InfraKit.GCP

InfraKit plugins for creating and managing resources in Google Cloud Platform.

Instance plugin

An InfraKit instance plugin which creates Google Compute Engine instances.

Building

To build the instance plugin, run make binaries. The plugin binary will be located at ./build/infrakit-instance-gcp.

Running

${PATH_TO_INFRAKIT}/infrakit-flavor-vanilla
${PATH_TO_INFRAKIT}/infrakit-group-default
./build/infrakit-instance-gcp --project=[GCP_PROJECT] --zone=[GCP_ZONE]

${PATH_TO_INFRAKIT}/infrakit group commit gcp-example-1.json

Project and zone selection

Google Cloud project and zone can be passed on the command line with --project and --zone. In case a value is not provided, the plugin will fallback to:

• Querying the Metadata server when running on GCE
• CLOUDSDK_CORE_PROJECT and CLOUDSDK_CORE_ZONE environment variables

Pets versus Cattle

Groups defined with an Allocation/Size will create 'cattle' instances that are fully disposable. When an instance is deleted, a completely new one will be recreated. this new instance will have a different name and a different disk.

Groups defined with an Allocation/LogicalIDs will create 'pet' instances. When an instance is deleted, a new one will be created, with the same name. It will also try to reuse the disk named after the instance if it was not deleted too.

Example configuration

{
  "ID": "gcp-example-1",
  "Properties": {
    "Allocation": {
      "Size": 1
    },
    "Instance": {
      "Plugin": "instance-gcp",
      "Properties": {
        "NamePrefix": "test",
        "Description": "Test of GCP infrakit",
        "Network": "default",
        "Tags": ["tag1", "tag2"],
        "MachineType": "n1-standard-1",
        "Disks":[{
            "Boot": true,
            "SizeGb": 60,
            "Image": "https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/ubuntu-os-cloud/global/images/ubuntu-1404-trusty-v20161205",
            "Type": "pd-standard"
        }],
        "Scopes": [
          "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloudruntimeconfig",
          "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/logging.write"
        ]
      }
    },
    "Flavor": {
      "Plugin": "flavor-vanilla",
      "Properties": {
        "Init": [
          "sh -c \"echo 'Hello, World!' > /hello\""
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Group plugin

An InfraKit group plugin which wraps Google Compute Engine's managed instance groups.

Building

To build the group plugin, run make binaries. The plugin binary will be located at ./build/infrakit-group-gcp.

Running

${PATH_TO_INFRAKIT}/infrakit-flavor-vanilla
./build/infrakit-instance-gcp --project=[GCP_PROJECT] --zone=[GCP_ZONE] --name=group

${PATH_TO_INFRAKIT}/infrakit group commit gcp-example-2.json

Project and zone selection

Works the same as the instance plugin.

Pets versus Cattle

This plugin supports only pets via Allocation/Size. It doesn't support Allocation/LogicalIDs. This plugin doesn't need an instance plugin since instances are managed directly by GCP.

Example configuration

{
  "ID": "gcp-example-2",
  "Properties": {
    "Allocation": {
      "Size": 2
    },
    "Instance": {
      "Properties": {
        "Description": "Test of GCP infrakit",
        "Network": "default",
        "Tags": ["tag1", "tag2"],
        "MachineType": "n1-standard-1",
        "Disks":[{
            "Boot": true,
            "SizeGb": 60,
            "Image": "https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/ubuntu-os-cloud/global/images/ubuntu-1404-trusty-v20161205",
            "Type": "pd-standard",
            "AutoDelete": false,
            "ReuseExisting": true
        }],
        "Scopes": [
          "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloudruntimeconfig",
          "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/logging.write"
        ]
      }
    },
    "Flavor": {
      "Plugin": "flavor-vanilla",
      "Properties": {
        "Init": [
          "sh -c \"echo 'Hello, World!' > /hello\""
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}
