GCE monolithic snap for Ubuntu Core
Provides a subset of Google Cloud's guest-agent functionality for Ubuntu Core's strict-confinement architecture
What's included:
- Metadata server polling
- Startup script execution (sandboxed)
- Hostname management
- ssh authorized_keys sync onto one fixed, pre-existing account
(ubuntu) via the golang
ssh-key-sync helper. This is not technically user creation and nor is it OSLogin; it writes one declared file for one account that already exists.
What's not included (i.e. not achievable on Core):
- OSLogin (The PAM && NSS modules need to live in the base snap)
- Dynamic creation of arbitrary users via metadata
- osconfig style patch management (Core does not have apt or .debs)
- guest-configs udev/sysctl/systemd unit files (could hypothetically be delivered via the gadget snap instead)
