Terraform

In this HashiQube DevOps lab you will get hands on experience with HashiCorp Terraform.

Terraform is an open-source infrastructure as code software tool created by HashiCorp. It enables users to define and provision a datacenter infrastructure using a high-level configuration language known as Hashicorp Configuration Language, or optionally JSON.

Why Terraform

Provides a high-level abstraction of infrastructure (IaC)
Allows for composition and combination
Supports parallel management of resources (graph, fast)
Separates planning from execution (dry-run)

Because of this flexibility, Terraform can be used to solve many different problems.

Introduction to Terraform

HashiCorp Co-Founder and CTO, Armon Dadgar, explains the basics of Terraform, what it is, and how it works in this informative whiteboard video.

Terraform lifecycle

The Terraform lifecycle consists of the following four phases

terraform init -> terraform plan -> terraform apply -> terraform destroy

Terraform Best Practices

What is the optimal workflow process for Terraform in a large, multi-team enterprise? Watch this whiteboard video by Terraform co-creator Armon Dadgar to find out about the high-scale Terraform best practices. Speaker: Armon Dadgar, Co-Founder & CTO, HashiCorp

Terraform Language

HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL)

Terraform Modules and Providers

Modules build and extend on the resources defined by providers.

Modules	Providers
Container of multiple resources used together	Defines resource types that Terraform manages
Sourced through a registry or local files	Configure a specific infrastructue platform
Consists of .tf and/or .tf.json files	Contains instructions for API interactions
Re-usable Terraform configuration	Written in Go Lanaguage
Built on top of providers	Foundation for modules

terraform plan

Refreshing Terraform state in-memory prior to plan...
The refreshed state will be used to calculate this plan, but will not be
persisted to local or remote state storage.

null_resource.ec2_instance_disk_allocations_indexed["3"]: Refreshing state... [id=8937245650602921629]
null_resource.ec2_instance_disk_allocations_indexed["5"]: Refreshing state... [id=7730763927227710655]

aws_s3_bucket.localstack-s3-bucket: Refreshing state... [id=localstack-s3-bucket]

------------------------------------------------------------------------

An execution plan has been generated and is shown below.
Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  + create

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # aws_s3_bucket.localstack-s3-bucket will be created
  + resource "aws_s3_bucket" "localstack-s3-bucket" {
      + acceleration_status         = (known after apply)
      + acl                         = "public-read"
      + arn                         = (known after apply)
      + bucket                      = "localstack-s3-bucket"
      + bucket_domain_name          = (known after apply)
      + bucket_regional_domain_name = (known after apply)
      + force_destroy               = false
      + hosted_zone_id              = (known after apply)
      + id                          = (known after apply)
      + region                      = (known after apply)
      + request_payer               = (known after apply)
      + website_domain              = (known after apply)
      + website_endpoint            = (known after apply)

      + versioning {
          + enabled    = (known after apply)
          + mfa_delete = (known after apply)
        }
    }

Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: You didn't specify an "-out" parameter to save this plan, so Terraform
can't guarantee that exactly these actions will be performed if
"terraform apply" is subsequently run.

Terraform Cloud

Terraform Cloud is a SaaS that we support—that instead, when you run Terraform you still could run it on your local machine, but now it saves and retrieves the state file from Terraform Cloud—which is running over here.

This simplifies a lot of things. First of all, this is pretty much invisible. It still exists, but we manage it for you. Second of all, we could perform a lot more security on this access. You can see who is accessing your state file, control who accesses the state file, and more.

In addition to that, Terraform Cloud will also version and back up your state file so that you could go back in time and see what your infrastructure looked like in the past—or if something went wrong, you could restore a past version. This is something that's really tricky with a local file because this is a normal file on your computer—you would have to be responsible for this yourself. In Terraform Cloud's case, you could still talk directly to the various cloud providers. That's how Terraform Cloud works today. That's the major benefit that remote state brings for you.

