Concatenate declared variable with random string-CodePudding

It is possible, using Terratest, to declare a tfvars file with the following variable:

bar = {
  name   = "test"
  domain = "test.com"
  regions = [
    { location = "France Central", alias = "france" }
  ]
}

But include a random prefix to the bar.domain string inside the go code?

I'm using terraformOptions as follows:

terraformOptions := &terraform.Options{
        TerraformDir: sourcePath,
        VarFiles:     []string{variablesPath   "/integration.tfvars"},
}

CodePudding user response：

It is not ideal for one to make use of the tfvars file directly to take the input in case of tests. More on this here

To answer your question :

You can use something similar to this :

options := terraform.Options{
        TerraformDir: "sourcePath",
        Vars: map[string]interface{}{
                "name":  "test",
                "domain": addRandomprefix() "test.com",
                "region ":    map[string]interface{}{
                    "location" : "France Central",
                    "alias" : "france",
                },
        },
    }

Just create your own custom addRandomprefix() method. I hope this helps :)
