Anybody knows some examples of creating a docker swarm cluster on aws?

If you can find an AMI that has a sufficiently recent enough version of Docker pre-installed, then you could instantiate some number of EC2 instances using that AMI and then use the

Command

module to run the Docker commands necessary to establish a Swarm cluster.

how do i get return from

docker swarm init

, which is needed for the worker nodes?

If you’re using

command.remote.Command

(see https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/command/api-docs/remote/command/) there are

stdout

and

stderr

outputs that should capture the return of the

docker swarm init

command. You’ll have to parse it down to what you need, and then pass that information on to create the worker nodes.

got you, thanks

Use an SSH bastion?

I don't see how to set up bastion host in command module.

Sorry---bastion host (or jump host) isn’t part of the Command module, Using a node with a public IP, as you’ve suggested, is what I meant. Apologies that I wasn’t more clear.

trying to work around this issue now
