  • The main steps I follow when kicking off Node.js projects

    Terraform. I use it to manage infrastructure. It simplifies many things if at least a few people work on a project. As the project grows, it becomes massive, and maybe for better state management, you will need tools like Terragrunt to keep infrastructure-related code simple. If you use AWS as a cloud provider, you can also use AWS CDK. It’s a nice tool with Typescript support, but it’s available only for AWS, and if you need something from a different cloud infrastructure, the code will be much more complex than Terraform. That’s why I prefer the Terraform even for AWS.

    You need to ensure your Action code is built before you attempt a terrform plan or apply. In our case we are using terragrunt which has a helpful before_hook, setup in the terragrunt.hcl file as follows:
  • Show HN: Burrow is a globally distributed, serverless HTTP proxy
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 27 Jul 2024
    https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/19932

    My understanding is that people that have this as a first-class concern use something like Terragrunt to dynamically generate the HCL as needed.

    https://terragrunt.gruntwork.io/

    For Burrow here, I was was focused on shipping something and didn't want to spend time on generating that code just yet. But the project has gotten some attention so if this is a recurring request I'll probably do it.

    Note that I intentionally chose the 17 AWS regions that are default enabled in every new AWS account, so it should only be if you want to customize it that this becomes important.

    A Cloudformation Stacks based deployment to achieve multi-region would be another good (and perhaps better) option here. I could add that to the Makefile, with inspiration from your link there.

    Terragrunt started to use OpenTofu as the default IAC tool, however, this was not a major release; instead, it was provided as a patch and users didn't expect to have any differences in the behavior. The original problem may be found here.
