Starter Food

This geneset contains starter food that could be consumed by catlets for quick starts.

Default users and passwords in starter tags

tldr - these are the default users and passwords when using a dbosoft starter tag:

Usage

Dbosoft base catlets that supports starter food contain a tag "starter" that uses the latest base catlet version and latest starter food version.

To use it in your own windows catlets add a gene reference to the windows starter gene:

fodder:
 - source: gene:dbosoft/starter-food:win-starter

or for linux:

fodder:
 - source: gene:dbosoft/starter-food:linux-starter

If you use the starter in your own catlets, you should also bind the variables to catlet variables. Here is an example that forces the Windows username and password to be set.

# variables of catlet
variables:
  - name: Username
    required: true
  - name: Password
    required: true
    secret: true

fodder:
# bind your own variables to the variables of the fodder gene
 - source: gene:dbosoft/starter-food:win-starter
   variables:
     - name: AdminUsername
       value: '{{ Username }}'
     - name: AdminPassword
       value: '{{ Password }}'

Linux starter food

Linux starter food is in the fooder gene linux-starter and contains currently one one gene to set up a default user.

Default user

The starter food admin-linux contains a default user configuration with username admin and password admin. Following variables can be used to configure the defaults:

• username
  default value: admin

  Name of the created user

• password
  default value: admin

  Password of the created user

• lockPassword
  default value: false

  Boolean value to disable password login - to be used to disable password with public key login enabled only - see sshPublicKey

• sshPublicKey

  Optional value for a ssh public key (as a string), that will be configured for created user as ssh key.

Windows starter food

Windows starter food is in the fooder gene windows-starter. If the entire gene is referenced all fodder configurations will be fed into the catlet. The starter settings enables a default user, remote desktop and SSH access.

Default user

The starter food admin-windows contains a default user configuration with username admin and password 'InitialPassw0rd'. Following variables can be used to configure the defaults:

• AdminUsername
  default value: admin

• AdminPassword
  default value: InitialPassw0rd

  Password of the created user

Remote Desktop Access

The gene remote-desktop enables the remote desktop access to the catlet. There are no configuration options.

SSH Server

The gene ssh-server enables the buildin SSH Server that is included in modern Windows Versions. Windows Server 2016 is not supported.

Versioning

This geneset contains only fodder genes and is versioned with a major-minor version scheme.

There is no patch version - when a bug is fixed, a new minor version will be released.
A new major version is released when a gene is removed from the geneset.

The tag latest is updated with each released version. If you want to have a stable reference, don't use the latest tag, use a specific version tag.
