suseforma

generic framework inspired from sumaform https://github.com/moio/sumaform Suseforma is a simplified generic sumaform version. (salt + terraform (libvirt-plugin), and should help you to learn create a template for your project

https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt

Install prereq:

https://github.com/moio/sumaform/#installation

Run the example:

• modify the prefiy in main.tf.example with a unique value string of your choice:https://github.com/MalloZup/suseforma/blob/master/main.tf.example#L11
• make sure you have libvirt running and the network you use on main.tf exists

vi main.tf.example
cp main.tf.example main.tf
terraform get
terraform apply

How to use suseforma:

Baiscally, terraform create disks and networks etc (main.tf file) Salt run after matching the roles (grains), and execute the states assigned.

roles

On the top.sls file https://github.com/MalloZup/suseforma/blob/master/salt/top.sls

creating new role Example: frankzappa:

• 1 we define the role on main https://github.com/MalloZup/suseforma/blob/master/main.tf.example#L28
• 2 we create role defintion on grain https://github.com/MalloZup/suseforma/blob/master/salt/top.sls
• 3 we create the dir on salt and put init.sls with some operation salt.

The control-node, has the grain definiton "hidden" in terraform https://github.com/MalloZup/suseforma/blob/master/modules/libvirt/control_node/main.tf#L8

Suseforma is basically terraform, libvirtd (https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt) with salt. This is for learning purpose.

The control-node machine, is a concept to orchestrate machines, in complex scenario. In spacewalk-testsuite(https://github.com/SUSE/spacewalk-testsuite-base), we run cucumber code inside the control-node that orchestrate the multiples-machines.
