In some places in my tf file, I am providing an availability_zone_id. E.g.
variable "az_id" { }
resource "aws_subnet" "main" {
vpc_id = "${aws_vpc.main.id}"
cidr_block = "${var.subnet_cidr_block}"
availability_zone_id = "${var.az_id}"
map_public_ip_on_launch = true
}
... and in the my.tfvars file:
az_id = "euw2-az1"
In other places, I need to provide an availablity_zone name. E.g.
resource "aws_ebs_volume" "controller-ebs-sdb" {
availability_zone = "${var.az}"
size = 1024
type = "gp2"
}
Is there a way in terraform to lookup the availability zone name from the availability zone id?
Chris Snow :
I fixed this by creating a variable az and removing the az_id\n\naz = \"eu-west-2a\"\n\n\n... and adding a data element\n\ndata \"aws_availability_zone\" \"main\" {\n name = \"${var.az}\"\n}\n\nresource \"aws_subnet\" \"main\" { \n ... \n availability_zone_id = \"${data.aws_availability_zone.main.zone_id}\" \n ... \n} \n\nresource \"aws_ebs_volume\" \"controller-ebs-sdb\" {\n availability_zone = \"${var.az}\"\n ...\n}\n",
