Scripts used to create docker-AMI images

1. Create the following environment variables in your ~/.bashrc file:

   export AWS_KEY="<your key>"
   export AWS_SECRET="<your secret>"
   export PRIVATE_KEY_NAME="<name of private key>"
   export PATH_TO_PRIVATE_KEY="<path to private key>"
   export PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD="<password for key>"
   

2. Set the following:

   export IMAGE_ID="ami-d0f89fb9"
   export IMAGE_NAME="Ubuntu Server 12.04.2 LTS AMI ID ami-d0f89fb9 (x86_64)"
   export IMAGE_SIZE="25"
   

3. Build the new image:

   python setup.py install
   build-docker-ami $AWS_KEY $AWS_SECRET "$IMAGE_ID" "$IMAGE_NAME" \
                    "$PRIVATE_KEY_NAME" "$PATH_TO_PRIVATE_KEY" \
                    "$PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD" $IMAGE_SIZE
   

• Image names are unique. If the image already exists by name, it will not be recreated.
• Image names AMI names must be between 3 and 128 characters long, and may contain letters, numbers, '(', ')', '.', '-', '/' and '_'
