            Create CloudFormation Yaml from existing RDS DB instance (Aurora PostgreSQL)
            Asked 2020-Jun-05 at 00:59

            I have an RDS DB instance (Aurora PostgreSQL) setup in my AWS account. This was created manually using AWS Console. I now want to create CloudFormation template Yaml for that DB, which I can use to create the DB later if needed. That will also help me replicate the DB in another environment. I would also use that as part of my Infrastructure automation.

            ...

            ANSWER

            Unfortunately, there is no such functionality provided by AWS.

            However, you mean hear about two options that people could wrongfully recommend.

            CloudFormer

            CloudFormer is a template creation beta tool that creates an AWS CloudFormation template from existing AWS resources in your account. You select any supported AWS resources that are running in your account, and CloudFormer creates a template in an Amazon S3 bucket.

            Although it sounds good, the tool is no longer maintained and its not reliable (for years in beta).

            Importing Existing Resources Into a Stack

            Often people mistakenly think that this "generates yaml" for you from existing resources. The truth is that it does not generate template files for you. You have to write your own template which matches your resource exactly, before you can import any resource under control to CloudFormation stack.

            Your only options is to manually write the template for the RDS and import it, or look for an external tools that could reverse-engineer yaml templates from existing resources.

            Azure DevOps CI with Web Apps for Containers
            Asked 2020-Mar-16 at 08:59

            I'm struggling to set up a CI process for a web application in Azure. I'm used to deploying built code directly into Web Apps in Azure but decided to use docker this time.

            In the build pipeline, I build the docker images and push them to an Azure Container Registry, tagged with the latest build number. In the release pipeline (which has DEV, TEST and PROD), I need to deploy those images to the Web Apps of each environment. There are 2 relevant tasks available in Azure releases: "Azure App Service deploy" and "Azure Web App for Containers". Neither of these allow the image source for the Web App to be set to Azure Conntainer Registry. Instead they take custom registry/repository names and set the image source in the Web App to Private Registry, which then requires login and password. I'm also deploying all Azure resources using ARM templates so I don't like the idea of configuring credentials when the 2 resources (the Registry and the Web App) are integrated already. Ideally, I would be able to set the Web App to use the repository and tag in Azure Container Registry that I specify in the release. I even tried to manually configure the Web Apps first with specific repositories and tags, and then tried to change the tags used by the Web Apps with the release (with the tasks I mentioned) but it didn't work. The tags stay the same.

            Another option I considered was to configure all Web Apps to specific and permanent repositories and tags (e.g. "dev-latest") from the start (which doesn't fit well with ARM deployments since the containers need to exist in the Registry before the Web Apps can be configured so my infrastructure automation is incomplete), enable "Continuous Deployment" in the Web Apps and then tag the latest pushed repositories accordingly in the release so they would be picked up by Web Apps. I could not find a reasoble way to add tags to existing repositories in the Registry.

            What is Azure best practice for CI with containerised web apps? How do people actually build their containers and then deploy them to each environment?

            Just set up a CI pipeline for building an image and pushing it to a container registry.

            You could then use both Azure App Service deploy and Azure Web App for Containers task to handle the deploy.

            The Azure WebApp Container task similar to other built-in Azure tasks, requires an Azure service connection as an input. The Azure service connection stores the credentials to connect from Azure Pipelines or Azure DevOps Server to Azure.

            I'm also deploying all Azure resources using ARM templates so I don't like the idea of configuring credentials when the 2 resources (the Registry and the Web App)

            You could also be able to Deploy Azure Web App for Containers with ARM and Azure DevOps.

            How do people actually build their containers and then deploy them to each environment?

            Vulnerabilities

            No vulnerabilities reported

            Install tf-helper

            Ensure that you have the curl, jq, and readlink commands installed. Clone this repository to a convenient place on your local machine and do one of the following:. The default branch of this repository is release. Development occurs in the non-default branch master. When a release is made, release will be updated to the stable release, and a pull on the default branch will upgrade from stable release to stable release.
            Add the tfh/bin directory to your PATH environment variable. For example: git clone git@github.com:hashicorp-community/tf-helper.git cd tfh-helper/tfh/bin echo "export PATH=$PWD:\$PATH" >> ~/.bash_profile
            Symlink the tfh/bin/tfh executable into a directory that's already included in your PATH. For example: git clone git@github.com:hashicorp-community/tf-helper.git cd tf-helper/tfh/bin ln -s $PWD/tfh /usr/local/bin/tfh
            Run the tfh command with its full path. (For example: /usr/local/src/tf-helper/tfh/bin/tfh pushconfig)
            The tfh program has some subcommands that can be used without any configuration, however most of the subcommands of interest require configuring access to Terraform Enterprise. There are four ways to configure tfh for TFE use.
            Use -token TOKEN with each tfh run.
            Export the environment varible TFH_token: export TFH_token=TOKEN
            Put the line TFH_token=TOKEN in the configuration file located at ~/.tfh/tfhrc
            Create a curlrc in the configuration directory located at ~/tfh/curlrc
            -curlrc argument on command line
            -token argument on command line
            Any valid curlrc source - environment variable, config file, default
            Any valid token source - environment variable, config file
            Configuration file entry of TFH_org=org_name in ~/.tfh/tfhrc
            Environment variable export TFH_org=org_name
            Command line option -org org_name
            Configuration file entry of TFH_name=ws_name in ~/.tfh/tfhrc
            Environment variable export TFH_name=ws_name
            Command line option -name ws_name
            Configuration file entry of TFH_hostname=host in ~/.tfh/tfhrc
            Environment variable export TFH_hostname=host
            Command line option -hostname host
