# Chariot2 Pallet Since this pallet contains GCP infra, split scheduling is recommended. Read the documentation on [Applying Pallet Packages](https://docs.edge-infra.dev/foundation/manifest-scheduling/pallets/developing-pkgs/applying/) to learn about split scheduling and its prerequisites. Also, getting/having access to a GCP development sandbox is required. ## Environment Setup Create an .env file with the following variables: ```dotenv # gke, sds, or generic. use "generic" for any K8s cluster that isn't GKE or # SDS. export CLUSTER_PROVIDER= # uuid is necessary for generating a cluster_hash, existing resources should # have this in their annotations already but one can be created by using # uuidgen export CLUSTER_UUID= # google cloud project id export GCP_PROJECT_ID= # defaults to us and east1-b, otherwise needs to be valid GCP value export GCP_REGION= export GCP_ZONE= # set to same value as gcp project ID when developing within a single # project. export FOREMAN_GCP_PROJECT_ID= # enables split scheduling export INFRA=true # name of the kubeconfig context to use to schedule infra objects; # default behavior is to apply all objects to the same K8s context export INFRA_CONTEXT= # target namespace for all applied infrastructure resources, including # dependencies; the namespace is created if it does not already exist. export INFRA_NAMESPACE= ``` ## Applying the Pallet Tips for applying: - The `key.json` can be created by going to GCP console for your sandbox project, finding the IAM service account for kcc and adding a key in the `key` section of the service account - If you are using a `kind` cluster, you can reset it with: ``` just hack/kind/reset ``` Then, run these commands on the non-infra cluster: ```shell source .env lift apply \ --gcp-project-number= \ --tenants-gcp-folder-id= \ config/pallets/edge/chariot2 ``` *Note:* Some IAM policy members may not have the permissions required to be configured correctly depending on where the infra for the pallet is applied. The `deployment` should still run even if this issue arises > If an error similar to this is returned: `dry-run failed, error: failed to create typed patch object: .data.GCP_TENANTS_FOLDER_ID: expected string, got &value.valueUnstructured{Value:}`, then wrap the tenants-gcp-folder-id value with double & single quotes (e.g. '"0123456789"') and apply the pallet again ## Rendering Parameters Check `chariot2`'s IAM policy members in `config/pallets/edge/chariot2/gcpinfra/manifests.yaml` for more context on where most of these rendering parameters are being used. All gcp id's were taken from the GCP console (click select a project -> click `ALL` tab -> expand the `preprod` folder -> explore this directory). | Rendering Parameter | Description | Example | |-------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------| | gcp-project-number | google cloud project number | 750895359997 (dev0 foreman) | | tenants-gcp-folder-id | gcp folder id for the instance's tenants folder | 169927670984 (dev0) |
