Skycrane is an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool that uses WASI plugins to securely and efficiently manage cloud resources across multiple providers.
It allows users to define resources using Starlark, a Python-like configuration language.
Resource specifications for each plugin are maintained in the Skyforge repository, enabling a standardized approach to resource definition across different cloud platforms.
Drawing inspiration from kustomize, Skycrane provides a streamlined way to manage different environments such as dev, staging and production, allowing for easy customization and overlay of configurations.
Skycrane is currently in development and is not yet ready for production use!
$ cargo install skycrane

All plugins are built using the wasm component of the Rust toolchain. To build the plugins, run the following command:
e.g. for the Hetzner plugin:
$ cargo install cargo-component --locked
...
$ cargo component build && cp ../../../target/wasm32-wasi/debug/hetzner.wasm ~/.config/skycrane/plugins/
...This will build the plugin and copy the resulting wasm file to the
~/.config/skycrane/plugins/ directory. The manual copy is necessary because we don't
have a registry in place at the moment. Once the registry is in place, skycrane will
download the plugin automatically.
cargo component build --target wasm32-wasip1 && cp ../../../target/wasm32-wasip1/debug/hetzner.wasm ~/.config/skycrane/plugins
