使用bitbucket git存储库源通过SSH下载模块时出现的问题

Question

When calling a module over from a local source everything went alright, however I decided to refactor the Terraform code to use a git repository for modules.

I created a new repository in our BitBucket account with the name terraform-modules, and refactored the source attribute of the modules to have the following structure:

source     = "git::ssh://git@bitbucket.org:carepaydev/terraform-modules.git//modules/iam/iam_roles/assumable_role"

When calling terraform init I get the following error:

Error downloading modules: Error loading modules: error downloading 'ssh://git@bitbucket.org:<username>/terraform-modules.git': /usr/local/bin/git exited with 128: Cloning into '.terraform/modules/caf541f5e5ccbb1d204bce3b94091014'...
ssh: Could not resolve hostname bitbucket.org:<username>: nodename nor servname provided, or not known
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Cloning the repository using git clone does work. I tried setting the TF_LOG env var to TRACE to see if that would give me more insight, but that did not help.

Any clue why this fails?

Answer 1

Change the colon between ssh://git@bitbucket.org and username/repo to a slash:

ssh://git@bitbucket.org/username/repo

In that format, the colon indicates an alternate port - useful if you want to do ssh://git@altssh.bitbucket.org:443/username/repo , and similar to how you'd specify an alternate port for other protocols like HTTP.

You have a similar error with hashicorp/terraform issue 12696 , when trying to access a private repository.

At least, try and set git config --global core.sshCommand "ssh -Tvv" , in order to see what private key is actually used by Terraform durong the git clone process.
