terraform-azurerm-aci-devops-agent

This repository contains a Terraform module that helps you to deploy Azure DevOps self-hosted agents running on Azure Container Instance.

You can choose to deploy Linux or Windows agents, provide custom Docker images for the agents to include the tools you really need. It also give you the option to deploy the agents into a private virtual network, if the agents needs to access internal resources.

How-to use this module to deploy Azure DevOps agents

Build the Docker images

This module requires that you build your own Linux and/or Windows Docker images, to run the Azure DevOps agents. The docker contains Dockerfile and instructions for both.

Create an Azure DevOps agent pool and personal access token

Before running this module, you need to create an agent pool in your Azure DevOps organization and a personal access token that it authorized to manage this agent pool.

This module has 3 variables related to Azure DevOps:

azure_devops_org_name: the name of your Azure DevOps organization (if you are connecting to https://dev.azure.com/helloworld, then helloworld is your organization name)
azure_devops_personal_access_token: the personal access token that you have generated
agent_pool_name: both in the linux_agents_configuration and windows_agents_configuration, it is the name of the agent pool that you have created in which the Linux or Windows agents must be deployed

Terraform ACI DevOps Agents usage

Create or use an existing a resource group

This module offers to create a new resource group to deploy the Azure Container instances into it, or import an existing one. This behavior is controlled using the create_resource_group flag:

if create_resource_group is set to true, the module will create a resource group named resource_group_name in the location region
if create_resource_group is set to false, the module will import a resource group data source with the name resource_group_name

Terraform ACI DevOps Agents - Deploy Linux Agents

The configuration below can be used to deploy Linux DevOps agents using Azure Container Instances.

module "aci-devops-agent" {
  source                  = "Azure/aci-devops-agent/azurerm"
  version                 = "0.9.2"
  resource_group_name     = "rg-linux-devops-agents"
  location                = "westeurope"
  enable_vnet_integration = false
  create_resource_group   = true

  linux_agents_configuration = {
    agent_name_prefix = "linux-agent"
    agent_pool_name   = "DEVOPS_POOL_NAME"
    count             = 2,
    docker_image      = "jcorioland/aci-devops-agent"
    docker_tag        = "0.2-linux"
    cpu               = 1
    memory            = 4
    user_assigned_identity_ids   = []
    use_system_assigned_identity = false
  }
  azure_devops_org_name              = "DEVOPS_ORG_NAME"
  azure_devops_personal_access_token = "DEVOPS_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN"
}

Then, you can just Terraform it:

terraform init
terraform plan -out aci-linux-devops-agents.plan
terraform apply "aci-linux-devops-agents.plan"

You can destroy everything using terraform destroy:

Terraform ACI DevOps Agents - Assign identities

This module allows to assign both system and user assigned managed identities to the containers:

NB: managed identities for container groups have limitations. Only Linux container groups that are not deployed to a virtual network can be assigned managed identities. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-instances/container-instances-virtual-network-concepts#other-limitations and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-instances/container-instances-managed-identity for more details.

resource "azurerm_user_assigned_identity" "example1" {
  resource_group_name = "rg-terraform-azure-devops-agents-e2e-tests-${var.random_suffix}"
  location            = var.location

  name = "identity1"
}
resource "azurerm_user_assigned_identity" "example2" {
  resource_group_name = "rg-terraform-azure-devops-agents-e2e-tests-${var.random_suffix}"
  location            = var.location

  name = "identity2"
}
module "aci-devops-agent" {
  source                  = "Azure/aci-devops-agent/azurerm"
  version                 = "0.9.2"
  resource_group_name     = "rg-linux-devops-agents"
  location                = "westeurope"
  enable_vnet_integration = false
  create_resource_group   = true

  linux_agents_configuration = {
    agent_name_prefix = "linux-agent"
    agent_pool_name   = "DEVOPS_POOL_NAME"
    count             = 2,
    docker_image      = "jcorioland.azurecr.io/azure-devops/aci-devops-agent"
    docker_tag        = "0.2-linux"
    cpu               = 1
    memory            = 4
    user_assigned_identity_ids = [azurerm_user_assigned_identity.example1.id, data.azurerm_identity.example2.id]
    use_system_assigned_identity = true
  }
  azure_devops_org_name              = "DEVOPS_ORG_NAME"
  azure_devops_personal_access_token = "DEVOPS_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN"
}

Then, you can just Terraform it:

terraform init
terraform plan -out aci-linux-devops-agents.plan
terraform apply "aci-linux-devops-agents.plan"

You can destroy everything using terraform destroy:

Test

Configurations

Configure Terraform for Azure

We provide 2 ways to build, run, and test the module on a local development machine. Native (Mac/Linux) or Docker.

Native (Mac/Linux)

Prerequisites

Environment setup

We provide simple script to quickly set up module development environment:

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Azure/terramodtest/master/tool/env_setup.sh | sudo bash

Run test

Then simply run it in local shell:

bundle install
rake build
rake full

Docker

We provide a Dockerfile to build a new image based FROM the microsoft/terraform-test Docker hub image which adds additional tools / packages specific for this module (see Custom Image section). Alternatively use only the microsoft/terraform-test Docker hub image by using these instructions.

Prerequisites

Docker

Custom Image

This builds the custom image:

docker build \
    --build-arg BUILD_ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=$ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID \
    --build-arg BUILD_ARM_CLIENT_ID=$ARM_CLIENT_ID \
    --build-arg BUILD_ARM_CLIENT_SECRET=$ARM_CLIENT_SECRET \
    --build-arg BUILD_ARM_TENANT_ID=$ARM_TENANT_ID \
    -t azure-devops-agent-aci-test .

NB: cf az ad sp create-for-rbac --help to get build-arg values

This runs the build and unit tests:

docker run --rm \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_org_name=$AZDO_ORG_NAME \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_personal_access_token=$AZDO_PAT \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_pool_name=$AZDO_POOL_NAME \
    azure-devops-agent-aci-test /bin/bash -c "bundle install && rake build"

This runs the end to end tests:

docker run --rm \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_org_name=$AZDO_ORG_NAME \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_personal_access_token=$AZDO_PAT \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_pool_name=$AZDO_POOL_NAME \
    azure-devops-agent-aci-test /bin/bash -c "bundle install && rake e2e"

This runs the full tests:

docker run --rm \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_org_name=$AZDO_ORG_NAME \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_personal_access_token=$AZDO_PAT \
    -e TF_VAR_azure_devops_pool_name=$AZDO_POOL_NAME \
    azure-devops-agent-aci-test /bin/bash -c "bundle install && rake full"

With:

AZDO_ORG_NAME being the name of the Azure DevOps organization
AZDO_PAT being the personal access token to connect to Azure DevOps
AZDO_POOL_NAME being the name of the Azure DevOps agent pool
