This directory contains the Terraform files necessary to create the rds_logs_to_s3 AWS Lambda function and its
supporting infrastructure (S3 bucket, CloudWatch events).
A Lambda function called rds_logs_to_s3 will be deployed with configurable CloudWatch Event Rule triggers, scheduled
to run every 30 minutes by default (but configurable via Terraform variables).
If you are deploying this to multiple environments (e.g. dev, staging, production), it's recommended that each
environment has a corresponding <environment>.tfvars file which describes the configuration for that environment.
The Terraform state will be stored in an S3 in a bucket of your choice with the key rds_logs_to_s3.tfstate.
- Terraform (version >= 0.12.6)
- AWS credentials with access to create Lambda functions and CloudWatch events
The below example assumes that your AWS credentials are set as environment variables, or in a
credentials file under the default
profile. You can optionally specify the profile if you wish as well. See
Terraform's AWS provider docs for more details.
Additionally, we must init the S3 backend to store the state file before doing anything.
# Substitute the region and bucket as necessary
terraform init \
-backend-config="region=us-east-1" \
-backend-config="bucket=example-tfstate-bucket" \
# Always check the plan first!
terraform plan -var-file="dev.tfvars"
# Then apply...
terraform apply -var-file="dev.tfvars"
# ...and optionally teardown
terraform destroy -var-file="dev.tfvars"
See variables.tf and outputs.tf for information on inputs and outputs respectively.
