# My personal infrastructure-as-code
This repository contains the configuration files and scripts to support the infrastructure I use for personal projects.
## Terraform environment variables and config
2020-12-04 14:23:36 +00:00
Terraform state is stored in a DigitalOcean Spaces bucket. In order to access the bucket, the Terraform backend configuration needs the `access_key` and `secret_key` variables set. These variables are the DigitalOcean Spaces access key and secret key, respectively, which are generated from the DigitalOcean Spaces UI. I'm passing them to Terraform via the `-backend-config` `terraform init` option and pulling their values from my password manager. This operation is encapsulated in the `tf-init.sh` script.
The Terraform scripts also require some environment variables set:
```bash
export TF_VAR_do_token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
export TF_VAR_spaces_access_id=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
export TF_VAR_spaces_secret_key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
```
The `do_token` is the DigitalOcean API token, generated from the DigitalOcean API console UI, and the `spaces_access_id` and `spaces_secret_key` are the same Spaces configuration values as above. I'm setting these variables via [`direnv`](https://direnv.net/) with a `.envrc` file at the repository root.
