# Terraform Docker Mirror Layer
|
|
|
|
This directory tracks selected existing Docker containers in Terraform for inventory/documentation purposes.
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
- Mirror specific running containers as Terraform resources.
|
|
- Reconcile imported state into maintainable code.
|
|
- Produce structured outputs/reminders that support documentation workflows.
|
|
|
|
## Boundary with Docker Compose
|
|
|
|
Docker Compose + `services-up.sh` remain runtime composition authority.
|
|
|
|
Terraform resources here are **not** the primary day-to-day deployment mechanism for app services.
|
|
|
|
## Current contents
|
|
|
|
- `main.tf` — import-first workflow notes and minimal scaffolding.
|
|
- `searxng-webapp.tf` — generated/reconciled example container resource.
|
|
- `outputs.tf` — documentation-oriented reminders/outputs.
|
|
- `terraform.tfvars.example` — safe template for local values.
|
|
|
|
## Import/reconciliation workflow
|
|
|
|
1. Start with one existing container.
|
|
2. Import with `import {}` block or `terraform import`.
|
|
3. Inspect state / generated config.
|
|
4. Reduce generated attributes to meaningful, stable arguments.
|
|
5. Keep lifecycle `ignore_changes` narrow and justified.
|
|
6. Iterate until plan is clean for the intended resource.
|
|
|
|
## Guardrails
|
|
|
|
- Do not attempt to mirror all containers in one pass.
|
|
- Do not commit local state or real credentials.
|
|
- Treat generated config as draft input that needs review.