HashiCorp co-founder and CTO Mitchell Hashimoto gives a short whiteboard illustration of Terraform Cloud—a new service from HashiCorp that removes the hassle of managing Terraform state files across multiple teams, while also providing a centralized change history and policy governance.

Terraform Cloud collaboration/governance

On top of remote state, there are a number of other features in Terraform Cloud in other tiers that enable things like centralized runs, plan approvals, and more. This changes this behavior, so that instead of talking directly to the cloud providers it talks instead to Terraform Cloud.

Here, instead of talking directly to the cloud providers, what would happen is all your requests to plan and apply would go through Terraform Cloud. Then from here—would then go to the cloud providers. As I said, this is optional. You could use the state storage and talk directly to the cloud providers or you could add this on and use this in the middle.

The benefit is you have a full history here of all the runs that have ever happened. Terraform ensures that only one run happens at a time—and you can get approvals. So, if Alice submits a plan to change infrastructure, Bob has to approve it before it goes through.

You can see how having a SaaS around Terraform can simplify and hide a lot of internal details that are difficult to do with Terraform alone. Broadly, the theme around this is collaboration.

Terraform on your computer—by itself—is a great, powerful tool. But it makes it really hard as soon as you're working with a team or with many people. You can do it. There are ways to coordinate this, but we're introducing Terraform Cloud to make this easy and automatic, and idiomatic in terms of how it should work across all Terraform users.

This makes it clean to have access control here, access control here, history—and you still keep the same Terraform workflow. It's still terraform plan, terraform apply, just like you would here. It will automatically use Terraform Cloud in the backend.

Terraform Enterprise

https://www.terraform.io/docs/enterprise/index.html

Terraform Enterprise is our self-hosted distribution of Terraform Cloud. It offers enterprises a private instance of the Terraform Cloud application, with no resource limits and with additional enterprise-grade architectural features like audit logging and SAML single sign-on.

Terraform Cloud is an application that helps teams use Terraform together. It manages Terraform runs in a consistent and reliable environment, and includes easy access to shared state and secret data, access controls for approving changes to infrastructure, a private registry for sharing Terraform modules, detailed policy controls for governing the contents of Terraform configurations, and more.

For independent teams and small to medium-sized businesses, Terraform Cloud is also available as a hosted service at https://app.terraform.io.

Make sure you get a Terraform Licence file and place it in hashicorp directory e.g hashicorp/ptfe-license.rli

When you run vagrant up --provision-with terraform-enterprise system logs and docker logs will be followed, the output will be in read, don't worry. This is for status output, the installation takes a while. The output will end when Terraform Enterprise is ready.

Once done, you will see ++++ To finish the installation go to http://10.9.99.10:8800

Terraform Development Environment

https://medium.com/@riaan.nolan/top-gun-terraform-development-environment-60ac00d49577

As a Hashicorp Certified Terraform Instructor, I get asked a lot of questions from beginners, and I decided to put together a “Best in Class” post with recommendations for Old and New Terraform Developers.

In this post we’ll cover, VSCode’s Dev/Remote containers for a portable (can run on your developers laptops, can run as a build agent, will run on Grannie’s laptop, God bless her soul ❤) all-in-code developer setup.

We’ll cover, TFEnv, TGEnv, TFSec, Terraform Docs, Terraform Format, TFLint, Terraform Validate, Terraform Plan, Pre Commit amongst other

This post is a Buffet, you can pick what you want to eat or try everything, it’s up to you, Bon Appétit!

You can find all the code, ready to use here: https://github.com/star3am/terraform-modules-library

Terraform Modules Library

This repository forms the basis of my own personal implimentation of a Terraform Modules Library.

It's made up of pre-coded modules to get you started quickly.

It also uses tools, such as TFEnv, Terraform Docs, Linters, VSCode's Dev / Remote containers and many more to provide effectively a Terraform / DevOps engineer development lab to develop and test Terraform Modules.

