terraform

Getting Started

To get started you must find your IBM Cloud API username and API key. To find them log into control.softlayer.com, click on your profile and then scroll down to the API Access Information Section. The values you'll need are API Username and Authentication Key

Once you have your credentials you can use them with either environment variables by populating exports.sh or as hidden terraform variables by copying secrets.auto.tfvars.example in the reference_cluster folder to secrets.auto.tfvars.example.

Make a copy of the reference_cluster folder

If you wish to deploy multiple clusters It's best to just copy the whole folder

$ cp -r reference_cluster prefix_name_cluster 

Credentials with Environment variables

in ibmcloud_exports you'll want to replace the values for SL_USERNAME and SL_API_KEY with the credentials you found in your profile. Note BM_API_KEY is not currently used in this example, but would be necessary if bluemix services were added on.

# ibmcloud_exports
export BM_API_KEY="bm_api_key"
export SL_USERNAME="sl_username"
export SL_API_KEY="sl_api_key"

Credentials with Terraform variables

secrets.auto.tfvars will need to be created and populated for any deployment making it a very convenient place add your IBM Cloud credentials. To get started copy secrets.auto.tfvars.example to secrets.auto.tfvars if you haven't already and fill in the values for ibm_sl_username and ibm_sl_api_key.

ibm_bmx_api_key = ""
ibm_sl_username = ""
ibm_sl_api_key = ""
ssh_keys = []
private_key_path = "~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"
public_key_path = "~/.ssh/id_rsa"
domain = "mydomain.com"

Define environment specific variables

Copy secrets.auto.tfvars.example to secrets.auto.tfvars

To use this repo to deploy JanusGraph to IBM Cloud using terraform you must first setup API keys and get your username.

Once we deploy our infrastructure we're going to use ansible to setup Cassandra ,ElasticSearch, and JanusGraph
