This whole repo should be loaded within a fed-dev container located at: https://quay.io/repository/v1k0d3n/fed-dev

How to use Terransikube:

1. Start a prebuilt container I created:

• docker run -dit --name <fed-dev> quay.io/v1k0d3n/fed-dev /bin/bash
• docker exec -it <container-id> bash
  NOTE: When naming your container, consider declaring your deployment destination (e.g. "fed-dev-projectname").

2. Clone this directory:

• git clone https://github.com/v1k0d3n/terransikube.git

3. Create ssh keys in ~/.ssh/

   [root@fed-dev]# ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "user@domain.com"
   Enter file in which to save the key (/root/.ssh/id_rsa): /root/.ssh/terraform
   

   NOTE: I recommend that you NOT enter a password for your ssh keys, but you may want to save them for later use. Remember that you can always mount your ~/.ssh/ directory using the '-v' flag when turning up your docker fed-dev container.

4. Change the values located in terra-deploy-only/variables.tf

5. Run terraform plan to make sure everything is working correctly, then terrafrom apply to launch your Openstack Deployment.

6. When finished, take the resulting IP addresses/names and add them to your /etc/hosts file (local in the fed-dev docker container).

7. Change directories to ../ansible-kube/.

8. Change the values in inventory.ini.

9. Look over and change any nessisary variables in ../group_vars/all.yml.

10. Run ./setup -i inventory.yaml in the /ansible-kube directory and that's it!

From nothing to Kubernetes production (with add-ons and DNS) in 10 easy steps.

Lastly, destroy your container. Done.

The big deal about kubernetes/contrib/ansible

The awesome thing about this ansible contrib code is that it will work for anything. The terraform deployment I have included will deploy Fedora/Centos easily, but if you already have a working base system running Ubuntu, Fedora, RedHat, CentOS, Atomic (CentOS/Fedora) it will run against it. Think of it this way: Terraform does the initial buildout in Openstack if you have Openstack and don't want to manually build out your servers. Ansible is more agnostic. Once the systems have been built (at a base level), Ansible will clean up and install everything needed for your production Kubernetes deployment. If you don't need or don't have an Openstack environment, no problem! Just run the Ansible scripts against your environment, making sure all variables are accurate (DNS/IP Entries/etc) and it will build out the environment for you.

To make things easier, I created a container in which you can do all of your development, called fed-dev. The fed-dev container has Terraform, Packer, Vagrant (for launching with --provider=openstack), and the Openstack clients needed to run immediately. All the prerequisites for running "Terransikube" are already install on the container (as mentioned above). Run the container, clone this repo, and run. Then destroy your container.
