Simple Terraform configuration to setup CloudFlare DNS using S3 as Backend

Primary LanguageHCL

tf-cloudflare

Simple Terraform configuration to create the following resources:

  • CloudFlare DNS Zone;
  • CloudFlare DNS Records;
  • AWS S3 bucket (to store TF state);
  • AWS S3 acl (to keep the bucket private);
  • AWS S3 Versioning (speaks for itself right?);
  • AWS DynamoDB (to prevent write operations while another is already ongoing);

Prerequisites:

  • CloudFlare account (free plan will do);
  • AWS account: -> S3 (to store just the tf state file, S3 will cost less than 1 cent a month); -> DynamoDB (AWS offers 25GB of storage FOREVER);

To generate your CloudFlare API Key access, if you don't already have one: https://dash.cloudflare.com/profile/api-tokens

How to use:

  1. Setup tf variables, if you are running this locally i recommend to create a terraform.tfvars and put this:
domain                  = "<your-domain>"
cloudflare_email        = "<your-cloudflare-email-account>"
cloudflare_api_key      = "<your-cloudflare-generated-api-key>"
  1. Assuming that you have already configured your AWS access credentials, Initialize Terraform to start downloading Providers (CloudFlare and AWS) and Setup S3 and DynamoDB as Backend:

$ terraform init

  1. Plan and Appply your code:

$ terraform plan && terraform apply --auto-approve

  1. See the resources created:

$ terraform show

  1. Destroy all resources created previously:

$ terraform destroy --auto-approve
