GitHub - Uk1288/terraform-null-label: Terraform Module to define a consistent naming convention by (namespace, stage, name, [attributes])

Terraform module designed to generate consistent names and tags for resources. Use terraform-null-label to implement a strict naming convention.

There are 6 inputs considered "labels" or "ID elements" (because the labels are used to construct the ID):

namespace
tenant
environment
stage
name
attributes

This module generates IDs using the following convention by default: {namespace}-{environment}-{stage}-{name}-{attributes}. However, it is highly configurable. The delimiter (e.g. -) is configurable. Each label item is optional (although you must provide at least one). So if you prefer the term stage to environment and do not need tenant, you can exclude them and the label id will look like {namespace}-{stage}-{name}-{attributes}.

The tenant label was introduced in v0.25.0. To preserve backward compatibility, it is not included by default.
The attributes input is actually a list of strings and {attributes} expands to the list elements joined by the delimiter.
If attributes is excluded but namespace, stage, and environment are included, id will look like {namespace}-{environment}-{stage}-{name}. Excluding attributes is discouraged, though, because attributes are the main way modules modify the ID to ensure uniqueness when provisioning the same resource types.
If you want the label items in a different order, you can specify that, too, with the label_order list.
You can set a maximum length for the id, and the module will create a (probably) unique name that fits within that length. (The module uses a portion of the MD5 hash of the full id to represent the missing part, so there remains a slight chance of name collision.)
You can control the letter case of the generated labels which make up the id using var.label_value_case.
By default, all of the non-empty labels are also exported as tags, whether they appear in the id or not. You can control which labels are exported as tags by setting labels_as_tags to the list of labels you want exported, or the empty list [] if you want no labels exported as tags at all. Tags passed in via the tags variable are always exported, and regardless of settings, empty labels are never exported as tags. You can control the case of the tag names (keys) for the labels using var.label_key_case. Unlike the tags generated from the label inputs, tags passed in via the tags input are not modified.

There is an unfortunate collision over the use of the key name. Cloud Posse uses name in this module to represent the component, such as eks or rds. AWS uses a tag with the key Name to store the full human-friendly identifier of the thing tagged, which this module outputs as id, not name. So when converting input labels to tags, the value of the Name key is set to the module id output, and there is no tag corresponding to the module name output. An empty name label will not prevent the Name tag from being exported.

It's recommended to use one terraform-null-label module for every unique resource of a given resource type. For example, if you have 10 instances, there should be 10 different labels. However, if you have multiple different kinds of resources (e.g. instances, security groups, file systems, and elastic ips), then they can all share the same label assuming they are logically related.

For most purposes, the id output is sufficient to create an ID or label for a resource, and if you want a different ID or a different format, you would instantiate another instance of null-label and configure it accordingly. However, to accomodate situations where you want all the same inputs to generate multiple descriptors, this module provides the descriptors output, which is a map of strings generated according to the format specified by the descriptor_formats input. This feature is intentionally simple and minimally configurable and will not be enhanced to add more features that are already in null-label. See examples/complete/descriptors.tf for examples.

All Cloud Posse Terraform modules use this module to ensure resources can be instantiated multiple times within an account and without conflict.

The Cloud Posse convention is to use labels as follows:

namespace: A short (3-4 letters) abbreviation of the company name, to ensure globally unique IDs for things like S3 buckets
tenant: (Rarely needed) When a company creates a dedicated resource per customer, tenant can be used to identify the customer the resource is dedicated to
environment: A short abbreviation for the AWS region hosting the resource, or gbl for resources like IAM roles that have no region
stage: The name or role of the account the resource is for, such as prod or dev
name: The name of the component that owns the resources, such as eks or rds

NOTE: The null originally referred to the primary Terraform provider used in this module. With Terraform 0.12, this module no longer needs any provider, but the name was kept for continuity.

Releases of this module from 0.23.0 onward only work with Terraform 0.13 or newer.
Releases of this module from 0.12.0 through 0.22.1 support HCL2 and are compatible with Terraform 0.12 or newer.
Releases of this module prior to 0.12.0 are compatible with earlier versions of terraform like Terraform 0.11.

Tip

👽 Use Atmos with Terraform

Cloud Posse uses atmos to easily orchestrate multiple environments using Terraform.
Works with Github Actions, Atlantis, or Spacelift.

Usage

Defaults

Cloud Posse Terraform modules share a common context object that is meant to be passed from module to module. The context object is a single object that contains all the input values for terraform-null-label. However, each input value can also be specified individually by name as a standard Terraform variable, and the value of those variables, when set to something other than null, will override the value in the context object. In order to allow chaining of these objects, where the context object input to one module is transformed and passed on to the next module, all the variables default to null or empty collections. The actual default values used when nothing is explicitly set are described in the documentation below.

