# Containerized CoreDNS on Container Optimized OS
This module manages a `cloud-config` configuration that starts a containerized [CoreDNS](https://coredns.io/) service on Container Optimized OS, using the [official image](https://hub.docker.com/r/coredns/coredns/).
The resulting `cloud-config` can be customized in a number of ways:
- a custom CoreDNS configuration can be set using the `coredns_config` variable
- additional files (eg for hosts or zone files) can be passed in via the `files` 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 iptables rules to allow traffic on the DNS TCP and UDP ports, and the 8080 port for the optional HTTP health check that can be enabled via the CoreDNS [health plugin](https://coredns.io/plugins/health/).
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 is 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. 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 CoreDNS configuration
This example will create a `cloud-config` that uses the module's defaults, creating a simple DNS forwarder.
```hcl
module "cos-coredns" {
source = "./modules/cloud-config-container/coredns"
}
# use it as metadata in a compute instance or template
resource "google_compute_instance" "default" {
metadata = {
user-data = module.cos-coredns.cloud_config
}
```
### Custom CoreDNS configuration
This example will create a `cloud-config` using a custom CoreDNS configuration, that leverages the [CoreDNS hosts plugin]() to serve a single zone via an included `hosts` format file.
```hcl
module "cos-coredns" {
source = "./modules/cloud-config-container/coredns"
coredns_config = "./modules/cloud-config-container/coredns/Corefile-hosts"
files = {
"/etc/coredns/example.hosts" = {
content = "127.0.0.2 foo.example.org foo"
owner = null
permissions = "0644"
}
}
```
### CoreDNS 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-coredns" {
source = "./modules/cloud-config-container/coredns"
test_instance = {
project_id = "my-project"
zone = "europe-west1-b"
name = "cos-coredns"
type = "f1-micro"
network = "default"
subnetwork = "https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/my-project/regions/europe-west1/subnetworks/my-subnet"
}
}
```
