This demonstrates what infra-as-code might look like. Given the difficulties in expressing everything purely as metadata, I've decided to embark upon a little spike to see what this would look like. At first glance, I like it. To see the difference, compare these to the Mu.yaml files alongside them. |

Mu
Mu is a framework and toolset for creating reusable stacks of services.
Building and Testing
To build Mu, first clone it into a standard Go workspace:
$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/marapongo
$ git clone git@github.com:marapongo/mu $GOPATH/src/github.com/marapongo/mu
A good default value for GOPATH is ~/go.
Mu needs to know where to look for its runtime, library, etc. By default, it will look in /usr/local/mu, however you
can override this with the MUPATH variable. Normally it's easiest just to create a symlink:
$ ln -s $GOPATH/src/github.com/marapongo/mu /usr/local/mu
There is one additional build-time dependency, golint, which can be installed using:
$ go get -u github.com/golang/lint/golint
And placed on your path by:
$ export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
At this point you should be able to build and run tests from the root directory:
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/marapongo/mu
$ make
This installs the mu binary into $GOPATH/bin, which may now be run provided make exited successfully.
