Wolfstation

This repo demonstrates a minimal image for using a Wolfi-based image with Google Cloud Workstations.

Being minimal, this image itself is not particularly useful, but the intent is to demonstrate a basis from which additional tooling may be installed to build up a more complete image for your own environment.

For example, if you would like to install gcloud you can add the google-cloud-sdk package to the package list in main.tf, or try it here via:

terraform init
export TF_VAR_target_repository=ghcr.io/${USER}/wolfstation
export TF_VAR_extra_packages='["google-cloud-sdk"]'
terraform apply

For example, if you would like to interact with GKE, then you can add the gke-gcloud-auth-plugin package (which will pull in google-cloud-sdk and kubectl), or try it here via:

terraform init
export TF_VAR_target_repository=ghcr.io/${USER}/wolfstation
export TF_VAR_extra_packages='["gke-gcloud-auth-plugin"]'
terraform apply

While the image is configured to run as root to bootstrap, when you connect via Cloud Workstations you will be logged in as user, and in the spirit of minimalism and least privilege this image does not contain sudo or apk so you will need to configure the image to have these if you would like to extend the image. You may also want to set up "passwordless" sudo.
