Wondering if we can discuss during the office hours about what kind of tools are available or are people using to get an overview of their existing clusters and all the apps deployed in them a well as their versions.

For many chart developers this was an unexpected breaking change: https://github.com/bitnami/charts/issues/10539
Probably worth mentioning here

What are folks doing when they have a spacelift stack that assumes roles in multiple accounts. Do you cascade down the external id from spacelift_stack and reuse it as the external id for all assumable roles for that stack?

I do not know if this was mentioned in lasts office hours : https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/31134 we need more votes

and my question for today: (I might not be in the call) = what is the greatest latest to deploy apigateway lambda pairs? lambda aliases? lambda versions? multiple stages? done outside terraform? done on the pipeline ? ( working on ADO pipeline at the moment using AWS infra) codedeploy for blue/green/canary? I want to avoid at all cost to have to do a TF deploy to do a deploy, I do not believe TF is good deployment tool and I’m have the AWS tools for the ADO pipeline

FYI: I’ll miss tomorrow’s call 😞

Hello. I want to ask if there is any tool you guys use for templating for any file format

1. Needs to understand shell env variables
2. Must work on any file type
My aim is to use a cli tool that will replace keys on a file

I looked at jinja2 but i need something that directly utilises shell env variables

It must be a shell cli so i can easily use it on any ci/cd tool

And no i dont want to use good all sed command ;)

Gomplate

envsubst might get you close to what you're looking for (should be available on most Linux distros). Projects associated might have solved what your're looking for too https://github.com/search?q=envsubst

Thank you Patrick

Thank you Jeff

It seems gomplate is becoming a star…

Also envsubst is like everywhere as it comes with all

I just saw someone on Reddit said:

I just used gomplate (https://github.com/hairyhenderson/gomplate) to generate my resources based on a YAML input and a template. Because my use case was a bit different (wanted to give the developers a way to create ec2 instances in an “IaC” way by just providing a YAML file), I later combined atlantis from runatlantis and gomplate so it will generate my terraform resource and will create after an approval.

Anyone done something like this? Office-Hour Question

Terraform 1.2.3 just dropped:

Q: How does everybody handle database refreshes from Prod to Lower environments when everything's provisioned through terraform? (in this case, AWS RDS, Oracle if that matters)
• A colleague of mine solved it by terraforming only Prod, then using scripts to refresh DBs to lower environments (qa, stg, etc.). I'm not sure how I feel about that direction.

could not make it today, sorry 😢

Anyone here have any IP Address Management solutions they would recommend?

I'm dealing with a pretty large multi-cloud deployment as well as on-premise and I'm looking for a sane way to keep track of things. I looked at AWS IPAM but it seems like it's only AWS specific.

thought it was just me

Seems like it's back

Anyone using lenses.io ? They were acquired by celonis.com last Oct and sales hasn't been very responsive, which make me a bit nervous. We haven't ruled them out completely, but keeping an eye out for options. Any recommendations for alternatives other than Confluent?
