Heroku Infrastructure As A Code (HeroIn)

Build Status

What:

  • version control your infrastructure
  • refactor your infrastructure
  • test your infrastructure
  • track changes to your infrastructure in deployment pipelines
  • document your infrastructure as code

Why:

  • clicking does not scale
  • clicking is not auditable

1 minute tutorial: create/update app:

npm install heroin-js
export HEROKU_API_TOKEN=your_heroku_api_token

create file heroku.js

var heroin = require('heroin-js');

var configurator = heroin(process.env.HEROKU_API_TOKEN);

configurator({name: 'my-test-widget'});
node heroku.js

1 minute tutorial: export app

var heroin = require('heroin-js');

var configurator = heroin(process.env.HEROKU_API_TOKEN);

configurator.export('my-test-widget').then(function(result) {
	console.log(result);
});

1 minute tutorial: pipelines support

var heroin = require('heroin-js');

var configurator = heroin(process.env.HEROKU_API_TOKEN);

configurator.pipeline({
  name: 'my-test-pipeline',
  apps: {
    review: 'review-app',
    development: 'development-app',
    staging: 'staging-app',
    production: ['production-app-1', 'production-app-2']
  }
})

configurator.pipeline('my-test-pipeline').then(function(result) {
	console.log(result);
});

1 minute tutorial: teams support

var heroin = require('heroin-js');

var configurator = heroin(process.env.HEROKU_API_TOKEN);

configurator.team({
  name: 'my-test-team',
  default: true,
  members: [
    { email: 'someone@example.com', role: 'admin' },
    'someoneelse@example.com' // will have a member role by default
  ],
  // credit card info is required to create a team, but not to manage it
  address_1: process.env.ADDRESS,
  city: process.env.CITY,
  country: process.env.COUNTRY,
  card_number: process.env.CARD_NUMBER,
  cvv: process.env.CVV,
  expiration_month: process.env.EXPIRATION_MONTH,
  expiration_year: process.env.EXPIRATION_YEAR,
  first_name: process.env.FIRST_NAME,
  last_name: process.env.LAST_NAME
});

configurator.team('my-test-team').then(function(result) {
	console.log(result);
});

Principles:

  • don't reinvent config names, use original names from Heroku API
  • compact format so that you can describe everything in one text file
  • all changes should go through those files and your manual changes will be overwritten
  • you decide how DRY your configs should be
  • use JS for configuration (you can access process.env.VAR and merge configs using language constructs and libs, not custom DSLs)

What parts of Heroku infrastructure are supported (create, update, delete, export):

  • app
  • acm
  • config/environment variables
  • addons (basic plan setting)
  • teams
  • collaborators (including permissions)
  • features (e.g. preboot, log-runtime-metrics)
  • dyno formation (aka. dyno scaling)
  • log drains
  • domains
  • pipelines
  • buildpacks

Sample Configuration

var sampleConfiguration = {
    acm: false,
    name: 'myapp',
    region: 'eu',
    maintenance: false,
    team: 'ACME',
    stack: 'cedar-14',
    config_vars: {
        FEATURE_X_DISABLED: 'true',
        DB_PASSWORD: process.env.SECURE_VAR_FROM_CI_SERVER,
        NODE_ENV: 'production'
    },
    addons: {
        sumologic: {plan: 'sumologic:test'},
        librato: {plan: 'librato:nickel'},
        'heroku-redis': {plan: 'heroku-redis:premium-0'},
        logentries: {plan: 'logentries:le_starter'}
    },
    collaborators: [
        'someone@example.com',
        'someonelse@example.com',
        {
            email: 'someonespecial@example.com',
            permissions: ['view', 'deploy']
        }
    ],
    features: {
        'runtime-dyno-metadata': {enabled: false},
        'log-runtime-metrics': {enabled: true},
        'http-session-affinity': {enabled: false},
        preboot: {enabled: true},
        'http-shard-header': {enabled: false},
        'http-end-to-end-continue': {enabled: false}
    },
    formation: [{process: 'web', quantity: 2, size: '1X'}],
    log_drains: [
        'https://logdrain.com:5000',
        'http://stats1.example.com:7000',
        'syslog://api.logentries.com:9000'
    ],
    domains: ['mydomain.com', 'otherdomain.com'],
    buildpacks: ['https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-nodejs#yarn']
};

Extending addons with plugins

Heroku addons are fairly limited in what you can configure. Imagine e.g. you may want to configure monitoring alerts in the monitoring addon. It's not possible in the Heroku API. We need to make direct calls to the monitoring provider API. HeroIn provides extension mechanism with plugins. You can add a plugin with a matching addon name and inside the value object you specify extension with configure/export functions. In the example below we're extending a librato addon with the alerts extension. Configure and export functions should provide promise based interface.

var configurator = heroin(process.env.HEROKU_API_TOKEN);
configurator.addPlugin({
  librato: {
    alerts: {
      configure: function (config, configVars) {
        // make your API call here
        console.log('Configuring plugin with config ', config, 'and additional config vars', configVars);
        return Promise.resolve();
      },
      export: function () {
        // make your API call here
        return Promise.resolve({conf: 'alerts_config_placeholder'});
      }
    }
  }
});

configurator({
    name: 'simple-widget',
    region: 'eu',
    config_vars: {
      ADDON_CONFIG_VAR: 'test'
    },
    addons: {librato: {plan: 'librato:development', alerts: {conf: 'alerts_config_placeholder'}}},
    collaborators: ['mateusz.kwasniewski@schibsted.pl']
  }
);

Logging Levels

var configurator = heroin(process.env.HEROKU_API_TOKEN, {logLevel: 'INFO'});

Actual values:

  • NONE - don't print anything to the console
  • ERROR - print only error messages
  • INFO (default) - print only high level configuration steps
  • DEBUG - print everything from ERROR and INFO plus all HTTP calls to Heroku API

Skip actions

If you want to skip certain actions, specify them in options.skipActions when creating the configurator. Currently only supports 'collaborators' and 'logDrains'

var configurator = heroin(process.env.HEROKU_API_TOKEN, {skipActions: ['logDrains']});
