# terraform-aws-eks
A terraform module to create a managed Kubernetes cluster on AWS EKS. Available
through the [Terraform registry](https://registry.terraform.io/modules/terraform-aws-modules/eks/aws).
Inspired by and adapted from [this doc](https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/aws/guides/eks-getting-started.html)
and its [source code](https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-aws/tree/master/examples/eks-getting-started).
Read the [AWS docs on EKS to get connected to the k8s dashboard](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/dashboard-tutorial.html).

## Assumptions
* You want to create an EKS cluster and an autoscaling group of workers for the cluster.
* You want these resources to exist within security groups that allow communication and coordination. These can be user provided or created within the module.
* You've created a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and subnets where you intend to put the EKS resources.
* If using the default variable value (`true`) for `configure_kubectl_session`, it's required that both [`kubectl`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/#install-kubectl) (>=1.10) and [`aws-iam-authenticator`](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-iam-authenticator#4-set-up-kubectl-to-use-authentication-tokens-provided-by-aws-iam-authenticator-for-kubernetes) are installed and on your shell's PATH.
## Usage example
A full example leveraging other community modules is contained in the [examples/eks_test_fixture directory](https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-eks/tree/master/examples/eks_test_fixture). Here's the gist of using it via the Terraform registry:
```hcl
module "eks" {
source = "terraform-aws-modules/eks/aws"
cluster_name = "test-eks-cluster"
subnets = ["subnet-abcde012", "subnet-bcde012a"]
tags = "${map("Environment", "test")}"
vpc_id = "vpc-abcde012"
}
```
## Release schedule
Generally the maintainers will try to release the module once every 2 weeks to
keep up with PR additions. If particularly pressing changes are added or maintainers
come up with the spare time (hah!), release may happen more often on occasion.
## Testing
This module has been packaged with [awspec](https://github.com/k1LoW/awspec) tests through [kitchen](https://kitchen.ci/) and [kitchen-terraform](https://newcontext-oss.github.io/kitchen-terraform/). To run them:
1. Install [rvm](https://rvm.io/rvm/install) and the ruby version specified in the [Gemfile](https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-eks/tree/master/Gemfile).
2. Install bundler and the gems from our Gemfile:
```bash
gem install bundler && bundle install
```
3. Ensure your AWS environment is configured (i.e. credentials and region) for test.
4. Test using `bundle exec kitchen test` from the root of the repo.
For now, connectivity to the kubernetes cluster is not tested but will be in the
future. If `configure_kubectl_session` is set `true`, once the test fixture has
converged, you can query the test cluster from that terminal session with
`kubectl get nodes --watch --kubeconfig kubeconfig`.
## Doc generation
Documentation should be modified within `main.tf` and generated using [terraform-docs](https://github.com/segmentio/terraform-docs).
Generate them like so:
```bash
go get github.com/segmentio/terraform-docs
terraform-docs md ./ | cat -s | ghead -n -1 > README.md
```
