This allows users of CloudSigma's VM to encode their user data with base64. In order to do that thet have to add the ``cloudinit-user-data`` field to the ``base64_fields``. The latter is a comma-separated field with all the meta fields whit base64 encoded values.

CloudSigma Datasource
This datasource finds metadata and user-data from the CloudSigma cloud platform. Data transfer occurs through a virtual serial port of the CloudSigma's VM and the presence of network adapter is NOT a requirement,
See server context in the public documentation for more information.
Setting a hostname
By default the name of the server will be applied as a hostname on the first boot.
Providing user-data
You can provide user-data to the VM using the dedicated meta
field in the server
context cloudinit-user-data
. By default
cloud-config format is expected there and the
#cloud-config
header could be omitted. However since this
is a raw-text field you could provide any of the valid config
formats.
You have the option to encode your user-data using Base64. In order
to do that you have to add the cloudinit-user-data
field to
the base64_fields
. The latter is a comma-separated field
with all the meta fields whit base64 encoded values.
If your user-data does not need an internet connection you can create
a meta
field in the server
context cloudinit-dsmode
and set "local" as value. If
this field does not exist the default value is "net".
