Manage BuildKite worker cluster with BOSH

If you're using BOSH, you can bootstrap, scale, resize, destroy your BuildKite cluster using this BOSH release:

This was as simple as:

./templates/make_manifest warden TOKEN 3

Usage

To use this bosh release, first upload it to your bosh:

git clone https://github.com/cloudfoundry-community/buildkite-agent-boshrelease.git
cd buildkite-agent-boshrelease
bosh create release
bosh upload release

For bosh-lite, you can quickly create a deployment manifest & deploy a cluster:

templates/make_manifest warden TOKEN 1
bosh -n deploy

For AWS EC2, create a single VM:

templates/make_manifest aws-ec2 TOKEN 1
bosh -n deploy

Resize cluster

In the examples above, the suffix 1 is the number of nodes. Change it to scale out:

templates/make_manifest warden TOKEN 3
bosh -n deploy

Will add two BuildKite workers.
