Terraform Execution Flow

When running a job inside the executor component the following logic is used:

• A folder to execute the job will be created using the organization id and workspace id:

  • /home/cnb/.terraform-spring-boot/executor/{{ORGANIZATION_ID}}//{{WORKSPACE_ID}}

• The executor component will initially clone the workspace to the following folder:

  • /home/cnb/.terraform-spring-boot/executor/{{ORGANIZATION_ID}}//{{WORKSPACE_ID}}/.originRepository

• All the files inside ".originalRepository" are moved to {{ORGANIZATION_ID}}//{{WORKSPACE_ID}} folder from previous step.

• Te executor component will create the extension folders where you can store BASH or GROOVY extensions:

  • /home/cnb/.terraform-spring-boot/executor/{{ORGANIZATION_ID}}/{{WORKSPACE_ID}}/.terrakube/toolsRepository

    • By default it will clone the repository "https://github.com/AzBuilder/terrakube-extensions", this can be change by using TerrakubeToolsRepository and TerrakubeToolsBranch environment variables.

  • The executor component will scan the extension folder and will add all the "sh" files to the linux path when using BASH commands.

  • The executor component will scan the extension folder and will add all the ".groovy" files as Groovy dependencies dynamical when using GROOVY commands.

    • When using GROOVY extension to download an external tools, the extension can use the following folder /home/cnb/.terraform-spring-boot/executor/{{ORGANIZATION_ID}}/{{WORKSPACE_ID}}/.terrakube/tools all the folder inside the "tools" folder are also included in the linux execution PATH

  • By default the executor component will also include all the "sh" from the imported workspace files

• Once the executor component has all the necesarry information it will execute the selected template flow for the job.

• When the job execution is completed the current {{ORGANIZATION_ID}}/{{WORKSPACE_ID}} is deleted.

An example of how to import external tools can be found in the Terratag Groovy extension

https://github.com/AzBuilder/terrakube-extensions/tree/main/groovy/TerraTag

This extension download the terratag binary and expose the binary to be used inside the linux PATH when using BASH commands.

When using the following template:

flow:
  - type: "terraformPlan"
    name: "Plan"
    step: 100
    commands:
      - runtime: "GROOVY"
        priority: 100
        before: true
        script: |
          import TerraTag
          new TerraTag().loadTool(
            "$workingDirectory",
            "$bashToolsDirectory",
            "0.1.30")
          "Terratag download completed"
      - runtime: "BASH"
        priority: 200
        before: true
        script: |
          helloWorld.sh

The following directory structure will be generating when using a workspace with the workspace with "https://github.com/AzBuilder/terrakube-docker-compose"
