tf_aws_rds

This module is deprecated and terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-rds module published on the Terraform registry should be used instead.

This repository will not have active support any more.

A Terraform Template for RDS

This module makes the following assumptions:

• You want your RDS instance in a VPC
• You have subnets in a VPC for two AZs
• Multi-AZ is optional.

Input Variables

• rds_instance_identifier - Custom name of the DB instance (NOT a database name)
• rds_is_multi_az - Defaults to false. Set to true for a multi-az instance.
• rds_storage_type - Defaults to standard (magnetic)
• rds_iops - "The amount of provisioned IOPS. Setting this implies a storage_type of 'io1', default is 0 if rds storage type is not io1"
• rds_allocated_storage - The number of GBs to allocate. Input must be an integer, e.g. 10
• rds_engine_type - Engine type, such as mysql or postgres
• rds_engine_version - eg. 9.5.4 in case of postgres
• rds_instance_class - instance size, eg. db.t2.micro
• database_name - name of the dabatase
• database_user - user name (admin user)
• database_password - password - must be longer than 8 characters
• db_parameter_group - Defaults to mysql5.6, for postgres postgres9.5
• use_external_parameter_group - Defaults to false, if true use parameter group specified by parameter_group_name instead of a built-in one
• parameter_group_name - name of aws_db_parameter_group to use, if use_external_parameter_group is set
• subnets - List of subnets IDs in a list form, e.g. ["sb-1234567890", "sb-0987654321"]
• database_port - Database port (needed for a security group)
• publicly_accessible - Defaults to false
• private_cidr - List of CIDR netblocks for database security group, e.g. ["10.0.1.0/24", "10.0.2.0/24]
• rds_vpc_id - VPC ID DB will be connected to
• allow_major_version_upgrade - Allow upgrading of major version of database (eg. from Postgres 9.5.x to Postgres 9.6.x), default: false
• auto_minor_version_upgrade - Automatically upgrade minor version of the DB (eg. from Postgres 9.5.3 to Postgres 9.5.4), default: true
• apply_immediately - Specifies whether any database modifications are applied immediately, or during the next maintenance window, default: false
• maintenance_window - The window to perform maintenance in. Syntax: 'ddd:hh24:mi-ddd:hh24:mi' UTC, default: "Mon:03:00-Mon:04:00"
• skip_final_snapshot - if true (default), DB won't be backed up before deletion
• copy_tags_to_snapshot - copy all tags from RDS database to snapshot (default true)
• backup_retention_period - backup retention period in days (default: 0), must be > 0 to enable backups
• backup_window - when to perform DB snapshot, default "22:00-03:00"; can't overlap with maintenance window
• monitoring_interval - To disable collecting Enhanced Monitoring metrics, specify 0. The default is 0. Valid Values: 0, 1, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60.
• tags - A mapping of tags to assign to the DB instance

Outputs

• rds_instance_id - The ID of the RDS instance
• rds_instance_address - The Address of the RDS instance
• subnet_group_id - The ID of the Subnet Group

Usage

You can use these in your terraform template with the following steps.

1.) If you define subnets as follows (it's an example of one might do that)

resource "aws_subnet" "example" {
    count = "${length(var.availability_zones)}"

    vpc_id = "${aws_vpc.public.id}"
    cidr_block = "10.0.${count.index}.0/24"
    map_public_ip_on_launch = true

    availability_zone = "${var.region}${element(var.availability_zones, count.index)}"

    tags {
        Name = "${var.region}${element(var.availability_zones, count.index)}"
    }
}

From availability_zones and region variables defined as follows:

variable "region" {
    type = "string"
    default = "eu-central-1"
}

variable "availability_zones" {
    type = "list"
    default = ["a", "b"]
}

You will also need CIDR:

variable "private_cidr" {
    type = "list"
    default = ["10.0.0.0/16"]
}

2.) Adding a module resource to your template, e.g. main.tf

module "my_rds_instance" {
  source = "github.com/terraform-community-modules/tf_aws_rds"

    # RDS Instance Inputs
    rds_instance_identifier = "${var.rds_instance_identifier}"
    rds_allocated_storage = "${var.rds_allocated_storage}"
    rds_engine_type = "${var.rds_engine_type}"
    rds_instance_class = "${var.rds_instance_class}"
    rds_engine_version = "${var.rds_engine_version}"
    db_parameter_group = "${var.db_parameter_group}"

    database_name = "${var.database_name}"
    database_user = "${var.database_user}"
    database_password = "${var.database_password}"
    database_port = "${var.database_port}"

    # Upgrades
    allow_major_version_upgrade = "${var.allow_major_version_upgrade}"
    auto_minor_version_upgrade  = "${var.auto_minor_version_upgrade}"

    apply_immediately           = "${var.apply_immediately}"
    maintenance_window          = "${var.maintenance_window}"

    # Snapshots and backups
    skip_final_snapshot   = "${var.skip_final_snapshot}"
    copy_tags_to_snapshot = "${var.copy_tags_to_snapshot}"

    # DB Subnet Group Inputs
    subnets = ["${aws_subnet.example.*.id}"] # see above
    rds_vpc_id = "${module.vpc}"
    private_cidr = ["${var.private_cidr}"]

    tags {
        terraform = "true"
        env       = "${terraform.env}"
    }
}