For example, the default value of delimiter is shown as null, but if you leave it set to null, terraform-null-label will actually use the default delimiter - (hyphen).

A non-obvious but intentional consequence of this design is that once a module sets a non-default value, future modules in the chain cannot reset the value back to the original default. Instead, the new setting becomes the new default for downstream modules. Also, collections are not overwritten, they are merged, so once a tag is added, it will remain in the tag set and cannot be removed, although its value can be overwritten.

Because the purpose of labels_as_tags is primarily to prevent tags from being generated that would conflict with the AWS provider's default_tags, it is an exception to the rule that variables override the setting in the context object. The value in the context object cannot be changed, so that later modules cannot re-enable a problematic tag.

Simple Example

module "eg_prod_bastion_label" {
  source   = "cloudposse/label/null"
  # Cloud Posse recommends pinning every module to a specific version
  # version = "x.x.x"

  namespace  = "eg"
  stage      = "prod"
  name       = "bastion"
  attributes = ["public"]
  delimiter  = "-"

  tags = {
    "BusinessUnit" = "XYZ",
    "Snapshot"     = "true"
  }
}

This will create an id with the value of eg-prod-bastion-public because when generating id, the default order is namespace, environment, stage, name, attributes (you can override it by using the label_order variable, see Advanced Example 3).

Now reference the label when creating an instance:

resource "aws_instance" "eg_prod_bastion_public" {
  instance_type = "t1.micro"
  tags          = module.eg_prod_bastion_label.tags
}

Or define a security group:

resource "aws_security_group" "eg_prod_bastion_public" {
  vpc_id = var.vpc_id
  name   = module.eg_prod_bastion_label.id
  tags   = module.eg_prod_bastion_label.tags
  egress {
    from_port   = 0
    to_port     = 0
    protocol    = "-1"
    cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
  }
}

Advanced Example

Here is a more complex example with two instances using two different labels. Note how efficiently the tags are defined for both the instance and the security group.

module "eg_prod_bastion_abc_label" {
  source   = "cloudposse/label/null"
  # Cloud Posse recommends pinning every module to a specific version
  # version = "x.x.x"

  attributes = ["abc"]

  tags = {
    "BusinessUnit" = "ABC" # Override the Business Unit tag set in the base label
  }

  # Copy all other fields from the base label

    protocol    = "tcp"
    cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
  }
}

resource "aws_instance" "eg_prod_bastion_abc" {
   instance_type          = "t1.micro"
   tags                   = module.eg_prod_bastion_abc_label.tags
   vpc_security_group_ids = [aws_security_group.eg_prod_bastion_abc.id]
}

module "eg_prod_bastion_xyz_label" {
  source   = "cloudposse/label/null"
  # Cloud Posse recommends pinning every module to a specific version
  # version = "x.x.x"

  attributes = ["xyz"]

  context = module.eg_prod_bastion_label.context
}

resource "aws_security_group" "eg_prod_bastion_xyz" {
  name = module.eg_prod_bastion_xyz_label.id
  tags = module.eg_prod_bastion_xyz_label.tags
  ingress {
    from_port   = 22
    to_port     = 22
    protocol    = "tcp"
    cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
  }
}

resource "aws_instance" "eg_prod_bastion_xyz" {
   instance_type          = "t1.micro"
   tags                   = module.eg_prod_bastion_xyz_label.tags
   vpc_security_group_ids = [aws_security_group.eg_prod_bastion_xyz.id]
}

Advanced Example 2

Here is a more complex example with an autoscaling group that has a different tagging schema than other resources and requires its tags to be in this format, which this module can generate via additional_tag_map and tags_as_list_of_maps:

tags = [
    {
        key = "Name",
        propagate_at_launch = true,
        value = "namespace-stage-name"
    },
    {
        key = "Namespace",
        propagate_at_launch = true,
        value = "namespace"
    },
    {
        key = "Stage",
        propagate_at_launch = true,
        value = "stage"
    }
]

This example shows how you can pass the context output of one label module to the next label_module, allowing you to create one label that has the base set of values, and then creating every extra label as a derivative of that.

