terraform-datadog-monitor

Terraform module to configure Datadog monitors.

---

This project is part of our comprehensive "SweetOps" approach towards DevOps.

It's 100% Open Source and licensed under the APACHE2.

We literally have hundreds of terraform modules that are Open Source and well-maintained. Check them out!

Introduction

Datadog monitors are defined in YAML configuration files.

We maintain a comprehensive catalog of Datadog monitors and welcome contributions via pull request!

The example in this module uses the catalog to provision the monitors on Datadog.

For more details, refer to:

• Terraform Datadog monitor resource
• Create a monitor

Usage

IMPORTANT: We do not pin modules to versions in our examples because of the difficulty of keeping the versions in the documentation in sync with the latest released versions. We highly recommend that in your code you pin the version to the exact version you are using so that your infrastructure remains stable, and update versions in a systematic way so that they do not catch you by surprise.

Also, because of a bug in the Terraform registry (hashicorp/terraform#21417), the registry shows many of our inputs as required when in fact they are optional. The table below correctly indicates which inputs are required.

For a complete example, see examples/complete.

For automated tests of the complete example using bats and Terratest (which tests and deploys the example on Datadog), see test.

  module "yaml_config" {
    source = "git::https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-yaml-config.git?ref=master"

    map_config_local_base_path = path.module
    map_config_paths           = ["catalog/*.yaml"]

    context = module.this.context
  }

  module "datadog_monitors" {
    source = "git::https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-datadog-monitor.git?ref=master"

    datadog_monitors     = module.yaml_config.map_configs
    alert_tags           = ["@opsgenie"]
    alert_tags_separator = "\n"

    context = module.this.context
 }

delimiter	Delimiter to be used between namespace, environment, stage, name and attributes. Defaults to - (hyphen). Set to "" to use no delimiter at all.	string	null	no
enabled	Set to false to prevent the module from creating any resources	bool	null	no
environment	Environment, e.g. 'uw2', 'us-west-2', OR 'prod', 'staging', 'dev', 'UAT'	string	null	no
id_length_limit	Limit id to this many characters (minimum 6). Set to 0 for unlimited length. Set to null for default, which is 0. Does not affect id_full.	number	null	no
label_key_case	The letter case of label keys (tag names) (i.e. name, namespace, environment, stage, attributes) to use in tags. Possible values: lower, title, upper. Default value: title.	string	null	no
label_order	The naming order of the id output and Name tag. Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"]. You can omit any of the 5 elements, but at least one must be present.	list(string)	null	no
