Containerized Nginx on Container Optimized OS

This module manages a cloud-config configuration that starts a containerized Nginx service on Container Optimized OS, using the hello demo image.

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

• a custom Nginx configuration can be set in /etc/nginx/conf.d using the nginx_config variable
• additional files (eg for hosts or zone 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 80.

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 configuration

This example will create a cloud-config that uses the module's defaults, creating a simple hello web server showing host name and request id.

module "cos-nginx" {
  source = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/nginx"
}

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"]
}
