This directory contains a Terraform configuration to deploy
a bunch of Kubernetes clusters on various cloud providers, using their respective managed Kubernetes products.
To use it:
1. Select the provider you wish to use.
Change the `source` attribute of the `module "clusters"` section.
Check the content of the `modules` directory to see available choices.
```bash
vim main.tf
```
2. Initialize the provider.
```bash
terraform init
```
3. Configure provider authentication.
- Digital Ocean:
```bash
export DIGITALOCEAN_ACCESS_TOKEN=$(grep ^access-token ~/.config/doctl/config.yaml | cut -d: -f2 | tr -d " "
)
```
- Linode:
```bash
export LINODE_TOKEN=$(grep ^token ~/.config/linode-cli | cut -d= -f2 | tr -d " ")
```
- Oracle Cloud: it should use `~/.oci/config`
- Scaleway: run `scw init`
4. Decide how many clusters and how many nodes per clusters you want.
```bash
export TF_VAR_how_many_clusters=5
export TF_VAR_min_nodes_per_pool=2
# Optional (will enable autoscaler when available)
export TF_VAR_max_nodes_per_pool=4
# Optional (will only work on some providers)
export TF_VAR_enable_arm_pool=true
```
5. Provision clusters.
```bash
terraform apply
```
6. Perform second stage provisioning.
This will install a SSH server on the clusters.
```bash
cd stage2
terraform init
terraform apply
```
7. Obtain cluster connection information.
The following command shows connection information, one cluster per line, ready to copy-paste in a shared document or spreadsheet.
```bash
terraform output -json | jq -r 'to_entries[].value.value'
```
8. Destroy clusters.
```bash
cd ..
terraform destroy
```
9. Clean up stage2.
```bash
rm stage/terraform.tfstate*
```
