如何使用Terraform设置安全组规则描述？

Question

It looks like you can now set security group rule descriptions . This is super useful for maintaining whitelists for administrative access.

I can set the description in the AWS console but can't figure out how to set it with Terraform.

My assumption was that if the AWS API allows for it, Terraform can just do it without explicit support for it in the Terraform code. Perhaps that's wishful thinking and we'll have to wait for Terraform to support the new feature, or perhaps I'm just doing it wrong.

I tried simply declaring the description property in the rule declaration (like you would for the description of the security group itself):

    ingress {
        from_port       = 22
        to_port         = 22
        protocol        = "tcp"
        cidr_blocks     = ["123.456.789.123"]
        description     = "some rule description"
        }

Terraform bails in the plan stage with:

aws_security_group.somegroup: ingress.0: invalid or unknown key: description

I also tried setting tags within the rule declaration (like you would for setting the name of the security group):

     ingress {
         from_port       = 22
         ...
      tags {
           "Description" = "some rule description"
           }
      }

Terraform bails in the plan stage with:

aws_security_group.somegroup: ingress.0: invalid or unknown key: tags

Seems that you do not use Terraform api correctly.

You can not set description to aws_security_group_rule resource.

aws_security_group_rule on Terraform.io

resource "aws_security_group_rule" "allow_all" {
  type            = "ingress"
  from_port       = 0
  to_port         = 65535
  protocol        = "tcp"
  cidr_blocks     = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
  prefix_list_ids = ["pl-12c4e678"]

  security_group_id = "sg-123456"
}

You can set description to aws_security_group resource.

aws_security_group on Terraform.io

From their Docs:

resource "aws_security_group" "allow_all" {
  name        = "allow_all"
  description = "Allow all inbound traffic"

  ingress {
    from_port   = 0
    to_port     = 0
    protocol    = "-1"
    cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
  }

  egress {
    from_port       = 0
    to_port         = 0
    protocol        = "-1"
    cidr_blocks     = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
    prefix_list_ids = ["pl-12c4e678"]
  }
}

aws_security_group 's description property should be declared outside of ingress and egress declarations, in its root scope
