SIFT

This is a metadata repository that is primarily used for discussiosn and issue tracking.

  • cast -- installer cli
  • saltstack -- states that actually do the work
  • packer -- builds machine images using the above tools
  • package-scripts -- builds certain packages hosted in SIFT PPA

Supported Distros

  • 20.04 Ubuntu (Focal)
  • 22.04 Ubuntu (Jammy)

Installation

Cast is the replacement to the SIFT CLI. While the SIFT CLI should continue to work it is officially deprecated as of March 1, 2023 and will no longer be guaranteed to work after that date.

You must first install the CLI tool, then you can install SIFT.

sudo cast install teamdfir/sift-saltstack
