🎯 Overview

This PR adds a comprehensive, production-ready HashiCorp Boundary automation suite to the repository. The suite provides automated installation, configuration, and management tools for HashiCorp Boundary with seamless HCP (HashiCorp Cloud Platform) integration.

📦 What's Included

Core Automation Scripts (7 executable shell scripts)

The suite includes fully automated tools for managing Boundary:

  • install-boundary.sh - Intelligent installer that detects OS/architecture and installs Boundary CLI v0.20.0+ent
  • configure-hcp.sh - Interactive configuration wizard supporting multiple authentication methods (Service Principal, Password, OIDC)
  • setup-targets.sh - Menu-driven target management for SSH, HTTP, and Database targets
  • complete-setup.sh - Beautiful interactive menu system with ASCII art, progress bars, and 9 different options
  • auto-connect.sh - One-command automation that handles installation, configuration, and connection
  • boundary-connect.sh - Quick connect helper for rapid target access
  • boundary-ssh.sh - SSH proxy helper for transparent SSH connections through Boundary

Docker Test Environment

A complete Docker Compose setup with 6 pre-configured services ready for testing:

  • OpenSSH Server (port 2222) - SSH access testing
  • PostgreSQL 15 (port 5432) - Database connection testing
  • MySQL 8.0 (port 3306) - Alternative database testing
  • Redis 7 (port 6379) - Cache/database testing
  • Custom Web Application (port 8080) - HTTP target testing
  • NGINX (port 8081) - Static web serving

The sample-web/ directory includes a custom test web application with branded HTML/CSS and proper nginx configuration.

Comprehensive Documentation

Original prompt

@m365agents Perfect! I've successfully created a complete HashiCorp Boundary automation suite for you. Here's what I've built:

🎯 Complete HashiCorp Boundary Automation Suite

📁 Project Structure:

  1. complete-setup.sh - Interactive menu-driven setup with beautiful UI
  2. auto-connect.sh - One-command automated setup and connection
  3. install-boundary.sh - Boundary CLI installer (v0.20.0+ent)
  4. configure-hcp.sh - HCP configuration wizard
  5. setup-targets.sh - Target and resource management
  6. docker-compose.yml - Complete Docker test environment
  7. README.md - Comprehensive documentation
  8. sample-web/ - Test web application

🚀 Quick Start:

# Method 1: Interactive Menu (Recommended)
cd /home/user/boundary-automation
./complete-setup.sh

# Method 2: Fully Automated
./auto-connect.sh

# Method 3: With Docker
docker-compose up -d

✨ Key Features:

  1. Automated Installation - Installs Boundary CLI automatically
  2. HCP Integration - Connects to your HCP Boundary cluster
  3. Target Management - Creates and manages targets, hosts, credentials
  4. Multiple Auth Methods - Supports password, OIDC, service principal
  5. Docker Environment - Complete test environment with multiple targets
  6. Terraform Generation - Creates IaC configurations
  7. Helper Scripts - Quick connect and SSH proxy scripts

🔐 Your Specific Configuration:

Based on your URLs, the automation is pre-configured with:

  • Organization ID: 904182ed-28ef-4c76-849e-d444545f9a2a
  • Project ID: 1856f618-0793-41f4-9610-1f93f4011ab6
  • Cluster: boundary-cluster
  • Version: 0.20.0+ent

📋 What You Need:

  1. HCP Service Principal Credentials:

  2. Run the Setup:

    cd /home/user/boundary-automation
    ./complete-setup.sh
    # Select Option 1 for automated setup

🎮 Usage Examples:

# List targets
./boundary-connect.sh list

# Connect to a target
./boundary-connect.sh ttcp_1234567890

# SSH through Boundary
./boundary-ssh.sh ttcp_1234567890

# Start Docker test environment
docker-compose up -d

🔄 Connection Workflow:

The automation handles all the complexity and provides a clean, user-friendly interface for managing your Boundary infrastructure. All scripts are fully executable and ready to use!

Would you like me to:

  1. Add more specific target configurations?
  2. Create Kubernetes integration scripts?
  3. Set up CI/CD pipeline integration?
  4. Add monitoring and alerting capabilities?1. https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/replika-ai-friend/5620852627988042/?utm_source=replika
