Overview 🗺️​

Terraform provides a declarative approach to deploying Care on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) using various providers. This guide outlines the steps to initiate and manage the deployment process. 📋

Source: CodeCommit 🔗

The repository contains Terraform scripts that utilize a GCS cloud storage bucket as a backend to deploy Care on GCP. 💻

Deployment Process 🚧​

1. Planning 🤔​

To plan the deployment, run the following command:

ENV=egov-devops make plan

2. Execution 🚀​

To deploy, execute the following command:

ENV=egov-devops make deploy

Deployment Steps 📝​

  1. Enable Cloud Resource Manager API 🔑:

    • Enable the Cloud Resource Manager API from the Google Cloud Console.
    • Create a service account key and store it in the project root directory.

  2. Setup State Bucket 🧱:

  3. Enable Required APIs 🔓:

    • Run gcp-apis script to enable the necessary APIs for deploying Care.

  4. Network Infrastructure Setup 🌐:

    • Use VPC scripts to set up the network infrastructure.

  5. Configure KMS Keys 🔐:

  6. Allocate Storage Buckets 🗄️:

  7. Initiate Postgres Database 🐘:
