Here is a small HTML project I created to generate a new GUID each time the "Generate New GUID" button is clicked. Additionally, this project includes a feature that allows you to easily copy the generated GUID to your clipboard by clicking on a copy icon next to the GUID. The project uses basic HTM…
In this article, I will guide you through the process of configuring a Terraform module hosted on GitHub.com as a source for the use inside Terraform module projects. In my previous blog (Part 1), I demonstrated how to set up a GitHub.com repository and branch using HashiCorp Terraform code.
To S…
In this blog post, I will walk you through using HashiCorp Terraform to create and configure repositories and branches on an existing GitHub account. Before we begin, it's important to note that you should already have an active GitHub account.
To allow Terraform to interact with your GitHub acco…
This PowerShell script provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for generating new GUIDs. Each time the "Generate" button is clicked, a new GUID is created using the [guid]::NewGuid() command. The interface is built using Windows Forms, offering a user-friendly way to quickly generate and view uniq…
In this Terraform example, I explored two approaches to working with map variables. Firstly, I used a for loop to iterate over the key-value pairs in the address_prefixes map, extracting the prefix values and enclosing the loop within square brackets [] to generate list from map.
Alternatively, …
While working with Terraform, I needed to deploy resources without relying on the count meta-argument. My variable was a list of objects, but using count resulted in index numbers being appended to the resource names. To avoid this, I opted to use the for_each argument to iterate over the list of ob…
This article I will show the example of Terraform looping map of object variable type and using if condition to filter the map key value. In this demo I provided a map of object inside users variable. Following inside the locals variable, I am using logic for loop over map of objects and if cond…
