I’m creating aws api gateway resources (not terraform resources) using this:
https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/aws/latest/docs/resources/api_gateway_resource
resource "aws_api_gateway_resource" "MyDemoResource" {
rest_api_id = aws_api_gateway_rest_api.MyDemoAPI.id
parent_id = aws_api_gateway_rest_api.MyDemoAPI.root_resource_id
path_part = "mydemoresource"
}
This works excellent when resources exist at the / level, and the parent_id is set to the api gw’s id. The problem I’m facing is how to handle the creation order for gw resources who’s parent_id is the id of another gw resource; this requires the latter resource to already be created. I’ll give a code example to make it easier to follow:
The resource being created is bar from the path /foo/bar/char/.
In this example:
path_part = bar
parent_id = foo.
foo is a api_gateway_resource that either has or has not already been created with a parent_id equal to the api gw root id.
resource "aws_api_gateway_resource" "bar" {
rest_api_id = aws_api_gateway_rest_api.gw.id
parent_id = aws_api_gateway_resource.bar.id
path_part = "bar"
}
or if you’re using a for_each loop like i am:
resource "aws_api_gateway_resource" "generic_resource" {
for_each = var.resources
rest_api_id = aws_api_gateway_rest_api.gw.id
parent_id = aws_api_gateway_resource.[each.value].id
path_part = "bar"
}
where value=bar.
Terraform will throw an error is the loop loops up the id for bar and it hasn’t yet been created.
This is an addon to issue 53956 after I realized that not all path_part’s sat at the root of the gateway and needed to modify the terraform resource block for api_gateway_resource. At present, I have a yaml file of the gw resources and the values terraform needs to create the aws_api_gateway_resource, aws_api_gateway_method, aws_api_gateway_method_response, aws_api_gateway_integration, and aws_api_gateway_integration_response with the resolved dependency issue from 53956.
