All checks were successful
Addresses review #907 blocker: docs/nomad-migration.md claimed --empty "skips policies/auth/import/deploy" but _disinto_init_nomad had no $empty gate around those blocks — operators reaching the "cluster-only escape hatch" would still invoke vault-apply-policies.sh and vault-nomad-auth.sh, contradicting the runbook. Changes: - _disinto_init_nomad: exit 0 immediately after cluster-up when --empty is set, in both dry-run and real-run branches. Only the cluster-up plan appears; no policies, no auth, no import, no deploy. Matches the docs. - disinto_init: reject --empty combined with any --import-* flag. --empty discards the import step, so the combination silently does nothing (worse failure mode than a clear error up front). Symmetric to the existing --empty vs --with check. - Pre-flight existence check for policies/auth scripts now runs unconditionally on the non-empty path (previously gated on --import-*), matching the unconditional invocation. Import-script check stays gated on --import-*. Non-blocking observation also addressed: the pre-flight guard comment + actual predicate were inconsistent ("unconditionally invoke policies+auth" but only checked on import). Now the predicate matches: [ "$empty" != "true" ] gates policies/auth, and an inner --import-* guard gates the import script. Tests (+3): - --empty --dry-run shows no S2.x sections (negative assertions) - --empty --import-env rejected - --empty --import-sops --age-key rejected 30/30 nomad tests pass; shellcheck clean.

# Nomad+Vault migration — cutover-day runbook
|
|
|
|
`disinto init --backend=nomad` is the single entry-point that turns a fresh
|
|
LXC (with the disinto repo cloned) into a running Nomad+Vault cluster with
|
|
policies applied, JWT workload-identity auth configured, secrets imported
|
|
from the old docker stack, and services deployed.
|
|
|
|
## Cutover-day invocation
|
|
|
|
On the new LXC, as root (or an operator with NOPASSWD sudo):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Copy the plaintext .env + sops-encrypted .env.vault.enc + age keyfile
|
|
# from the old box first (out of band — SSH, USB, whatever your ops
|
|
# procedure allows). Then:
|
|
|
|
sudo ./bin/disinto init \
|
|
--backend=nomad \
|
|
--import-env /tmp/.env \
|
|
--import-sops /tmp/.env.vault.enc \
|
|
--age-key /tmp/keys.txt \
|
|
--with forgejo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This runs, in order:
|
|
|
|
1. **`lib/init/nomad/cluster-up.sh`** (S0) — installs Nomad + Vault
|
|
binaries, writes `/etc/nomad.d/*`, initializes Vault, starts both
|
|
services, waits for the Nomad node to become ready.
|
|
2. **`tools/vault-apply-policies.sh`** (S2.1) — syncs every
|
|
`vault/policies/*.hcl` into Vault as an ACL policy. Idempotent.
|
|
3. **`lib/init/nomad/vault-nomad-auth.sh`** (S2.3) — enables Vault's
|
|
JWT auth method at `jwt-nomad`, points it at Nomad's JWKS, writes
|
|
one role per policy, reloads Nomad so jobs can exchange
|
|
workload-identity tokens for Vault tokens. Idempotent.
|
|
4. **`tools/vault-import.sh`** (S2.2) — reads `/tmp/.env` and the
|
|
sops-decrypted `/tmp/.env.vault.enc`, writes them to the KV paths
|
|
matching the S2.1 policy layout (`kv/disinto/bots/*`, `kv/disinto/shared/*`,
|
|
`kv/disinto/runner/*`). Idempotent (overwrites KV v2 data in place).
|
|
5. **`lib/init/nomad/deploy.sh forgejo`** (S1) — validates + runs the
|
|
`nomad/jobs/forgejo.hcl` jobspec. Forgejo reads its admin creds from
|
|
Vault via the `template` stanza (S2.4).
