droplet_freeze function

Freeze/thaw droplets.

Freeze powers off the droplet, snapshots to create an image, and deletes the droplet. Thaw performs the inverse: it takes an image and turns it into a running droplet.

droplet_freeze(droplet, name = droplet$name, ...)

droplet_thaw(image, ...)

Arguments

• droplet: A droplet, or something that can be coerced to a droplet by as.droplet.
• name: Name for the image to be created, or to be used to create a new droplet. Defaults to name of the droplet.
• ...: For freeze, further args passed on to droplet_snapshot; thaw, args passed on to droplet_create.
• image: Image to thaw into a droplet.

Returns

droplet_freeze accepts a droplet as first argument, and returns an image; droplet_thaw does the opposite: it accepts an image as first argument, and returns a droplet.

Examples

## Not run:

# freeze
droplet_create(region = 'nyc3') %>% droplet_freeze()

# thaw
droplet_thaw(image='chiromantical-1412718795', region='nyc3')
## End(Not run)
