Details

Would be really nice if there was an endpoint for returning the UserData for a given worker type, instance type and region.

This is not needed in production, but can be useful for testing or for troubleshooting / diagnostics etc.

Just a nice to have.
Documentation for how to construct this userdata might be nice...
A cli tool in aws-provisioner for providing this... Or a tool in tools for giving out debug information like this...

But, I don't like adding APIs for the purpose of generating information to debug stuff..

Maybe this could also be solved by create an instance once a workerType definition have been updated.

Note: this is also visible in aws console.

I'm not sure why I requested this, but I don't think it has much value when I look at this today. It is already possible to get the worker type definition which contains all of this information - so not sure why I thought there should be another endpoint. Maybe at the time, I didn't realise that, who knows...
