Infra Automation by Terraform Accessing Modules from a different Repo — Part8

  • Reading time:9 mins read

Accessing Terraform modules from a separate repository enhances the modularity, reusability, and centralized maintenance of infrastructure code. By linking modules to a primary Terraform directory via HTTPS or SSH, you can ensure that modules are maintained and updated in one location, reducing redundancy and ensuring consistency. It also provides a secure access control mechanism for managing critical infrastructure components. Using this approach promotes scalability and maintainability across various projects. The process can be automated through CI/CD pipelines to ensure a smooth infrastructure deployment.

Infra Automation by Terraform Dynamic Block for Map(Objects) Usecase— Part6

  • Reading time:3 mins read

This discussion demonstrates the use of dynamic blocks in Terraform to create Azure Front Door routing rules. It defines a map of routing rules in the terraform.tfvars file, where each rule includes attributes like accepted protocols, patterns to match, and frontend endpoints. The dynamic block is used to iterate over these routing rules and generate configuration blocks for each rule dynamically. In the case of forwarding rules, another nested dynamic block is used to configure forwarding settings. Finally, the Terraform commands terraform init, terraform plan, and terraform apply are executed to initialize, preview, and apply the configuration to Azure.
