# Containerized MySQL on Container Optimized OS This module manages a `cloud-config` configuration that starts a containerized [MySQL](https://www.mysql.com/) service on Container Optimized OS, using the [official image](https://hub.docker.com/_/mysql). The resulting `cloud-config` can be customized in a number of ways: - a custom MySQL configuration can be set using the `mysql_config` variable - the container image can be changed via the `image` variable - a data disk can be specified via the `mysql_data_disk` variable, the configuration will optionally format and mount it for container use - a KMS encrypted root password can be passed to the container image, and decrypted at runtime on the instance using the attributes in the `kms_config` variable - a completely custom `cloud-config` can be passed in via the `cloud_config` variable, and additional template variables can be passed in via `config_variables` The default instance configuration inserts a sngle iptables rule to allow traffic on the default MySQL port. Logging and monitoring are enabled via the [Google Cloud Logging driver](https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/logging/gcplogs/) configured for the CoreDNS container, and the [Node Problem Detector](https://cloud.google.com/container-optimized-os/docs/how-to/monitoring) service started by default on boot. The module renders the generated cloud config in the `cloud_config` output, to be used in instances or instance templates via the `user-data` metadata. For convenience during development or for simple use cases, the module can optionally manage a single instance via the `test_instance` variable. Please note that an `f1-micro` instance is too small to run MySQL. If the instance is not needed the `instance*tf` files can be safely removed. Refer to the [top-level README](../README.md) for more details on the included instance. ## Examples ### Default MySQL configuration This example will create a `cloud-config` that uses the container's default configuration, and a plaintext password for the MySQL root user. ```hcl module "cos-mysql" { source = "./modules/cos-container/mysql" mysql_password = "foo" } # use it as metadata in a compute instance or template resource "google_compute_instance" "default" { metadata = { user-data = module.cos-mysql.cloud_config } ``` ### Custom MySQL configuration and KMS encrypted password This example will create a `cloud-config` that uses a custom MySQL configuration, and passes in an encrypted password and the KMS attributes required to decrypt it. Please note that the instance service account needs the `roles/cloudkms.cryptoKeyDecrypter` on the specified KMS key. ```hcl module "cos-mysql" { source = "./modules/cos-container/mysql" mysql_config = "./my.cnf" mysql_password = "CiQAsd7WY==" kms_config = { project_id = "my-project" keyring = "test-cos" location = "europe-west1" key = "mysql" } } ``` ### MySQL instance This example shows how to create the single instance optionally managed by the module, providing all required attributes in the `test_instance` variable. The instance is purposefully kept simple and should only be used in development, or when designing infrastructures. ```hcl module "cos-mysql" { source = "./modules/cos-container/mysql" mysql_password = "foo" test_instance = { project_id = "my-project" zone = "europe-west1-b" name = "cos-mysql" type = "n1-standard-1" network = "default" subnetwork = "https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/my-project/regions/europe-west1/subnetworks/my-subnet" } } ``` ## Variables | name | description | type | required | default | |---|---|:---:|:---:|:---:| | [mysql_password](variables.tf#L64) | MySQL root password. If an encrypted password is set, use the kms_config variable to specify KMS configuration. | string | ✓ | | | [cloud_config](variables.tf#L17) | Cloud config template path. If null default will be used. | string | | null | | [config_variables](variables.tf#L23) | Additional variables used to render the cloud-config template. | map(any) | | {} | | [docker_logging](variables.tf#L29) | Log via the Docker gcplogs driver. Disable if you use the legacy Logging Agent instead. | bool | | true | | [image](variables.tf#L35) | MySQL container image. | string | | "mysql:5.7" | | [kms_config](variables.tf#L41) | Optional KMS configuration to decrypt passed-in password. Leave null if a plaintext password is used. | object({…}) | | null | | [mysql_config](variables.tf#L52) | MySQL configuration file content, if null container default will be used. | string | | null | | [mysql_data_disk](variables.tf#L58) | MySQL data disk name in /dev/disk/by-id/ including the google- prefix. If null the boot disk will be used for data. | string | | null | | [test_instance](variables-instance.tf#L17) | Test/development instance attributes, leave null to skip creation. | object({…}) | | null | | [test_instance_defaults](variables-instance.tf#L30) | Test/development instance defaults used for optional configuration. If image is null, COS stable will be used. | object({…}) | | {…} | ## Outputs | name | description | sensitive | |---|---|:---:| | [cloud_config](outputs.tf#L17) | Rendered cloud-config file to be passed as user-data instance metadata. | | | [test_instance](outputs-instance.tf#L17) | Optional test instance name and address. | |
