* Allow upgrading to the v5.x Google Cloud Terrform Provider
* Relax the version constraint to ease future compatibility,
though it does allow users to upgrade prematurely
* With Cilium v1.14, Cilium's kube-proxy partial mode changed to
either be enabled or disabled (not partial). This somtimes leaves
Cilium (and the host) unable to reach the kube-apiserver via the
in-cluster Kubernetes Service IP, until the host is rebooted
* As a workaround, configure Cilium to rely on external DNS resolvers
to find the IP address of the apiserver. This is less portable
and less "clean" than using in-cluster discovery, but also what
Cilium wants users to do. Revert this when the upstream issue
https://github.com/cilium/cilium/issues/27982 is resolved
* Allow passing a dummy RSA key to Azure to satisfy its obtuse
requirements (recommend deleting the corresponding private key)
* Then `ssh_authorized_key` can be used to provide Fedora CoreOS
or Flatcar Linux with a modern ed25519 public key to set in the
authorized_keys via Ignition
* aws provider v5.0+ works alright and should be permitted,
relax the version constraint for the Typhoon AWS kubernetes
module and worker module for Fedora CoreOS and Flatcar Linux
* When invalid Ignition snippets are provided to Typhoon, it
can be useful to view Azure's boot logs for the instance, which
requires boot diagnostics be enabled
* Add an internal `worker` module to the bare-metal module, to
allow individual bare-metal machines to be defined and joined
to an existing bare-metal cluster. This is similar to the "worker
pools" modules for adding sets of nodes to cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure)
clusters, but on metal, each piece of hardware is potentially
unique
New: Using the new `worker` module, a Kubernetes cluster can be defined
without any `workers` (i.e. just a control-plane). Use the `worker`
module to define each piece machine that should join the bare-metal
cluster and customize it in detail. This style is quite flexible and
suited for clusters with hardware that varies quite a bit.
```tf
module "mercury" {
source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon//bare-metal/flatcar-linux/kubernetes?ref=v1.26.2"
# bare-metal
cluster_name = "mercury"
matchbox_http_endpoint = "http://matchbox.example.com"
os_channel = "flatcar-stable"
os_version = "2345.3.1"
# configuration
k8s_domain_name = "node1.example.com"
ssh_authorized_key = "ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nz..."
# machines
controllers = [{
name = "node1"
mac = "52:54:00:a1:9c:ae"
domain = "node1.example.com"
}]
}
```
```tf
module "mercury-node1" {
source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon//bare-metal/flatcar-linux/kubernetes/worker?ref=v1.26.2"
cluster_name = "mercury"
# bare-metal
matchbox_http_endpoint = "http://matchbox.example.com"
os_channel = "flatcar-stable"
os_version = "2345.3.1"
# configuration
name = "node2"
mac = "52:54:00:b2:2f:86"
domain = "node2.example.com"
kubeconfig = module.mercury.kubeconfig
ssh_authorized_key = "ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nz..."
# optional
snippets = []
node_labels = []
node_tains = []
install_disk = "/dev/vda"
cached_install = false
}
```
For clusters with fairly similar hardware, you may continue to
define `workers` directly within the cluster definition. This
reduces some repetition, but is not quite as flexible.
```tf
module "mercury" {
source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon//bare-metal/flatcar-linux/kubernetes?ref=v1.26.1"
# bare-metal
cluster_name = "mercury"
matchbox_http_endpoint = "http://matchbox.example.com"
os_channel = "flatcar-stable"
os_version = "2345.3.1"
# configuration
k8s_domain_name = "node1.example.com"
ssh_authorized_key = "ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nz..."
# machines
controllers = [{
name = "node1"
mac = "52:54:00:a1:9c:ae"
domain = "node1.example.com"
}]
workers = [
{
name = "node2",
mac = "52:54:00:b2:2f:86"
domain = "node2.example.com"
},
{
name = "node3",
mac = "52:54:00:c3:61:77"
domain = "node3.example.com"
}
]
}
```
Optional variables `snippets`, `worker_node_labels`, and
`worker_node_taints` are still defined as a map from machine name
to a list of snippets, labels, or taints respectively to allow some
degree of per-machine customization. However, fields like
`install_disk`, `kernel_args`, `cached_install` and future options
will not be designed this way. Instead, if your machines vary it
is recommended to use the new `worker` module to define each node
* Terraform supports sourcing modules from either Git repos or from
their own hosted Terraform Module Registry, introduced a few years ago
* Typhoon docs have always shown using Git-based module sources, not
the Terraform Module Registry. For example, module usage should be
`source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/...` not
`source = poseidon/kubernetes/...`
* Typhoon published Flatcar Linux modules (CoreOS Container Linux at the time)
to Terraform Module Registry, but the approach has a number of drawbacks
for publishers and for users.
* Terraform's Module Registry requires subtree mirroring Typhoon to special
terraform-platform-kubernetes repos. This distorts Git history,
requires special automation, and the registry's naming requirements
don't allow us to publish our full matrix of modules (Fedora CoreOS
and Flatcar Linux, across AWS, Azure, GCP, on-prem, and DigitalOcean)
* Terraform's Module Registry only supports release versions (no commit SHAs
or forks)
* Ultimately, the Terraform Module Registry limits user flexibility, has
tedious publishing constraints, and introduces centralization where the
current decentralized Git-based approach is simpler and more featureful
Note: This does not affect Terraform _Providers_ like `poseidon/matchbox`
or `poseidon/ct`. For Terraform providers, Terraform's centralized
platform eases provider plugin installation and provides value
