This repository contains the configuration files and scripts to support the infrastructure I use for personal projects.
Terraform environment variables and config
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. I create a file backend-config.tf
in the root directory containing the necessary variables:
access_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
secret_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
Then run terraform init -backend-config=backend-config.tf
when I need to run any Terraform commands. This operation is encapsulated in the tf-init.sh
script.
The Terraform scripts also require some environment variables set:
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
with a .envrc
file at the repository root.
