PBS TF Synthetics Module

Installation

Using the Repo Source

Use this URL for the source of the module. See the usage examples below for more details.

github.com/pbs/terraform-aws-synthetics-module?ref=2.0.23

Alternative Installation Methods

More information can be found on these install methods and more in the documentation here.

Usage

Creates a basic CloudWatch Synthetics Canary, along with the accoutrement to utilize it effectively.

Integrate this module like so:

module "synthetics" {
  source = "github.com/pbs/terraform-aws-synthetics-module?ref=2.0.23"

  zip_file = "path/to/file.zip"

  # Tagging Parameters
  organization = var.organization
  environment  = var.environment
  product      = var.product
  repo         = var.repo

  # Optional Parameters
}

Note that either a zip_file or a canary_script_s3_location must be provided to provide code for the canary to run.

An example showing how to use Terraform to generate a canary can be found in the basic example.

Note that this is not advised for most use-cases. data resources in Terraform are assumed to have no side effects (like creating a zip file), and you will run into trouble if you use this approach for frequent canary adjustments.

The recommended workaround for this is to use something external to Terraform (like a bash script or Terragrunt) to handle the zip file creation, and then use Terraform to deploy the canary.

Adding This Version of the Module

If this repo is added as a subtree, then the version of the module should be close to the version shown here:
