Avete bisogno di un modo per ottenere rapidamente uno stack LAMP che sia automaticamente messo a punto, modificato e ottimizzato per voi? Avete mai desiderato un modo per distribuire uno stack Wordpress che funzionasse subito? Che ne dite di un modo semplice per distribuire un cluster di Linodes configurati in modo identico?
StackScripts™ forniscono un modo flessibile per personalizzare i nostri modelli di distribuzione. Sono molto facili da usare: si trova uno StackScript, si risponde alle sue domande e si fa clic su deploy. Quando la distribuzione viene avviata per la prima volta, lo script viene eseguito e fa il suo dovere. È anche possibile osservare i suoi progressi visualizzando la console.
StackScripts può essere privato per il proprio account, condiviso per la comunità Linode o scelto dalla nostra libreria di open source StackScripts. Il sistema di autorizzazioni di Linode Manager Users and Grants consente di limitare chi può utilizzare o modificare il sito StackScripts privato. Linode API può anche gestire StackScripts, quindi la gestione può essere integrata nel flusso di lavoro esistente.
È possibile sfogliare il repository di StackScripts pubblico dal Linode Manager. Si noterà anche un nuovo collegamento dalla pagina di distribuzione per il deploy da uno StackScript e nella scheda principale di Linodes un collegamento all'editor di StackScript.

Wow this is great news. Certainly will speed up work, thanks!
All I can say is WOW. This will save so much time when deploying a linode! Thanks!
Sounds great.
@Linode Question: How do I upgrade my packages once I’ve deployed a stack (LAMP).
Meaning, say I deploy your LAMP script. Then a year goes by and a new version of Apache, MySQL or PHP is available. How do I upgrade to the newest “StackScript” packages?
@Tim once deployed, you maintain the Linux deployment like any other – apt-get/yum/etc.
nice, but will automatic updates work with wordpress stackscripts?
it’s a great idea…
Automatic updates of what?
Ultimately it depends on what a StackScript does. The ones that we’ve created use the distro’s packages, so upgrading the packages later on would work just fine. Some StackScripts may install software from source, so in that case you’d want to stay away from the distro’s packaged version. It really depends.
How does this compare to chef-solo?
I think this is a great idea. I remember when I first set up my LAMP, I followed a tutorial and mostly copy and pasted the commands. This should amount to the same thing. One question though, are these scripts going to be given maintainers to ensure they are allays kept up to date?
We’re committed to maintaining ours. I can’t speak for the user-contributed ones. If they’re popular enough, we’ll pick them up and release them as supported versions…
Its nice, but this is not Linode original. This was an innovation from some other company, I remember reading about it not sure of the name. I even remember Caker saying it was ‘gimmicky’.
I m happy that I can now recommend linode to simple users.
Webbynode’s scripts was a nice idea, but still the vps itself missed a lot of the features of linode,because they did not want to make it complicated for users.
Night support guy, european node, now scripts.
A few more improvements, and for sure you will set new standards in the competition.
I hope there will be possibility for community scripts, and a rating/security check system web application for them.
I m happy that lately you hear your customers, and you do what is necessary to keep them happy.
Competition helps all of the industry, technology proceeds like that, and there is real progress.
Congratulations!
Very cool! I’m looking forward to creating a StackScript for our Project Mercury high-performance Drupal installation. 🙂
A script to install debian+dtc+mysql+php+apache would be great for those that want to easily set up and manage multiple sites.
Is there any way we could browse the generally available includes such as the “StackScript Bash Library” without going into another stackscript? It would be nice to know what includes are available, quickly.
Will Linode be deploying a mail setup? I’m rather looking forward to that one.
@Josh Koenig I’m looking forward to that! Bring it!
Excellent. I have only been with Linode for 3 months but already I am a hardcore fan.
It’s been quite in Linode-land lately.
Any new updates?
