KinD variant

This folder contains the variant to use when deploying locally using a KinD cluster and an S3 bucket deployed using the MinIO module of the DevOps Stack.

Usage

This module can be declared by adding the following block on your Terraform configuration:

module "thanos" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/camptocamp/devops-stack-module-thanos//kind?ref=<RELEASE>"

  cluster_name     = local.cluster_name
  base_domain      = local.base_domain
  cluster_issuer   = local.cluster_issuer
  argocd_namespace = module.argocd_bootstrap.argocd_namespace

  metrics_storage = {
    bucket_name = local.minio_config.buckets.1.name
    endpoint    = module.minio.endpoint
    access_key  = local.minio_config.users.1.accessKey
    secret_key  = local.minio_config.users.1.secretKey
  }

  thanos = {
    oidc = module.oidc.oidc
  }

  dependency_ids = {
    argocd       = module.argocd_bootstrap.id
    traefik      = module.traefik.id
    cert-manager = module.cert-manager.id
    minio        = module.minio.id
    keycloak     = module.keycloak.id
    oidc         = module.oidc.id
  }
}
You are in charge of creating an S3 bucket for Thanos to store the archived metrics. We’ve decided to keep the creation of this bucket outside of this module, mainly because the persistence of the data should not be related to the instantiation of the module itself.
Check the KinD deployment example to see how to create the S3 bucket using MinIO and to better understand the values passed on the example above.
Do not forget that the bucket configuration also needs to be passed to the module kube-prometheus-stack.

If there is a need to configure something besides the common settings that we have provided, you can customize the chart’s values.yaml by adding an Helm configuration as an HCL structure:

module "thanos" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/camptocamp/devops-stack-module-thanos//kind?ref=<RELEASE>"

  cluster_name     = local.cluster_name
  base_domain      = local.base_domain
  cluster_issuer   = local.cluster_issuer
  argocd_namespace = module.argocd_bootstrap.argocd_namespace

  metrics_storage = {
    bucket_name = local.minio_config.buckets.1.name
    endpoint    = module.minio.endpoint
    access_key  = local.minio_config.users.1.accessKey
    secret_key  = local.minio_config.users.1.secretKey
  }

  thanos = {
    oidc = module.oidc.oidc
  }

  helm_values = [{ # Note the curly brackets here
    thanos = {
      map = {
        string = "string"
        bool   = true
      }
      sequence = [
        {
          key1 = "value1"
          key2 = "value2"
        },
        {
          key1 = "value1"
          key2 = "value2"
        },
      ]
      sequence2 = [
        "string1",
        "string2"
      ]
    }
  }]

  dependency_ids = {
    argocd       = module.argocd_bootstrap.id
    traefik      = module.traefik.id
    cert-manager = module.cert-manager.id
    minio        = module.minio.id
    keycloak     = module.keycloak.id
    oidc         = module.oidc.id
  }
}

OIDC

This module was developed with OIDC in mind.

There is an OIDC proxy container deployed as a sidecar on each pod that has a web interface. Consequently, the thanos variable is expected to have a map oidc containing at least the Issuer URL, the Client ID, and the Client Secret.

You can pass these values by pointing an output from another module (as above), or by defining them explicitly:

module "thanos" {
  ...
  thanos = {
    oidc = {
      issuer_url    = "<URL>"
      client_id     = "<ID>"
      client_secret = "<SECRET>"
    }
  }
  ...
}

Resource Configuration

Since the resource requirements are not the same on every deployment and because the consumed resources also influence the cost associated, we refrained from configuring default resource requirements for the components of Thanos. We did, however, set memory limits for some of the pods (query, storegateway and compactor all have a 1 GB memory limit). These values should be customized as you see fit, although there is not really a need in a test deployment.

Technical Reference

Dependencies

module.argocd_bootstrap.id

Obviously, the module depends on an already running Argo CD in the cluster in order for the application to be created.

module.traefik.id and module.cert-manager.id

This module has multiple ingresses and consequently it must be deployed after the module traefik and cert-manager.

module.keycloak.id and module.oidc.id

When using Keycloak as an OIDC provider for the Longhorn Dashboard, you need to add Keycloak and the OIDC module as dependencies.

module.minio.id

This module requires a S3 bucket to store the metrics so it needs to be deployed after the module MinIO.

Requirements

The following requirements are needed by this module:

Default: true

Outputs

The following outputs are exported:
