Brightbox Cloud module for fog (The Ruby cloud services library)

This gem is a module for the fog gem that allows you to manage resources in the Brightbox Cloud.

It is included by the main fog metagem but can used as an independent library in other applications.

This includes support for the following services:

  • Compute
    • Images
    • Load Balancers
    • SQL Cloud instances

Currently all services are grouped within compute but will be moved to their own sections when standardisation of fog progresses.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "fog-brightbox"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install fog-brightbox

Usage

Please see the following references for instructions using the main fog gem and its modules:

Ruby version support

As required by the main fog-core library, support for Ruby 1.9 was dropped in v1.0.0 of this gem.

Upstream changes on dependencies have resulted in support failing for Ruby <2.3 from v1.12.0 due to some libraries failing to declare usage of newer language features in their own gemspec files.

As of 2024 fog-core is only testing for Ruby 3.0+ support.
