Some checks failed
continuous-integration/drone/push Build is failing
The cc-ci server already runs on Hetzner (migration done; nix/hosts/cc-ci-hetzner landed directly on main 2026-05-31). PR#2's host config was superseded by newer main commits, but its terraform/ provisioning scaffolding (cpx32 + nixos-infect) was never preserved. Add it here as the infrastructure-of-record so the box is reproducible. .gitignore keeps tfstate + secret tfvars out; HCLOUD_TOKEN is an env var at apply time (no secrets committed). PR#2 closed as superseded. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# cc-ci Hetzner Cloud Terraform
|
|
|
|
Provisions the cc-ci NixOS server on Hetzner Cloud (cpx32, 4 vCPU / 8 GB, x86 AMD, nbg1).
|
|
Stage 1 (Terraform): creates the server, runs nixos-infect to convert Debian 12 → NixOS.
|
|
Stage 2 (manual): clone the flake + apply the cc-ci config.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites (Class-A1 inputs — provide at apply time, NEVER commit)
|
|
|
|
| Input | How to provide |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `HCLOUD_TOKEN` | `export HCLOUD_TOKEN=<token>` in shell before `tofu apply` |
|
|
| SSH key pair | Generate once: `ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/cc-ci-hetzner`; pass pubkey via `TF_VAR_ssh_public_key="$(cat ~/.ssh/cc-ci-hetzner.pub)"` |
|
|
| Bootstrap age key | Provision to `/var/lib/sops-nix/key.txt` on the server (Stage 2; see `docs/install.md`) |
|
|
|
|
## Stage 1 — Provision server + nixos-infect
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd terraform/
|
|
|
|
# Provide secrets via environment
|
|
export HCLOUD_TOKEN=<your-token>
|
|
export TF_VAR_ssh_public_key="$(cat ~/.ssh/cc-ci-hetzner.pub)"
|
|
|
|
# Download providers (uses .terraform.lock.hcl — pinned, reproducible)
|
|
tofu init # or: terraform init
|
|
|
|
# Preview
|
|
tofu plan
|
|
|
|
# Apply — creates cpx31 server in nbg1, runs nixos-infect on first boot
|
|
tofu apply
|
|
|
|
# Note the output IP:
|
|
# server_ipv4 = "x.x.x.x"
|
|
# ssh_connect = "ssh root@x.x.x.x"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
nixos-infect runs on first boot and **reboots the server** into NixOS (~5 min total).
|
|
Wait for the reboot to complete, then verify:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Check NixOS is up:
|
|
ssh root@<ip> 'nixos-version'
|
|
|
|
# Inspect infect log if needed:
|
|
ssh root@<ip> 'cat /var/log/nixos-infect.log'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After the reboot the server runs bare NixOS (infect-generated config). Proceed to Stage 2.
|
|
|
|
## Stage 2 — Apply the cc-ci flake config
|
|
|
|
Follows the D8 install flow documented in `docs/install.md` exactly:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# On the Hetzner server (ssh root@<ip>):
|
|
|
|
# 1. Clone the flake (--recursive brings cc-ci-secrets submodule)
|
|
git clone --recursive https://git.autonomic.zone/recipe-maintainers/cc-ci.git /etc/cc-ci
|
|
cd /etc/cc-ci
|
|
|
|
# 2. Provision the bootstrap age key (the one irreducible out-of-band secret)
|
|
mkdir -p /var/lib/sops-nix
|
|
install -m 0600 /dev/stdin /var/lib/sops-nix/key.txt <<'EOF'
|
|
<paste bootstrap age private key here — see docs/install.md>
|
|
EOF
|
|
|
|
# 3. Apply the cc-ci Hetzner host config
|
|
nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#cc-ci-hetzner
|
|
|
|
# 4. Verify (all units green, reconcile oneshots converged)
|
|
systemctl --failed
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Variables
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Default | Description |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `server_type` | `cpx31` | x86 only. `cpx31`=AMD 4vCPU/8GB, `cx33`=Intel 4vCPU/8GB. Never `cax*` (ARM). |
|
|
| `location` | `nbg1` | Hetzner datacenter. |
|
|
| `image` | `debian-12` | Base image; nixos-infect converts it to NixOS. debian-12 preferred. |
|
|
| `server_name` | `cc-ci` | Hetzner server name. |
|
|
| `ssh_public_key` | (required) | Public key registered for root access. |
|
|
|
|
Override via env: `TF_VAR_location=hel1 tofu apply`.
|
|
|
|
## Teardown (throwaway verification run)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
tofu destroy # removes server + SSH key; billing stops immediately
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- `.terraform.lock.hcl` is committed (pins provider SHAs — analogous to flake.lock).
|
|
- `*.tfstate`, `*.tfvars`, `.terraform/` are gitignored — never commit state or secrets.
|
|
- `cpx31` is retired in some Hetzner DCs; `cpx32` (equivalent AMD, 4 vCPU / 8 GB) is the default.
|
|
`cx33` (Intel, same spec) is also available. Both are x86_64 — compatible with the `x86_64-linux` flake.
|
|
- The Hetzner server has a public IPv4 — future: point `*.ci.commoninternet.net` A record directly
|
|
at it and drop the gateway/MagicDNS path (see plan §6 + `DECISIONS.md`).
