google_compute_global_forwarding_rule

Manages a Global Forwarding Rule within GCE. This binds an ip and port to a target HTTP(s) proxy. For more information see the official documentation and API.

Example Usage

resource "google_compute_global_forwarding_rule" "default" {
  name       = "test"
  target     = "${google_compute_target_http_proxy.default.self_link}"
  port_range = "80"
}

resource "google_compute_target_http_proxy" "default" {
  name        = "test-proxy"
  description = "a description"
  url_map     = "${google_compute_url_map.default.self_link}"
}

resource "google_compute_url_map" "default" {
  name            = "url-map"
  description     = "a description"
  default_service = "${google_compute_backend_service.default.self_link}"

  host_rule {
    hosts        = ["mysite.com"]
    path_matcher = "allpaths"
  }

  path_matcher {
    name            = "allpaths"
    default_service = "${google_compute_backend_service.default.self_link}"
    path_rule {
      paths   = ["/*"]
      service = "${google_compute_backend_service.default.self_link}"
    }
  }
}

resource "google_compute_backend_service" "default" {
  name        = "default-backend"
  port_name   = "http"
  protocol    = "HTTP"
  timeout_sec = 10

  health_checks = ["${google_compute_http_health_check.default.self_link}"]
}

resource "google_compute_http_health_check" "default" {
  name               = "test"
  request_path       = "/"
  check_interval_sec = 1
  timeout_sec        = 1
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

  • name - (Required) A unique name for the resource, required by GCE. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • target - (Required) URL of target HTTP or HTTPS proxy.


  • description - (Optional) Textual description field.

  • ip_address - (Optional) The static IP. (if not set, an ephemeral IP is used).

  • ip_protocol - (Optional) The IP protocol to route, one of "TCP" "UDP" "AH" "ESP" or "SCTP". (default "TCP").

  • port_range - (Optional) A range e.g. "1024-2048" or a single port "1024" (defaults to all ports!).

  • project - (Optional) The project in which the resource belongs. If it is not provided, the provider project is used.

Attributes Reference

In addition to the arguments listed above, the following computed attributes are exported:

  • self_link - The URI of the created resource.
