Harmony Infrastructure Set Up

Overview

The Harmony Project uses terraform to create infrastructure on which it runs. Currently we only support AWS set up.

Prerequisite

You would need the following to set up the infrastructure:

1. An AWS Account
2. Terraform Installed on your laptop/computer
3. Create an S3 Bucket to store the Terraform state

Configuration

We have a template folder which you need to copy into an an environment folder. For example if you would like to create a staging environment, do the following:

cp -r infrastructure/aws/template  infrastructure/aws/staging

Let's assume that you are a Ministry of Health in a country called Zamunda. We will use the following naming(can be adjusuted to suit your preference):

• YOUR_SHORT_CODE: zd (Let's say that's an iso code for country Zamunda)
• AWS_REGION_OF_YOUR_CHOICE: eu-west-1 (Let's say that's the AWS region close to you)
• ENVIRONMENT_CODE: staging (Or you could use stag)
• YOUR_NAME_OR_DEPT: ZamundaMinistryOfHelth (or ZMoH)

Then edit the following:

1. infrastructure/aws/staging/main.tf

module "deployment" {
    DEPLOYMENT          = "__YOUR_SHORT_CODE__"
    REGION_NAME         = "__AWS_REGION_OF_YOUR_CHOICE__"
    ENV_CODE            = "__ENVIRONMENT_CODE__"
    OWNER               = "__YOUR_NAME_OR_DEPT__"
    source             =  "../env"
}

becomes:

module "deployment" {
    DEPLOYMENT          = "zd"
    REGION_NAME         = "eu-west-1"
    ENV_CODE            = "staging"
    OWNER               = "ZamundaMinistryOfHelth"
    source             =  "../env"
}

2. infrastructure/aws/staging/provider.tf
