Update docs on using Butane snippets for customization
* Typhoon now consistently uses Butane Configs for snippets (variant `fcos` or `flatcar`). Previously snippets were either Butane Configs (on FCOS) or Container Linux Configs (on Flatcar) * Update docs on uploading Flatcar Linux DigitalOcean images * Update docs on uploading Fedora CoreOS Azure images

## Hosts

Typhoon uses the [Ignition](https://github.com/coreos/ignition) system of Fedora CoreOS and Flatcar Linux to immutably declare a system via first-boot disk provisioning. Fedora CoreOS uses a [Butane Config](https://coreos.github.io/butane/specs/) and Flatcar Linux uses a [Container Linux Config](https://github.com/coreos/container-linux-config-transpiler/blob/master/doc/examples.md) (CLC). These define disk partitions, filesystems, systemd units, dropins, config files, mount units, raid arrays, and users.
|
||||
### Background
|
||||
|
||||
Controller and worker instances form a minimal and secure Kubernetes cluster on each platform. Typhoon provides the **snippets** feature to accept Butane or Container Linux Configs to validate and additively merge into instance declarations. This allows advanced host customization and experimentation.

Human-friendly [Butane Configs](https://coreos.github.io/butane/specs/) define disk partitions, filesystems, systemd units, dropins, config files, mount units, raid arrays, users, and more before being converted to Ignition.

!!! note
|

Snippets cannot be used to modify an already existing instance, the antithesis of immutable provisioning. Ignition fully declares a system on first boot only.

|

Edits to snippets for controller instances can (correctly) cause Terraform to observe a diff (if not otherwise suppressed) and propose destroying and recreating controller(s). Recognize that this is destructive since controllers run etcd and are stateful. See [blue/green](/topics/maintenance/#upgrades) clusters.

### Fedora CoreOS

|

!!! note
|

Fedora CoreOS snippets require `terraform-provider-ct` v0.5+
|
||||
### Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Define a Butane Config ([docs](https://coreos.github.io/butane/specs/), [config](https://github.com/coreos/butane/blob/main/docs/config-fcos-v1_4.md)) in version control near your Terraform workspace directory (e.g. perhaps in a `snippets` subdirectory). You may organize snippets into multiple files, if desired.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, ensure an `/opt/hello` file is created with permissions 0644.
|
||||
For example, ensure an `/opt/hello` file is created with permissions 0644 before boot.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# custom-files
|
||||
variant: fcos
|
||||
version: 1.4.0
|
||||
storage:
|
||||
=== "Fedora CoreOS"
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# custom-files.yaml
|
||||
variant: fcos
|
||||
version: 1.4.0
|
||||
storage:
|
||||
files:
|
||||
- path: /opt/hello
|
||||
contents:
|
||||
inline: |
|
||||
Hello World
|
||||
mode: 0644
|
||||
```
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Reference the FCC contents by location (e.g. `file("./custom-units.yaml")`). On [AWS](/fedora-coreos/aws/#cluster) or [Google Cloud](/fedora-coreos/google-cloud/#cluster) extend the `controller_snippets` or `worker_snippets` list variables.
|
||||
=== "Flatcar Linux"
|
||||
|
||||
```tf
|
||||
module "nemo" {
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
controller_count = 1
|
||||
worker_count = 2
|
||||
controller_snippets = [
|
||||
file("./custom-files"),
|
||||
file("./custom-units"),
|
||||
]
|
||||
worker_snippets = [
|
||||
file("./custom-files"),
|
||||
file("./custom-units")",
|
||||
]
|
||||
...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
On [Bare-Metal](/fedora-coreos/bare-metal/#cluster), different FCCs may be used for each node (since hardware may be heterogeneous). Extend the `snippets` map variable by mapping a controller or worker name key to a list of snippets.
|
||||
|
||||
```tf
|
||||
module "mercury" {
|
||||
...
|
||||
snippets = {
|
||||
"node2" = [file("./units/hello.yaml")]
|
||||
"node3" = [
|
||||
file("./units/world.yaml"),
|
||||
file("./units/hello.yaml"),
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Flatcar Linux
|
||||
|
||||
Define a Container Linux Config (CLC) ([config](https://github.com/coreos/container-linux-config-transpiler/blob/master/doc/configuration.md), [examples](https://github.com/coreos/container-linux-config-transpiler/blob/master/doc/examples.md)) in version control near your Terraform workspace directory (e.g. perhaps in a `snippets` subdirectory). You may organize snippets into multiple files, if desired.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, ensure an `/opt/hello` file is created with permissions 0644.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# custom-files
|
||||
storage:
|
||||
```yaml

|
||||
Hello World
|
||||
mode: 0644
|
||||
```
|
||||
```
|
||||
|

Or ensure a systemd unit `hello.service` is created and a dropin `50-etcd-cluster.conf` is added for `etcd-member.service`.
