# Terraform AWS Jenkins Module ## Overview The `terraform-aws-jenkins` module provisions a Jenkins CI/CD infrastructure on AWS with auto-scaling capabilities, load balancing, and persistent storage support. ⚠️ **WARNING**: This module is currently in an incomplete state and requires additional development before production use. ## Intended Features - Jenkins master server on EC2 - Auto Scaling Group for high availability - Elastic Load Balancer for traffic distribution - Persistent EBS volume for Jenkins data - SSL/TLS support via ACM certificates - Placement group for optimized network performance ## Current Status ### Known Issues This module contains several implementation issues that need to be resolved: 1. **Syntax Errors**: - Incorrect variable interpolation syntax - Malformed resource references 2. **Missing Resources**: - Placement group resource not defined - Launch configuration resource not defined - Subnet resources referenced but not created - Security group configuration missing 3. **Missing Outputs**: - No outputs.tf file - Load Balancer DNS, Auto Scaling Group details not exposed 4. **Hardcoded Values**: - Environment-specific values embedded (region, AMI ID, volume ID) - Domain-specific Jenkins URL ### Resources (Partial Implementation) The module attempts to create: - **AWS Auto Scaling Group** - Single instance configuration - **AWS Placement Group** (referenced, not defined) - **AWS Launch Configuration** (referenced, not defined) - **AWS Elastic Load Balancer** (implied by health check) - **AWS EBS Volume** (referenced, not created) ## Variables | Variable | Type | Default | Description | |----------|------|---------|-------------| | `project` | string | Required | Project name | | `env` | string | Required | Environment/Stage identifier | | `jenkins_version` | string | `""` | Version of Jenkins to install | | `jenkins_url` | string | `stg-jenkins.build.edubase.malmberg.nl` | Jenkins URL | | `loadbalancer_name` | string | `stg-jenkins` | ELB name | | `loadbalancer_certificate` | string | `arn:aws:acm:...` | ACM certificate ARN for HTTPS | | `ami_id` | string | `ami-03a779dec4508895a` | AMI ID for Jenkins instance | | `instance_type` | string | `c5.xlarge` | EC2 instance type | | `persistent_volume_id` | string | `vol-03dde8c1fabe3de46` | EBS volume ID for persistence | ## Prerequisites - Existing VPC with subnets - Pre-existing ACM SSL certificate - Pre-existing EBS volume for persistent storage - AMI with Jenkins pre-installed or provisioning script - Route53 DNS configuration ## Development Roadmap Before this module can be used in production: 1. Fix syntax errors and variable interpolation 2. Define missing resources (placement group, launch configuration) 3. Implement security groups 4. Create outputs.tf with essential values 5. Parameterize hardcoded values 6. Add IAM role configuration 7. Implement proper error handling 8. Add comprehensive examples 9. Write integration tests ## Intended Usage Pattern ```hcl # Example (NOT WORKING - for reference only) module "jenkins" { source = "path/to/terraform-aws-jenkins" project = "myproject" env = "staging" jenkins_version = "2.361.1" jenkins_url = "jenkins.example.com" loadbalancer_name = "jenkins-lb" loadbalancer_certificate = "arn:aws:acm:region:account:certificate/..." ami_id = "ami-xxxxxxxxx" instance_type = "c5.xlarge" persistent_volume_id = "vol-xxxxxxxxx" } ``` ## Contributing Contributions to complete this module are welcome. Priority areas: - Fix existing syntax errors - Complete resource definitions - Add comprehensive documentation - Implement security best practices - Add examples and tests ## License See project license file. ## Authors Maintained by WebBuildYourCloud team. --- **Note**: Do not use this module in production environments until the known issues have been resolved.
