CI workflows used by Terraform-(AWS|Azure|GCP)-modules-vmseries repositories.

This is a repository for hosting all reusable workflows used by the Terraform code repositories:

All GitHub actions workflows stored on the target/code repositories are only stubs calling reusable workflows stored here. Since the workflows stored here are used for generic actions like release/PR management this repository provides a way to have common code for actions that should be the same for each repository.

Notice, that those workflows match the way we work with the code repositories. They do not have to necessarily match any use case around releasing and PRs.

Workflow diagram

Generic

The generic diagram below is to visualize dependencies and relationships between workflows in the code and this repository.

    t_start(Start a workflow)-->t_init(Set workflows permissions)
    t_init-->t_call(Call a reusable workflow)
    t_call-..-t_stop(Workflow end)
  end
  subgraph G [Generic Workflows Repository]
    direction TB
    g_start(Init point of a reusable workflow)
    g_init(Set workflow permissions)

Pull Requests

The diagram below shows detailed dependencies between both repositories using the PR CI workflow deploying the infrastructure for tests.

Usage

The code stored here is using Semantic Versioning and follows the GitHub actions way of providing tags for major releases. Therefore one can pin to a tag i.e. v1 which will follow all minor and patch releases.

Please keep in mind that all workflows stored here use permissions property. Keep that in mind when referencing a workflow from this repository in your code - the permission you give to a reusable workflow in your code should match a summary of permissions used by all jobs in a particular reusable workflow.

An example of calling a reusable workflow.

name: Lint PR Title
run-name: "Lint PR - (#${{ github.event.number }}) ${{ github.event.pull_request.title }}"

permissions:
  pull-requests: read

on:
  pull_request_target:
    types:
      - opened
      - edited
      - synchronize

jobs:
  lint_pr_title:
    name: Lint PR
    uses: PaloAltoNetworks/terraform-modules-vmseries-ci-workflows/.github/workflows/lint_pr_title.yml@v0

Inputs/Outputs

Reusable workdlows do not provide any outputs. They do however require inputs, but most of them have reasonable defaults. For details please check inputs section of each workflow. Each input is documented.
