# Wolkenbrot
## bakes and manages your cloud images (AWS and OpenStack)
wolkenbrot is named after a German children's title called Wolkenbrot by
the Korean authors Baek Hee Na Kim Hyang Soo. The translation to English is
cloud's bread.
Wolken brot is inspired by packer[1] and kujenga[2], removing fabric as a
dependency. It also aims to be more tested and documented.
In case you wonder, yes it's similar to packer by Hashicorp.
But here are some reasons that you might like it better than packer:
1. It's written in Python.
2. It's not written in Go.
3. It can use private AMI as a starting point for your build.
4. It's smaller and easier to hack on.
5. It has a cooler name.
6. It has a better license, MIT sounds way better then MPL-2. Especially because it means "with" in German.
### how is it different from Packer or kujenga?
1. It is Python3 only.
2. It does not depend on fabric.
3. It replaces boto with boto3
4. It's name is not Swahili, but rather German.
5. It adds the ability to list your images
6. It adds the ability to get detailed information about an image from the CLI.
7. It adds the ability to de-register images from the CLI.

```
You can remove the image with:

```
Wolkenbrot follows boto3 configuration principles, so if you wonder how to
pass AWS configuration parameters, take a look in [Boto3's own documentation][3]

If you can run Python on your OS, it might run.

Yes, just install them via shell first, then call the right binary with the correct playbook\state\formula..
### Testing and Installing the test requirements
Simply issue:
```
$ pip install -e ".[dev]"
$ make test
