This is an example project to provide all the scaffolding for a typical well-built Cloud Posse
Terraform module for AWS resources. It's a template repository you can
use when creating new repositories. This is not a useful module by itself.

## Introduction

This is an introduction.




## Usage

For a complete example, see [examples/complete](examples/complete).

For automated tests of the complete example using [bats](https://github.com/bats-core/bats-core) and [Terratest](https://github.com/gruntwork-io/terratest)
(which tests and deploys the example on AWS), see [test](test).

```hcl
# Create a standard label resource. See [null-label](https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-null-label/#terraform-null-label--)
module "label" {
source = "cloudposse/label/null"
# Cloud Posse recommends pinning every module to a specific version, though usually you want to use the current one
# version = "x.x.x"
namespace = "eg"
name = "example"
}
module "example" {
source = "cloudposse/*****/aws"
# Cloud Posse recommends pinning every module to a specific version
# version = "x.x.x"
example = "Hello world!"
context = module.label.this
}
```

> [!IMPORTANT]
> In Cloud Posse's examples, we avoid pinning modules to specific versions to prevent discrepancies between the documentation
> and the latest released versions. However, for your own projects, we strongly advise pinning each module to the exact version
> you're using. This practice ensures the stability of your infrastructure. Additionally, we recommend implementing a systematic
> approach for updating versions to avoid unexpected changes.



## Quick Start

1. Use this repo as a template for a new repo.
2. Check out the new repo and create a `git` branch to work on.
3. Replace the Terraform code at the root of the repo with the code you want to publish.
4. Replace the code in `examples/complete` with Terraform code that will make a good automated test.
Please keep `context.tf` and `fixtures.us-east-2.tfvars` in place and change only `name`, leaving
`region`, `namespace`, `environment`, and `stage` as is. Provide outputs that will be useful for testing.
5. Update `test/src/examples_complete_test.go` to verify the outputs of running `terraform apply` on `examples/complete`.
6. Run `make github/init` to update the repo with the current Cloud Posse framework files (e.g. `CODEOWNERS`).
7. Run `make pr/auto-format` to format the Terraform code and generate documentation.
8. Commit everything to `git` and open your first PR on the new repo.
Here's how to get started...

## Inputs

| Name | Description | Type | Default | Required |
|------|-------------|------|---------|:--------:|
| <a name="input_additional_tag_map"></a> [additional\_tag\_map](#input\_additional\_tag\_map) | Additional key-value pairs to add to each map in `tags_as_list_of_maps`. Not added to `tags` or `id`.<br>This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags<br>and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration. | `map(string)` | `{}` | no |
| <a name="input_attributes"></a> [attributes](#input\_attributes) | ID element. Additional attributes (e.g. `workers` or `cluster`) to add to `id`,<br>in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the<br>end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by the `delimiter`<br>and treated as a single ID element. | `list(string)` | `[]` | no |
| <a name="input_context"></a> [context](#input\_context) | Single object for setting entire context at once.<br>See description of individual variables for details.<br>Leave string and numeric variables as `null` to use default value.<br>Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object,<br>except for attributes, tags, and additional\_tag\_map, which are merged. | `any` | <pre>{<br> "additional_tag_map": {},<br> "attributes": [],<br> "delimiter": null,<br> "descriptor_formats": {},<br> "enabled": true,<br> "environment": null,<br> "id_length_limit": null,<br> "label_key_case": null,<br> "label_order": [],<br> "label_value_case": null,<br> "labels_as_tags": [<br> "unset"<br> ],<br> "name": null,<br> "namespace": null,<br> "regex_replace_chars": null,<br> "stage": null,<br> "tags": {},<br> "tenant": null<br>}</pre> | no |
| <a name="input_delimiter"></a> [delimiter](#input\_delimiter) | Delimiter to be used between ID elements.<br>Defaults to `-` (hyphen). Set to `""` to use no delimiter at all. | `string` | `null` | no |
| <a name="input_descriptor_formats"></a> [descriptor\_formats](#input\_descriptor\_formats) | Describe additional descriptors to be output in the `descriptors` output map.<br>Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form<br>`{<br> format = string<br> labels = list(string)<br>}`<br>(Type is `any` so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.)<br>`format` is a Terraform format string to be passed to the `format()` function.<br>`labels` is a list of labels, in order, to pass to `format()` function.<br>Label values will be normalized before being passed to `format()` so they will be<br>identical to how they appear in `id`.<br>Default is `{}` (`descriptors` output will be empty). | `any` | `{}` | no |
| <a name="input_enabled"></a> [enabled](#input\_enabled) | Set to false to prevent the module from creating any resources | `bool` | `null` | no |
| <a name="input_environment"></a> [environment](#input\_environment) | ID element. Usually used for region e.g. 'uw2', 'us-west-2', OR role 'prod', 'staging', 'dev', 'UAT' | `string` | `null` | no |
| <a name="input_example"></a> [example](#input\_example) | Example variable | `string` | `"hello world"` | no |
| <a name="input_id_length_limit"></a> [id\_length\_limit](#input\_id\_length\_limit) | Limit `id` to this many characters (minimum 6).<br>Set to `0` for unlimited length.<br>Set to `null` for keep the existing setting, which defaults to `0`.<br>Does not affect `id_full`. | `number` | `null` | no |
| <a name="input_label_key_case"></a> [label\_key\_case](#input\_label\_key\_case) | Controls the letter case of the `tags` keys (label names) for tags generated by this module.<br>Does not affect keys of tags passed in via the `tags` input.<br>Possible values: `lower`, `title`, `upper`.<br>Default value: `title`. | `string` | `null` | no |
| <a name="input_label_order"></a> [label\_order](#input\_label\_order) | The order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the `id`.<br>Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"].<br>You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present. | `list(string)` | `null` | no |
| <a name="input_label_value_case"></a> [label\_value\_case](#input\_label\_value\_case) | Controls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in `id`,<br>set as tag values, and output by this module individually.<br>Does not affect values of tags passed in via the `tags` input.<br>Possible values: `lower`, `title`, `upper` and `none` (no transformation).<br>Set this to `title` and set `delimiter` to `""` to yield Pascal Case IDs.<br>Default value: `lower`. | `string` | `null` | no |

Attempts to change it will be silently ignored. | `set(string)` | <pre>[<br> "default"<br>]</pre> | no |
| <a name="input_name"></a> [name](#input\_name) | ID element. Usually the component or solution name, e.g. 'app' or 'jenkins'.<br>This is the only ID element not also included as a `tag`.<br>The "name" tag is set to the full `id` string. There is no tag with the value of the `name` input. | `string` | `null` | no |
