🌟 Terraform UUID Generator 🎲

📝 Overview

terraform-uuid-generator is a lightweight Terraform configuration designed to generate unique identifiers during each execution. This utility is particularly useful for scenarios requiring runtime tracking, debugging, or creating consistently unique markers across terraform apply operations.

🚀 Features

• Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) Generation: Creates a new UUID on every Terraform execution
• Execution Signature: Produces a random identifier based on the current runtime
• Zero Infrastructure Dependency: No cloud resources or external dependencies required
• Lightweight and Simple: Minimal configuration with maximum utility

🔧 Prerequisites

• Terraform 1.0+
• HashiCorp Random Provider

💻 Usage

Initialization

terraform init

Apply Configuration

terraform apply

Each apply will generate new unique identifiers, which can be viewed in the output.

🧩 Outputs

• unique_id: A UUID generated during Terraform execution
• execution_signature: A random hexadecimal identifier representing the runtime instance

🤔 Use Cases

• Tracking Terraform execution instances
• Debugging and logging
• Creating unique runtime markers
• Forcing configuration refreshes

🛡️ Security

This configuration generates random identifiers and does not interact with any external systems or create infrastructure.
