Cleanroom

Cleanroom makes it easy and fast to do fresh installations of whole fleets of machines (bare metal, VMs or containers).

A set of system descriptions is used to describe the machines to be installed. Cleanroom will use this description and files downloaded from Linux Distributions to do the actual installations.

By enabling easy and fast installations, Cleanroom enables the use of immutable and stateless systems as it becomes feasible to keep such machines up-to-date by simply regenerating a fresh image and booting into it.

Up-to-date code can be found at:

Installation

Just use the code straight from the repository:-)

Optional Build Container

If you do not want your systems to be built in your normal OS setup, you can create an optional build container for Cleanroom.

pacstrap clrm-archlinux \
    arch-install-scripts \
    binutils borg btrfs-progs \
    cpio \
    devtools dosfstools \
    lsof \
    mtools \
    pacman python-pyparsing \
    qemu \
    sbsigntools \
    squashfs-tools \
    tar

should get you started.

Use

build_container \
    --build-container=clrm-archlinux \
    --systems-directory=/SYSTEMS/DIRECTORY \
    --work-directory=/WORK/DIR \
    --repository-base-directory=/REPOSITORY/BASE \
    clrm --verbose --verbose --verbose --verbose \
    --clear-scratch-directory \
    SYSTEM_NAME

to build inside this container.

Tests

Use pytest tests in the top level directory to run all tests.
