@globallogicuki/backstage-plugin-terraform-backend v0.3.0

Terraform Backend Plugin for Backstage

This plugin is the backend api used by the terraform frontend plugin.

Install

yarn add @globallogicuki/backstage-plugin-terraform-backend

Setup

To use the terraform backend, you will need to configure the following in your app-config.yaml file:

integrations:
  terraform:
    token: tokenGoesHere

New Backstage backend system

You must be using v0.3.0 or greater of the backend and frontend plugin if you are using the new Backstage backend system. See here for more info.

Add the following to packages/backend/src/index.ts:

backend.add(import('@globallogicuki/backstage-plugin-terraform-backend'));

Legacy Backstage backend system

Create a new file named packages/backend/src/plugins/terraform.ts, and add the following to it:

import { createRouter } from '@globallogicuki/backstage-plugin-terraform-backend';
import { Router } from 'express';
import { PluginEnvironment } from '../types';

export default async function createPlugin(
  env: PluginEnvironment,
): Promise<Router> {
  return await createRouter({
    logger: env.logger,
    config: env.config,
  });
}

And finally, wire this into the overall backend router. Edit packages/backend/src/index.ts:

import terraform from './plugins/terraform';
// ...
async function main() {
  // ...
  const terraformEnv = useHotMemoize(module, () => createEnv('terraform'));
  apiRouter.use('/terraform', await terraform(terraformEnv));

Status Check

After you start the backend (e.g. using yarn start-backend from the repo root), you should be able to fetch data from it.

curl localhost:7007/api/terraform/health

This should return {"status":"ok"}.
