terraform-aws-tailscale

This is a Terraform Module to create a simple, autoscaled Tailscale Subnet Router on EC2 instance along with generated auth key, and its corresponding IAM resources. The instance should cycle itself on a schedule.

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

Usage

Here's how to invoke this example module in your projects

module "vpc" {
  source  = "cloudposse/vpc/aws"
  version = "2.1.1"

  namespace = "eg"
  stage     = "test"
  name      = "tailscale"

  ipv4_primary_cidr_block = "172.16.0.0/16"
}

module "subnets" {
  source  = "cloudposse/dynamic-subnets/aws"
  version = "2.4.1"

  namespace = "eg"
  stage     = "test"
  name      = "tailscale"

  availability_zones = ["us-east-1a", "us-east-1b"]

  vpc_id          = module.vpc.vpc_id
  igw_id          = [module.vpc.igw_id]
  ipv4_cidr_block = [module.vpc.vpc_cidr_block]
}

module "tailscale" {
  source  = "masterpointio/tailscale/aws"
  version = "X.X.X"

  namespace = "eg"
  stage     = "test"
  name      = "tailscale"

  vpc_id           = module.vpc.vpc_id
  subnet_ids       = module.subnets.private_subnet_ids
  advertise_routes = [module.vpc.vpc_cidr_block]

  ephemeral = true
}

Inputs

Name	Description	Type	Default	Required
additional_security_group_ids	Additional Security Group IDs to associate with the Tailscale Subnet Router EC2 instance.	list(string)	[]	no
additional_tag_map	Additional key-value pairs to add to each map in tags_as_list_of_maps. Not added to tags or id. This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration.	map(string)	{}	no
additional_tags	Additional Tailscale tags to apply to the Tailscale Subnet Router machine in addition to primary_tag. These should not include the tag: prefix.	list(string)	[]	no
advertise_routes	The routes (expressed as CIDRs) to advertise as part of the Tailscale Subnet Router. Example: ["10.0.2.0/24", "0.0.1.0/24"]	list(string)	[]	no
ami	The AMI to use for the Tailscale Subnet Router EC2 instance. If not provided, the latest Amazon Linux 2 AMI will be used. Note: This will update periodically as AWS releases updates to their AL2 AMI. Pin to a specific AMI if you would like to avoid these updates.	string	""	no
associate_public_ip_address	Associate public IP address with subnet router	bool	null	no
attributes	ID element. Additional attributes (e.g. workers or cluster) to add to id, in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by the delimiter and treated as a single ID element.	list(string)	[]	no
context	Single object for setting entire context at once. See description of individual variables for details. Leave string and numeric variables as null to use default value. Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object, except for attributes, tags, and additional_tag_map, which are merged.	any	{ "additional_tag_map": {}, "attributes": [], "delimiter": null, "descriptor_formats": {}, "enabled": true, "environment": null, "id_length_limit": null, "label_key_case": null, "label_order": [], "label_value_case": null, "labels_as_tags": [ "unset" ], "name": null, "namespace": null, "regex_replace_chars": null, "stage": null, "tags": {}, "tenant": null }	no
create_run_shell_document	Whether or not to create the SSM-SessionManagerRunShell SSM Document.	bool	true	no
delimiter	Delimiter to be used between ID elements. Defaults to - (hyphen). Set to "" to use no delimiter at all.	string	null	no
descriptor_formats	Describe additional descriptors to be output in the descriptors output map. Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form {<br> format = string<br> labels = list(string)<br>} (Type is any so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.) format is a Terraform format string to be passed to the format() function. labels is a list of labels, in order, to pass to format() function. Label values will be normalized before being passed to format() so they will be identical to how they appear in id. Default is {} (descriptors output will be empty).	any	{}	no
enabled	Set to false to prevent the module from creating any resources	bool	null	no
environment	ID element. Usually used for region e.g. 'uw2', 'us-west-2', OR role 'prod', 'staging', 'dev', 'UAT'	string	null	no
ephemeral	Indicates if the key is ephemeral.	bool	false	no
exit_node_enabled	Advertise Tailscale Subnet Router EC2 instance as exit node. Defaults to false.	bool	false	no
expiry	The expiry of the auth key in seconds.	number	7776000	no
id_length_limit	Limit id to this many characters (minimum 6). Set to 0 for unlimited length. Set to null for keep the existing setting, which defaults to 0. Does not affect id_full.	number	null	no
instance_type	The instance type to use for the Tailscale Subnet Router EC2 instance.	string	"t3.nano"	no
key_pair_name	The name of the key-pair to associate with the Tailscale Subnet Router EC2 instance.	string	null	no
label_key_case	Controls the letter case of the tags keys (label names) for tags generated by this module. Does not affect keys of tags passed in via the tags input. Possible values: lower, title, upper. Default value: title.	string	null	no
label_order	The order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the id. Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"]. You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present.	list(string)	null	no
label_value_case	Controls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in id, set as tag values, and output by this module individually. Does not affect values of tags passed in via the tags input. Possible values: lower, title, upper and none (no transformation). Set this to title and set delimiter to "" to yield Pascal Case IDs. Default value: lower.	string	null	no
labels_as_tags	Set of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the tags output. Default is to include all labels. Tags with empty values will not be included in the tags output. Set to [] to suppress all generated tags. Notes: The value of the name tag, if included, will be the id, not the name. Unlike other null-label inputs, the initial setting of labels_as_tags cannot be changed in later chained modules. Attempts to change it will be silently ignored.	set(string)	[ "default" ]	no
monitoring_enabled	Enable detailed monitoring of instances	bool	true	no

regex_replace_chars	Terraform regular expression (regex) string. Characters matching the regex will be removed from the ID elements. If not set, "/[^a-zA-Z0-9-]/" is used to remove all characters other than hyphens, letters and digits.	string	null	no
reusable	Indicates if the key is reusable or single-use.	bool	true	no
session_logging_enabled	To enable CloudWatch and S3 session logging or not. Note this does not apply to SSH sessions as AWS cannot log those sessions.	bool	true	no
session_logging_kms_key_alias	Alias name for session_logging KMS Key. This is only applied if 2 conditions are met: (1) session_logging_kms_key_arn is unset, (2) session_logging_encryption_enabled = true.	string	"alias/session_logging"	no
