Containerized Squid on Container Optimized OS

This module manages a cloud-config configuration that starts a containerized Squid proxy on Container Optimized OS. The default configuration creates a filtering proxy that only allows connection to a whitelisted set of domains.

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

• a custom squid.conf configuration can be set using the squid_config variable
• additional files (e.g. additional acls) 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 TCP port 3128. With the default squid.conf, deny rules take precedence over allow rules.

Logging and monitoring are enabled via the Google Cloud Logging agent configured for the instance via the google-logging-enabled metadata property, and the Node Problem Detector 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.

For convenience during development or for simple use cases, the module can optionally manage a single instance via the test_instance variable. If the instance is not needed the instance*tf files can be safely removed. Refer to the top-level README for more details on the included instance.

Examples

Default Squid configuration

This example will create a cloud-config that allows any client in the 10.0.0.0/8 CIDR to use the proxy to connect github.com or any subdomain of github.com.

module "cos-squid" {
  source  = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/__need_fixing/squid"
  allow   = [".github.com"]
  clients = ["10.0.0.0/8"]
}

module "vm" {
  source     = "./fabric/modules/compute-vm"
  project_id = "my-project"
  zone       = "europe-west8-b"
  name       = "cos-squid"
  network_interfaces = [{
    network    = "default"
    subnetwork = "gce"
  }]
  metadata = {
    user-data              = module.cos-squid.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"]
}
