This component is responsible for provisioning an AWS Transit Gateway hub that acts as a centralized gateway for connecting VPCs from other spoke accounts.

Usage

Stack Level: Regional

Here's an example snippet for how to configure and use this component:

components:
  terraform:
    tgw/hub/defaults:
      metadata:
        type: abstract
        component: tgw/hub
      vars:
        enabled: true
        name: tgw-hub
        expose_eks_sg: false
        tags:
          Team: sre
          Service: tgw-hub

    tgw/hub:
      metadata:
        inherits:
          - tgw/hub/defaults
        component: tgw/hub
      vars:
        connections:
          - account:
              tenant: core
              stage: network
            vpc_component_names:
              - vpc-dev
          - account:
              tenant: core
              stage: artifacts
          - account:
              tenant: core
              stage: auto

              - vpc/data/1
            eks_component_names:
              - eks/cluster
          - account:
              tenant: plat
              stage: staging

              - vpc
              - vpc/data/1
            eks_component_names:
              - eks/cluster
          - account:
              tenant: plat
              stage: prod
            vpc_component_names:
              - vpc
              - vpc/data/1
            eks_component_names:
              - eks/cluster

To provision the Transit Gateway and all related resources, run the following commands:

atmos terraform plan tgw/hub -s <tenant>-<environment>-network
atmos terraform apply tgw/hub -s <tenant>-<environment>-network

Requirements

Name Version
terraform >= 1.0.0
aws >= 4.1

Providers

No providers.

Modules

Name Source Version
account_map cloudposse/stack-config/yaml//modules/remote-state 1.5.0
eks cloudposse/stack-config/yaml//modules/remote-state 1.5.0
iam_roles ../../account-map/modules/iam-roles n/a
tgw_hub cloudposse/transit-gateway/aws 0.11.0
this cloudposse/label/null 0.25.0
vpc cloudposse/stack-config/yaml//modules/remote-state 1.5.0

Resources

No resources.

Inputs

Name Description Type Default Required
account_map_environment_name The name of the environment where account_map is provisioned string "gbl" no
account_map_stage_name The name of the stage where account_map is provisioned string "root" no
account_map_tenant_name The name of the tenant where account_map is provisioned.

If the tenant label is not used, leave this as null.
string null no
additional_tag_map Additional key-value pairs to add to each map in tags_as_list_of_maps. Not added to tags or id.
This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags
and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration.
map(string) {} no
allow_external_principals Set true to allow the TGW to be RAM shared with external principals specified in ram_principals bool false no
attributes ID element. Additional attributes (e.g. workers or cluster) to add to id,
in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the
end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by the delimiter
and treated as a single ID element.
list(string) [] no
connections A list of objects to define each TGW connections.

By default, each connection will look for only the default vpc component.
list(object({
account = object({
stage = string
environment = optional(string, "")
tenant = optional(string, "")
})
vpc_component_names = optional(list(string), ["vpc"])
eks_component_names = optional(list(string), [])
}))
[] no
context Single object for setting entire context at once.
See description of individual variables for details.
Leave string and numeric variables as null to use default value.
Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object,
except for attributes, tags, and additional_tag_map, which are merged.
any
{
"additional_tag_map": {},
"attributes": [],
"delimiter": null,
"descriptor_formats": {},
"enabled": true,
"environment": null,
"id_length_limit": null,
"label_key_case": null,
"label_order": [],
"label_value_case": null,
"labels_as_tags": [
"unset"
],
"name": null,
"namespace": null,
"regex_replace_chars": null,
"stage": null,
"tags": {},
"tenant": null
}
no
delimiter Delimiter to be used between ID elements.
Defaults to - (hyphen). Set to "" to use no delimiter at all.
string null no
descriptor_formats Describe additional descriptors to be output in the descriptors output map.
Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form
{<br/> format = string<br/> labels = list(string)<br/>}
(Type is any so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.)
format is a Terraform format string to be passed to the format() function.
labels is a list of labels, in order, to pass to format() function.
Label values will be normalized before being passed to format() so they will be
identical to how they appear in id.
Default is {} (descriptors output will be empty).
any {} no
enabled Set to false to prevent the module from creating any resources bool null no
environment ID element. Usually used for region e.g. 'uw2', 'us-west-2', OR role 'prod', 'staging', 'dev', 'UAT' string null no
expose_eks_sg Set true to allow EKS clusters to accept traffic from source accounts bool true no
id_length_limit Limit id to this many characters (minimum 6).
Set to 0 for unlimited length.
Set to null for keep the existing setting, which defaults to 0.
Does not affect id_full.
number null no
label_key_case Controls the letter case of the tags keys (label names) for tags generated by this module.
Does not affect keys of tags passed in via the tags input.
Possible values: lower, title, upper.
Default value: title.
string null no
label_order The order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the id.
Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"].
You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present.
list(string) null no
label_value_case Controls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in id,
set as tag values, and output by this module individually.
Does not affect values of tags passed in via the tags input.
Possible values: lower, title, upper and none (no transformation).
Set this to title and set delimiter to "" to yield Pascal Case IDs.
Default value: lower.
string null no
labels_as_tags Set of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the tags output.
Default is to include all labels.
Tags with empty values will not be included in the tags output.
Set to [] to suppress all generated tags.
Notes:
The value of the name tag, if included, will be the id, not the name.
Unlike other null-label inputs, the initial setting of labels_as_tags cannot be
changed in later chained modules. Attempts to change it will be silently ignored.
set(string)
[
"default"
]
no
name ID element. Usually the component or solution name, e.g. 'app' or 'jenkins'.
This is the only ID element not also included as a tag.
The "name" tag is set to the full id string. There is no tag with the value of the name input.
string null no
namespace ID element. Usually an abbreviation of your organization name, e.g. 'eg' or 'cp', to help ensure generated IDs are globally unique string null no
ram_principals A list of AWS account IDs to share the TGW with outside the organization list(string) [] no
regex_replace_chars Terraform regular expression (regex) string.
Characters matching the regex will be removed from the ID elements.
If not set, "/[^a-zA-Z0-9-]/" is used to remove all characters other than hyphens, letters and digits.
string null no
region AWS Region string n/a yes
stage ID element. Usually used to indicate role, e.g. 'prod', 'staging', 'source', 'build', 'test', 'deploy', 'release' string null no
tags Additional tags (e.g. {'BusinessUnit': 'XYZ'}).
Neither the tag keys nor the tag values will be modified by this module.
map(string) {} no
tenant ID element _(Rarely used, not included by default)_. A customer identifier, indicating who this instance of a resource is for string null no

Outputs

πŸ‘½ Use Atmos with Terraform

Cloud Posse uses atmos to easily orchestrate multiple environments using Terraform.
Works with Github Actions, Atlantis, or Spacelift.
