This project contains several directories of Terraform code to perform the initial configuration of the COOL accounts, such as the "terraform", "users", and "shared-services" accounts. This Terraform code creates and configures the most basic resources needed to build out services and environments in the COOL organization, such as:
- An S3 bucket and a DynamoDB table for Terraform remote shared state.
- Roles that can be assumed by IAM user accounts to Terraform further environments and services.
- An initial set of user accounts so that developers can get started.
Note that all accounts must be bootstrapped. This is because initially there is no IAM role that can be assumed to build out these resources. Therefore for each account you must first apply the Terraform code in the corresponding directory with:
- Using programmatic credentials for AWSAdministratorAccess as obtained for the COOL account from the AWS SSO page.
After this initial apply your desired IAM role will exist, and it will be assumable from your IAM user that exists in the "users" account. Therefore you can apply future changes using your IAM user credentials.
The "terraform" and "users" accounts require even more special attention. The "terraform" account must contain an S3 bucket and a DynamoDB table to support Terraform remote shared state, and the "users" account must contain some IAM user accounts before the other accounts can be bootstrapped. Therefore, in addition to using the programmatic credentials as described above, these two accounts must use local state for the first apply. Then the local state can be migrated to the remote backend hosted in the "terraform" account and future applies can proceed normally.
Note that step-by-step bootstrapping instructions are given in the
account-specific README.md files found in the account
subdirectories.
Running pre-commit requires running terraform init in every
directory that contains Terraform code. In this repository, this
includes each account directory (e.g. audit/, dns/, dynamic/,
etc.)
