terra-aws-core-kube

Description

This repository is an example configuration of using Terraform to bootstrap a Kubernetes Cluster on top of CoreOS using AWS-EC2 instances. Contributions are more than welcome.

Setup-Instructions

Custom settings

• Rename _variables-aws-custom.tf.sample to _variables-aws-custom.tf and put in your own settings.

Get kubectl

curl -O https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.6.3/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl

SSH-Key

Put your ssh-key into the ssh/ folder. Make sure it named like the key stored in AWS and ends with .pem.

Deploy

• Run terraform plan.
• Run terraform apply.
• Wait a little while for the Cluster to spin up.
• When kubectl get nodes returns all your nodes, the cluster is ready for further configuration (like setting up DNS pods).

Use

Now you can use the Terraform output to ssh into your instances and use your local kubectl to interact with the Kubernetes-API.
