Is there some way to provide variable values to my modules besides supplying them in my module {} section of the root main.tf file? That would make for a very large and ugly file.
I tried putting a terraform.tfvars file in the modules/module directory but that doesn’t work.
The end goal is to manage the variables for each module independently.
Thanks.
Hi
I think you can certainly write beautiful Terraform code but as far as I know there is a single terraform.tfvars (assigns values to the variables) and I kind of like it as there is a place to have all the configuration together.
Please see an example with modules and variables that uses many different files and with variable definitions in its own module (i.e. aws_sg_rds_mariadb_default_vars.tf)
Let me me know what you think about the layout and proposed best practices.
