This project is a terraform provider for pingdom.
This currently only supports working with basic HTTP and ping checks.
You should have a working Go environment setup. If not check out the Go getting started guide.
This project uses Go Modules for dependency management. To fetch all dependencies run go get
inside this repository.
go get github.com/lifechurch/terraform-provider-pingdom
The binary will then be available at ~/go/bin/terraform-provider-pingdom
, unless you've set $GOPATH
, in which case you'll find it at $GOPATH/bin
You will need to install the binary as a terraform third party plugin. Terraform will then pick up the binary from the local filesystem when you run terraform init
.
ln -s ~/go/bin/terraform-provider-pingdom ~/.terraform.d/plugins/$(uname | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')_amd64/terraform-provider-pingdom_v$(date %Y.%m.%d)
Updates can now be applied by re-running go get -u github.com/lifechurch/terraform-provider-pingdom
.
Basic Check
variable "pingdom_api_token" {}
provider "pingdom" {
api_token = "${var.pingdom_api_token}"
}
resource "pingdom_check" "example" {

Apply with:
terraform apply \

Using attributes from other resources

The following common attributes for all check types can be set:
name - (Required) The name of the check
host - (Required) The hostname to check. Should be in the format example.com
.
resolution - (Required) The time in minutes between each check. Allowed values: (1,5,15,30,60).
type - (Required) The check type. Allowed values: (http, ping).
sendnotificationwhendown - The number of consecutive failed checks required to trigger an alert. Values of 0 are ignored.
notifyagainevery - Notify again after n results. A value of 0 means no additional notifications will be sent.
notifywhenbackup - Notify when backup.
integrationids - List of integer integration IDs (defined by webhook URL) that will be triggered by the alerts. The ID can be extracted from the integrations page URL on the pingdom website.
userids - List of integer user IDs that will be notified when the check is down.
teamids - List of integer team IDs that will be notified when the check is down.
For the HTTP checks, you can set these attributes:
url - Target path on server.
encryption - Enable encryption in the HTTP check (aka HTTPS).
port - Target port for HTTP checks.
username - Username for target HTTP authentication.
password - Password for target HTTP authentication.
shouldcontain - Target site should contain this string.
shouldnotcontain - Target site should NOT contain this string. Not allowed defined together with shouldcontain
.
postdata - Data that should be posted to the web page, for example submission data for a sign-up or login form. The data needs to be formatted in the same way as a web browser would send it to the web server.
requestheaders - Custom HTTP headers. It should be a hash with pairs, like { "header_name" = "header_content" }
tags - List of tags the check should contain. Should be in the format "tagA,tagB"
probefilters - Region from which the check should originate. One of NA, EU, APAC, or LATAM. Should be in the format "region:NA"
ssl_down_days_before - Treat the target site as down if a certificate expires within the given number of days.
For the TCP checks, you can set these attributes:
port - Target port for TCP checks.
stringtosend - (optional) This string will be sent to the port
stringtoexpect - (optional) This string must be returned by the remote host for the check to pass
The following attributes are exported:
id The ID of the Pingdom check
