alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance Resource

Use the alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance InSpec audit resource to test detailed properties of an individual ApsaraDB RDS instance.

ApsaraDB RDS supports the MySQL, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, PPAS (highly compatible with Oracle) and MariaDB database engines.

Syntax

An alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance resource block uses resource parameters to search for an ApsaraDB RDS instance, and then tests that RDS instance. If no RDS instances match, no error is raised, but the exists matcher will return false and all properties will be nil.

describe alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance('test-instance-id') do
  it { should exist }
end

You can also use hash syntax:

describe alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance(db_instance_id: 'test-instance-id') do
  it { should exist }
end

Parameters

db_instance_id (required)

This resource accepts a single parameter, the user-supplied instance identifier. This can be passed either as a string if it is the only parameter, or using hash syntax, db_instance_id: 'value'.

region (optional)

The Alicloud Region ID - see the Alicloud documentation on Regions and Zones. If provided, it must be passed as region: 'value'. If not provided, the ALICLOUD_REGION environment variable will be used.

See also the Alicloud documentation on ApsaraDB RDS.

Examples

Test the engine used with an ApsaraDB RDS instance.

describe alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance(db_instance_id: 'alicloudrds123') do
  its ('engine')         { should eq 'mysql' }
  its ('engine_version') { should eq '5.6.37' }
end

Test the storage allocated to an RDS instance.

describe alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance(db_instance_id: 'alicloudrds123') do
  its ('storage_type')      { should eq 'gp2' }
  its ('allocated_storage') { should eq 10 }
end

Test the network accessibility of the RDS instance.

describe alicloud_asparadb_rds_instance(db_instance_id: 'alicloudrds123') do
  its ('in_default_vpc') { should be false }
  its ('net_type') { should eq 'Intranet' }
  its ('security_ips') { should_not eq '' }
  its ('security_ips') { should_not include '0.0.0.0/0' }
end

Matchers

For a full list of available matchers, see our Universal Matchers page.

exist

The control will pass if the describe returns at least one result.

Use should_not to test the entity should not exist.

describe alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance(db_instance_id: 'AnExistingRDS') do
  it { should exist }
end
describe alicloud_apsaradb_rds_instance(db_instance_id: 'ANonExistentRDS') do
  it { should_not exist }
end

Alicloud Permissions

Your Principal will need the rds:DescribeDBInstanceAttribute and vpc:DescribeVpcs actions with Effect set to Allow.

You can find documentation at Use RAM to manage ApsaraDB for RDS permissions.
