Oracle Free Tier Instance Creation (Docker Only)

This project automates the creation of Oracle Cloud Free Tier compute instances using Docker. All configuration and credentials are managed via mounted files for security and portability.

Prerequisites

• Docker installed on your system
• Oracle Cloud account with required API credentials
• The following files in your project directory:
  • oci.env: Environment variables for OCI
  • oci_config: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure config file
  • oci_api_private_key.pem: Private API key
  • ssh_public_key.pub: SSH public key for instance access

Usage with Public Docker Image

You do not need to build the image yourself. To launch the script, use the public Docker image provided on GitHub Container Registry.

Create a docker-compose.yml file with the following content:

services:
  oracle-freetier:
    image: ghcr.io/nyamort/oracle-freetier-instance-creation:latest
    volumes:
      - ./oci.env:/app/oci.env:ro
      - ./oci_config:/app/oci_config:ro
      - ./oci_api_private_key.pem:/app/oci_api_private_key.pem:ro
      - ./ssh_public_key.pub:/app/ssh_public_key.pub:ro
    environment:
      - OCI_ENV_FILE=/app/oci.env

Then, simply run:

docker-compose up
