Usage

IMPORTANT: We do not pin modules to versions in our examples because of the difficulty of keeping the versions in the documentation in sync with the latest released versions. We highly recommend that in your code you pin the version to the exact version you are using so that your infrastructure remains stable, and update versions in a systematic way so that they do not catch you by surprise.

Also, because of a bug in the Terraform registry (hashicorp/terraform#21417), the registry shows many of our inputs as required when in fact they are optional. The table below correctly indicates which inputs are required.

Disruptive changes introduced at version 0.41.0. If upgrading from an earlier version, see migration notes for details.

Note that this uses secure defaults. One of the ways this module can trip users up is with transit_encryption_enabled which is true by default. With this enabled, one does not simply redis-cli in without setting up an stunnel. Amazon provides good documentation on how to connect with it enabled. If this is not desired behavior, set transit_encryption_enabled=false.

This module creates, by default, a new security group for the Elasticache Redis Cluster. When a configuration change (for example, a different security group name) cannot be applied to the security group, Terraform will replace that security group with a new one with the new configuration. In order to allow Terraform to fully manage the security group, you should not place any other resources in (or associate any other resources with) the security group this module creates. Also, in order to keep things from breaking when this module replaces the security group, you should not reference the created security group anywhere else (such as in rules in other security groups). If you want to associate the cluster with a more stable security group that you can reference elsewhere, create that security group outside this module (perhaps with terraform-aws-security-group) and pass the security group ID in via associated_security_group_ids.

Note about zone_id: Previously, zone_id was a string. This caused problems (see #82). Now zone_id should be supplied as a list(string), either empty or with exactly 1 zone ID in order to avoid the problem.

For a complete example, see examples/complete.

For automated tests of the complete example using bats and Terratest (which tests and deploys the example on AWS), see test.

Defaults to - (hyphen). Set to "" to use no delimiter at all. | string | null | no | | description | Description of elasticache replication group | string | null | no | | descriptor_formats | Describe additional descriptors to be output in the descriptors output map.
Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form

(Type is any so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.)
format is a Terraform format string to be passed to the format() function.
labels is a list of labels, in order, to pass to format() function.
Label values will be normalized before being passed to format() so they will be
identical to how they appear in id.
Default is {} (descriptors output will be empty). | any | {} | no | | dns_subdomain | The subdomain to use for the CNAME record. If not provided then the CNAME record will use var.name. | string | "" | no |

Does not affect keys of tags passed in via the tags input.
Possible values: lower, title, upper.
Default value: title. | string | null | no | | label_order | The order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the id.
Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"].
You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present. | list(string) | null | no | | label_value_case | Controls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in id,
set as tag values, and output by this module individually.
Does not affect values of tags passed in via the tags input.
Possible values: lower, title, upper and none (no transformation).
Set this to title and set delimiter to "" to yield Pascal Case IDs.
Default value: lower. | string | null | no | | labels_as_tags | Set of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the tags output.
Default is to include all labels.
Tags with empty values will not be included in the tags output.

Unlike other null-label inputs, the initial setting of labels_as_tags cannot be
changed in later chained modules. Attempts to change it will be silently ignored. | set(string) |
