This repo is part of a multi-part guide that shows how to configure and deploy the example.com reference architecture described in Google Cloud security foundations guide (PDF). The following table lists the parts of the guide.
0-bootstrap (this file) | Bootstraps a Google Cloud organization, creating all the required resources and permissions to start using the Cloud Foundation Toolkit (CFT). This step also configures a CI/CD pipeline for foundations code in subsequent stages. |
1-org | Sets up top level shared folders, monitoring and networking projects, and organization-level logging, and sets baseline security settings through organizational policy. |
2-environments | Sets up development, non-production, and production environments within the Google Cloud organization that you've created. |
3-networks | Sets up base and restricted shared VPCs with default DNS, NAT (optional), Private Service networking, VPC service controls, on-premises Dedicated Interconnect, and baseline firewall rules for each environment. Also sets up the global DNS hub. |
4-projects | Set up a folder structure, projects, and application infrastructure pipeline for applications, which are connected as service projects to the shared VPC created in the previous stage. |
5-app-infra | Deploy a simple Compute Engine instance in one of the business unit projects using the infra pipeline set up in 4-projects. |
For an overview of the architecture and the parts, see the terraform-example-foundation README file.
The purpose of this step is to bootstrap a Google Cloud organization, creating all the required resources & permissions to start using the Cloud Foundation Toolkit (CFT). This step also configures a CI/CD pipeline for foundations code in subsequent stages. The CI/CD pipeline can use either Cloud Build and Cloud Source Repos or Jenkins and your own Git repos (which might live on-premises).
To run the commands described in this document, you need to have the following installed:
- The Google Cloud SDK version 319.0.0 or later
- Terraform version 0.13.7.
- An existing project which the user has access to be used by terraform-validator.
Note: Make sure that you use the same version of Terraform throughout this series. Otherwise, you might experience Terraform state snapshot lock errors.
Also make sure that you've done the following:
- Set up a Google Cloud organization.
- Set up a Google Cloud billing account.
- Created Cloud Identity or Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) groups for organization and billing admins.
- Added the user who will use Terraform to the
group_org_admins
group. They must be in this group, or they won't haveroles/resourcemanager.projectCreator
access. - For the user who will run the procedures in this document, granted the
following roles:
- The
roles/resourcemanager.organizationAdmin
role on the Google Cloud organization. - The
roles/billing.admin
role on the billing account. - The
roles/resourcemanager.folderCreator
role.
- The
- Ensure that you have requested for sufficient projects quota, as the Terraform scripts will create multiple projects from this point onwards. For more information, please see the FAQ.
If other users need to be able to run these procedures, add them to the group
represented by the org_project_creators
variable.
For more information about the permissions that are required, and the resources
that are created, see the organization bootstrap module
documentation.
Please refer to troubleshooting if you run into issues during this step.
If you are using the jenkins_bootstrap
sub-module, see
README-Jenkins
for requirements and instructions on how to run the 0-bootstrap step. Using
Jenkins requires a few manual steps, including configuring connectivity with
your current Jenkins manager (master) environment.
- Go to the
0-bootstrap
folder. - Rename
terraform.example.tfvars
toterraform.tfvars
and update the file with values from your environment:mv terraform.example.tfvars terraform.tfvars
- Run
terraform init
. - Run
terraform plan
and review the output. - To run terraform-validator steps please follow the instructions in the Install Terraform Validator section and install version
v0.4.0
. You will also need to rename the binary fromterraform-validator-<your-platform>
toterraform-validator
and the terraform-validator binary must be in your PATH.- Run
terraform plan -input=false -out bootstrap.tfplan
- Run
terraform show -json bootstrap.tfplan > bootstrap.json
- Run
terraform-validator validate bootstrap.json --policy-path="../policy-library" --project <A-VALID-PROJECT-ID>
and check for violations (<A-VALID-PROJECT-ID>
must be an existing project you have access to, this is necessary because Terraform-validator needs to link resources to a valid Google Cloud Platform project).
- Run
- Run
terraform apply
. - Run
terraform output terraform_service_account
to get the email address of the admin. You need this address in a later procedure. - Run
terraform output gcs_bucket_tfstate
to get your Google Cloud bucket name from Terraform's state. - Copy the backend:
cp backend.tf.example backend.tf
- Update
backend.tf
with the name of your Cloud Storage bucket. - Re-run
terraform init
. When you're prompted, agree to copy state to Cloud Storage. - (Optional) Run
terraform apply
to verify that state is configured correctly. You should see no changes from the previous state.
Note 1: The output of terraform-validator will contain lines like
ERROR: logging before flag.Parse: I0413 13:49:49.852283 6380 convert.go:189] unsupported resource: google_billing_account_iam_member
or
ERROR: logging before flag.Parse: I0413 13:49:49.852290 6380 convert.go:183] unknown resource: random_id
These are warnings for resources that are not yet supported or not known by terraform-validator, these are not actual errors.
Note 2: After the deploy, even if you did not receive the project quota error described in the Troubleshooting guide, we recommend that you request 50 additional projects for the service account, terraform_service_account
, created in this step.
If you deploy using Cloud Build, the bucket information is replaced in the state
backends as a part of the build process when the build is executed by Cloud
Build. If you want to execute Terraform locally, you need to add your Cloud
Storage bucket to the backend.tf
files. You can update all of these files with
the following steps:
- Go to the
terraform-example-foundation
directory. - Run the following command:
where
for i in `find -name 'backend.tf'`; do sed -i 's/UPDATE_ME/GCS_BUCKET_NAME/' $i; done
GCS_BUCKET_NAME
is the name of your bucket from the steps you ran earlier.
