Infrakube

A Kubernetes controller for running Terraform and other Infrastructure as Code workflows.

Infrakube is the successor to terraform-operator. It uses the same kind: Terraform resource and keeps familiar spec fields like terraformVersion, terraformModule, and images.terraform, making migration straightforward. The main change is the API group, which moves from tf.galleybytes.com to infrakube.galleybytes.com.

Features

• Runs Terraform init, plan, and apply as Kubernetes pods
• Supports all Terraform versions from 0.12 through 1.14 out of the box
• Module downloads via git, https, and other sources supported by go-getter
• Kubernetes, S3, GCS, and other Terraform backends
• AWS IRSA, GCP Workload Identity, and other cloud auth methods
• Task plugins for custom pre/post workflows
• Monitor plugins for notifications and observability

Quick Start

apiVersion: infrakube.galleybytes.com/v1
kind: Terraform
metadata:
  name: my-infra
spec:
  terraformVersion: "1.5.7"
  terraformModule:
    source: https://github.com/example/module.git?ref=main
  backend: |-
    terraform {
      backend "kubernetes" {
        secret_suffix     = "my-infra"
        in_cluster_config = true
      }
    }

Support expectations

The automated suite is meant to prove controller behavior, task orchestration, and basic workflow execution. It does not try to cover every provider or cloud-specific module in the default CI path. If stronger proof is needed later, sandbox cloud smoke tests can live in separate nightly or manually triggered workflows.

For local test workflow details, see docs/testing.md.
