A Terragrunt rapid development tool to simplify overriding the source parameter in a terraform.tfvars file.

Project description

A Terragrunt rapid development tool to simplify overriding the source parameter in a terraform.tfvars file.

Introduction

terragrunt-source is a simple script that parses the source line from the terraform.tfvars file in the current working directory producing a path to a local source tree that can be used by terragrunt during development. The path to the local source tree is looked up in the environment variable TERRAGRUNT_DEFAULT_MODULES_REPO.

This is best illustrated be an example. If you are in a directory that contains a terraform.tfvars file with the following content:

terragrunt = {
  include {
    path = "${find_in_parent_folders()}"
  }

  terraform {
    source = "git::[e-mail]:org/repo.git//lambda?ref=v0.6.2"
  }
}

And if TERRAGRUNT_DEFAULT_MODULES_REPO is set to /usr/src/modules then then we expect the following output:

$ terragrunt-source
/usr/src/modules//lambda

Then we can use terragrunt like so:

$ terragrunt plan --terragrunt-source `terragrunt-source`

Another way this can be run is as follows:

$ TERRAGRUNT_SOURCE=`terragrunt-source` terragrunt plan

Quick start

1. Install terragrunt-source:

   $ pip install terragrunt-source

2. Append the following to your ~/.bashrc:

   export TERRAGRUNT_DEFAULT_MODULES_REPO=/path/to/your/checked/out/code
   
   terragrunt-source() {
       TERRAGRUNT_SOURCE=$($(which terragrunt-source)) terragrunt $@
   }

3. Reload your ~/.bashrc:

   $ source ~/.bashrc

4. Change to a Terragrunt configuration directory:

   $ terragrunt-source plan
