Preperation

Before you get started, I'd highly recommend popping to the market board and picking up two Cryptic Seals if you're a non-caster, or three Damascene Cloth if you're a caster. These can be turned into an NPC near the Pier #1 aetherite in Kugane called Nostalgic Fellow. He'll give you a chestpiece with Elemental Bonus on it, which increases your damage done and decreases your damage taken in all Eureka zones. Note for Materia players: Prices for these materials are extremely high currently due to lack of supply. Prices will come down as people progress through Eureka and start running Baldesion Arsonal but for now, if you're not rolling in gil, I'd suggest skipping it. The bonus is nice, and the chest-piece you get remains Best in Slot for all Eureka content, but it's absolutely not essential.

You can get two more pieces of magicite, but that involves a lot of farming, luck or gil. If you're chasing just the armour for glam, forget about this.

Semantic Versioning for IAC - iacver

When it comes to Infrastructure As Code, the software versioning system known as Semantic Versioning (semver.org) works from an API perspective but falls short elsewhere.

In short a semver is broken down into three "octets" and optional, additional information tagged to the end. Here are a few examples: v1.0.1, v3.1.1, v1.15.0-4. Each of these is a valid semver.

If we take the first example - v1.0.1 - and change the first octet, 1, to 2, we're saying the following:

There has been a change to this code and that change is not compatible with how you're using v1.0.1. The change is a breaking change. You should take care to introduce version v2.0.0 into your code or your environment.

Terraform Modules

When developing new modules, or editing existing ones, the following standards should be met to ensure a consistent workflow is used.

Stop! Do you need to write a module?

But before we delve into the rules surrounding modules, considering the following: do you need to write a module to begin with? You should consider copying code before you consider making a module - more often than not it that code you’re writing doesn’t need to be a module

This is a big one because modules are great and it’s easy to get carried away with them, but they’re also not the ideal choice in most cases. There are some (loose) rules regarding modules that should be answered before you begin development…

Hello!

A few months back I posted on Hacker News and Reddit about my Ansible and Terraform Crash Courses over at https://www.thecloud.coach/. They were a big success, attracting 3,000+ signups, and now I'd like to tell you about my up and coming live stream on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/thecloudcoach

I'll be building a simple infrastructure on AWS to host an MkDocs instance. I'll be using modern tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Packer, GitLab, and more.

Throughout the life of the stream we will implement all the code together, write out documentation (hence hosing an MkDocs instance!), implement CI/CD, monitoring, and much more. Everything will be open source and anyone can issue pull requests and make suggestions.

The schedule is Wednesday and Sunday, 1800 UTC+10 (Brisbane, Australia) and I'll be streaming for three hours. Perhaps more depending on how things go.
