Component: datadog-configuration

This component is responsible for provisioning SSM or ASM entries for Datadog API keys.

It's required that the DataDog API and APP secret keys are available in the var.datadog_secrets_source_store_account account in AWS SSM Parameter Store at the /datadog/%v/datadog_app_key paths (where %v are the corresponding account names).

This component copies keys from the source account (e.g. auto) to the destination account where this is being deployed. The purpose of using this formatted copying of keys handles a couple of problems.

1. The keys are needed in each account where datadog resources will be deployed.
2. The keys might need to be different per account or tenant, or any subset of accounts.
3. If the keys need to be rotated they can be rotated from a single management account.

This module also has a submodule which allows other resources to quickly use it to create a datadog provider.

See Datadog's documentation about provisioning keys for more information.

Usage

Stack Level: Global

This component should be deployed to every account where you want to provision datadog resources. This is usually every account except root and identity

Here's an example snippet for how to use this component. It's suggested to apply this component to all accounts which you want to track AWS metrics with DataDog. In this example we use the key paths /datadog/%v/datadog_api_key and /datadog/%v/datadog_app_key where %v is default, this can be changed through datadog_app_secret_key & datadog_api_secret_key variables. The output Keys in the deployed account will be /datadog/datadog_api_key and /datadog/datadog_app_key.

  enabled = true
  context = module.this.context
}

provider "datadog" {
  api_key  = module.datadog_configuration.datadog_api_key
  app_key  = module.datadog_configuration.datadog_app_key
  api_url  = module.datadog_configuration.datadog_api_url
  validate = local.enabled
}

Inputs

Name	Description	Type	Default	Required
additional_tag_map	Additional key-value pairs to add to each map in tags_as_list_of_maps. Not added to tags or id. This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration.	map(string)	{}	no
attributes	ID element. Additional attributes (e.g. workers or cluster) to add to id, in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by the delimiter and treated as a single ID element.	list(string)	[]	no
context	Single object for setting entire context at once. See description of individual variables for details. Leave string and numeric variables as null to use default value. Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object, except for attributes, tags, and additional_tag_map, which are merged.	any	{ "additional_tag_map": {}, "attributes": [], "delimiter": null, "descriptor_formats": {}, "enabled": true, "environment": null, "id_length_limit": null, "label_key_case": null, "label_order": [], "label_value_case": null, "labels_as_tags": [ "unset" ], "name": null, "namespace": null, "regex_replace_chars": null, "stage": null, "tags": {}, "tenant": null }	no
datadog_api_secret_key	The name of the Datadog API secret	string	"default"	no
datadog_api_secret_key_source_pattern	The format string (%v will be replaced by the var.datadog_api_secret_key) for the key of the Datadog API secret in the source account	string	"/datadog/%v/datadog_api_key"	no
datadog_api_secret_key_target_pattern	The format string (%v will be replaced by the var.datadog_api_secret_key) for the key of the Datadog API secret in the target account	string	"/datadog/datadog_api_key"	no
datadog_app_secret_key	The name of the Datadog APP secret	string	"default"	no
datadog_app_secret_key_source_pattern	The format string (%v will be replaced by the var.datadog_app_secret_key) for the key of the Datadog APP secret in the source account	string	"/datadog/%v/datadog_app_key"	no
datadog_app_secret_key_target_pattern	The format string (%v will be replaced by the var.datadog_api_secret_key) for the key of the Datadog APP secret in the target account	string	"/datadog/datadog_app_key"	no
datadog_secrets_source_store_account_region	Region for holding Secret Store Datadog Keys, leave as null to use the same region as the stack	string	null	no
datadog_secrets_source_store_account_stage	Stage holding Secret Store for Datadog API and app keys.	string	"auto"	no
datadog_secrets_source_store_account_tenant	Tenant holding Secret Store for Datadog API and app keys.	string	"core"	no
datadog_secrets_store_type	Secret Store type for Datadog API and app keys. Valid values: SSM, ASM	string	"SSM"	no
datadog_site_url	The Datadog Site URL, https://docs.datadoghq.com/getting_started/site/	string	null	no
delimiter	Delimiter to be used between ID elements. Defaults to - (hyphen). Set to "" to use no delimiter at all.	string	null	no
descriptor_formats	Describe additional descriptors to be output in the descriptors output map. Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form {<br/> format = string<br/> labels = list(string)<br/>} (Type is any so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.) format is a Terraform format string to be passed to the format() function. labels is a list of labels, in order, to pass to format() function. Label values will be normalized before being passed to format() so they will be identical to how they appear in id. Default is {} (descriptors output will be empty).	any	{}	no
enabled	Set to false to prevent the module from creating any resources	bool	null	no
environment	ID element. Usually used for region e.g. 'uw2', 'us-west-2', OR role 'prod', 'staging', 'dev', 'UAT'	string	null	no
id_length_limit	Limit id to this many characters (minimum 6). Set to 0 for unlimited length. Set to null for keep the existing setting, which defaults to 0. Does not affect id_full.	number	null	no
label_key_case	Controls the letter case of the tags keys (label names) for tags generated by this module. Does not affect keys of tags passed in via the tags input. Possible values: lower, title, upper. Default value: title.	string	null	no
label_order	The order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the id. Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"]. You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present.	list(string)	null	no
label_value_case	Controls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in id, set as tag values, and output by this module individually. Does not affect values of tags passed in via the tags input. Possible values: lower, title, upper and none (no transformation). Set this to title and set delimiter to "" to yield Pascal Case IDs. Default value: lower.	string	null	no
labels_as_tags	Set of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the tags output. Default is to include all labels. Tags with empty values will not be included in the tags output. Set to [] to suppress all generated tags. Notes: The value of the name tag, if included, will be the id, not the name. Unlike other null-label inputs, the initial setting of labels_as_tags cannot be changed in later chained modules. Attempts to change it will be silently ignored.	set(string)	[ "default" ]	no
name	ID element. Usually the component or solution name, e.g. 'app' or 'jenkins'. This is the only ID element not also included as a tag. The "name" tag is set to the full id string. There is no tag with the value of the name input.	string	null	no
namespace	ID element. Usually an abbreviation of your organization name, e.g. 'eg' or 'cp', to help ensure generated IDs are globally unique	string	null	no
regex_replace_chars	Terraform regular expression (regex) string. Characters matching the regex will be removed from the ID elements. If not set, "/[^a-zA-Z0-9-]/" is used to remove all characters other than hyphens, letters and digits.	string	null	no
