on your machine at ~/.ssh/.
You'll also need to install terraform and ansible
Install the sentinel npm package
npm i @sentinel-paas/sentinel-cli -g
Next, run sentinel init
This is a global command that will spin up the necessary infrastructure in AWS. All Sentinel commands will be communicating with this server. Keep an eye on the output and expect to see a prompt asking you to connect via SSH to the Sentinel server.
Once this is done you're good to go. Run sentinel --help for more commands or see our CLI documentation on how to deploy your applications and more.
