# 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-nginx" { source = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/bindplane" password = "secret" } module "vm-nginx-tls" { 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-nginx.cloud_config google-logging-enabled = true } boot_disk = { initialize_params = { image = "projects/cos-cloud/global/images/family/cos-stable" type = "pd-ssd" size = 10 } } tags = ["http-server", "ssh"] } # tftest modules=2 resources=2 ``` ## Variables | name | description | type | required | default | |---|---|:---:|:---:|:---:| | [password](variables.tf#L63) | Default admin user password. | string | ✓ | | | [bindplane_config](variables.tf#L17) | Bindplane configurations. | object({…}) | | {} | | [cloud_config](variables.tf#L29) | Cloud config template path.
