terraform-google-gke-autopilot-cluster

A Terraform module to create and manage a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster with autopilot enabled.

This module supports Terraform version 1 and is compatible with the Terraform Google Provider Beta version ~> 4.34

This module is part of our Infrastructure as Code (IaC) framework that enables our users and customers to easily deploy and manage reusable, secure, and production-grade cloud infrastructure.

Module Features

This module implements the following Terraform resources

  • google_container_cluster

Note: This module comes without support for the default node pool or its autoscaling since it can't be managed properly with Terraform. Please use our terraform-google-gke-node-pool module instead for deploying and managing node groups for your clusters.

Getting Started

Most common usage of the module:

module "terraform-google-gke-autopilot-cluster" {
  source = "[email protected]:mineiros-io/terraform-google-gke-autopilot-cluster.git?ref=v0.1.0"

  name       = "gke-example"
  network    = "vpc_self_link"
  subnetwork = "subnetwork_self_link"

  master_ipv4_cidr_block = "10.4.96.0/28"

  ip_allocation_policy = {
    cluster_secondary_range_name  = "pod_range_name"
    services_secondary_range_name = "services_range_name"
  }
}

Module Argument Reference

See variables.tf and examples/ for details and use-cases.

Main Resource Configuration

  • name: (Required string)

    The name of the cluster.

  • location: (Optional string)

    The location region in which the cluster master will be created. Please note that autopilot only supports regional clusters.

  • network: (Optional string)

    The name or self_link of the Google Compute Engine network to which the cluster is connected.

    Note: For Shared VPC, set this to the self link of the shared network.

  • subnetwork: (Optional string)

    The name or self_link of the Google Compute Engine subnetwork in which the cluster's instances are launched.

  • networking_mode: (Optional string)

    Determines whether alias IPs or routes will be used for pod IPs in the cluster.

    Options are VPC_NATIVE or ROUTES. VPC_NATIVE enables IP aliasing, and requires the ip_allocation_policy block to be defined.

    Using a VPC-native cluster is the recommended approach by Google. For an overview of benefits of VPC-native clusters, please see https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/concepts/alias-ips#benefits

    Default is "VPC_NATIVE".

  • project: (Optional string)

    The ID of the project in which the resource belongs. If it is not set, the provider project is used.

  • rbac_security_identity_group: (Optional string)

    The name of the RBAC security identity group for use with Google security groups in Kubernetes RBAC. Group name must be in format [email protected]. For details please see https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/google-groups-rbac

  • min_master_version: (Optional string)

    The minimum version of the Kubernetes master. GKE will auto-update the master to new versions, so this does not guarantee the current master version uses the read-only master_version field to obtain that. If unset, the cluster's version will be set by GKE to the version of the most recent official release.

  • cluster_ipv4_cidr: (Optional string)

    The IP address range of the Kubernetes pods in this cluster in CIDR notation (e.g. 10.96.0.0/14). Leave blank to have one automatically chosen or specify a /14 block in 10.0.0.0/8.

    Note: This field will only work for routes-based clusters, where ip_allocation_policy is not defined.

  • enable_kubernetes_alpha: (Optional bool)

    Whether to enable Kubernetes Alpha features for this cluster. Note that when this option is enabled, the cluster cannot be upgraded and will be automatically deleted after 30 days.

    Default is false.

  • addon_horizontal_pod_autoscaling: (Optional bool)

    Whether to enable the horizontal pod autoscaling addon.

    Default is true.

  • addon_http_load_balancing: (Optional bool)

    Whether to enable the httpload balancer addon.

    Default is true.

  • ip_allocation_policy: (Optional object(ip_allocation_policy))

    Configuration of cluster IP allocation for VPC-native clusters.

    Note: This field will only work for VPC-native clusters.

    Example:

    readme_example = {
      cluster_ipv4_cidr_block  = "10.4.128.0/17"

    • cluster_ipv4_cidr_block: (Optional string)

      The IP address range for the cluster pod IPs. Set to blank to have a range chosen with the default size. Set to /netmask (e.g. /14) to have a range chosen with a specific netmask. Set to a CIDR notation (e.g. 10.96.0.0/14) from the RFC-1918 private networks (e.g. 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16) to pick a specific range to use. Conflicts with cluster_secondary_range_name.

    • services_ipv4_cidr_block: (Optional string)

      The IP address range of the services IPs in this cluster. Set to blank to have a range chosen with the default size. Set to /netmask (e.g. /14) to have a range chosen with a specific netmask. Set to a CIDR notation (e.g. 10.96.0.0/14) from the RFC-1918 private networks (e.g. 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16) to pick a specific range to use. Conflicts with cluster_secondary_range_name.

    • cluster_secondary_range_name: (Optional string)

      The name of the existing secondary range in the cluster's subnetwork to use for pod IP addresses. Alternatively, cluster_ipv4_cidr_block can be used to automatically create a GKE-managed one. Conflicts with cluster_ipv4_cidr_block.

    • services_secondary_range_name: (Optional string)

      The name of the existing secondary range in the cluster's subnetwork to use for service ClusterIPs. Alternatively, services_ipv4_cidr_block can be used to automatically create a GKE-managed one. Conflicts with services_ipv4_cidr_block.

Module Versioning

This Module follows the principles of Semantic Versioning (SemVer).

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, we increment the:

  1. MAJOR version when we make incompatible changes,
  2. MINOR version when we add functionality in a backwards compatible manner, and
  3. PATCH version when we make backwards compatible bug fixes.

Backwards compatibility in 0.0.z and 0.y.z version

  • Backwards compatibility in versions 0.0.z is not guaranteed when z is increased. (Initial development)
  • Backwards compatibility in versions 0.y.z is not guaranteed when y is increased. (Pre-release)
