pritunl-k8s-tf-do VS woodpecker

I have a full example here of a working GHA pipeline that deploys terraform infrastructure. This deploys atlantis, which can then be used to deploy Pritunl VPN. Works almost perfectly except for the fact that helm yaml encoded sensitive values are revealed on terraform destroy, so I simply don't have anything sensitive encoded in yaml.

Hey now, I've already got a homelab that launches a k8s cluster and installs Pritunl VPN for coffee shop wifi. I do at least understand that tools need a valid use case before being applied, although admittedly installing it on k8s vs just using Nomad or something is more RDD than not for this one.

I'm looking for a company that is willing to judge me based off of past experience and previous projects I've already completed. So ideally no LeetCode, and no more take homes unless you want me to post them publicly. Ideally looking to come in at $160K+ for mid level or $200K+ for senior, depending on how much of a match there is between me and the position, and a sign-on bonus would be incredible. Hopefully I have enough of a reputation at this point where you've seen my posts and comments in /r/devops and already know what I'm capable of, but if not, I'm happy to chat about previous projects in-depth and go over what I've worked on. A code review as part of the interview process would be absolutely stellar. This is what I've been working on recently as well as my "homelab" if you re looking for some specifics. DM or chat with your work email for an official resume

Already done, but good call on learning how to create conditionals. I will look into it!

Playing around with grafana/loki/prometheus all via Terraform, GitHub Actions, and Atlantis in a public repo.

I set up a whole pipeline to install and configure Pritunl VPN on DigitalOcean and it only costs me like $60/month for a 3 node cluster.

https://github.com/autotune/pritunl-k8s-tf-do/blob/master/README.md is the repo. The README should answer any questions about how the pipeline works but the end result is a pritunl webgui listening on port 80 with an ingress route for https, a SERVICE load balancer that listens for VPN connections, and the ability to connect to said service load balancer over Pritunl VPN client. Note this is missing a few things, for one you can only have a replica set of 1 in the deployment. I need to figure out how to add HA with the "enterprise" edition at $70/month extra (still relatively cheap for what you get!). But for personal use it should suffice. Also, I tried using an ingress for the vpn itself but can't get it working, so stuck with SVC load balaner instead, which works fine. Any suggestions here would be appreciated!

All I know for sure is the one cert I was using with letsencrypt kept failing to renew. I just tried it with zerossl since the sign up page cert was finally renewed last night and people have generally been happy with them outside this little incident and seems to actually be working as expected. The helm release I am using is linked to via tf here and the ingress rules are here.

Is anyone using woodpecker? It's a self-hosted CI/CD server forked from Drone. Really good, and actively developed.

Run your own container registry, build and host everything yourself, dont rely on others. Docker for example has a option for that but imo its very basic and limited. Harbor is more advanced but still not overly complicated. You could add build workers to that and automate your entire pipeline, but maybe for a single image thats overkill. But good to have those options in the future. Things to look at for example: Gitea (lighter) / Gitlab (more heavy), Drone.io, Woodpecker

> I wish it had some sort of CI like github actions or bitbucket pipeline

I use Gitea with Drone CI and it works pretty well: https://www.drone.io/

Some might also prefer the Woodpecker CI fork due to the license: https://woodpecker-ci.org/

I setup Drone as a part of my migration away from GitLab Omnibus and have no complaints so far: https://blog.kronis.dev/articles/goodbye-gitlab-hello-gitea-...

https://www.drone.io/ or the more open fork https://woodpecker-ci.org/

I’m trying to migrate of my personal repos from GitHub to Codeberg. The biggest problem is to find a replacement for GitHub Actions (the free offering is so generous), and my current solution for that is to self-host an instance of Woodpecker CI [1].

I’d like to see even more diversity in Git hosting beyond “let’s all migrate from X to Y”, and for that to happen, Forgejo (a soft fork of Gitea) has already began implementing federation [2].
