=====Overview===== OCI or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is a cloud provisioning by Oracle which offers: PaaS, IaaS and others services. Firstly, to get access to OCI, we need Oracle account for OCI, which you can create for free at: "cloud.oracle.com" Like any other cloud infrastructure, there are whole books you can read of the architecture and the processes, but in a nutshell, you can think of it, as something like this: {{:oci_compartmentrefmodel.png?400|}} =====Configuration===== Once you have your account, your tenancy and your root compartment. It is important to set your configuration. The "config" file should be in your home location under the .ssh/ folder. Otherwise, you won't be able to connect. The configuration should have something like that. [DEFAULT] user=ocid1.user.__ fingerprint=2d:0d:__ tenancy=ocid1.tenancy.___ region=eu-frankfurt-1 key_file= # TODO Of course, use yours user and tenancy OCIDs, as well as the private key of the public key you have added as API key. ====Test==== After that, you can test if you are set up, by listing your resources: (poce_env) julien.andonov@julienandonovs-MacBook-Pro .oci % oci iam compartment list --compartment-id ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaa5ywubcssitfupa2xmwpwng2zms4dt52cw7gsbymr3nxesbkgdgrq There are other commands which you can use as well: ###Get Namespace oci os ns get #Get tenancy oci iam compartment list -c ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaa5ywubcssitfupa2xmwpwng2zms4dt52cw7gsbymr3nxesbkgdgrq ###Get Buckets: oci os bucket list -ns frsg5o7pykju --compartment-id ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaa5ywubcssitfupa2xmwpwng2zms4dt52cw7gsbymr3nxesbkgdgrq ###Create bucket oci os bucket create --compartment-id ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaa5ywubcssitfupa2xmwpwng2zms4dt52cw7gsbymr3nxesbkgdgrq --name testbucket ###Upload file oci os object put -ns frsg5o7pykju -bn testbucket --name test.txt --file /Users/julien.andonov/Work/POCE/oci-ansible-collection/samples/compute/launch_compute_instance/test.txt ###List instance based on compartment oci compute instance list -c ocid1.compartment.oc1..aaaaaaaawmkoyiqsxkalddfg3xxapwk22yovanosn766hjr2xwhk7td7zusa --lifecycle-state RUNNING | jq -r '.data[]."id"'
