• terraform

  507 41,369 9.9 Go

  Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve infrastructure. It is a source-available tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned.

  

Project mention: Cloud Resume Challenge Chunk 2 | dev.to | 2024-05-31

Project mention: Eliminate IPv4 tax on AWS, is it that easy? | dev.to | 2024-05-03

API for IaaC: At least for Pulumi, it appears not all IPv6 settings are configurable. For example, I could not retrieve IPv6 automatically in the same way as IPv4 via Elastic IP, or I could not configure ICMPv6 ACL (a similar issue is reported in the Terraform repository).

  Terraform Pull Request Automation

  

Project mention: OpenTofu 1.7.0 is out with State Encryption, Dynamic Provider-defined Functions | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-30

None of these are a replacement of Terraform Cloud (recently rebranded to HCP Terraform). For example, when you create a PR, it could affect multiple workspaces. The new experimental version of TFC/TFE (I refuse to call it HCP!) implements Stacks, which is something like a workflow, and links one workspace output to other workspace inputs. None of the open-source solutions, including the paid Digger [0], support this - only the paid one, such as Spacelift [1] (which is the closest to TFC if you ask me). Having a monorepo of Terraform is a common design pattern, so, if I change an embedded module, it could trigger changes it many workspaces. As far as I know, Atlantis [2] can't really help in this case.

By the way, the reason I singled-out Spacelift is due to its quality, and the great Terraform provider it has. Scalr [3], for example, has a really low-quality Terraform provider. I extensively use the hashicorp/tfe provider to manage TFC itself.

Project mention: Looking for elegant code bases written in Golang | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-09

Take a look at: https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/wild-workouts-go-ddd-exampl...

(I’m one of the authors.)

This project shows how to apply more complex patterns popular in business applications while staying true to the Go ideas, and not copying them blindly from Java.

In the Go community, you’ll often hear people say „just keep things simple” beats all patterns and is all you need. This may be true if you write a CLI tool or a small library, but if you have a team maintaining a big application, some patterns are super helpful.
