Custom url_map resource inside the module
eitchugo opened this issue · 3 comments
TL;DR
I'm using terragrunt for implementing this module and I have a use case on creating a custom url_map resource with multiple host_rules and path_matchers. I'm getting a circular dependency error because to create the url map I need the backend service from this module, but to create the LB with a custom url_map I need the custom url_map already created.
So, implementing the custom url_map inside a module here would be great.
Terraform Resources
resource "google_compute_url_map" "default"Detailed design
I did a quick and dirty proof of concept: eitchugo@0ad4b3d
It's working, but not complete.
I want your opinion if it's OK to create a Pull Request and work on this. What I have on my mind:
-
The url_map would be a sub-module that can be referenced on the main and other sub-modules. Any references to it would be replaced with
module.url_map.output.self_link -
The default url_map would stay the same, and a new variable would be created:
create_url_map_resource. If this variable exists, it will replace the default url_map for this custom one (example in my code). This makes it a non-breaking change.
