AWS Deployment with Terraform and CodePipeline: Step-by-Step Guide

[@andrewfielden284]

Just what I needed to get a basic pipeline for terraform up and running. Thanks.

[@cloudarchitectrahul]

Glad I could help!

[@andrewfielden284]

@@cloudarchitectrahul If I want to add a plan phase into this pipeline, so I can review and approve what Terraform will do, before it actually deploys, how would I do that, in one pipeline?

I have another video on channel where i have added the approval stage.

Great Job Rahul.. Helpful content actually

CI/CD Pipeline with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Challenge: Demonstrate a robust CI/CD pipeline using IaC principles while adhering to AWS Free Tier limitations. Solution: Use AWS CodeCommit for private code repositories. Employ AWS CodeBuild for building and testing the application. Leverage AWS CodePipeline to orchestrate the CI/CD process. Utilize AWS CloudFormation or AWS SAM for IaC. Integrate with AWS CodeDeploy for deployment to EC2 instances (be mindful of instance costs). Optimize build and test times to minimize costs please make video on this

How to the provider.tf will call my variable.tf because we added provider.tf only in code commit

Why is the script downloads and installs terraform everytime it runs? It is very inefficient when running frequent builds.

[@komalthecoolk]

Because it's serverless, it needs to have that. I'm sure there's a way to workaround that.

This is how I solved this issue - I created a Docker image to install the terraform and pushed this image to my ECR repo. I select this custom image while setting up the container environment for my build project. So my environment is always ready with Terraform installed on it and in the build command I just pass the terraform init then terraform plan/apply/destroy etc. I am new to CI/CD, Docker and containers so feel free to correct me if I am wrong in my approach.
