Entigo Infralib Agent

Entigo infralib agent prepares an AWS Account or Google Cloud Project for Entigo infralib terraform modules. Creates the required resources for S3/storage, DynamoDB, CloudWatch, CodeBuild/Cloud Run Jobs, CodePipeline/Delivery Pipeline, and IAM roles and policies. Executes pipelines which apply the specified Entigo infralib terraform modules. During subsequent runs, the agent will update the modules to the latest version and apply any config changes.

Compiling Source

go build -o bin/ei-agent main.go

Requirements

AWS Service Account with administrator access, credentials provided by AWS or environment variables.

or

Google Cloud Service Account with owner access, credentials provided by GCP or gcloud cli tool.

Docker

Prebuilt Docker image is available from

Docker Hub entigolabs/entigo-infralib-agent

or

Amazon ECR Gallery public.ecr.aws/entigolabs/entigo-infralib-agent

Building a local Docker image

docker build -t entigolabs/entigo-infralib-agent .

Running the Docker image

By default, the docker image executes the Run command. Config.yaml needs to be mounted into the container. This is required only for the first run or when overriding an existing config.

docker run --pull always -it --rm -v "$(pwd)/config.yaml":"/etc/ei-agent/config.yaml" -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY -e AWS_REGION=$AWS_REGION -e AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=$AWS_SESSION_TOKEN -e CONFIG=/etc/ei-agent/config.yaml entigolabs/entigo-infralib-agent

To execute the bootstrap, override the default command.

docker run --pull always -it --rm -v "$(pwd)/config.yaml":"/etc/ei-agent/config.yaml" -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY -e AWS_REGION=$AWS_REGION -e AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=$AWS_SESSION_TOKEN -e CONFIG=/etc/ei-agent/config.yaml entigolabs/entigo-infralib-agent ei-agent bootstrap

Commands

For bootstrap, run and update commands you must either provide a config file or a prefix value. This is required for creating and finding AWS resources. Bootstrap adds that value as an environment variable for the agent pipeline.

bootstrap

Creates the required AWS resources and a codepipeline for executing the agent. If the pipeline already exists, the agent image version will be updated if needed and a new execution of the run command will be started.

OPTIONS:

• logging - logging level (debug | info | warn | error) (default: info) [$LOGGING]
• config - config file path and name, only needed for first run or when overriding an existing config [$CONFIG]
• prefix - prefix used when creating cloud resources (default: config prefix) [$PREFIX]
• project-id - project id used when creating gcloud resources [$PROJECT_ID]
• location - location used when creating gcloud resources [$LOCATION]
• zone - zone used in gcloud run jobs [$ZONE]
• role-arn - role arn for assume role, used when creating aws resources in external account [$ROLE_ARN]

Example

bin/ei-agent bootstrap --config=config.yaml --prefix=infralib

run

Processes config steps, creates and executes CodePipelines which apply Entigo Infralib terraform modules. Run command only executes a single cycle of the pipeline. Can be used to apply config changes.

OPTIONS:

• logging - logging level (debug | info | warn | error) (default: info) [$LOGGING]
• config - config file path and name, only needed for first run or when overriding an existing config [$CONFIG]
• prefix - prefix used when creating cloud resources (default: config prefix) [$PREFIX]
• project-id - project id used when creating gcloud resources [$PROJECT_ID]

• zone - zone used in gcloud run jobs [$ZONE]
• role-arn - role arn for assume role, used when creating aws resources in external account [$ROLE_ARN]
• github-token - optional GitHub token for querying releases as unauthenticated rate limit is low [$GITHUB_TOKEN]
• allow-parallel - allow running steps in parallel on first execution cycle (default: true) [$ALLOW_PARALLEL]

Example

bin/ei-agent run --config=config.yaml --prefix=infralib

update

Processes config steps, creates and executes CodePipelines which apply Entigo Infralib terraform modules. Update command updates all modules to the latest or specified versions. Returns if there are no updates available.

OPTIONS:

delete

Processes config steps, removes resources used by the agent, including buckets, pipelines, and roles/service accounts. Warning! Execute destroy pipelines in reverse config order before running this command. This command will remove all pipelines and resources created by terraform will otherwise remain.

OPTIONS:

Overriding config values

Step, module and input field values can be overwritten by using replacement tags {{ }}.

Replacement tags can be overwritten by values that are stored in the AWS SSM Parameter Store ssm and Google Cloud Secret Manager gcsm, config itself or custom agent logic. It's also possible to use the keyword output instead to let agent choose the correct service for getting the value. There's also a special type based keyword toutput that uses an output from the specified type of step.

For example, {{ .ssm.stepName.moduleName.key-1/key-2 }} will be overwritten by the value of the SSM Parameter Store parameter /entigo-infralib/config.prefix-stepName-moduleName-parentStep/key-1/key-2. If the parameter type is StringList then it's possible to use an index to get a specific value, e.g {{ .ssm.stepName.moduleName.key-1/key-2[0] }} or a slice by using a range, e.g [0-1].

It's possible to build a custom array by using yaml multiline string, even mixing replaced values with inputted values. For example creating a list of strings for terraform:

inputs:
  key-1: |
    ["{{ .ssm.stepName.moduleName.key-1 }}", "value-1", "value-2"]

Custom SSM parameter example {{ .ssm-custom.key }} will be overwritten by the value of the custom SSM parameter key. For custom GCloud SM, replace the ssm with gcsm.

Config example {{ .config.prefix }} will be overwritten by the value of the config field prefix. Config replacement does not support indexed paths.

Agent example {{ .agent.version.step.module }} will be overwritten by the value of the specified module version that's currently being applied or a set version, e.g v0.8.4. Agent replacement also supports account id using key accountId.

Infralib modules may use {{ .tmodule.type }} in their default input files to replace it with the name of the module used in the config.

Including terraform files in steps

It's possible to include terraform files in steps by adding the files into a ./config/<stepName>/include subdirectory. File names can't include main.tf, provider.tf or backend.conf as they are reserved for the agent. Files will be copied into the step directory which is used by terraform as step context.
