About

How many times do you need a container image with tools like terraform, helm, kubectl, aws cli, terragrunt... among many others? Aren't you tired of having to maintain all of them in each repository, instead of having one "general" one that can be used in multiple repos?

Versioning

Alpine core packages: https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages

AWS cli v2 is installed directly from official alpine repository. If you need to look for other version, visit this page

For every new version, a new git tag will be created. You can see versioning inside Dockerfile

Dynamically change terraform version

Tip

By default, a version of terraform is installed using tfenv. If you have the .terraform-version file in your terraform/terragrunt repository, tfenv should detect the version and install it automatically.

Or change it yourself, for example, within a pipeline:

tfenv use 1.5.5

Installing python libraries

You can install python libraries using `pip3`. BTW, you will see the following error:

Error:

× This environment is externally managed
╰─>
    The system-wide python installation should be maintained using the system
    package manager (apk) only.
If the package in question is not packaged already (and hence installable via
"apk add py3-somepackage"), please consider installing it inside a virtual
environment, e.g.:

python3 -m venv /path/to/venv
. /path/to/venv/bin/activate
pip install mypackage

To exit the virtual environment, run:

deactivate

The virtual environment is not deleted, and can be re-entered by re-sourcing
the activate file.

To automatically manage virtual environments, consider using pipx (from the
pipx package).

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.

Use pipx to install python packages/libraries

Install library + deps:

pipx install boto3 --include-deps

Install a package:

pipx install your-package-name # visit pypip

Use venv

python3 -m venv /path/to/venv
. /path/to/venv/bin/activate
pip3 install mypackage

Force installation

pip3 install boto3 --break-system-packages

Global gitconfig for internal git servers with self signed certificate

If using custom git repository with self signed certificate, just edit in your ~/.gitconfig:

[http "https://gitlab.server.internal"]
  ##################################
  # Self Signed Server Certificate #
  ##################################

  sslCAInfo = /path/to/your/certificate.crt
  #sslCAPath = /path/to/selfCA/
  sslVerify = true # or set to false if you trust

Image security scan with Trivy

This image uses trivy github action as a tool for security scanning.

Take a look to the official repo of Trivy.

Local trivy scan

Install trivy

make build-image
make trivy-scan # trivy image docker.io/containerscrew/infratools:test

Running locally

make local-build
make local-run
# Or all in one
make local-build-run

Use other version(tag) if needed (edit the Makefile).

Mapping volumes to the container

Example run.sh:

#!/bin/bash

CONTAINER_NAME="infratools"
CONTAINER_VERSION="v2.5.1"

if [ "$(docker ps | grep -c "${CONTAINER_NAME}")" -gt 0 ];then
    docker exec -ti ${CONTAINER_NAME} zsh
else
    docker run -tid \
        --name ${CONTAINER_NAME} \
        --rm \
        -h ${CONTAINER_NAME} \
        -v "$(pwd)"/:/code \
        -v ~/.ssh:/home/infratools/.ssh \
        -v ~/.aws:/home/infratools/.aws \
        -v ~/.kube:/home/infratools/.kube \
        -v ~/.zsh_history/:/home/infratools/.zsh_history \
        -w /code/ \
        -e AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=eu-west-1 \
        --dns 1.1.1.1 \
        docker.io/containerscrew/infratools:${CONTAINER_VERSION}
fi

docker exec -ti "${CONTAINER_NAME}" zsh

TODO

• Add other dynamic version switchers for other tools (tgswitch, kubectl...)
• Seperate pipeline for build release + build in other branch
