# Create Infrastructure

Generate Harness Infrastructure Definition YAML and push via MCP.

## Instructions

1. **Identify infrastructure type** - KubernetesDirect, KubernetesGcp (GKE), KubernetesAzure (AKS), ECS, or ServerlessAwsLambda
2. **Ensure prerequisites exist** - The environment and cloud/cluster connector must be created first
3. **Generate YAML** using the templates below, referencing the correct connector and environment
4. **Create via MCP** using `harness_create` with resource_type `infrastructure`

## Infrastructure Types

### KubernetesDirect
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: K8s Production
  identifier: k8s_prod
  orgIdentifier: default
  projectIdentifier: my_project
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: Kubernetes
  type: KubernetesDirect
  spec:
    connectorRef: k8s_connector
    namespace: my-app-prod
    releaseName: release-<+INFRA_KEY_SHORT_ID>
  allowSimultaneousDeployments: false
```

### KubernetesGcp (GKE)
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: GKE Cluster
  identifier: gke_prod
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: Kubernetes
  type: KubernetesGcp
  spec:
    connectorRef: gcp_connector
    cluster: my-gke-cluster
    namespace: my-app
    releaseName: release-<+INFRA_KEY_SHORT_ID>
```

### KubernetesAzure (AKS)
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: AKS Cluster
  identifier: aks_prod
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: Kubernetes
  type: KubernetesAzure
  spec:
    connectorRef: azure_connector
    subscriptionId: <subscription_id>
    resourceGroup: my-rg
    cluster: my-aks-cluster
    namespace: my-app
    releaseName: release-<+INFRA_KEY_SHORT_ID>
```

### ECS
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: ECS Fargate
  identifier: ecs_prod
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: ECS
  type: ECS
  spec:
    connectorRef: aws_connector
    region: us-east-1
    cluster: my-ecs-cluster
```

### ServerlessAwsLambda
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: Lambda
  identifier: lambda_prod
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: ServerlessAwsLambda
  type: ServerlessAwsLambda
  spec:
    connectorRef: aws_connector
    region: us-east-1
    stage: prod
```

### AzureWebApp
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: Azure Web App
  identifier: azure_webapp_prod
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: AzureWebApp
  type: AzureWebApp
  spec:
    connectorRef: azure_connector
    subscriptionId: <subscription_id>
    resourceGroup: my-rg
```

### Asg (Auto Scaling Group)
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: ASG Production
  identifier: asg_prod
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: Asg
  type: Asg
  spec:
    connectorRef: aws_connector
    region: us-east-1
```

### GoogleCloudFunctions
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: Cloud Functions
  identifier: gcf_prod
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: GoogleCloudFunctions
  type: GoogleCloudFunctions
  spec:
    connectorRef: gcp_connector
    region: us-central1
    project: my-gcp-project
```

### Pdc (Physical Data Center)
```yaml
infrastructureDefinition:
  name: On-Prem Servers
  identifier: pdc_prod
  environmentRef: prod
  deploymentType: Ssh
  type: Pdc
  spec:
    connectorRef: pdc_connector
    hosts:
      - host1.example.com
      - host2.example.com
```

## Creating via MCP

```
Call MCP tool: harness_create
Parameters:
  resource_type: "infrastructure"
  org_id: "<organization>"
  project_id: "<project>"
  body: <infrastructure YAML>
```

## Examples

- "Create a K8s infrastructure for prod" - KubernetesDirect with prod namespace
- "Set up GKE infrastructure" - KubernetesGcp with GCP connector
- "Create ECS Fargate infrastructure" - ECS type with AWS connector
- "Create Azure Web App infrastructure" - AzureWebApp type with subscription and resource group
- "Set up on-prem infrastructure" - Pdc type with host list for SSH deployments

## Performance Notes

- Verify the referenced connector and environment exist before creating the infrastructure definition.
- Ensure namespace and cluster names are accurate — typos will cause deployment failures.
- Use `<+INFRA_KEY_SHORT_ID>` in releaseName to guarantee uniqueness across deployments.

## Troubleshooting

- `CONNECTOR_NOT_FOUND` - Create the cloud/K8s connector first
- `ENVIRONMENT_NOT_FOUND` - Create the environment first
- `releaseName` must be unique per deployment; use `<+INFRA_KEY_SHORT_ID>`
- `deploymentType` must match the service definition's type (e.g., Kubernetes service needs KubernetesDirect infra)
- `allowSimultaneousDeployments: false` is the default; set to `true` only if concurrent deploys are safe
