Terraform format - tips & tricks

#cloud #terraform

Hi All!

As many of us know that terraform is one of the popular Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool/mechanism which is cloud agnostic as well.

We had already seen about the usage of terraform console in my one of the posts.

In today's post we're going to see about terrafor fmt

Some of the times when we do minor change on terraform files, there may alignment issues happen. Even it won't harm the process of deployment but due to disordered format, difficult to read the file(s) by user.

Some/most of us use the below commands typically

  • terraform init
  • terraform plan
  • terraform validate
  • terraform apply

Even though, we play with above main commands, terraform fmt (format) is also an additional command helps to align terraform files.

So hereinafter we will use terraform fmt as the first command in our devops pipeline.

Please look into the below image.

Azure typically has 3 zones per region (and not all regions support zone). Thus, while setting up the environment we really want to pick the right region based on our usecase. Public IP helps to access a resource or an application publicly. Azure offers 2 types of SKU for public IP as below Basic Standard Only Standard SKU gives zone facility. Basic SKU is always non-zonal and this SKU also will be retired 09/2025. Standard public IP can be fell into any of the below category No Zone / Non-Zonal - No availability zone at all Zonal - Our services can be replicated in any one of selected zones from three zones. Zone redundant - Resource will be replicated in all 3 zones. It is opposite of...

Glimpse - Azure function migration from .net6 in-process to .net8 isolated Microsoft/Azure periodically announces the end of support for some services and ask us to migrate to a new version/release when they come up with a robust solution than the deprecated. In this post we are going to see a glimpse/UI configuration change of azure function 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 .𝗻𝗲𝘁𝟲 𝗶𝗻-𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗼 .𝗻𝗲𝘁𝟴 𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱. Here, I'm not going to deep dive about the migration whereas going to see the illustration of changing .net version from UI. For learning, GUI is the best place to start. So, as a dev guy we would prefer azure portal mostly. Consider a scenario that, you're requested to migrate your existing .net6 function app to be migrated .net8 isolated, you would go to settings panel and try to change the version in configuration, but the option would be disabled, it was disabled for me initially. Shocking and Afraid! After some point of ...
