## Architecture

| Layer | Name                   | Description                                             | Provisioner         |
|-------|------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|---------------------|
| 0     | [metal](./metal)       | Bare metal OS installation, Terraform state backend,... | Ansible, PXE server |
| 1     | [infra](./infra)       | Kubernetes clusters, shared apps (Git, Vault, Argo...)  | Terraform, Helm     |
| 2     | [apps](./apps)         |                                                         | Argo                |

## Usage

### Prerequisite

For the controller (to run Ansible, stateless PXE server, Terraform...):

- SSH keys in `~/.ssh/{id_ed25519,id_ed25519.pub}` (you can generate it with `ssh-keygen -t ed25519`)
- Docker with `host` networking driver (which means [only Docker on Linux hosts](https://docs.docker.com/network/host/), you can use a Linux virtual machine with bridged networking if you're on macOS or Windows)

For bare metal nodes:

- PXE IPv4 enabled
- Wake-on-LAN enabled
- Secure boot disabled (optional, depending on the OS)

### Configurations

- [Bare metal nodes settings](./metal/hosts.ini) (IP, MAC...)
- [OS settings](./metal/group_vars/all.yml) (PXE, network...)

### Building

Open the tools container:

```sh
make tools
```

Then build the homelab:

```sh
make
```
