terraform
Modules are deprecated and will be removed in version
0.14
. Please use action-based configuration instead. See the 0.12 to Bonsai migration guide for details.Resolves a Terraform stack and either applies it automatically (if
autoApply: true
) or warns when the stack resources are not up-to-date.Note: It is not recommended to set
autoApply
to true
for any production or shared environments, since this may result in accidental or conflicting changes to the stack. Instead, it is recommended to manually plan and apply using the provided plugin commands. Run garden plugins terraform
for details.Stack outputs are made available as service outputs, that can be referenced by other modules under
${runtime.services.<module-name>.outputs.<key>}
. You can template in those values as e.g. command arguments or environment variables for other services.Note that you can also declare a Terraform root in the
terraform
provider configuration by setting the initRoot
parameter. This may be preferable if you need the outputs of the Terraform stack to be available to other provider configurations, e.g. if you spin up an environment with the Terraform provider, and then use outputs from that to configure another provider or other modules via ${providers.terraform.outputs.<key>}
template strings.Below is the full schema reference. For an introduction to configuring Garden modules, please look at our Configuration guide.
The first section contains the complete YAML schema, and the second section describes each schema key.
terraform
modules also export values that are available in template strings. See the Outputs section below for details.The values in the schema below are the default values.
kind: Module
# The type of this module.
type:
# The name of this module.

# Set this to `true` to disable the module. You can use this with conditional template strings to disable modules
# based on, for example, the current environment or other variables (e.g. `disabled: ${environment.name == "prod"}`).
# This can be handy when you only need certain modules for specific environments, e.g. only for development.
#
# Disabling a module means that any services, tasks and tests contained in it will not be deployed or run. It also
# means that the module is not built _unless_ it is declared as a build dependency by another enabled module (in which
# case building this module is necessary for the dependant to be built).
#
# If you disable the module, and its services, tasks or tests are referenced as _runtime_ dependencies, Garden will
# automatically ignore those dependency declarations. Note however that template strings referencing the module's
# service or task outputs (i.e. runtime outputs) will fail to resolve when the module is disabled, so you need to make
# sure to provide alternate values for those if you're using them, using conditional expressions.

#
# Note that you can also _exclude_ files using the `exclude` field or by placing `.gardenignore` files in your source
# tree, which use the same format as `.gitignore` files. See the [Configuration Files

# specified here take precedence.
variables:
# Specify a path (relative to the module root) to a file containing variables, that we apply on top of the

# The format of the files is determined by the configured file's extension:

# * `.env` - Standard "dotenv" format, as defined by [dotenv](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv#rules).
# * `.yaml`/`.yml` - YAML. The file must consist of a YAML document, which must be a map (dictionary). Keys may
# contain any value type.
# * `.json` - JSON. Must contain a single JSON _object_ (not an array).
#
# _NOTE: The default varfile format will change to YAML in Garden v0.13, since YAML allows for definition of nested
# objects and arrays._
#
# To use different module-level varfiles in different environments, you can template in the environment name
# to the varfile name, e.g. `varfile: "my-module.${environment.name}.env` (this assumes that the corresponding

allowDestroy: false
# If set to true, Garden will automatically run `terraform apply -auto-approve` when the stack is not
