# Containerized Bindplane on Container Optimized OS

This module manages a `cloud-config` configuration that starts a containerized [Bindplane](https://observiq.com/solutions) service on Container Optimized OS, using the official [Bindplane EE image](https://hub.docker.com/r/observiq/bindplane-ee) provided by observIQ and documented in the [official documentation page](https://observiq.com/download) when selecting "Docker" as target platform.

The resulting `cloud-config` can be customized in a number of ways:

- a custom Bindplane configuration can be set in Docker compose file available in `/run/bindplane/docker-compose.yml` using the `bindplane_config` variable
- additional files can be passed in via the `files` variable
- a completely custom `cloud-config` can be passed in via the `cloud_config` variable, and additional template variables can be passed in via `config_variables`

The default instance configuration inserts iptables rules to allow traffic on port 3001.

Logging and monitoring are enabled via the [Google Cloud Logging agent](https://cloud.google.com/container-optimized-os/docs/how-to/logging) configured for the instance via the `google-logging-enabled` metadata property, and the [Node Problem Detector](https://cloud.google.com/container-optimized-os/docs/how-to/monitoring) service started by default on boot.

The module renders the generated cloud config in the `cloud_config` output, to be used in instances or instance templates via the `user-data` metadata.

## Setup

Please refer to the examples below for a sample terraform code for deploying a Bindplane server on GCP Compute VM with COS. After setting up the terraform code run the following commands:

```bash
terraform init
terraform apply
```

Wait for a couple of minutes for the VM to be bootstrapped then connect via IAP tunnel using the following command (substitute the VM name, project and zone according to your configuration):

```bash
gcloud compute ssh $VM_NAME --project $PROJECT --zone $ZONE -- -L 3001:127.0.0.1:3001 -N -q -f
```

Navigate to http://localhost:3001 to access the Bindplane console, the following login page should be displayed.

## Examples

### Default configuration

This example will create a `cloud-config` that uses the module's defaults, creating a simple bindplane server with default (latest) docker image versions and setting localhost as remote url (suited only for local development).

```hcl
module "cos-bindplane" {
  source            = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/bindplane"
  bindplane_license = "XXXXXXXXX"
  password          = "secret"
}

module "bindplane" {
  source     = "./fabric/modules/compute-vm"
  project_id = "my-project"
  zone       = "europe-west8-b"
  name       = "cos-nginx"
  network_interfaces = [{
    network    = "default"
    subnetwork = "gce"
  }]
  metadata = {
    user-data              = module.cos-bindplane.cloud_config
    google-logging-enabled = true
  }
  boot_disk = {
    source = {
      image = "projects/cos-cloud/global/images/family/cos-stable"
    }
    initialize_params = {
      type = "pd-ssd"
      size = 10
    }
  }
  tags = ["http-server", "ssh"]
}
