Terraform Aws Ssm Parameter Store Versions Save

what and why

Change all references to git.io/build-harness into cloudposse.tools/build-harness, since git.io redirects will stop working on April 29th, 2022.

References

• DEV-143

what

• Update outputs to include the name and values of the ignore_value_changes parameters.

why

• Output arguments for the ignore_value_changes resource

what

• Add an alternative parameter resource with a lifecycle that ignores value changes.
• Also add the new data_type argument to the aws_ssm_parameter resource.

why

• Allow the user to create parameters that can be modified by another tool in the future without affecting terraform apply, preventing errors like this:

Change default parameter type from SecretString to SecureString.

SecretString is a term from AWS Secrets Manager, and is not valid with SSM Parameter Store. The corresponding type is "SecureString".

what

• Use context for tags

why

• Fixes an issue if only context is passed in, it won't tag it unless var.tags is also passed in. This change will use context if it's available.

references

N/A

what

• Template provider removed from versions.tf

why

• This provider is not used and deprecated. On ARM platforms Terraform raises an exception (because it does not have a build for it)

references

• https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/template/latest/docs

what

• Fix var.parameter_read not honoring var.enabled.
• Overhaul tests to properly test for map output.
• Overhaul tests to have a parallel test for a disabled context.
• Test that module outputs work as expected in both enabled and disabled contexts.
• Misc: Fix README snippets.
• Misc: Bump module in examples/complete.

why

• This module will still read from SSM Parameter Store even if var.enabled is false.
• Tests are not sufficient to test for the use case described above.
• Tests do not properly test map output.
• Misc: README is out of date (git source instead of Terraform registry).

references

• N/A

what

• Run make github/init.

why

• Updates context.tf to that of 0.25.0, which adds supports for the tenant label.
• Updates GHA-workflow-related files to their latest distribution.
• This repository has been inactive for 60 days, so auto-context was disabled.

references

• https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-null-label/releases/tag/0.25.0

what

• Mark sensitive outputs as sensitive

why

• Required for compatibility with Terraform 0.14 and later

references

• Closes #23
• Supersedes and closes #28

what

• Fix allowed pattern default value

why

• New aws provider does not allow empty string as allowed pattern
