This project is to setup a Giantswarm development environment that uses code-server as the main interface into the environment. Code-server runs on the remote machine and has a webui with a terminal. This allows you easily setup a work server and access your environment from any dumb terminal.

bash function added

Some bash functions have been added to make life easier

• start_vpn starts vpn expecting /openvpn.ovpn to exist
• stop_vpn stop vpn

Requirements

• ssh-agent with github key loaded ie eval $(ssh-agent -s) ssh-add ~/.ssh/<githubkey> verifu with ssh-add -l
• env_vars in local folder with proper values
• (optional) vpnconfig.ovpn in local folder
