SNS Email List w/Topic Terraform Module

Terraform Module for SNS Topic and List of Emails

Introduction

Terraform supports most AWS SNS resource options except for email or email-json protocols. Because the email needs to be confirmed, it becomes out of the normal bounds of the terraform model so it does not support it.

This module creates an SNS email topic via a CloudFormation that outputs the ARN for use elsewhere.

Usage

Use the module in your terraform files:

module "sns-email-topic" {
  source = "github.com/zghafari/tf-sns-email-list"

  display_name  = "Example: CloudWatch Alerts"
  email_addresses = ["user1@example.com", "user2@example.com"]
  stack_name    = "unique-sns-stack-name"
}

run terraform init to download the module.

Once you've applied it you can check the value with

terraform output -module=sns-email-topic arn

Inputs
