TL;DR

1. install pre-commit
2. configure pre-commit: pre-commit install
3. install required tools
   • tflint
   • tfsec
   • terraform-docs
   • golang (for macos you can use brew)
   • coreutils

Write code according to I&A module standards

Module Documentation

Do not manually update README.md. terraform-docs is used to generate README files. For any instructions an content, please update .header.md then simply run terraform-docs ./ or allow the pre-commit to do so.

Terratest

Please include tests to validate your examples/<> root modules, at a minimum. This can be accomplished with usually only slight modifications to the boilerplate test provided in this template

Configure and run Terratest

1. Install

   golang (for macos you can use brew)

2. Change directory into the test folder.

   cd test

3. Initialize your test

   go mod init github.com/[github org]/[repository]

   go mod init github.com/aws-ia/terraform-aws-vpc

4. Run tidy

   git mod tidy

5. Install Terratest

   go get github.com/gruntwork-io/terratest/modules/terraform

6. Run test (You can have multiple test files).

   • Run all tests

     go test

   • Run a specific test with a timeout

     go test -run examples_basic_test.go -timeout 45m

Continuous Integration

The I&A team uses AWS CodeBuild to perform continuous integration (CI) within the organization. Our CI uses the a repo's .pre-commit-config.yaml file as well as some other checks. All PRs with other CI will be rejected. See our FAQ for more details.
