devops-stack-module-longhorn

A DevOps Stack module to deploy and configure Longhorn.

The Longhorn chart used by this module is shipped in this repository as well, in order to avoid any unwanted behaviors caused by unsupported versions.

Current Chart Version Original Repository Default Values

1.7.0

Chart

values.yaml

Important
For the moment, this module only supports the deployment of Longhorn in SKS clusters.

Usage

A simple declaration of the module would look like this:

module "longhorn" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/camptocamp/devops-stack-module-longhorn.git?ref=<RELEASE>"

  cluster_name     = module.sks.cluster_name
  base_domain      = module.sks.base_domain
  cluster_issuer   = local.cluster_issuer
  argocd_namespace = module.argocd_bootstrap.argocd_namespace

  dependency_ids = {
    argocd = module.argocd_bootstrap.id
  }
}

You can enable the ingress to the Longhorn Dashboard. In that case, you will need to enable the respective flag and pass along the required OIDC configuration:

module "longhorn" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/camptocamp/devops-stack-module-longhorn.git?ref=<RELEASE>"

  cluster_name     = module.sks.cluster_name
  base_domain      = module.sks.base_domain
  cluster_issuer   = local.cluster_issuer
  argocd_namespace = module.argocd_bootstrap.argocd_namespace

  enable_dashboard_ingress = true
  oidc                     = module.oidc.oidc

  dependency_ids = {
    argocd = module.argocd_bootstrap.id
    traefik      = module.traefik.id
    cert-manager = module.cert-manager.id
    keycloak     = module.keycloak.id
    oidc         = module.oidc.id
  }
Note
The previous example uses Keycloak as an OIDC provider, but you can use any other you want.

In case you want to backup the content of the persistent volumes, you have the possibility of enabling the backup feature. In that case, you will need to enable the respective flag and pass along the require S3 configuration:

module "longhorn" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/camptocamp/devops-stack-module-longhorn.git?ref=<RELEASE>"

  cluster_name     = module.sks.cluster_name
  base_domain      = module.sks.base_domain
  cluster_issuer   = local.cluster_issuer
  argocd_namespace = module.argocd_bootstrap.argocd_namespace

  enable_dashboard_ingress = true
  oidc                     = module.oidc.oidc

  enable_pv_backups = true
  backup_storage = {
    bucket_name = resource.aws_s3_bucket.this["longhorn"].id
    region      = resource.aws_s3_bucket.this["longhorn"].region
    endpoint    = "sos-${resource.aws_s3_bucket.this["longhorn"].region}.exo.io"
    access_key  = resource.exoscale_iam_access_key.s3_iam_key["longhorn"].key
    secret_key  = resource.exoscale_iam_access_key.s3_iam_key["longhorn"].secret
  }

  dependency_ids = {
    argocd = module.argocd_bootstrap.id
    traefik      = module.traefik.id
    cert-manager = module.cert-manager.id
    keycloak     = module.keycloak.id
    oidc         = module.oidc.id
  }
Important
You are in charge of creating the S3 bucket to store the PV backups. We’ve decided to keep the creation of this bucket outside of this module, mainly because the persistence of the data should not be related to the instantiation of the module itself.
Tip
Check the SKS deployment example to see how to create the S3 bucket and to better understand the values passed on the example above.
Tip
On the technical reference below you will find further customization options, such as the backup/snapshot schedule.

If there is a need to configure something besides the common settings that we have provided, you can customize the chart’s values.yaml by adding an Helm configuration as an HCL structure:

module "longhorn" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/camptocamp/devops-stack-module-longhorn.git?ref=<RELEASE>"

  cluster_name     = module.sks.cluster_name
  base_domain      = module.sks.base_domain
  cluster_issuer   = local.cluster_issuer
  argocd_namespace = module.argocd_bootstrap.argocd_namespace

  enable_dashboard_ingress = true
  oidc                     = module.oidc.oidc

  enable_pv_backups = true
  backup_storage = {
    bucket_name = resource.aws_s3_bucket.this["longhorn"].id
    region      = resource.aws_s3_bucket.this["longhorn"].region
    endpoint    = "sos-${resource.aws_s3_bucket.this["longhorn"].region}.exo.io"
    access_key  = resource.exoscale_iam_access_key.s3_iam_key["longhorn"].key
    secret_key  = resource.exoscale_iam_access_key.s3_iam_key["longhorn"].secret
  }

  helm_values = [{ # Note the curly brackets here
    longhorn = {
      map = {
        string = "string"
        bool   = true
      }
      sequence = [
        {
          key1 = "value1"
          key2 = "value2"
        },
        {
          key1 = "value1"
          key2 = "value2"
        },
      ]
      sequence2 = [
        "string1",
        "string2"
      ]
    }
  }]

  dependency_ids = {
    argocd       = module.argocd_bootstrap.id
    traefik      = module.traefik.id
    cert-manager = module.cert-manager.id
    keycloak     = module.keycloak.id
    oidc         = module.oidc.id
  }

OIDC

There is an OAuth2-Proxy container deployed along with the Longhorn dashboard. Consequently, the oidc variable is expected to have at least the Issuer URL, the Client ID, and the Client Secret.

You can pass these values by pointing an output from another module (as above), or by defining them explicitly:

module "longhorn" {
  ...
  oidc = {
    issuer_url    = "<URL>"
    client_id     = "<ID>"
    client_secret = "<SECRET>"
  }
  ...
}

Restoring volume backups

  1. If your pod and his volume are still up, start by shuting down the pod (be careful to also stop the Deployment/StatefulSet) and delete the volume using the Longhorn Dashboard.

  2. Go to the backup tab of Longhorn Dashboard and restore the desired volume backup. You must check the Use Previous Name checkbox in order to keep the old volume name.

  3. Next, go to the volume tab, select your newly restored volume and choose Create PV/PVC option. Select Use Previous PVC option and validate.

  4. You can now restore your application, which should attach the restored volume automatically.

Technical Reference

Dependencies

module.argocd_bootstrap.id

This module must be one of the first ones to be deployed, since other modules require Persistent Volumes. Consequently it needs to be deployed right after the module argocd_bootstrap. This is the only dependency that is not optional.

module.traefik.id and module.cert-manager.id

When enabling the ingress for the Longhorn Dashboard, you need to add Traefik and cert-manager as dependencies.

module.keycloak.id and module.oidc.id

When using Keycloak as an OIDC provider for the Longhorn Dashboard, you need to add Keycloak and the OIDC module as dependencies.
