First release with working cloud-init
✅ cloud-init: done. It finally works.
It took a couple of tweaks, a few cloud-init-output.log
rage scrolls, and more than one “why the hell isn’t this script even running?!” –
but the cloud-init setup is finally nailed down.
From now on, spinning up a fresh instance means:
- ✅ My SSH key gets injected securely at runtime
- ✅ Scripts from my GitHub repo get downloaded and executed automatically
- ✅ Logs are piped into
/var/log/cloud-management-init.log
because blind debugging is a sin - ✅ It’s clean, isolated under
/opt/cloud-management
, and actually… beautiful.
No more scp
ing half-baked Bash into a fresh droplet. No more "just SSH in and run that thing really quick". This is infrastructure that behaves.
And yes – it logs. Properly.
