GTM Domains
Usage
akamai terraform [global flags] export-domain [flags] <domain>
Flags:
--tfworkpath path Directory used to store files created when running commands. (default: current directory)
--resources Creates a JSON-formatted resource file for import: <domain>_resources.json. The createconfig flag uses this file as an input. (default: false)
--createconfig Creates these Terraform configuration files based on the values in <domain>_resources.json: <domain>.tf and gtmvars.tf. Also creates this import script: <domain>_import.script. (default: false)
Export list of all domain objects. Written in json format to _resources.json
$ akamai terraform export-domain --resources example.akadns.net
Generate Terraform GTM Domain configuration file .tf, vars config file, gtmvars.tf, and import script, _resource_import.script
$ akamai terraform export-domain --createconfig example.akadns.net
Domain Notes:
- Mapping GTM entity names to TF resource names may require normalization. Invalid TF resource name characters will be replaced by underscores, '_' in config generation.
EdgeDNS Zones
Usage
akamai terraform [global flags] export-zone [flags] <zone>
Flags:
--tfworkpath path Directory used to store files created when running commands. (default: current directory)
--resources Creates a JSON-formatted resource file for import: <zone>_resources.json. The createconfig flag uses this file as an input. (default: false)
--createconfig Creates these Terraform configuration files based on the values in <zone>_resources.json: <zone>.tf and dnsvars.tf. (default: false)
--importscript Creates import script for generated Terraform configuration script (<zone>_import.script) files. (default: false)
--segmentconfig Use with the createconfig flag to group and segment records by name into separate config files. (default: false)
--configonly Directive for createconfig. Create entire Terraform zone and recordsets configuration (<zone>.tf), dnsvars.tf. Saves zone config for
importscript. Ignores any existing resource JSON file. (default: false)
--namesonly Directive for both resource gathering and config generation. All record set types assumed. (default: false)
--recordname value Used in resources gathering or with configonly to filter recordsets. Multiple recordname flags may be specified.
$ akamai terraform export-zone --resources testprimaryzone.com
$ akamai terraform export-zone --createconfig testprimaryzone.com
Generate Zone import script, _resource_import.script
$ akamai terraform export-zone --importscript testprimaryzone.com
Zone Notes
- The resources directive generates a _resources.json file for consumption by createconfig
- The createconfig directive generates a _zoneconfig.json file for consumption by importscript
Advanced options for --resources
- recordname - filters generated resources list by record name(s)
- namesonly - Generates resource file with recordset names only. All associated Types will be represented.
Advanced options for --createconfig
- namesonly - Resources for all associated Types will be generated
- segmentconfig - Generate a modularized configuration.
- configonly - Generates a zone configuration without JSON itemization. The configuration generated varies based on which set of flags you use.
