google_cloud_image_nixos

This terraform module builds and publishes custom NixOS Google Cloud images.

Runtime dependencies

Because this module uses the "external" provider it needs the following executables to be in the path to work properly:

• bash
• nix
• readlink -f (busybox or coreutils)

Known limitations

NixOS images are built at Terraform plan time. This can make the plan quite slow.

Building the image doesn't yield any output, unless the build is interrupted or failed.

When a new image is published, the old-one gets removed. This potentially introduces a race-condition where other targets are trying to create new instances with the old image. To reduce the race window, create_before_destroy is being used. See https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/15485 for related discussions.

Only x86_64-linux is currently supported.
