Manages a CoreOS Ignition file to supply to a domain

libvirt_ignition

Manages a CoreOS Ignition file written as a volume to a libvirt storage pool that can be used to customize a CoreOS Domain during first boot.

~> Note: to make use of Ignition files with CoreOS the host must be running QEMU v2.6 or greater.

~> Note: On the i686 (x86), x86_64 (AMD64), and aarch64 (ARM64) platforms, the QEMU firmware config device (-fw_cfg) is used to pass Ignition configs into the guests. On the s390x (IBM Z) and PowerPC platforms however, the QEMU firmware config device is not supported. As an alternative, a virtio-blk device is created with a serial of ignition which ignition recognizes and reads the config from the device

Example Usage

resource "libvirt_ignition" "ignition" {
  name = "example.ign"
  content = <file-name or ignition object>
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

  • name - (Required) A unique name for the resource, required by libvirt.
  • pool - (Optional) The pool where the resource will be created. If not given, the default pool will be used.
  • content - (Required) This points to the source of the Ignition configuration information that will be used to create the Ignition file in the libvirt storage pool. The content can be
    • The name of file that contains Ignition configuration data, or its contents
    • A rendered terraform Ignition object

Any change of the above fields will cause a new resource to be created.

Integration with Ignition provider

The libvirt_ignition resource can be integrated with terraform Ignition Provider.

An example where a terraform ignition provider object is used:

# Systemd unit data source containing the unit definition
data "ignition_systemd_unit" "example" {
  name = "example.service"
  content = "[Service]\nType=oneshot\nExecStart=/usr/bin/echo Hello World\n\n[Install]\nWantedBy=multi-user.target"
}

# Ignition config include the previous defined systemd unit data source
data "ignition_config" "example" {
  systemd = [
      "data.ignition_systemd_unit.example.rendered",
  ]
}

resource "libvirt_ignition" "ignition" {
  name = "ignition"
  content = data.ignition_config.example.rendered
}

resource "libvirt_domain" "my_machine" {
  coreos_ignition = libvirt_ignition.ignition.id
  ...
}
