A Pulumi program to stand up a Talos Linux cluster on AWS
APACHE-2.0 License
NOTE: The code in this repository is currently non-functional due to an issue with all released versions of the Pulumi provider for Talos Linux.
This repository contains a Pulumi program, written in Golang, to automate the process of standing up a Talos Linux cluster on AWS.
Before using the contents of this repository, you will need to ensure:
Clone this repository into a directory on your local computer.
Change into the directory where you cloned this repository.
Run pulumi stack init
to create a new Pulumi stack.
Use pulumi config set aws:region <region>
to set the desired AWS region in which to create the cluster.
Use pulumi config set
to set the correct AMI ID for a Talos Linux instance in the desired AWS region. Information on determining the correct AMI ID can be found here in the Talos Linux documentation.
Run pulumi up
to run the Pulumi program.
After the Pulumi program finishes running, you can obtain a configuration file for talosctl
using this command:
pulumi stack output talosctlCfg --show-secrets > talosconfig
You can then run this command to watch the cluster bootstrap:
talosctl --talosconfig talosconfig health
Once the cluster has finished boostrapping, you can retrieve the Kubeconfig necessary to access the cluster with this command:
talosctl --talosconfig talosconfig kubeconfig
You can then use kubectl
to access the cluster as normal, referencing the recently-retrieved Kubeconfig as necessary.
