0-bootstrap

This repo is part of a multi-part guide that shows how to configure and deploy the example.com reference architecture described in Google Cloud security foundations guide. The following table lists the stages of this deployment.

0-bootstrap (this file) Bootstraps a Google Cloud organization, creating all the required resources and permissions to start using the Cloud Foundation Toolkit (CFT). This step also configures a CI/CD pipeline for foundations code in subsequent stages.
1-org Sets up top-level shared folders, monitoring and networking projects, and organization-level logging, and sets baseline security settings through organizational policy.
2-environments Sets up development, non-production, and production environments within the Google Cloud organization that you've created.
3-networks-dual-svpc Sets up base and restricted shared VPCs with default DNS, NAT (optional), Private Service networking, VPC service controls, on-premises Dedicated Interconnect, and baseline firewall rules for each environment. It also sets up the global DNS hub.
3-networks-hub-and-spoke Sets up base and restricted shared VPCs with all the default configuration found on step 3-networks-dual-svpc, but here the architecture will be based on the Hub and Spoke network model. It also sets up the global DNS hub.
4-projects Set up a folder structure, projects, and application infrastructure pipeline for applications, which are connected as service projects to the shared VPC created in the previous stage.
5-app-infra Deploy a Compute Engine instance in one of the business unit projects using the infra pipeline setup in 4-projects.

For an overview of the architecture and the parts, see the terraform-example-foundation README file.

Purpose

The purpose of this step is to bootstrap a Google Cloud organization, creating all the required resources and permissions to start using the Cloud Foundation Toolkit (CFT). This step also configures a CI/CD Pipeline for foundations code in subsequent stages. The CI/CD Pipeline can use either Cloud Build and Cloud Source Repos or Jenkins and your own Git repos (which might live on-premises).

Prerequisites

To run the commands described in this document, install the following:

Note: Make sure that you use version 1.3.0 of Terraform throughout this series. Otherwise, you might experience Terraform state snapshot lock errors.

Also make sure that you've done the following:

  1. Set up a Google Cloud organization.
  2. Set up a Google Cloud billing account.
  3. Create Cloud Identity or Google Workspace groups for organization and billing admins.
  4. Add the user who will use Terraform to the group_org_admins group. They must be in this group, or they won't have roles/resourcemanager.projectCreator access.
  5. For the user who will run the procedures in this document, grant the following roles:
    • The roles/resourcemanager.organizationAdmin role on the Google Cloud organization.
    • The roles/orgpolicy.policyAdmin role on the Google Cloud organization.
    • The roles/billing.admin role on the billing account.
    • The roles/resourcemanager.folderCreator role.

If other users need to be able to run these procedures, add them to the group represented by the org_project_creators variable. For more information about the permissions that are required, and the resources that are created, see the organization bootstrap module documentation.

Optional - Automatic creation of Google Cloud Identity groups

In the foundation, Google Cloud Identity groups are used for authentication and access management .

To enable automatic creation of the required groups, complete the following actions:

  • Have an existing project for Cloud Identity API billing.
  • Enable the Cloud Identity API (cloudidentity.googleapis.com) on the billing project.
  • Grant role roles/serviceusage.serviceUsageConsumer to the user running Terraform on the billing project.
  • Provide values for the groups and billing project in the variable groups.

All groups in the groups.required_groups are required.

All groups in the groups.optional_groups are optional.

Optional - Cloud Build access to on-prem

See onprem for instructions on how to configure Cloud Build access to your on-premises environment.

Troubleshooting

See troubleshooting if you run into issues during this step.

Deploying with Jenkins

If you are using the jenkins_bootstrap sub-module, see README-Jenkins for requirements and instructions on how to run the 0-bootstrap step. Using Jenkins requires a few manual steps, including configuring connectivity with your current Jenkins manager (controller) environment.

Deploying with Cloud Build

  1. Clone terraform-example-foundation into your local environment and navigate to the 0-bootstrap folder.

    git clone https://github.com/terraform-google-modules/terraform-example-foundation.git

cd terraform-example-foundation/0-bootstrap

  2. Rename terraform.example.tfvars to terraform.tfvars and update the file with values from your environment:

    mv terraform.example.tfvars terraform.tfvars

  3. Use the helper script validate-requirements.sh to validate your environment:

    ../scripts/validate-requirements.sh -o <ORGANIZATION_ID> -b <BILLING_ACCOUNT_ID> -u <END_USER_EMAIL>

    Note: The script is not able to validate if the user is in a Cloud Identity or Google Workspace group with the required roles.

