terraform-git-commit

Maintained by @goci-io/prp-terraform

This module creates git commits using Terraforms local_file and null_resource. To connect to the git repository a SSH-Key is required. The path to the key file can be specified using ssh_key_file. We also support changing the base_url to the git remote. The default is github.com.

You can use the github-repository module for example to setup a complete repository including an SSH deploy key.

Usage

module "repository" {
  source           = "git::https://github.com/goci-io/terraform-git-commit.git?ref=tags/<latest-version>"
  git_repository   = "goci-repository-setup-example"
  git_organization = "goci-io"
  message          = "[goci] add initial README.md"
  branch           = "test-git-terraform-commits-module"
  changes          = false
  paths            = {
    "example/README.md" = {
      target = "README.md"
      data   = {
        example_var = "Example repository description"
      }
    }
  }
}

There is no need to configure a git provider with Terraform. The git remote is configured via git_base_url and the provided key file located at ssh_key_file. An example commit, created based on the terraform.tfvars, can be viewed here.

Do not put files into a subdirectory called repository as these files will also be checked in as they are and may cause other git errors.
