Dependencies

A Terraform object can depend on another Terraform object. Lets take the following example:

apiVersion: run.terraform-operator.io/v1alpha1
kind: Terraform
metadata:
  name: terraform-run1
spec:
  terraformVersion: 1.0.2

  module:
    source: IbraheemAlSaady/test/module
    version: 0.0.2

  variables:
    - key: length
      value: "16"

  outputs:
    - key: result
      moduleOutputName: result
---
apiVersion: run.terraform-operator.io/v1alpha1
kind: Terraform
metadata:
  name: terraform-run2
spec:
  terraformVersion: 1.0.2

  module:
    source: IbraheemAlSaady/test/module
    version: 0.0.2

  dependsOn:
    - name: terraform-run1

  variables:
    - key: length
      value: "16"

  outputs:
    - key: result
      moduleOutputName: result

In the example above, the run terraform-run2 will not run and will be in a waiting state until terraform-run1 is in a completed state.

You can also create a dependency on a Terraform object in a different namespace as follows:

...
spec:
  ...
  dependsOn:
    - name: terraform-run1
      namespace: some_other_namespacce
