TerraFold

The goal of Terrafold is to provide a convenience tool to help auto the scaffolding of AWS Lambdas, and their associated Terraform files.

A new lambda can be achieved by creating a simple json file in the repo root or, preferably, in the lambda directory root:

{
  "name": "new-lambda",
  "description": "new lambda description",
  "triggers": ["api","invoke","sns","sqs"],
  "overwrite": false
}

This tool is extremely opinionated, by design. It was written for a specific group of developers I work with and as such follows and enforces their particular application structure pattern.

The name TerraFold is the playful combination of Terraform and Scaffold.

Commands

• newprofile - creates a new TerraFold profile json file.
• scaffold - takes the named profile json and creates the handlers and iac files. Will not overwrite unless overwrite flag in profile is set to true.
• bumpsemver - will search a named json file for version, and increment the patch number.
• dumptemplates - writes the embedded template files to a folder named TerrafoldTemplates.

Installation

Download this repo, and then run:

go build -o /usr/local/bin/terrafold ./cmd/cli/main.go

If you do not build directly to /usr/local/bin, you need to move or otherwise assure terrafold is somewhere in your execution path.
