Deploy Infrastructure using CDK for Terraform with Go

• terraform-cdk

  104 4,720 9.9 TypeScript

  Define infrastructure resources using programming constructs and provision them using HashiCorp Terraform

  

Wouldn't it be nice to declare terraform modules with one of your favourite programming languages? Additionally, you will have much more control over generated resources, while with plain Terraform, you are bound by the HCL language constraint. CDK for Terraform (cdktf) is an experimental attempt at solveing this problem.

• terraform-exec

  9 625 7.7 Go

  Terraform CLI commands via Go.

  

We will utilize this nice wrapper hashicorp/terraform-exec to apply the synthesized Terraform module from Go.

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com sponsored

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• hcl

  40 5,060 8.2 Go

  HCL is the HashiCorp configuration language.

  

As I mentioned earlier, HCL and JSON are mostly interchangeable, so we can also handcraft the JSON to represent the Terraform module using any programming language or utilize the HCL parser.

• Pulumi

  178 19,705 9.9 Go

  Pulumi - Infrastructure as Code in any programming language. Build infrastructure intuitively on any cloud using familiar languages 🚀

  

We used cdktf in Go to implement the project. Why Go and Terraform? Go is the go-to language at Sourcegraph and Terraform is something we use everyday (hence we did not go with things like pulumi).

• jsii

  33 2,553 9.4 TypeScript

  jsii allows code in any language to naturally interact with JavaScript classes. It is the technology that enables the AWS Cloud Development Kit to deliver polyglot libraries from a single codebase!

  

You may notice the usage of jsii everywhere in the module/stack we defined earlier, and it is required for the Go library to interact with the underlying node runtime.

• WorkOS

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
