Terraform Network Module
This module makes it easy to set up a new VPC Network in GCP by defining your network and subnet ranges in a concise syntax.
It supports creating:
- A Google Virtual Private Network (VPC)
- Subnets within the VPC
- Secondary ranges for the subnets (if applicable)
Sub modules are provided for creating individual vpc, subnets, and routes. See the modules directory for the various sub modules usage.
Compatibility
This module is meant for use with Terraform 1.3+ and tested using Terraform 1.4+.
If you find incompatibilities using Terraform >=1.3
, please open an issue.
If you haven't upgraded and need a Terraform 0.12.x-compatible version of this module, the last released version intended for Terraform 0.12.x is 2.6.0.
Usage
You can go to the examples folder, however the usage of the module could be like this in your own main.tf file:
module "vpc" {
source = "terraform-google-modules/network/google"
version = "~> 7.2"
project_id = "<PROJECT ID>"
network_name = "example-vpc"
routing_mode = "GLOBAL"
subnets = [
{
subnet_name = "subnet-01"
subnet_ip = "10.10.10.0/24"
subnet_region = "us-west1"
},
{
subnet_name = "subnet-02"
subnet_ip = "10.10.20.0/24"
subnet_region = "us-west1"
subnet_private_access = "true"
subnet_flow_logs = "true"
description = "This subnet has a description"
},
{
subnet_name = "subnet-03"
subnet_ip = "10.10.30.0/24"
subnet_region = "us-west1"
subnet_flow_logs = "true"
subnet_flow_logs_interval = "INTERVAL_10_MIN"
subnet_flow_logs_sampling = 0.7
subnet_flow_logs_metadata = "INCLUDE_ALL_METADATA"
}
]
secondary_ranges = {
subnet-01 = [
{
range_name = "subnet-01-secondary-01"
ip_cidr_range = "192.168.64.0/24"
},
]
subnet-02 = []
}
routes = [
{
name = "egress-internet"
description = "route through IGW to access internet"
destination_range = "0.0.0.0/0"
tags = "egress-inet"
next_hop_internet = "true"
},
{
name = "app-proxy"
description = "route through proxy to reach app"
destination_range = "10.50.10.0/24"
tags = "app-proxy"
next_hop_instance = "app-proxy-instance"
next_hop_instance_zone = "us-west1-a"
},
]
}
Then perform the following commands on the root folder:
terraform init
to get the pluginsterraform plan
to see the infrastructure planterraform apply
to apply the infrastructure buildterraform destroy
to destroy the built infrastructure
