Worked on school work and did some AWS-SAA studying

7.20

Took a day break to focus on Linux+ work

7.19

Need to create architecture diagram + study for Linux+

7.18

Uploaded image to ECR, stored cookies in S3, and created container instance on ECS - everythings working round the clock. Left it on since yesterday evening, checked it today noon, and it still functions!!

Apparently you can include secrets in Docker @ runtime. How do you do this?

7.5

Okay, big breakthrough - headless mode IS possible. Trying to use Docker since this is the case.

Insane that t3.micro isn’t enough to even run the chrome installation process

  1. Stopped most of the VMs - its actually SO expensive to have like 6 VMs running for a month.
    • [] Action Item: Currently trying to replicate the whole project in a fresh t3.micro VM
    • [] Also need to try to fix the requirements.txt question about the WebDriver.
  2. Created a rough draft of the AWS-Console Documentation on how to create the VM
    • [] Need to finalize draft on 6.23 ideally.

Review of current status of the project:

  • The technical implementation works - however since I have a lot of VMs on at the moment, I have no clue which one hosts the working implementation.

    • Action Item: Clean up VMs and ensure only one stable machine remains

  • There has been some scope creep with trying to use Terraform + CloudFormation as methods to use to set up this project

    • Action Item: Delay this for a bit

  • Immedeate items that need to be addressed are:

    • [] The need to clean up documentation
    • Clean up the main readme (read: go through your checkboxes and organize them)
    • also note that need to not use the raspberry pi (“earlier in the project i was convinced that a raspberry pi was needed to get around being blocked by services, …”)
      • probably should create a new diagram without the pi
