属性“tags”的值不合适：元素“lm:FunctionalArea”：需要字符串

Question

I'm running into this error:

Inappropriate value for attribute "tags": element "lm:FunctionalArea": string required.

I'm building a module in gitlab that is being imported into an instance of Terraform Enterprise. Basically, we are going to pull in a common list of tags that can be imported onto any resource just by using the module.

Here is the series of scripts that make up the module:

main.tf

locals {

 

  // lm_BusinessArea         = ["EO"]

  // lm_FunctionalArea       = ["TechOffice"]

  // automatic_daily_startup = ["disabled"]

  // automatic_daily_shutdown = ["enabled"]

  // Name = ["Terraform Enterprise EC2 Instance"]

 

  lm_BusinessArea         = "EO"

  lm_FunctionalArea       = "TechOffice"

  automatic_daily_startup = "disabled"

  automatic_daily_shutdown = "enabled"

  Name = "Terraform Enterprise EC2 Instance"

 

  default_tags_map = {

     "lmBusinessArea"       = local.lm_BusinessArea

     "lm:FunctionalArea"       = local.lm_FunctionalArea

     "automatic_daily_startup"       = local.automatic_daily_startup

     "automatic_daily_shutdown" = local.automatic_daily_shutdown

     "Name" = local.Name

  }

 

}

 

outputs.tf

output "default_tags" {

  description = "Map containing the default ITREx Tag list"

  value       = local.default_tags_map

}

 

Now this is an example of the module being called in another terraform build

(some information was replaced with x's due to its sensitivity)

module "itrex-common-tags" {

  source  = "terraform.us.lmco.com/eo-itrex/itrex-common-tags/aws"

  version = "1.0.0"

}

 

resource "aws_instance" "itrex_test_instance" {

  ami             = "ami-xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

  instance_type   = "t3.medium"

  security_groups  = ["sg-xxxxxxxxxxxxx"]

  subnet_id       = "subnet-xxxxxxxxxxxx"

  key_name        = "itrex-key"

 

  tags = module.itrex-common-tags.default_tags

}

 

Now the problem is that it doesn't recognize the values in my main.tf script as strings even with the brackets removed. This is the error I receive in my terraform enterprise UI.

Error: Incorrect attribute value type

on main.tf line 13, in resource "aws_instance" "itrex_test_instance":

  tags = module.itrex-common-tags.default_tags

Inappropriate value for attribute "tags": element "lm:FunctionalArea": string required.

I'm stumped fellas, I KNOW i'm defining these values as strings however, when they are being referenced something gets lost in translation.

This questions was similar to this too, but the answer just didn't help me at all.

This is as thorough as I can be in stating this problem. This is my real code and nothing else an be added to this question to make it more clear. Terraform is not recognizing my local values as strings whether they are in brackets or not, and I believe there is something being lost in translation when the instance resource tries to call the tagging module.

Answer 1

I see you have commented out this code

// lm_BusinessArea         = ["EO"]
// lm_FunctionalArea       = ["TechOffice"]
// automatic_daily_startup = ["disabled"]
// automatic_daily_shutdown = ["enabled"]
// Name = ["Terraform Enterprise EC2 Instance"]

This is the syntax you should be using instead of bracketless strings. Also you have your tag values in quotations and they should be like this without the quotations

lmBusinessArea       = local.lm_BusinessArea