|
|
|
|
## Flag summary
|
|
|
|
| Flag | Meaning |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `--backend=nomad` | Switch the init dispatcher to the Nomad+Vault path (instead of docker compose). |
|
|
| `--empty` | Bring the cluster up, skip policies/auth/import/deploy. Escape hatch for debugging. |
|
|
| `--with forgejo[,…]` | Deploy these services after the cluster is up. |
|
|
| `--import-env PATH` | Plaintext `.env` from the old stack. Optional. |
|
|
| `--import-sops PATH` | Sops-encrypted `.env.vault.enc` from the old stack. Requires `--age-key`. |
|
|
| `--age-key PATH` | Age keyfile used to decrypt `--import-sops`. Requires `--import-sops`. |
|
|
| `--dry-run` | Print the full plan (cluster-up + policies + auth + import + deploy) and exit. Touches nothing. |
|
|
|
|
### Flag validation
|
|
|
|
- `--import-sops` without `--age-key` → error.
|
|
- `--age-key` without `--import-sops` → error.
|
|
- `--import-env` alone (no sops) → OK (imports just the plaintext `.env`).
|
|
- `--backend=docker` with any `--import-*` flag → error.
|
|
- `--empty` with any `--import-*` flag → error (mutually exclusive: `--empty`
|
|
skips the import step, so pairing them silently discards the import
|
|
intent).
|
|
|
|
## Idempotency
|
|
|
|
Every layer is idempotent by design. Re-running the same command on an
|
|
already-provisioned box is a no-op at every step:
|
|
|
|
- **Cluster-up:** second run detects running `nomad`/`vault` systemd
|
|
units and state files, skips re-init.
|
|
- **Policies:** byte-for-byte compare against on-server policy text;
|
|
"unchanged" for every untouched file.
|
|
- **Auth:** skips auth-method create if `jwt-nomad/` already enabled,
|
|
skips config write if the JWKS + algs match, skips server.hcl write if
|
|
the file on disk is identical to the repo copy.
|
|
- **Import:** KV v2 writes overwrite in place (same path, same keys,
|
|
same values → no new version).
|
|
- **Deploy:** `nomad job run` is declarative; same jobspec → no new
|
|
allocation.
|
|
|
|
## Dry-run
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./bin/disinto init --backend=nomad \
|
|
--import-env /tmp/.env \
|
|
--import-sops /tmp/.env.vault.enc \
|
|
--age-key /tmp/keys.txt \
|
|
--with forgejo \
|
|
--dry-run
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Prints the five-section plan — cluster-up, policies, auth, import,
|
|
deploy — with every path and every argv that would be executed. No
|
|
network, no sudo, no state mutation. See
|
|
`tests/disinto-init-nomad.bats` for the exact output shape.
|
|
|
|
## No-import path
|
|
|
|
If you already have `kv/disinto/*` seeded by other means (manual
|
|
`vault kv put`, a replica, etc.), omit all three `--import-*` flags.
|
|
`disinto init --backend=nomad --with forgejo` still applies policies,
|
|
configures auth, and deploys — but skips the import step with:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[import] no --import-env/--import-sops — skipping; set them or seed kv/disinto/* manually before deploying secret-dependent services
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Forgejo's template stanza will fail to render (and thus the allocation
|
|
will stall) until those KV paths exist — so either import them or seed
|
|
them first.
|
|
|
|
## Secret hygiene
|
|
|
|
- Never log a secret value. The CLI only prints paths (`--import-env`,
|
|
`--age-key`) and KV *paths* (`kv/disinto/bots/review/token`), never
|
|
the values themselves. `tools/vault-import.sh` is the only thing that
|
|
reads the values, and it pipes them directly into Vault's HTTP API.
|
|
- The age keyfile must be mode 0400 — `vault-import.sh` refuses to
|
|
source a keyfile with looser permissions.
|
|
- `VAULT_ADDR` must be localhost during import — the import tool
|
|
refuses to run against a remote Vault, preventing accidental exposure.
