MulgaOS AWS Infrastructure as Code

This directory contains OpenTofu/Terraform configuration files for deploying infrastructure on MulgaOS using AWS-compatible APIs.

Prerequisites

1. OpenTofu or Terraform installed

   # Install OpenTofu (recommended)
   # See: https://opentofu.org/docs/intro/install/
   
   # Or use Terraform
   # See: https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/install
   

2. MulgaOS services running

   • spinifex daemon - Core daemon with NATS subscriptions
   • awsd - AWS API gateway (default: http://localhost:8080)
   • predastore - S3-compatible storage
   • viperblock - EBS-compatible block storage

3. AWS credentials configured

   # Option 1: Environment variables
   export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_access_key
   export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_secret_key
   
   # Option 2: AWS CLI profile
   aws configure --profile spinifex
   export AWS_PROFILE=spinifex
   

4. AMI available Before running, ensure you have a Debian 12 AMI imported:

   # Import an AMI using the spinifex CLI or aws CLI
   aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:8080 ec2 describe-images
   

Configuration

Environment Variables

Variable	Default	Description
TF_VAR_mulgaos_endpoint	http://localhost:8080	MulgaOS API endpoint
TF_VAR_region	ap-southeast-2	AWS region (for compatibility)
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID	-	MulgaOS access key
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY	-	MulgaOS secret key

terraform.tfvars (optional)

Create a terraform.tfvars file for custom settings:

mulgaos_endpoint = "http://192.168.1.100:8080"
region           = "us-west-2"

Usage

Initialize

cd iac/aws
tofu init
# or: terraform init

Validate

tofu validate
# or: terraform validate

Plan

tofu plan
# or: terraform plan

Apply

tofu apply
# or: terraform apply

Destroy

tofu destroy
# or: terraform destroy

What Gets Created

The main.tf creates:

1. VPC (10.1.1.0/16) - Virtual Private Cloud
2. Internet Gateway - For public internet access
3. Public Subnet (10.1.2.0/24) - With auto-assign public IP
4. Route Table - Routes 0.0.0.0/0 through IGW
5. Security Group - Allows SSH (22), HTTP (80), HTTPS (443) inbound
6. Placement Group - Spread strategy for HA
7. 3 EC2 Instances - t3.small Debian 12 VMs
8. SSH Key Pair - ED25519 key saved to spinifex-test.pem

SSH Access

After tofu apply, SSH into instances:

# Using the generated key
ssh -i spinifex-test.pem admin@<public_ip>

# For local development with QEMU port forwarding
# Find the forwarded port from QEMU args (-netdev user,id=net0,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:PORT-:22)
ssh -p PORT -i spinifex-test.pem admin@127.0.0.1

Troubleshooting

"No valid credential sources found"

Ensure AWS credentials are set:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_key
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_secret

"Error: No AMI found"

Import a Debian 12 AMI first, or modify main.tf to use a different AMI filter.

Connection refused

Ensure MulgaOS services are running:

# Check if awsd gateway is running
curl http://localhost:8080/health

# Check daemon status
spinifex daemon status

"InvalidAction" errors

Some AWS operations may not be implemented yet. Check TODO.md for the current implementation status.

Customization

Using a different AMI

Modify the data "aws_ami" block in main.tf:

data "aws_ami" "custom" {
  most_recent = true
  owners      = ["self"]  # Your imported AMIs

  filter {
    name   = "name"
    values = ["my-custom-ami-*"]
  }
}

Changing instance count

Modify the count parameter:

resource "aws_instance" "vm" {
  count = 5  # Change from 3 to 5
  # ...
}

Different instance type

resource "aws_instance" "vm" {
  instance_type = "t3.medium"  # Change from t3.small
  # ...
}
