terraform-spacelift-policies

This Terraform module allows you to manage [Spacelift Policies]((https://docs.spacelift.io/concepts/policy/) in a flexible way. It enables you to define multiple policies with various configurations, including providing the policy code directly, via a URL, or from a file.

A Spacelift Policy is a set of rules and conditions defined to manage and control the behavior of infrastructure as code (IaC) workflows within the Spacelift platform. Spacelift policies are written using the Rego language, which is part of the Open Policy Agent (OPA) framework. These policies can enforce security, compliance, and operational best practices, ensuring that infrastructure changes adhere to organizational standards.

[!TIP]

Attaching Policies to Spacelift Stacks

Spacelift Policies can be attached to Spacelift Stacks via labels! See the official Spacelift documentation that shows how policies with the label autoattach:* attaches to all stacks and autoattach:label_here attaches to all stacks with the label_here label.

Usage

Here’s an example of how to use this module in your Terraform configuration:

module "spacelift_policies" {
  source = "masterpointio/spacelift/policies"
  # Set a specific version
  # version = "X.X.X"

  policies = {
    # Policy defined with 'body'
    "access-default" = {
      body        = <<-EOT
        package spacelift
        default allow = true
      EOT
      type        = "ACCESS"
      description = "Policy allowing access to resources"
      labels      = ["team:sre", "env:dev"]
    }

    # Policy defined with 'body_url'
    "plan-review-helper" = {
      body_url    = "https://example.com/policies/plan_policy.rego"
      type        = "PLAN"
      description = "Helps humans understand changes, and make informed decisions"
      labels      = ["team:sre", "env:staging"]
    }

    # Policy defined with 'body_file'
    "approval-role-based" = {
      body_file   = "policies/approval.role-based.rego"
      type        = "APPROVAL"
      description = "Gives certain roles the power to approve prod workloads."
      labels      = ["env:prod", "autoattach:needs-approvers"] # This policy will be auto-attached to stacks with the 'needs-approvers' label.
    }
  }
}

Testing your Spacelift OPA Rego Policies

Spacelift Policies use the Open Policy Agent (OPA) Rego language. You can test your policies using the Rego Playground.

Masterpoint has an open-source GitHub Action to automate the testing of OPA Rego policies. It is also showcased on OPA Ecosystem's Integrations page.

Inputs

Name	Description	Type	Default	Required
<a name="input_additional_tag_map"></a> additional_tag_map	Additional key-value pairs to add to each map in `tags_as_list_of_maps`. Not added to `tags` or `id`.<br>This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags<br>and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration.	`map(string)`	`{}`	no
<a name="input_attributes"></a> attributes	ID element. Additional attributes (e.g. `workers` or `cluster`) to add to `id`,<br>in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the<br>end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by the `delimiter`<br>and treated as a single ID element.	`list(string)`	`[]`	no
<a name="input_context"></a> context	Single object for setting entire context at once.<br>See description of individual variables for details.<br>Leave string and numeric variables as `null` to use default value.<br>Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object,<br>except for attributes, tags, and additional_tag_map, which are merged.	`any`	<pre>{<br> "additional_tag_map": {},<br> "attributes": [],<br> "delimiter": null,<br> "descriptor_formats": {},<br> "enabled": true,<br> "environment": null,<br> "id_length_limit": null,<br> "label_key_case": null,<br> "label_order": [],<br> "label_value_case": null,<br> "labels_as_tags": [<br> "unset"<br> ],<br> "name": null,<br> "namespace": null,<br> "regex_replace_chars": null,<br> "stage": null,<br> "tags": {},<br> "tenant": null<br>}</pre>	no
<a name="input_delimiter"></a> delimiter	Delimiter to be used between ID elements.<br>Defaults to `-` (hyphen). Set to `""` to use no delimiter at all.	`string`	`null`	no
<a name="input_descriptor_formats"></a> descriptor_formats	Describe additional descriptors to be output in the `descriptors` output map.<br>Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form<br>`{<br> format = string<br> labels = list(string)<br>}`<br>(Type is `any` so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.)<br>`format` is a Terraform format string to be passed to the `format()` function.<br>`labels` is a list of labels, in order, to pass to `format()` function.<br>Label values will be normalized before being passed to `format()` so they will be<br>identical to how they appear in `id`.<br>Default is `{}` (`descriptors` output will be empty).	`any`	`{}`	no
<a name="input_enabled"></a> enabled	Set to false to prevent the module from creating any resources	`bool`	`null`	no

<a name="input_label_value_case"></a> label_value_case	Controls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in `id`,<br>set as tag values, and output by this module individually.<br>Does not affect values of tags passed in via the `tags` input.<br>Possible values: `lower`, `title`, `upper` and `none` (no transformation).<br>Set this to `title` and set `delimiter` to `""` to yield Pascal Case IDs.<br>Default value: `lower`.	`string`	`null`	no
<a name="input_labels_as_tags"></a> labels_as_tags	Set of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the `tags` output.<br>Default is to include all labels.<br>Tags with empty values will not be included in the `tags` output.<br>Set to `[]` to suppress all generated tags.<br>Notes:<br> The value of the `name` tag, if included, will be the `id`, not the `name`.<br> Unlike other `null-label` inputs, the initial setting of `labels_as_tags` cannot be<br> changed in later chained modules.