Important

In Cloud Posse's examples, we avoid pinning modules to specific versions to prevent discrepancies between the documentation and the latest released versions. However, for your own projects, we strongly advise pinning each module to the exact version you're using. This practice ensures the stability of your infrastructure. Additionally, we recommend implementing a systematic approach for updating versions to avoid unexpected changes.

attributes	ID element. Additional attributes (e.g. `workers` or `cluster`) to add to `id`, in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by the `delimiter` and treated as a single ID element.	`list(string)`	`[]`	no
context	Single object for setting entire context at once. See description of individual variables for details. Leave string and numeric variables as `null` to use default value. Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object, except for attributes, tags, and additional_tag_map, which are merged.	`any`	{ "additional_tag_map": {}, "attributes": [], "delimiter": null, "descriptor_formats": {}, "enabled": true, "environment": null, "id_length_limit": null, "label_key_case": null, "label_order": [], "label_value_case": null, "labels_as_tags": [ "unset" ], "name": null, "namespace": null, "regex_replace_chars": null, "stage": null, "tags": {}, "tenant": null }	no
delimiter	Delimiter to be used between ID elements. Defaults to `-` (hyphen). Set to `""` to use no delimiter at all.	`string`	`null`	no
descriptor_formats	Describe additional descriptors to be output in the `descriptors` output map. Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form `{<br> format = string<br> labels = list(string)<br>}` (Type is `any` so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.) `format` is a Terraform format string to be passed to the `format()` function. `labels` is a list of labels, in order, to pass to `format()` function. Label values will be normalized before being passed to `format()` so they will be identical to how they appear in `id`. Default is `{}` (`descriptors` output will be empty).	`any`	`{}`	no
enabled	Set to false to prevent the module from creating any resources	`bool`	`null`	no
environment	ID element. Usually used for region e.g. 'uw2', 'us-west-2', OR role 'prod', 'staging', 'dev', 'UAT'	`string`	`null`	no
id_length_limit	Limit `id` to this many characters (minimum 6). Set to `0` for unlimited length. Set to `null` for keep the existing setting, which defaults to `0`. Does not affect `id_full`.	`number`	`null`	no
label_key_case	Controls the letter case of the `tags` keys (label names) for tags generated by this module. Does not affect keys of tags passed in via the `tags` input. Possible values: `lower`, `title`, `upper`. Default value: `title`.	`string`	`null`	no
label_order	The order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the `id`. Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"]. You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present.	`list(string)`	`null`	no
label_value_case	Controls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in `id`, set as tag values, and output by this module individually. Does not affect values of tags passed in via the `tags` input. Possible values: `lower`, `title`, `upper` and `none` (no transformation). Set this to `title` and set `delimiter` to `""` to yield Pascal Case IDs. Default value: `lower`.	`string`	`null`	no
labels_as_tags	Set of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the `tags` output. Default is to include all labels. Tags with empty values will not be included in the `tags` output. Set to `[]` to suppress all generated tags. Notes: The value of the `name` tag, if included, will be the `id`, not the `name`. Unlike other `null-label` inputs, the initial setting of `labels_as_tags` cannot be changed in later chained modules. Attempts to change it will be silently ignored.	`set(string)`	[ "default" ]	no
name	ID element. Usually the component or solution name, e.g. 'app' or 'jenkins'. This is the only ID element not also included as a `tag`. The "name" tag is set to the full `id` string. There is no tag with the value of the `name` input.	`string`	`null`	no
namespace	ID element. Usually an abbreviation of your organization name, e.g. 'eg' or 'cp', to help ensure generated IDs are globally unique	`string`	`null`	no
regex_replace_chars	Terraform regular expression (regex) string. Characters matching the regex will be removed from the ID elements. If not set, `"/[^a-zA-Z0-9-]/"` is used to remove all characters other than hyphens, letters and digits.	`string`	`null`	no
stage	ID element. Usually used to indicate role, e.g. 'prod', 'staging', 'source', 'build', 'test', 'deploy', 'release'	`string`	`null`	no
tags	Additional tags (e.g. `{'BusinessUnit': 'XYZ'}`). Neither the tag keys nor the tag values will be modified by this module.	`map(string)`	`{}`	no
tenant	ID element _(Rarely used, not included by default)_. A customer identifier, indicating who this instance of a resource is for	`string`	`null`	no

Outputs

Name	Description
additional_tag_map	The merged additional_tag_map
attributes	List of attributes
context	Merged but otherwise unmodified input to this module, to be used as context input to other modules. Note: this version will have null values as defaults, not the values actually used as defaults.
delimiter	Delimiter between `namespace`, `tenant`, `environment`, `stage`, `name` and `attributes`
descriptors	Map of descriptors as configured by `descriptor_formats`
enabled	True if module is enabled, false otherwise
environment	Normalized environment