  4. Run terraform init and terraform plan and review the output.

    terraform init
terraform plan -input=false -out bootstrap.tfplan

  5. To validate your policies, run gcloud beta terraform vet. For installation instructions, see Install Google Cloud CLI.

  6. Run the following commands and check for violations:

    export VET_PROJECT_ID=A-VALID-PROJECT-ID
terraform show -json bootstrap.tfplan > bootstrap.json
gcloud beta terraform vet bootstrap.json --policy-library="../policy-library" --project ${VET_PROJECT_ID}

    A-VALID-PROJECT-ID must be an existing project you have access to. This is necessary because Terraform-validator needs to link resources to a valid Google Cloud Platform project.

  7. Run terraform apply.

    terraform apply bootstrap.tfplan

  8. Run terraform output to get the email address of the terraform service accounts that will be used to run manual steps for shared environments in steps 3-networks-dual-svpc, 3-networks-hub-and-spoke, and 4-projects and the state bucket that will be used by step 4-projects.

    export network_step_sa=$(terraform output -raw networks_step_terraform_service_account_email)
export projects_step_sa=$(terraform output -raw projects_step_terraform_service_account_email)
export projects_gcs_bucket_tfstate=$(terraform output -raw projects_gcs_bucket_tfstate)

echo "network step service account = ${network_step_sa}"
echo "projects step service account = ${projects_step_sa}"
echo "projects gcs bucket tfstate = ${projects_gcs_bucket_tfstate}"

  9. Run terraform output to get the ID of your Cloud Build project:

    export cloudbuild_project_id=$(terraform output -raw cloudbuild_project_id)
echo "cloud build project ID = ${cloudbuild_project_id}"

  10. Copy the backend and update backend.tf with the name of your Google Cloud Storage bucket for Terraform's state. Also update the backend.tf of all steps.

    export backend_bucket=$(terraform output -raw gcs_bucket_tfstate)
echo "backend_bucket = ${backend_bucket}"

export backend_bucket_projects=$(terraform output -raw projects_gcs_bucket_tfstate)
echo "backend_bucket_projects = ${backend_bucket_projects}"

cp backend.tf.example backend.tf
cd ..

for i in `find -name 'backend.tf'`; do sed -i "s/UPDATE_ME/${backend_bucket}/" $i; done
for i in `find -name 'backend.tf'`; do sed -i "s/UPDATE_PROJECTS_BACKEND/${backend_bucket_projects}/" $i; done

cd 0-bootstrap

  11. Re-run terraform init. When you're prompted, agree to copy Terraform state to Cloud Storage.

    terraform init

  12. (Optional) Run terraform plan to verify that state is configured correctly. You should see no changes from the previous state.

  13. Clone the policy repo and copy contents of policy-library to new repo. Clone the repo at the same level of the terraform-example-foundation folder.

    cd ../..

gcloud source repos clone gcp-policies --project=${cloudbuild_project_id}

cd gcp-policies
git checkout -b main
cp -RT ../terraform-example-foundation/policy-library/ .

  14. Commit changes and push your main branch to the policy repo.

    git add .
git commit -m 'Initialize policy library repo'
git push --set-upstream origin main

  15. Navigate out of the repo.

    cd ..

  16. Save 0-bootstrap Terraform configuration to gcp-bootstrap source repository:

    gcloud source repos clone gcp-bootstrap --project=${cloudbuild_project_id}

cd gcp-bootstrap
git checkout -b plan
mkdir -p envs/shared

cp -RT ../terraform-example-foundation/0-bootstrap/ ./envs/shared
cp ../terraform-example-foundation/build/cloudbuild-tf-* .
cp ../terraform-example-foundation/build/tf-wrapper.sh .
chmod 755 ./tf-wrapper.sh

git add .
git commit -m 'Initialize bootstrap repo'
git push --set-upstream origin plan

  17. Continue with the instructions in the 1-org step.

Note 1: The stages after 0-bootstrap use terraform_remote_state data source to read common configuration like the organization ID from the output of the 0-bootstrap stage. They will fail if the state is not copied to the Cloud Storage bucket.

Note 2: After the deploy, even if you did not receive the project quota error described in the Troubleshooting guide, we recommend that you request 50 additional projects for the projects step service account created in this step.

Running Terraform locally

If you deploy using Cloud Build, the bucket information is replaced in the state backends as part of the build process when the build is executed by Cloud Build. If you want to execute Terraform locally, you need to add your Cloud Storage bucket to the backend.tf files. Each step has instructions for this change.
