Create Pods using Rancher with Terraform - kubernetes

Question

I created this simple Terraform script with Rancher to create namespace in imported Kubernetes cluster:
terraform {
required_providers {
rancher2 = {
source = "rancher/rancher2"
version = "1.24.1"
}
}
}
provider "rancher2" {
api_url = "https://192.168.1.128/v3"
token_key = "token-n4fxx:4qcgctvph7qh2sdnn762zpzg889rgw8xpd2nvcnpnr4v4wpb9zljtd"
insecure = true
}
resource "rancher2_namespace" "zone-1" {
name = "zone-1"
project_id = "c-m-xmhbjzdt:p-sd86v"
description = "zone-1 namespace"
resource_quota {
limit {
limits_cpu = "100m"
limits_memory = "100Mi"
requests_storage = "1Gi"
}
}
container_resource_limit {
limits_cpu = "20m"
limits_memory = "20Mi"
requests_cpu = "1m"
requests_memory = "1Mi"
}
}
The question is how I can create Pods into the Kubernetes cluster using again Terraform script?

Answer 1

Terraform offers the Kubernetes Provider which allows you to create all kind of Kubernetes objects.
To quote the documentation of the "kubernetes_pod"-resource:
resource "kubernetes_pod" "test" {
metadata {
name = "terraform-example"
}
spec {
container {
image = "nginx:1.21.6"
name = "example"
env {
name = "environment"
value = "test"
}
port {
container_port = 80
}
liveness_probe {
http_get {
path = "/"
port = 80
http_header {
name = "X-Custom-Header"
value = "Awesome"
}
}
initial_delay_seconds = 3
period_seconds = 3
}
}
dns_config {
nameservers = ["1.1.1.1", "8.8.8.8", "9.9.9.9"]
searches = ["example.com"]
option {
name = "ndots"
value = 1
}
option {
name = "use-vc"
}
}
dns_policy = "None"
}
}
