terraform-operator

Use K8s to Run Terraform

Terraform-operator has two components to it, the operator and the executor.

The operator creates three CRDs and runs controllers for modules and executions. A module is the building block and is the same as a terraform module. This is referenced from an execution which is used to combine all information needed to run Terraform. The execution combines Terraform variables and environment variables from secrets and/or config maps to provide to the executor.

The executor is a job that runs Terraform. Taking input from the execution run CRD the executor runs terraform init, terraform plan and terraform create/destroy depending on the context.

Executions have a 1-to-many relationship with execution runs, as updates or changes are made in the module or execution additional runs are created to update the terraform resources.

Building

make

Running

./bin/terraform-operator

Running the Executor in Docker - Useful for testing the Executor

docker run -d -v "/Path/To/Kubeconfig:/root/.kube/config" -e "KUBECONFIG=/root/.kube/config" -e "EXECUTOR_RUN_NAME=RUN_NAME" -e "EXECUTOR_ACTION=create" rancher/terraform-executor:dev
