Serverless TF

Introduction

I really love Serverless for their ease of use--but a lot of enterprises are already integrated with Terraform. So, this Terraform module was designed to be as simple to use as Serverless by mirroring the structure of serverless.yml.

Supported languages:

  • Go
  • Python
  • Javascript

Supported Events:

  • S3
  • HTTP (API Gateway)
  • Schedule (Cloudwatch Cron)

Contents

Usage

Similar to the serverless.yml spec, functions are first class citizens. Then you define what triggers the function (http, schedule, etc.). The serverless.yml structure is flattened at the events name has been omitted. Look at the examples below for more clarity.

Just a Lambda Function

As seen in Example: Hello World Go

module "serverless" {
  source = "rms1000watt/serverless-tf/aws"

  functions = [
    {
      file = "main.go"
    },
  ]
}

As seen in Example: Hello World Py

module "serverless" {
  source = "rms1000watt/serverless-tf/aws"

  functions = [
    {
      file = "main.py"
    },
  ]
}

As seen in Example: Hello World JS

module "serverless" {
  source = "rms1000watt/serverless-tf/aws"

  functions = [
    {
      file = "main.js"
    },
  ]
}

HTTP (API Gateway)

As seen in Example: HTTP Go

module "serverless" {
  source = "rms1000watt/serverless-tf/aws"

  functions = [
    {
      file       = "main.go"
      http_path  = "hello-world"
    },
  ]
}

Then test by running:

curl https://$API_DEPLOYMENT_ID.execute-api.$REGION.amazonaws.com/dev/hello-world

Schedule (Cloudwatch Event)

As seen in Example: Schedule Go

module "serverless" {
  source = "rms1000watt/serverless-tf/aws"

  functions = [
    {
      file          = "main.go"
      schedule_rate = "rate(1 minute)"
    },
  ]
}

S3 Event

As seen in Example: S3 Go

module "serverless" {
  source = "../.."

  functions = [
    {
      file      = "main.go"
      s3_bucket = "org-x-super-cool-bucket"
    },
  ]
}

Different Regions

As seen in Example: Regions Go

provider "aws" {
  region = "us-west-2"
}

module "serverless" {
  source = "../.."

  functions = [
    {
      region        = "us-east-1"
      file          = "../http-go/main.go"
      schedule_rate = "rate(1 hour)"
      http_path     = "hello-world"
    },
    {
      region        = "us-east-2"
      file          = "../http-go/main.go"
      schedule_rate = "rate(1 hour)"
      http_path     = "hello-world"
    },
  ]
}

Combination of Events

module "serverless" {
  source = "rms1000watt/serverless-tf/aws"

  functions = [
    {
      file = "main.go"
    },
    {
      file          = "main.go"
      http_path     = "hello-world"
      schedule_rate = "rate(2 hours)"
    },
    {
      file          = "main.go"
      schedule_rate = "rate(1 minute)"
    },
    {
      file       = "main.go"
      http_path  = "hello-world-again"
    },
  ]
}

Override Lambda Role/Policy

See Example: HTTP S3 Go for an example to override Lambda Role/Policy allowing it to connect to an S3 bucket.

HTTP with Authorizer

As seen in Example: HTTP Authorizer Go

module "serverless" {
  source = "../.."

  functions = [
    {
      file       = "main.go"
      name       = "authorizer-1"
      vendor_cmd = "dep ensure"
    },
    {
      file = "../hello-world-go/main.go"

      http_path       = "hello-world"
      http_authorizer = "authorizer-1"
    },
  ]
}

HTTP with Authorizer with Custom Policy

As seen in Example: HTTP Authorizer S3 Go to override authorizer with a custom policy.

Options

Here are the options that each function supports.

module "serverless" {
  source = "rms1000watt/serverless-tf/aws"

  service     = "" // optional (default: folder name)
  stage       = "" // optional (default: dev)
  http_policy = "" // optional (default: "") (usage: Global API Gateway policy to restrict access)

  functions = [
    {
      file       = "main.go"       // required (usage: relative path to file: main.go, ../main.go, path/to/main.go)
      vendor_cmd = "dep ensure" // optional (default: "")
      test_cmd   = "go test ./..." // optional (default: "")
      name       = ""              // optional (default: folder name + basename(file) + list_index, only required if this will be authorizer)
      runtime    = ""              // optional (default: go1.x for *.go, python3.6 for *.py, nodejs8.10 for *.js)
      handler    = ""              // optional (default: ${basename(file)})
      rebuild    = ""              // optional (default: never)
      role_arn   = ""              // optional (default: default role with cloudwatch access: role-lambda.json)
      env_keys   = ""              // optional (default: "") (usage: space delimited list: "KEY1 KEY2 KEY3")
      env_vals   = ""              // optional (default: "") (usage: space delimited list: "value1 value2 value3")
      region     = ""              // optional (default: "") (usage: define a different region to deploy the function + events within)

      http                       = "" // optional (default: "" unless any http_OPTS are defined)
      http_path                  = "" // optional (default: lambda_name when http = true)
      http_method                = "" // optional (default: GET when http = true)
      http_metrics               = "" // optional (default: "" when http = true)
      http_logging               = "" // optional (default: "" when http = true)
      http_authorizer            = "" // optional (default: "" specify function name you want to use as CUSTOM REQUEST authorizer)
      http_authorizer_policy_arn = "" // optional (default: "" specify policy arn if you need additional permissions)

      schedule      = "" // optional (default: "" unless any schedule_OPTS are defined)
      schedule_rate = "" // optional (default: rate(1 hour))

      s3_bucket = "" // optional (default: "") (usage: bucket must exist with this name)
      s3_events = "" // optional (default: "s3:ObjectRemoved:* s3:ObjectCreated:* s3:ReducedRedundancyLostObject" when s3_bucket != "") (usage: space delimited list)
      s3_prefix = "" // optional (default: "")
      s3_suffix = "" // optional (default: "")

      cloudwatch_event_pattern = "" // optional (default: "") (usage: a cloudwatch event pattern in a file or HEREDOC style)
    },
  ]
}

Output

Since this is a module, the ouput needs to be mapped from the module to your implementation. Many outputs have been stubbed out. Look at the outputs directory for some stubs.

Limitations

  • Up to 5 functions per module (configurable.. update generator.sh then submit a PR)
  • No duplicate event-type per function (ie. only 1 http_path per function)
  • Depth of 1 API Gateway path
  • No dynamic path parameters in API Gateway

(Please contribute if you need this functionality)

Alternative Approach

An alternative approach for full Serverless functionality would be to create a Golang binary with file-packed templates that accepts and parses serverless.yml as input and generates all the Terraform files as output. The trade-off is between limited functionality without changing your Terraform toolset or getting full functionality but changing your toolset/pipeline.
