Web Server Using Compute Engine

Starting point for building the Pulumi web server sample in Google Cloud.

Running the App

1. Create a new stack:

   $ pulumi stack init webserver-gcp-testing
   

2. Configure the project:

   $ pulumi config set gcp:project YOURGOOGLECLOUDPROJECT
   $ pulumi config set gcp:zone us-central1-a
   

3. Restore NPM dependencies:

   $ npm install
   

4. Run pulumi up to preview and deploy changes:

   $ pulumi up
   Previewing changes:
   ...
   
   Performing changes:
   
       Type                     Name                                 Status      Info
   +   pulumi:pulumi:Stack      webserver-gcp-webserver-gcp-testing  created
   +   ├─ gcp:compute:Network   network                              created
   +   ├─ gcp:compute:Firewall  firewall                             created
   +   └─ gcp:compute:Instance  instance                             created
   
   ---outputs:---
   instanceIP  : "35.224.37.178"
   instanceName: "instance-8ad9bd8"
   
   info: 4 changes performed:
       + 4 resources created
   Update duration: 57.918455655s
   

5. Curl the HTTP server:

   $ curl $(pulumi stack output instanceIP)
   Hello, World!
   

6. SSH into the server:

   $ gcloud compute ssh $(pulumi stack output instanceName)
