How do I configure VCS automation?

VCS automation is easily configured by simply creating a workspace that is linked to VCS repository and branch.

This workspace to VCS link causes automatic Terraform runs when either of the following two events occur.

• Pull request against the branch causes a “dry run”. In Scalr IaCP a dry run comprises the following steps.

  • Terraform plan.

  • Cost estimation.

  • Policy checks using Open Policy Agent.

• Commit/Merge to branch causes a full run (terraform apply) that will deploy the infrastructure.

  • Note that “Auto Apply” is an option in the workspace configuration.
