Some learning and trials to leverage Terraform to manage GKE in GCP

Create service account in GCP for Terraform, download it in JSON format and place under gke/terraform-sa.json

Prepare plan to create k8s cluster

terraform plan -var-file=_private_vars.tfvars

Create k8s cluster using Terraform

terraform apply

After k8s cluster created there should be a namespace created as well along with Service Account jenkins. then we need to grant current GCP user with enough permissions to grant additional permissions to jenkins.

kubectl create clusterrolebinding $CURRENT_SERVICE_ACCOUNT-user-cluster-admin-binding --clusterrole=cluster-admin --user=$CURRENT_SERVICE_ACCOUNT

Create dedicated role for jenkins along with PodSecurityPolicy

kubectl -n ci-cd apply -f jenkins/role.yml

Obtain jenkins service account token for authentication from Jenkins master

kubectl -n ci-cd get secrets $(kc -n ci-cd get serviceaccount jenkins -o json | jq -Mr '.secrets[].name') -o json | jq -Mr '.data.token' | base64 -D
