The Personal IAAS

Piaas, is a set of tools that help you develop using multiple machines as if having a Personal IAAS.

We all work on laptop today. However, compiling and serving on laptop is crazy. The fan keeps working and creating quite a noise. Your battery drained, cycle count increased. More than ever, peace of mind you lost.

Piaas help your workspace in sync with a remote machine, given it a more powerful desktop, a high end iMac or a shared server. Develop with your favorite IDE, while compiling and serving from the desktop. Your laptop is relaxed to do the thing that absolutely required it to do. Great team work, isn't it ?

Installation

Download the binary from the following link:

• Windows, 64 bit
• Mac OS, 64 bit
• Linux, 64 bit

Place the binary in your path and you're done.

System requirements

The application support Mac OS, but was only tested on Mojave.

Linux should be fine, but untested.

On windows platform, WSL (windows subsystem linux) is required. At the moment Windows 10 is the only supported version.

Sync

Piaas sync is a wrapper around rsync. It will detect workspace changes and sync necessary files to remote. Piaas is slightly more optimized than running rsync with a file watcher for the following reasons:

1. Piaas detects changed files and update only the changed files.
2. Piaas checks through the ignore file, only necessary files are synced.

Create the following 2 files in your workspace.

piaasconfig.yml

This is the main configuration file, where you describe the connection info of remote machines.

You may configure more than one machines, find samples of different platform in the document/samples folder.

An example of piaasconfig.yml

apiVersion: 1
profiles:
  - name: dev
    connection:
      host: remote
      user: foo
      destination: ~/src

.piaasignore

The ignore file uses a very similar format as rsync exclude files. The following notations are supported.

• Exact, path element without special character. Ex: foo
• Anchored, path start with "/". Ex: /foo
• Wildcard, path element that matches any character. Ex: foo*
• Double wildcards, path elements that matches any character including sub directories. Ex: foo/**
• Multi segments, path elements that span over one level in the hierarchy. Ex: foo/bar

An example .piaasignore:

/.idea
/.git
*___jb_tmp___
*___jb_old___
*.class

Running

Use the sync command of piaas.

piaas sync <profile name>

The profile name is defined in your piaasconfig.yml file. You may defined multiple profiles, but sync can only work with one profile at a time.

Your workspace will keep sync with the remote server. You may now go to the server to compile and serve from there.

func (*Config) GetProfile

func (conf *Config) GetProfile(name string) (Profile, error)

func (*Config) GetSyncTarget

func (conf *Config) GetSyncTarget(name string) (string, error)

Find matching profile and use the information to compose the rsync target string. In this format: ${user}@${host}:${target}

type Event

type Event struct {
	Path string
}

type Executable

type Executable struct {
	Cmd    string
	Params []string
}

type FSEventMonitor

type FSEventMonitor struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func NewFSEventMonitor

func NewFSEventMonitor(path string) FSEventMonitor

func (*FSEventMonitor) Start

func (fsm *FSEventMonitor) Start(debounceTime uint64)

func (*FSEventMonitor) Stop

func (fsm *FSEventMonitor) Stop()

func (*FSEventMonitor) Subscribe

func (fsm *FSEventMonitor) Subscribe(subscriber chan<- []string)

type Monitor

type Monitor interface {
	// Start watching for file system changes. Specify the debounceTime so the events are collected within the debounce time.
	Start(debounceTime uint64)
	// Register a observer to receive the fs events
	Subscribe(observer chan<- []string)
	// Stop file system watching.
	Stop()
}

func NewMonitor
