Terraform module for Nginx Ingress Controller

Terraform module used to create nginx ingress controller in Kubernetes via Helm. With simple syntax.

Usage

IngressClass

By default, all new ingresses use this controller as default.

If you have already default IngressClass specified, please set ingress_class_is_default=false.
In this case you should specify ingressClassName to your ingress manually.

GCP

resource "google_compute_address" "ingress_ip_address" {
  name = "nginx-controller"
}

module "nginx-controller" {
  source  = "terraform-iaac/nginx-controller/helm"

  ip_address = google_compute_address.ingress_ip_address.address
}

AWS

module "nginx-controller" {
  source  = "terraform-iaac/nginx-controller/helm"

  additional_set = [
    {
      name  = "controller.service.annotations.service\\.beta\\.kubernetes\\.io/aws-load-balancer-type"
      value = "nlb"
      type  = "string"
    },
    {
      name  = "controller.service.annotations.service\\.beta\\.kubernetes\\.io/aws-load-balancer-cross-zone-load-balancing-enabled"
      value = "true"
      type  = "string"
    }
  ]
}
