Terraform Deployment

This terraform chart highlights the structure I like to use for my deployments.

You can read more about it in my blog post here.

Use the Deployment (locally)

1. clone the repo
2. fill out empty variables in the env_dev.tfvars file
3. create two files:

env_dev_backend.sec.tfvars

storage_account_name = ""
resource_group_name  = ""
container_name       = "terraform"
key                  = ""
access_key           = ""

key is the name of the state-file within the backend - for instance: env_dev.tfstate

env_dev.sec.tfvars

client_id     = ""
client_secret = ""

# deploy
terraform init -reconfigure -input=false -upgrade -backend-config .\env_dev_backend.sec.tfvars

terraform plan -var-file=".\env_dev.tfvars" -var-file=".\env_dev.sec.tfvars" -input=false -out="tfplan"

terraform apply "tfplan"

# destroy
terraform init -reconfigure -input=false -upgrade -backend-config .\env_dev_backend.sec.tfvars

terraform plan -destroy -var-file=".\env_dev.tfvars" -var-file=".\env_dev.sec.tfvars" -input=false -out="tfplan"

terraform apply "tfplan"
