terraform-modules

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams standardize and reuse Terraform infrastructure code by providing a rigorous module architecture, promoting consistency, and reducing duplication across projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Standard Module Structure: main.tf, variables.tf, outputs.tf, and versions.tf to define resources, inputs, outputs, and provider constraints.
• Module Composition & Nesting: guidance on splitting functionality into child modules and composing them in a flat, reusable way.
• Provider Inheritance & Interaction: best practices for provider configuration propagation and explicit provider usage in complex deployments.
• Examples & Validation: how to document, test, and validate module interfaces with inputs, outputs, and examples.

Quick Start

Create a minimal Terraform module named terraform-aws-example that includes main.tf, variables.tf, outputs.tf, and versions.tf with a single aws provider block, plus an examples/ folder showing basic usage.
