Detailed steps of how to contribute to this project

Migrate the main example from drone.io to GitHub Actions

Current flow for newcomers

1. AWS - create IAM users
2. GitHub - use template, find and replace values
3. drone.io - create a user, activate repository, and create secrets

A better flow

1. AWS - create IAM users
2. GitHub - use template, find and replace values, and create secrets

The service drone.io is amazing. This migration is only for making it easier for newcomers to use this template.

Refactor Bash scripts

Current scripts are not organized with functions, making them less readable, and less modular.

Align all CI/CD services with GitHub Actions

Currently, only the GitHub Actions pipeline is working according to the new PR approval process.

The following CI/CD services need to be updated

• drone.io
• CircleCi
• TravisCI

Migrate hardcoded values to secrets - app_name and region

Find and replace is not so nice, especially when you can't enforce it. It's better to convert app_name and region to secrets. This way, if the secrets are not provided, the pipeline exits.

Add more modules and resources

The current example only presents a VPC module. Proving that this template is useful will be easier when it contains more resources and modules, and a larger variables.tf file

Add notification step when deploying to stg and prd

1. On push (merge) to stg and prd, execute terraform apply (already exists)
2. Add a notification step at the end of the pipeline - try to make it abstract, so it can be used with multiple services. For starters - Slack channel

Add issues templates and labels

Add PR approval mechanism

1. User pushes code to dev - terraform apply on dev (already exists)
2. User creates a PR from dev to stg - terraform apply on stg`
3. GitHub Bot Comments a readable format of the plan in the PR
4. User approves PR merge - terraform apply on stg (already exists)
