progress report

may have finally sorted out how to reliably run a pub!

have been having problems with two cases where sbot goes unresponsive

• sbot ventures into some infinite loop that tries to do everything at once

• sbot dies but is left alone

(screenshots of Digital Ocean droplet monitoring for @ssb.rootsystems.nz, 1 GB mem, 1 vCPU)

i updated ssb-pub with:

• a health check: sbot whoami
• instructions for how to use healer to automatically restart unhealthy containers

so far so good, i think it's already restarted some unhealthy containers, keen to see how this progresses.

oh and salt stack, butt-as-a-service with associated private config works on a Scaleway server, right meow configuring salt itself!

next steps are to

• for each day, check in on the pubs, are they staying alive?
• butt-as-a-service
  • for each hub bot, provision a server with Salt Cloud
  • for each pub bot, setup ssb-pub docker with Salt on the hub
