Description

It would be nice to have aws_globalaccelerator_listener data source. It will allow to add LB's to Global Accelerator described in another module.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• aws_globalaccelerator_listener

Potential Terraform Configuration

# Looks a bit weird :( No idea if there's better option to select listener
data "aws_globalaccelerator_listener" "reader" {
  globalaccelerator_accelerator_name = "reader"
  protocol = "TCP"
  port_range_from = "443"
  port_range_to = "443"
}

resource "aws_globalaccelerator_endpoint_group" "read" {
  listener_arn = data.aws_globalaccelerator_listener.reader.id

  endpoint_configuration {
    endpoint_id = aws_lb.read.arn
    weight      = 100
 }
}

@Nitin052 , any luck?

Hey, we need this as well! I'd like to work on it.

I'll assign this to myself since nobody else did so far, but if you're already working on this please let me know.

EDIT: huh, I can't assign this to myself. If someone with permissions comes across this... :pray:

This is very much required. Especially in terramate configurations where a reliance on data sources is far greater.

Any news? 👀

Please implement this. This is super required for any global infrastructure management using AWS GA.

A workaround for the missing data source is:

data "external" "aws-ga-listener-lookup" {

  program = [
    "aws",
    "--region us-west-2",
    "globalaccelerator list-listeners",
    "--accelerator-arn ${data.aws_globalaccelerator_accelerator.my-aws-ga.arn}",
  ]
}

With this, you can access the listener arn with data.external.aws-ga-listener-lookup.result
