terraform-provider-pingdom

This forked repo contains the following additions:

• support for enabling IPv6 checks.
• russellcardullo#88

This project is a terraform provider for pingdom.

This currently only supports working with basic HTTP and ping checks.

This supports Pingdom API v3.1: API reference docs

Requirements

• Terraform 0.12.x
• Go 1.14 (to build the provider plugin)

Usage

Use provider

terraform {
  required_providers {
    pingdom = {
      source = "russellcardullo/pingdom"
      version = "1.1.3"
    }
  }
}

variable "pingdom_api_token" {}

provider "pingdom" {
    api_token = "${var.pingdom_api_token}"
}

Basic Check

resource "pingdom_check" "example" {
    type = "http"
    name = "my http check"
    host = "example.com"
    resolution = 5
}

resource "pingdom_check" "example_with_alert" {
    type = "http"
    name = "my http check"
    host = "example.com"
    resolution = 5
    sendnotificationwhendown = 2 # alert after 5 mins, with resolution 5*(2-1)
    integrationids = [
      12345678,
      23456789
    ]
    userids = [
      24680,
      13579
    ]
}

resource "pingdom_check" "ping_example" {
    type = "ping"
    name = "my ping check"
    host = "example.com"
    resolution = 1
    userids = [
      24680
    ]
}

Apply with:

 terraform apply \
    -var 'pingdom_api_token=YOUR_API_TOKEN'

Using attributes from other resources

variable "heroku_email" {}
variable "heroku_api_key" {}

variable "pingdom_api_token" {}

provider "heroku" {
    email = var.heroku_email
    api_key = var.heroku_api_key
}

provider "pingdom" {
    api_token = var.pingdom_api_token
}

resource "heroku_app" "example" {
    name = "my-app"
    region = "us"
}

resource "pingdom_check" "example" {
    name = "my check"
    host = heroku_app.example.heroku_hostname
    resolution = 5
}

Teams

resource "pingdom_team" "test" {
  name = "The Test team"
  member_ids = [
    pingdom_contact.first_contact.id,
  ]
}

Contacts

Note that all contacts must have both a high and low severity notification

resource "pingdom_contact" "first_contact" {
  name = "johndoe"

  sms_notification {
    number   = "5555555555"
    severity = "HIGH"
  }

  sms_notification {
    number       = "3333333333"
    country_code = "91"
    severity     = "LOW"
    provider     = "esendex"
  }

  email_notification {
    address  = "[email protected]"
    severity = "LOW"
  }
}

resource "pingdom_contact" "second_contact" {
  name   = "janedoe"
  paused = true

  email_notification {
    address  = "[email protected]"
    severity = "LOW"
  }

  email_notification {
    address  = "[email protected]"
    severity = "HIGH"
  }
}

Pingdom Check

Common Attributes

The following common attributes for all check types can be set:

• name - (Required) The name of the check

• host - (Required) The hostname to check. Should be in the format example.com.

• resolution - (Required) The time in minutes between each check. Allowed values: (1,5,15,30,60).

• type - (Required) The check type. Allowed values: (http, ping).

• paused - Whether the check is active or not (defaults to false, if not provided). Allowed values (bool): true, false

• responsetime_threshold = How long (int: milliseconds) pingdom should wait before marking a probe as failed (defaults to 30000 ms)

• sendnotificationwhendown - The consecutive failed checks required to trigger an alert. Values of 1 imply notification instantly. Values of 2 mean pingdom will wait for a second check to fail, i.e. resolution minutes, to trigger an alert. For example sendnotificationwhendown: 2 and resolution: 1, will trigger an alert after 1 minute. Further, values of N will trigger an alert after (N - 1) * resolution minutes, e.g. sendnotificationwhendown: 6 and resolution: 1 will trigger an alert after 5 minutes. Values of 0 are ignored. See note about interaction with integrationids below.

• notifyagainevery - Notify again after n results. A value of 0 means no additional notifications will be sent.

• notifywhenbackup - Notify when back up.

• integrationids - List of integer integration IDs (defined by webhook URL) that will be triggered by the alerts. The ID can be extracted from the integrations page URL on the pingdom website. See note about interaction with sendnotificationwhendown below.

• userids - List of integer user IDs that will be notified when the check is down.

• teamids - List of integer team IDs that will be notified when the check is down.

Note that when using integrationids, the sendnotificationwhendown value will be ignored when sending webhook notifications. You may need to contact Pingdom support for more details. See #52.

HTTP specific attributes

For the HTTP checks, you can set these attributes:

• url - Target path on server.

• encryption - Enable encryption in the HTTP check (aka HTTPS).

• port - Target port for HTTP checks.

• username - Username for target HTTP authentication.

• password - Password for target HTTP authentication.

• shouldcontain - Target site should contain this string.

• shouldnotcontain - Target site should NOT contain this string. Not allowed defined together with shouldcontain.

• postdata - Data that should be posted to the web page, for example submission data for a sign-up or login form. The data needs to be formatted in the same way as a web browser would send it to the web server.

• requestheaders - Custom HTTP headers. It should be a hash with pairs, like { "header_name" = "header_content" }

• tags - List of tags the check should contain. Should be in the format "tagA,tagB"

• probefilters - Region from which the check should originate. One of NA, EU, APAC, or LATAM. Should be in the format "region:NA"

• stringtosend - (optional) This string will be sent to the port

• stringtoexpect - (optional) This string must be returned by the remote host for the check to pass

The following attributes are exported:

• id The ID of the Pingdom check

Pingdom Team

• name - (Required) The name of the team

• member_ids - List of integer contact IDs that will be notified when the check is down.

Pingdom Contact

• name: (Required) Name of the contact

• paused: Whether alerts for this contact should be disabled

• sms_notification: Block resource describing an SMS notification

  • country_code: The country code, defaults to "1"

Develop The Provider

Dependencies for building from source

If you need to build from source, you should have a working Go environment setup. If not check out the Go getting started guide.

This project uses Go Modules for dependency management. To fetch all dependencies run go get inside this repository.

Build

make build

The binary will then be available at _build/terraform-provider-pingdom_VERSION.

Install

make install

This will place the binary under $HOME/.terraform.d/plugins/OS_ARCH/terraform-provider-pingdom_VERSION. After installing you will need to run terraform init in any project using the plugin.
