So far so good! It's the wrong version. The email isn't plumbed in yet. I need Certbot running. And it throws 502 errors every few clicks as, I guess, the load balancer isn't quite right. But otherwise I'm stoked. It only takes 4 worker nodes.

Next step in running my own Mastodon server:

✔️ Keep a fork of the Mastodon code in Github.
✔️ Sync that fork to my company's Gitlab server. (I own the company so it's ok.)
✔️ Add a CI/CD pipeline file that builds the Docker image and let it run each time the code changes.
✔️ Periodically review changes in Mastodon and sync that on Github to start the build.

Still to do : Get the mailgun account, then using Terraform, setup Cloud SQL Postgres, Redis, and maybe setup Elasticsearch

Recent #autumn #photography from #Scotland. Just seeing how many I can post at once.

Building a Mastodon service - phase 1. Write some Terraform to spin up an autoscaling GKE cluster on Google Cloud, and then get the Terraform into my Gitlab with a CI/CD pipeline.

Further work will be to spin up a SQL Cloud Postgres instance, then Elasticsearch and Redis.
