terraform-provisioner-safe-remote-exec

terraform-provisioner-safe-remote-exec is enhanced version of remote-exec provisioner from the terraform. It introduces an environment to provide controlled execution of commands on the remote hosts. This is achieved by introducing a new parameter timeout in the schema. The configured timeout will be in the seconds. The remote command execution will be stopped/killed by sending SIGKILL to remote command if the command excution time exceeds the timout limit configured

Example

resource "null_resource" "safe-remote-exec-test" {
  connection {
    type        = "ssh"
    user        = var.user
    host        = var.ip
    password    = var.pw
  }

  provisioner "safe-remote-exec" {
    inline = ["ping localhost -c 10", "sleep 3", "ping localhost -c 15", "touch test.txt"]
    timeout = 45
  }
}
