2010-01-06add cloud-init-run-module and ec2init/execute.pyScott Moser
cloud-init-run-module handles some boilerplate code for running items on a 'frequency'. It has the following usefulness - a config module can be put into ec2init dir and implement a 'run' method that takes a list of arguments and the path to a config file - it handles invoking module.run() only at a given frequency This is similar to karmic's ec2init's "run_once_ever" or run_once_per_ami execute.py is an example module that executes the arguments given to it An example usage in an upstart job would be with a 'exec' line like: exec cloud-init-run-module once_per_ami clean-core execute rm /var/run/core The above would then run the command 'rm /var/run/core' only once