You are most welcome and in fact encouraged to contribute back to this repository.

Demo

A quick video walk through demo of this solution

Instructions

Now you need to Authenticate to your Clouds, see: Authenticating below.

Authenticating

Somewhere someone or something has to authenticate against the clouds, the pipeline will take care of this for you, however if you are developing locally, you need to take care of this yourself.

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=
export AWS_REGION=

export GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS=

export ARM_CLIENT_ID=
export ARM_CLIENT_SECRET=
export ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=
export ARM_TENANT_ID=

Example output

When you run ./run.sh you will get the following output

Terraform has created a lock file .terraform.lock.hcl to record the provider
selections it made above. Include this file in your version control repository
so that Terraform can guarantee to make the same selections by default when
you run "terraform init" in the future.

Terraform has been successfully initialized!

You may now begin working with Terraform. Try running "terraform plan" to see
any changes that are required for your infrastructure. All Terraform commands
should now work.

If you ever set or change modules or backend configuration for Terraform,
rerun this command to reinitialize your working directory. If you forget, other
commands will detect it and remind you to do so if necessary.

so that Terraform can guarantee to make the same selections by default when
you run "terraform init" in the future.

Terraform has been successfully initialized!

You may now begin working with Terraform. Try running "terraform plan" to see
any changes that are required for your infrastructure. All Terraform commands
should now work.

If you ever set or change modules or backend configuration for Terraform,
rerun this command to reinitialize your working directory. If you forget, other
commands will detect it and remind you to do so if necessary.
data.azurerm_subscription.module: Reading...
data.azurerm_subscription.module: Read complete after 0s [id=/subscriptions/b6a8efd1-471a-49ed-9835-fa8731a5e9fa]

Terraform used the selected providers to generate the following execution
plan. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  + create

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # azurerm_resource_group.module will be created
  + resource "azurerm_resource_group" "module" {
      + id       = (known after apply)
      + location = "australiaeast"
      + name     = "Pay-As-You-Go-rg"
      + tags     = {
          + "Module" = "resource-group"
        }
    }

Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

Changes to Outputs:
  + id = (known after apply)

─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Note: You didn't use the -out option to save this plan, so Terraform can't
guarantee to take exactly these actions if you run "terraform apply" now.

Contributing

Adding/Changing a Module

Create a new git branch e.g. feature/xxxxxx
Either cd into the module folder and make the changes e.g. modules/debug/ or create a new module.
Run terraform init to install providers for the module
Run terraform fmt -check -recursive to format any changes.
If format is successful run terraform validate
If validate is successful run terraform plan

Testing

To test a Terraform module, use a test module (module/xxxxxx/test/)
When test module is ready for a Terraform module, run run.sh to check the result

Debugging

At some stage of the game you will need to debug something, this setup, automates away a lot of toil, but with these automation and abstraction comes a lack of visibility.

Make make -dn docs use the -dn flag for make

FAQs

Why are You using a Mono Repo? I try to avoid code duplication and as a small team, to avoid this developers commit hell cycle, I opted for a Mono repo, you are welcome to split it up. You can always use the individual modules using the Terraform Source source = "git::[email protected]:star3am/terraform-modules-library.git//aws/modules/debug?ref=main"

Gotchas

You will see in the terragrunt.hcl files where I detect the module source I post-fix it with //. see this bug: gruntwork-io/terragrunt#1675
fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/app' To add an exception for this directory see this page: https://www.kenmuse.com/blog/avoiding-dubious-ownership-in-dev-containers/
I've not found a way to force no-cache so sometimes you need to say ReBuild and ReOpen in Container.

Thanks!

Many thanks goes to the team at Gruntwork https://gruntwork.io/ for their amazing effort and for selflessly sharing their code in the great spirit of Open Source. In fact https://github.com/gruntwork-io/terragrunt-infrastructure-modules-example inspired this repo and set the foundation for this repo.
