Integrate CrowdStrike falcon installation and OIDC setup

[ashirwadnivalkar]

Hey folks

I am new to Terraform and seeking some help/direction about how I could integrate installation of Crowdstrike falcon during the EC2 creation of this runner. Also, wanted to integrate OIDC for this runner.
Any guidance or pointers to any documentation or examples would be helpful.

Thank you

Sorry, but I do not know Crowdstrike. I think they should have some docs available showing how to use it. For OIDC and Github check https://docs.github.com/en/actions/deployment/security-hardening-your-deployments/configuring-openid-connect-in-cloud-providers

Thanks for the document pointers for OIDC. Okay ,if not Crowdstrike, can you please guide me how I can install any package using a command on to the main Runner Orchestrator EC2 instance. for eg: passing commands via bash script which creation of EC2 instance.
I know we can do this using user_data but I am unaware where I can modify this code.

You can use the runner_install.post_install_script to inject a script:

module "gitlab_runner" {
  runner_install = {
    post_install_script = templatefile("${path.module}/templates/runners_user_install_script",
      {
        gitlab_runner_version = local.gitlab_runner_version
    })
  }
}

Basic runners_user_install_script:

echo "post install script on the Runner"
