Terraform Module Variables - Daily Check-in for July 7, 2020

We are going to look at how root modules interact with child modules and how variables and outputs are used to pass information between the two.

Great video. Been wondering how the locals are passed to the variables in child modules and why some variables have defaults and others dont. very useful. thank you

New to Terraform and have two specific questions.
1- What is the purpose of the "terraform" block in a tf file
2- I heard about it quite a bit but still confused. What is a workspace?

Hello Ned, thanks for the tuts. How do you refer to a member of a list in another module or as an output instead of the whole list.

Videos about these topics would be good:
- Testing GCP module (maybe for BigQuery, GKE) using Kitchen.
- Best practices when writing tf modules for your organisations' private module registry.

Hello Ned,
Good video. Would it be possible for you to share a video transform map with tfvars

Can someone make a simple video on module terms (child modules, variables you can pass, parent modue, etc etc ) > No extra jargons, just explain it simple terms. This is this and this is that ! This variable call this and that... you get my point !
