My ongoing attempt at building and planning a kubernetes deployment

Kube Deploy build with ChatGPT

cywf

Hey there, I just started on a project called "kube-deploy", and could use your assistance if you would be so kind as to help me build this out. Below I will give further details on the project, please let me know if or when you need any clarification.

We are wanting to be able to deploy Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to a Kubernetes cluster. We are wanting to be able to deploy the following

Frameworks & Languages:

  • NGINX
  • Wazuh
  • Grafana
  • CasaOS
  • ZeroTier
  • Terraform
  • Kubernetes

We want to utilize ZeroTier to connect to the Kubernetes cluster, so will need a separte cluster that will host two zerotier moons, then we will have to block the outbound traffic from the cluster to ZeroTier's moon servers, to only be our own moons. Then we want to completely lock down the firewall, so to not be able to access it from the outside world. The services should only be accessible from the ZeroTier network, and its respective assigned zerotier IP address.

We would like to deploy a mock infrastructure, that will be able to be deployed to the cluster, and then we can use that to generate some data. We would like there to be:

  • 10x clients running:
    • 1x Wazuh agent
    • 1x ZeroTier client
  • 1x Wazuh server
  • 1x Domain Controller (CasaOS)

That is what we have so far. Starting with the repository structure, how should we go about this?

Here are a few next steps you might take:

  1. Add the configuration files for each component. For example, you can add an nginx.conf file to the "infra/nginx" directory, a wazuh.conf file to the "infra/wazuh" directory, etc.

  2. Add the Kubernetes manifests for each component. For example, you can add a deployment.yaml, service.yaml, configmap.yaml, and secrets.yaml file to each component directory.

  3. Add any additional scripts needed to automate the deployment process. For example, you can add a script to set up the ZeroTier network and block outbound traffic to the "scripts" directory.

  4. Add the terraform files, such as main.tf, variable.tf, and outputs.tf, to the "infra/terraform" directory

  5. Add the kubeconfig.yaml and any additional kubernetes resource yaml files to the "infra/kubernetes" directory

  6. Test your IaC by deploying your mock infrastructure to a test Kubernetes cluster.

  7. Once you are satisfied with your IaC and it is working as expected, you can then use it to deploy to your production Kubernetes cluster.

It's also important to keep the README file updated with the latest information about your project, like how to use it, what are the components, the versions, etc.

okay so i was able to get the terraform binary working, but got a bunch of errors when running my terraform init command. These were the errors:

how should i go about fixing this?
