This module handles opinionated Google Cloud Platform Kubernetes Engine cluster creation and configuration with Node Pools, IP MASQ, Network Policy, etc. The resources/services/activations/deletions that this module will create/trigger are:
- Create a GKE cluster with the provided addons
- Create GKE Node Pool(s) with provided configuration and attach to cluster
- Replace the default kube-dns configmap if
stub_domainsare provided - Activate network policy if
network_policyis true - Add
ip-masq-agentconfigmap with providednon_masquerade_cidrsifconfigure_ip_masqis true
Sub modules are provided from creating private clusters, beta private clusters, and beta public clusters as well. Beta sub modules allow for the use of various GKE beta features. See the modules directory for the various sub modules.
This module is meant for use with Terraform 0.12. If you haven't upgraded and need a Terraform 0.11.x-compatible version of this module, the last released version intended for Terraform 0.11.x is 3.0.0.

Before this module can be used on a project, you must ensure that the following pre-requisites are fulfilled:
- Terraform and kubectl are installed on the machine where Terraform is executed.
- The Service Account you execute the module with has the right permissions.
- The Compute Engine and Kubernetes Engine APIs are active on the project you will launch the cluster in.
- If you are using a Shared VPC, the APIs must also be activated on the Shared VPC host project and your service account needs the proper permissions there.
The project factory can be used to provision projects with the correct APIs active and the necessary Shared VPC connections.
- kubectl 1.9.x
- Terraform 0.12
- Terraform Provider for GCP v2.9
In order to execute this module you must have a Service Account with the following project roles:
- roles/compute.viewer
- roles/compute.securityAdmin (only required if
add_cluster_firewall_rulesis set totrue) - roles/container.clusterAdmin
- roles/container.developer
- roles/iam.serviceAccountAdmin
- roles/iam.serviceAccountUser
- roles/resourcemanager.projectIamAdmin (only required if
service_accountis set tocreate)
Additionally, if service_account is set to create and grant_registry_access is requested, the service account requires the following role on the registry_project_id project:
- roles/resourcemanager.projectIamAdmin
In order to operate with the Service Account you must activate the following APIs on the project where the Service Account was created:
- Compute Engine API - compute.googleapis.com
- Kubernetes Engine API - container.googleapis.com
