cluster-aws

cluster-aws is an app that helps create a CRs for a Cluster API AWS cluster for Giant Swarm platform.

Custom Subnet Layouts

As of v0.21.0 it possible to specify more complex subnet layouts that allow using different sets of subnets for different grouping of machines.

Subnet groupings can be defined by setting .connectivity.subnets. For example, to have different subnets for control plane, worker and bastion nodes you might have something similar to the following:

connectivity:
  availabilityZoneUsageLimit: 3
  network:
    vpcCidr: 10.0.0.0/16
  subnets:
  # Control plane nodes subnets
  - id: control-plane-nodes
    cidrBlocks:
    - cidr: 10.0.32.0/19
      availabilityZone: a
    - cidr: 10.0.64.0/19
      availabilityZone: b
    - cidr: 10.0.96.0/19
      availabilityZone: c
    isPublic: false
    tags:
      subnet.giantswarm.io/role: control-plane
  # Worker nodes subnets
  - id: worker-nodes
    cidrBlocks:
    - cidr: 10.0.128.0/19
      availabilityZone: a
    - cidr: 10.0.160.0/19
      availabilityZone: b
    - cidr: 10.0.192.0/19
      availabilityZone: c
    isPublic: false
    tags:
      subnet.giantswarm.io/role: workers
  # Bastion nodes subnets
  - id: bastion-nodes
    cidrBlocks:
    - cidr: 10.0.0.0/24
      availabilityZone: a
    - cidr: 10.0.1.0/24
      availabilityZone: b
    - cidr: 10.0.2.0/24
      availabilityZone: c
    isPublic: true
    tags:
      subnet.giantswarm.io/role: bastion
  # Ingress load balancer subnets
  - id: load-balancer
    cidrBlocks:
    - cidr: 10.0.3.0/24
      availabilityZone: a
      tags:
        Name: cluster-ingress-lb-a
    - cidr: 10.0.4.0/24
      availabilityZone: b
      tags:
        Name: cluster-ingress-lb-b
    - cidr: 10.0.5.0/24
      availabilityZone: c
      tags:
        Name: cluster-ingress-lb-c
    isPublic: true
    tags:
      subnet.giantswarm.io/role: ingress

The desired subnet can then be targetted by using the subnetTags value to set the AWS tags to match on. For example:

global:
  connectivity:
    bastion:
      subnetTags:
        - subnet.giantswarm.io/role: bastion

  controlPlane:
    subnetTags:
      - subnet.giantswarm.io/role: control-plane

  nodePools:
    def00:
      subnetTags:
        - subnet.giantswarm.io/role: workers

API-server ELB subnets

Currently it's not possible to target the subnets used for the api-server ELB using the subnetTags approach like other resources. The ELB will be associated with the first grouping of subnets defined in the network.subnets list.

If you want the ELB to use its own subnets then you can add a new grouping first in the list specifically for the api-server ELB.

VPC Endpoints subnets

You can have VPC Endpoints target specific subnets by using the subnet.giantswarm.io/endpoints: "true" on those subnets. E.g.

# VPC endpoints
- cidrBlocks:
  - cidr: 10.233.19.0/24
    availabilityZone: a
  - cidr: 10.233.20.0/24
    availabilityZone: b
  - cidr: 10.233.21.0/24
    availabilityZone: c
  isPublic: true
  tags:
    subnet.giantswarm.io/role: attachments
    subnet.giantswarm.io/endpoints: "true"

If the subnet.giantswarm.io/endpoints: "true" tag isn't found on any subnets then it will default to using the first grouping of subnets.

Transit Gateway Attachment subnets

Warning Currently not possible, see giantswarm/roadmap#1865

You can have Transit Gateway Attachments target specific subnets by using the subnet.giantswarm.io/tgw-attachments: "true" on those subnets. E.g.

# TGW attachments
- cidrBlocks:
  - cidr: 10.233.19.0/24
    availabilityZone: a
  - cidr: 10.233.20.0/24
    availabilityZone: b
  - cidr: 10.233.21.0/24
    availabilityZone: c
  isPublic: true
  tags:
    subnet.giantswarm.io/role: attachments
    subnet.giantswarm.io/tgw-attachments: "true"

If the subnet.giantswarm.io/tgw-attachments: "true" tag isn't found on any subnets then it will default to using the first grouping of subnets.

Ingress subnets

Warning Currently not possible, see giantswarm/roadmap#1866

Maintaining values.schema.json and values.yaml

tldr: We only maintain values.schema.json and automatically generate values.yaml from it.

make normalize-schema
make validate-schema
make generate-values
make generate-docs

Details:

In order to provide a better UX we validate user values against values.schema.json. In addition we also use the JSON schema in our frontend to dynamically generate a UI for cluster creation from it. To succesfully do this, we have some requirements on the values.schema.json, which are defined in this RFC. These requirements can be checked with schemalint. schemalint does a couple of things:

  • Normalize JSON schema (indentation, white space, sorting)
  • Validate whether your schema is valid JSON schema
  • Validate whether the requirements for cluster app schemas are met
  • Check whether schema is normalized

The first point can be achieved with:

make normalize-schema

The second to fourth point can be achieved with:

make validate-schema

The JSON schema in values.schema.json should contain defaults defined with the default keyword. These defaults should be same as those defined in values.yaml. This allows us to generate values.yaml from values.schema.json with:

make generate-values
