Summary
From this complete chapter, you have gained an understanding of Terraform modules and the different arguments and meta-arguments that are supported by Terraform modules, such as depends_on
, providers
, source
, and version
. Moving further on, we also discussed how you can write Terraform modules for Azure, AWS, and GCP. We then discussed how they can be consumed, and finally, we discussed how you can contribute to the Terraform community by writing and publishing your modules to Terraform Registry. With this knowledge, you will be able to draft a Terraform module and consume it for the deployment or manageability of an enterprise infrastructure.
In our next chapter, we are going to discuss Terraform configuration files and which industry best practices can be followed while writing Terraform configuration files, covering all three cloud providers, Azure, AWS, and GCP.
