It started as a Python CLI for CloudStack 4.0-era installations and later moved to the modern Go-based cmk tool used with newer CloudStack deployments. ### Projektgeschichte Apache CloudStack's early wiki described cloudmonkey as a Python command-line interface for CloudStack, usable both interactively and as a command-line tool for configuration and management. The modern Apache repository now explains that CloudMonkey was rewritten and simplified in Go, with compatibility for Apache CloudStack 4.9 and later, while the legacy Python version served CloudStack 4.0-incubating and later. The Go rewrite became the package-manager-relevant lineage: it ships as the cmk executable, stores configuration under ~/.cmk, and is released separately from the main CloudStack server project while remaining part of the Apache CloudStack ecosystem. ### Adoptionsgeschichte CloudMonkey's adoption follows CloudStack operators rather than the broader cloud-native ecosystem. Apache's downloads page lists CloudMonkey releases next to CloudStack source releases and the CloudStack Terraform provider, and third-party CloudStack operators have documented cmk as the practical front end to the CloudStack API. ### Wie es verwendet wird CloudMonkey is used to call CloudStack APIs, manage resources, script administrative tasks, and work in an interactive shell without relying on the web UI. Official repository documentation describes it as simplifying Apache CloudStack configuration and management, and release notes continue to improve CLI mode, output handling, 2FA prompts, autocompletion, and upload workflows. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren CloudMonkey matters to package maintainers because it represents a long-lived infrastructure CLI that crossed language and distribution eras: a Python PyPI-style tool became a standalone Go binary named cmk, distributed through Homebrew, MacPorts, Nix, Docker, GitHub releases, and Apache source releases. It is also a useful example of an Apache project adjunct tool packaged independently from a larger server platform. ### Zeitleiste - 2012: Apache CloudStack wiki documented the Python cloudmonkey CLI for CloudStack 4.0-incubating and later. - 2018: CloudMonkey 6.0 marked the modern Go-based cmk rewrite and simplified feature set. - 2023: Apache mirrors carried CloudMonkey 6.3.0 source releases. - 2025: CloudMonkey 6.5.0 added upload improvements, 2FA prompts, and better autocompletion. - 2026: Apache downloads listed CloudMonkey 6.5.0 as the current CloudMonkey release. ### Related projects - CloudMonkey is tied directly to Apache CloudStack and its API surface. Nearby operator tools include the Apache CloudStack Terraform Provider, the CloudStack web UI, and automation stacks that call the CloudStack API through libraries or infrastructure-as-code providers. ### Quellen - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise Für cloudmonkey wurde kein passendes lokales Secret-Handling-Manifest gefunden.
