Terraform Failed To Download Module Gitlab
Neomi Schlensker
Currently having an issue pulling my own module from a gitlab terraform module registry. Gone through the gitlab documentation but still struggling. Gone with the instructions and using the following config:
I have a repo for terraform module registry, I followed this doc
Terraform module registry GitLab to upload modules to registry. It seems working fine, and I can see all the modules I uploaded in
-gitlab.com/group/sub-group/terraform-modules/-/infrastructure_registry
I have a brand-new local Terraform project that I have just cloned from gitlab. I have not made any changes to the code, but when I run terraform init I get the following error, repeated for every module in the project:
I need help with sourcing terraform modules from a gitlab repository with multiple modules in it like ec2, vpc etc. I have two branches in module repo - develop and main. I tried all the ways below but got an error. I am sourcing something like below. I need ssh only, not https.
You can find this directory as one of the subdirectories under .terraform/modules, which is the directory where current versions of Terraform cache module packages retrieved over the network. For a git:: source, that directory should itself be a git work tree that you can run normal Git commands in. (Terraform itself is also running normal Git commands in that directory, including the one that returned this error.)
Here, the to-be-kept-secret parameter aws_ssm_parameter is leaked via the http data source. We can detect such a leak with checkov. Running checkov to check the above terraform code will warn us with a failed check:
[!NOTE]ExperimentalBy setting the env var CHECKOV_EXPERIMENTAL_TERRAFORM_MANAGED_MODULES=True instead of downloading external modules checkov will use the ones already downloaded by Terraform stored in .terraform folder. This only works for scans of the root folder, where also terraform init was executed.
init-from-module and init: Terragrunt has two stages of initialization: one is to download remoteconfigurations using go-getter; the otheris Auto-Init, which configures the backend and downloadsprovider plugins and modules. If you wish to run a hook when Terragrunt is using go-getter to download remoteconfigurations, use init-from-module for the command. If you wish to execute a hook when Terragrunt is usingterraform init for Auto-Init, use init for the command. For example, an after_hook for the commandinit-from-module will run after terragrunt clones the module, while an after_hook for the command init will runafter terragrunt runs terraform init on the cloned module.
The generate block can be used to arbitrarily generate a file in the terragrunt working directory (where terraformis called). This can be used to generate common terraform configurations that are shared across multiple terraformmodules. For example, you can use generate to generate the provider blocks in a consistent fashion by defining agenerate block in the parent terragrunt config.
After you run the terraform destroy command, also run additional clean-upprocedures to remove any resources that Terraform failed to destroy. Do this bydeleting any projects used for test execution or by using a tool like theproject_cleanup module.
With terraform Cloud and terraform Enterprise you are enabled now to us your custom modules in a way that all in your organization or team can use the same building blocks and must not reinvent all functionality. But that also takes more into account that those modules always do what they are used for - you should have your tests in place to ensure the behaviour of the module over time. At this point, Terratest comes on the stage.
So You should take into account that all tests should always refer to a test account in your cloud provider(s) so that no production code - or even staging environments are not influenced by your development efforts of a terraform module which is under test with Terratest!
In the following code snippet is a gitlab pipeline which also validates and lints the containing code. In this example also shellcheck is running for some scripts in the module and the terraform is linted by tflint.The testing is done within an advanced version using mage by the following magefile.
I am trying to setup terraform with modules and when doing terraform init after creating a module I have ran into an issue where I am told it does not exist or can't be read. I've checked many times and tried many paths to it and it does exist where I think it does.
terraform_docs - This tool auto-generates readme files containing information on modules, providers and resources that gives users an easy-to-read and central page that can be digested faster than reading the code.
It might be possible that you are in the middle of running terraform plan or terraform apply command butunfortunately, you ended up with the error - Error locking state: Error acquiring the state lock: ConditionalCheckFailedException: The conditional request failed.
Here is one of the same errors which I have faced while I was working on one of my terraform projects for savingterraform state using DynamoDB
Error acquiring the state lock: ConditionalCheckFailedException: The conditional request failed
Terraform is a popular tool used by DevOps engineers for codifying cloud resources. One of the foundational commands at the heart of Terraform is terraform init. This command is what sets the stage for all the subsequent operations that you perform with Terraform. It prepares a new or existing directory for Terraform usage by creating initial files, loading any remote state, downloading modules, and installing provider plugins.
The .terraform directory is a crucial component in a Terraform workspace, which gets created when you run the terraform init command. This directory contains data that Terraform generates as it initializes the workspace, including provider plugins and modules. For instance, the provider plugins that Terraform downloads based on the provider blocks in your configuration are stored in this directory. Similarly, if your configuration uses modules from remote sources, Terraform downloads them into the .terraform directory.
Let's now refactor our code to create a module for the users. The point of this example is to show you the need to re-run the terraform init command to initialize the module. Any time you add a provider or module, you will need to re-run the terraform init command.
Let's see how to override the .terraform.lock.hcl file to upgrade or downgrade a provider or child modules version. In our example, we'll upgrade the Vault provider version from 3.17.0 to 3.18.0.
When implementing automation, it's a recommended best practice to initiate the process with a terraform init stage. This ensures that all modules, providers, and the backend are consistently updated in accordance with the specifications in your configuration files.
Likewise, if your configuration uses modules, terraform init will automatically download them. You can also control this behavior using the -get option (default: true). This option controls whether Terraform will download and install modules in the "root module". The "root module" is the directory containing the Terraform configuration files where the terraform init command is run. When -get=true, Terraform will download and install modules referenced by the root module. If -get=false, Terraform will not download or install root modules. If there are required modules that aren't downloaded, Terraform operations may fail.
