terraform-aws-eks

A terraform module to create a managed Kubernetes cluster on AWS EKS. Available through the Terraform registry. Inspired by and adapted from this doc and its source code. Read the AWS docs on EKS to get connected to the k8s dashboard.

Branch	Build status
master

Assumptions

You want to create an EKS cluster and an autoscaling group of workers for the cluster.
You want these resources to exist within security groups that allow communication and coordination. These can be user provided or created within the module.
You've created a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and subnets where you intend to put the EKS resources.
If using the default variable value (true) for configure_kubectl_session, it's required that both kubectl (>=1.10) and aws-iam-authenticator are installed and on your shell's PATH.

Usage example

A full example leveraging other community modules is contained in the examples/eks_test_fixture directory. Here's the gist of using it via the Terraform registry:

module "eks" {
  source                = "terraform-aws-modules/eks/aws"
  cluster_name          = "test-eks-cluster"
  subnets               = ["subnet-abcde012", "subnet-bcde012a"]
  tags                  = "${map("Environment", "test")}"
  vpc_id                = "vpc-abcde012"
}

Release schedule

Generally the maintainers will try to release the module once every 2 weeks to keep up with PR additions. If particularly pressing changes are added or maintainers come up with the spare time (hah!), release may happen more often on occasion.

Testing

This module has been packaged with awspec tests through kitchen and kitchen-terraform. To run them:

Install rvm and the ruby version specified in the Gemfile.
Install bundler and the gems from our Gemfile:
```
gem install bundler && bundle install
```
Ensure your AWS environment is configured (i.e. credentials and region) for test.
Test using bundle exec kitchen test from the root of the repo.

For now, connectivity to the kubernetes cluster is not tested but will be in the future. If configure_kubectl_session is set true, once the test fixture has converged, you can query the test cluster from that terminal session with kubectl get nodes --watch --kubeconfig kubeconfig.

Doc generation

Documentation should be modified within main.tf and generated using terraform-docs. Generate them like so:

go get github.com/segmentio/terraform-docs
terraform-docs md ./ | cat -s | tail -r | tail -n +2 | tail -r > README.md

Inputs

Name	Description	Type	Default	Required
cluster_name	Name of the EKS cluster. Also used as a prefix in names of related resources.	string	-	yes
cluster_security_group_id	If provided, the EKS cluster will be attached to this security group. If not given, a security group will be created with necessary ingres/egress to work with the workers and provide API access to your current IP/32.	string	``	no
cluster_version	Kubernetes version to use for the EKS cluster.	string	`1.10`	no
config_output_path	Determines where config files are placed if using configure_kubectl_session and you want config files to land outside the current working directory. Should end in a forward slash / .	string	`./`	no
create_elb_service_linked_role	Whether to create the service linked role for the elasticloadbalancing service. Without this EKS cannot create ELBs.	string	`false`	no
kubeconfig_aws_authenticator_additional_args	Any additional arguments to pass to the authenticator such as the role to assume. e.g. ["-r", "MyEksRole"].	list	`<list>`	no
kubeconfig_aws_authenticator_command	Command to use to to fetch AWS EKS credentials.	string	`aws-iam-authenticator`	no
kubeconfig_aws_authenticator_env_variables	Environment variables that should be used when executing the authenticator. e.g. { AWS_PROFILE = "eks"}.	map	`<map>`	no
kubeconfig_name	Override the default name used for items kubeconfig.	string	``	no
manage_aws_auth	Whether to write and apply the aws-auth configmap file.	string	`true`	no
map_accounts	Additional AWS account numbers to add to the aws-auth configmap. See examples/eks_test_fixture/variables.tf for example format.	list	`<list>`	no
map_roles	Additional IAM roles to add to the aws-auth configmap. See examples/eks_test_fixture/variables.tf for example format.	list	`<list>`	no
map_users	Additional IAM users to add to the aws-auth configmap. See examples/eks_test_fixture/variables.tf for example format.	list	`<list>`	no
subnets	A list of subnets to place the EKS cluster and workers within.	list	-	yes
tags	A map of tags to add to all resources.	map	`<map>`	no

worker_groups	A list of maps defining worker group configurations. See workers_group_defaults for valid keys.	list	`<list>`	no
worker_security_group_id	If provided, all workers will be attached to this security group. If not given, a security group will be created with necessary ingres/egress to work with the EKS cluster.	string	``	no
worker_sg_ingress_from_port	Minimum port number from which pods will accept communication. Must be changed to a lower value if some pods in your cluster will expose a port lower than 1025 (e.g. 22, 80, or 443).	string	`1025`	no
workers_group_defaults	Override default values for target groups. See workers_group_defaults_defaults in locals.tf for valid keys.	map	`<map>`	no
