In our previous articles, we have plained about the Terraform Cloud<\/a>, Terraform Statefile<\/a> and Simple Terraform Script<\/a>.<\/strong> In this article, we are going to get some deep knowledge about the Terraform Workspace<\/strong> with Terraform Cloud. This is an automation process with an end-to-end setup from Bitbucket to AWS via Terraform Cloud for managing multiple environments. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Terraform Workspace?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Workspaces<\/strong> are simply referring environments.<\/strong> It helps to store multiple State files independently for multiple environments<\/strong><\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If we use multiple environments like develop, staging<\/strong> and production,<\/strong> we need to manage independent codes for each and every environment.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But with the help of Workspaces, we can use a single code for multiple environments and manage the State files<\/strong> of all the environments independently.\u00a0 It helps to create multiple State files with the same Terraform configurations.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Create Code and Push it to Bitbucket<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Create a Repository\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Open your Bitbucket account and create a repository.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Terraform<\/p>\n

    \n
  • In that repository create a branch called <\/span>feature <\/span><\/b>from <\/span>master <\/span><\/b>branch.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • In VS Code<\/strong> editor open terminal and use git clone<\/strong> command to clone the repository to your local machine. Then get in the repository folder.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \"Terraform<\/p>\n

    \"Terraform<\/p>\n

    Then use git checkout<\/strong> command to create a new branch on the local called feature.<\/strong> And you have automatically entered in that feature<\/strong> branch.<\/p>\n

    \"Terraform<\/p>\n

    Write a code to Create EC2 Instance <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

    In the repository folder create a file as main.tf<\/strong>. Copy the below code and paste it in main.tf<\/strong> file.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      • Here we are going to use workspaces for differentiate the environments.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • For this we use a map function. So, for each section, we set key-value pairs. For Key section, enter the name of the workspaces that are we going to create like Dev<\/strong> and Prod.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • For value section under the instance_count<\/strong>, enter values for Dev<\/strong> and Prod<\/strong> for 1<\/strong> & 2<\/strong>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Again, for the instance_type<\/strong>,\u00a0 enter the values as t2.micro<\/strong> and t3.small<\/strong>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        So, when we deploy this code on Dev<\/strong> workspace, it creates a single EC2 instance with t2.micro<\/strong> type. But when deploy it on Prod<\/strong> workspace, it creates 2<\/strong> Instances with t3.small<\/strong> type. Now we are going to deploy it and test it, weather it works properly or not.<\/span><\/p>\n
        Just keep it in mind. We have to check this differences at the end of this session.<\/p>\n
        Push the Code to Bitbucket\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
          \n
        • In VS code terminal type “git add<\/strong> *<\/strong>” command for getting ready to push all the code to the remote repository.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Git commit<\/strong> command to give a commit message.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Git push<\/strong> command to push the code to the feature<\/strong> branch in remote repository.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \"Terraform<\/p>\n
          Once you push the code to the remote repository, then you have to setup terraform cloud with the Bitbucket for automation process.<\/span><\/p>\n
          Setup Terraform Workspace with Bitbucket<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
          Create 2 Branches on Bitbucket\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
          Now we are going to create 2 branches for connect with terraform workspaces.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
          \"Terraform<\/p>\n
          \"Terraform<\/p>\n
          Create 2 branches in the repository called Dev<\/strong> and Prod<\/strong> from the master<\/strong> branch. These two branches represent as development and production environments.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
          Create 2 Workspaces on Terraform Cloud\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
          Now go to your Terraform Cloud page. First, we are going to create Dev workspace.<\/strong> So, click the button New workspace<\/strong> for create workspaces.<\/span><\/p>\n
          \"Terraform<\/span><\/p>\n
          \"Terraform\u00a0<\/span>For Choose a repository section, choose the one which <\/span>contains<\/span> your terraform code.<\/span><\/p>\n

          • Check the little box under the Pull Requests section. So, whenever we merge a pull request on the Dev branch an automatic plan will be triggered on this workspace.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Then click Create workspace<\/strong> button.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Repeat the same process to create another workspace for Bitbucket branch Prod.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            \"Terraform<\/p>\n

              \n
            • Look at the error mentioned in the above picture, it throws error when click the create workspace. But why it throws error?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
            • You can see there for the VCS branch section; I have entered a wrong branch name. For “Prod<\/strong>” I entered “prod”.<\/strong> For this Terraform seeks a branch as prod<\/strong> in the Bitbucket repository and it didn\u2019t identify any of the branch called prod.<\/strong> So, it can\u2019t connect with Bitbucket.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
            • So, this section is a case sensitive<\/strong>. You have to enter the branch name correctly. And the branch should be in Bitbucket Repository that you have connected with Terraform Cloud.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
              \"Terraform<\/p>\n
              So, you have to enter a correct branch name Prod<\/strong>, and click Create workspace<\/strong> button. Now we are done for creating workspaces and connect them with their respective branches.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
              Configure Variable Sets<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
                \n
              • In the terraform code we have set some variables.<\/strong> But we didn\u2019t have any values for them. So now we are going to set variables in our terraform workspaces.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
              • We have 2 workspaces and we have to add variables in those 2 workspaces. But the values of the variables are same for all the workspaces. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
              • So, for setting variables in the all workspaces individually in their respective variables section. But alternatively, we can use variable set<\/strong>. This one is help us to use a single variable for multiple workspaces.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
              • You can see the below image, click the Settings button and again click variables sets,<\/strong> it navigates you to variables set page. Now click the create variable set<\/strong> button.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                For workspaces section you can select weather Apply to all or Apply to specific. The first one is set the variables to all the workspaces that are present in the organization. The second one is helps us to select specific workspaces.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
                For the best practice always select the second one and choose the workspaces that we need to set the variables.<\/span><\/p>\n
                \"Terraform<\/p>\n
                Click add variable button to add variables, and for case sensitive variables like access_key<\/strong> and secret_key,<\/strong> you have to check the box sensitive<\/strong>. Then only the sensitive variables won\u2019t be showed anywhere, after you set the variables.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
                Once you done adding variables, then click the button Create variable<\/strong> set.<\/span><\/p>\n

                We are done all the setup. Now it\u2019s time to deploy the code and see the magic happens. Let\u2019s do it.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
                Merge Code and Deploy it on AWS<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
