I’m slowly on my way to automating the creation of droplets in Digital Ocean and adding them to my docker swarm cluster. I have the creation and configuration working thanks to PowerShell and Ansible. I’m still working on the check logic but have the queries I need for InfluxDB. I need to figure out the best way to query the database. I also started thinking about ensuring there are limitations so this thing doesn’t take off and end up spawning 100+ servers overnight by mistake. I also am trying to set up Graylog to drive alerting for actions taken by this script and a general troubleshooting tool. I’m having trouble getting it to work inside Docker but I’ll work on it some more tomorrow. Here’s the work in progress PowerShell script. The first two functions work but there’s definitely improvements to be made.
