This module creates a resource group, a VPC in that resource group, IAM Access Groups, and invites users to those Access Groups. This module configures the environment by using a JSON Object stored in Cloud Object Storage to allow users to configure and update complex environments as part of a catalog offering.

- As A Module in a Larger Architecture
This module requires a Cloud Object Storage instance with a regional bucket. To use upload.sh, the IBM Cloud CLI with the resource and cos plugins installed.
Currently there is a limitation within the IBM Cloud Catalog that prevents Schematics Templates from using variables other than string, number, and boolean. This module uses upload.sh to upload a configuration variable to a Cloud Object Storage bucket. This object can then be retrieved by a schematics workspace, allowing users to manage complex variables in their environment.
The JSON Object uploaded uses the variables in /landing_zone/variables.tf to create the VPC, access groups, ACL Rules, and Security Group Rules by converting them to JSON notation. By nesting this module, it allows for variable validation to be performed.
An example JSON Object can be found in vpc-example.json

}Using upload.sh allows users to create and update JSON objects in Cloud Object Storage.
sh ./upload.sh <cos instance name> <cos bucket name> <object name> <file path>Optionally a fifth parameter can be passed to upload.sh, the name of the schematics workspace created by a catalog entry. This will force an apply action to run in that workspace after a new object has been uploaded to COS.
The iam module creates any number of access groups, with any number of policies.
The flexible access_groups variable allows users to dynamically create groups with complex rules using a single object.
Users can be invited to these groups. Users invited to these access groups will be added to the access group even if they have not yet accepted the invite to the account. (If you do not need to invite users, delete ./iam/invite_users.tf and remove invite_users fom the access_group variable definition.)

)This module creates a VPC in a resource group with optional Classic Access. It also allows users to update the default vpc security group with additional rules.
Default security group rules are converted from a list to an object to ensure that adding, deleting, or changing the order of rules listed will not force unwanted changes. Example:
ibm_is_security_group_rule.default_vpc_rule["allow-inbound-ping"]
ibm_is_security_group_rule.default_vpc_rule["allow-inbound-ssh"]This module allows a user to optionally create public gateways in the VPC in each of the three zones of the VPC's region.
This module creates a network ACL with any number of rules. (Note: by default, VPC Network ACLs have a maximum of 25 rules.) Any subnets created by this module will be connected to this ACL
The subnet module allows users to create subnets in 1, 2, or 3 zones. Public gateways can be optionally attached to each subnet.
A CIDR block is created in the VPC for each subnet that will be provisioned
The type of the subnets variable is as follows:
object({
zone-1 = list(object({
name = string
cidr = string
public_gateway = optional(bool)
}))
zone-2 = list(object({
name = string
cidr = string
public_gateway = optional(bool)
}))
zone-3 = list(object({
name = string
cidr = string
public_gateway = optional(bool)
}))
})While zone-1, zone-2, and zone-3 are all lists, these lists are converted into an object before the resources are provisioned. This ensures that the addition or deletion of subnets will affect only the added or deleted subnets. Example:
module.subnets.ibm_is_subnet.subnet["gcat-multizone-subnet-a"]
module.subnets.ibm_is_subnet.subnet["gcat-multizone-subnet-b"]
module.subnets.ibm_is_subnet.subnet["gcat-multizone-subnet-c"]
module.subnets.ibm_is_vpc_address_prefix.subnet_prefix["gcat-multizone-subnet-a"]
