问题
The timestamp() function in the interpolation syntax will return an ISO 8601 formatted string, which looks like this 2019-02-06T23:22:28Z
. However, I want to have a string which looks like this 20190206232240706500000001
. A string with only numbers (integers) and no hyphens, white spaces, colon, Z or T. What is a simple and elegant way to achieve this?
It works if I replace every a single character class at the time hyphens, white spaces, colon Z and T:
locals {
timestamp = "${timestamp()}"
timestamp_no_hyphens = "${replace("${local.timestamp}", "-", "")}"
timestamp_no_spaces = "${replace("${local.timestamp_no_hyphens}", " ", "")}"
timestamp_no_t = "${replace("${local.timestamp_no_spaces}", "T", "")}"
timestamp_no_z = "${replace("${local.timestamp_no_t}", "Z", "")}"
timestamp_no_colons = "${replace("${local.timestamp_no_z}", ":", "")}"
timestamp_sanitized = "${local.timestamp_no_colons}"
}
output "timestamp" {
value = "${local.timestamp_sanitized}"
}
The resulting output is in the desired format, except the string is significantly shorter:
Outputs:
timestamp = 20190207000744
However, this solution is very ugly. Is there another way of doing the same thing in a more elegant way as well as producing a string with the same length as the example string 20190206232240706500000001
?
回答1:
The current interpolate function timestamp() has been hardcoded with output format RFC3339
in the source code:
https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/blob/master/config/interpolate_funcs.go#L1521
return time.Now().UTC().Format(time.RFC3339), nil
So there is nothing wrong with your way, however we can improve it a little bit.
locals {
timestamp = "${timestamp()}"
timestamp_sanitized = "${replace("${local.timestamp}", "/[- TZ:]/", "")}"
}
Reference:
https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax
replace(string, search, replace) - Does a search and replace on the given string. All instances of search are replaced with the value of replace. If search is wrapped in forward slashes, it is treated as a regular expression. If using a regular expression, replace can reference subcaptures in the regular expression by using $n where n is the index or name of the subcapture. If using a regular expression, the syntax conforms to the re2 regular expression syntax.

Terraform 0.12.0 introduced a new function formatdate which can make this more readable:
output "timestamp" {
value = formatdate("YYYYMMDDhhmmss", timestamp())
}
At the time of writing, formatdate
's smallest supported unit is whole seconds, so this won't give exactly the same result as the regexp approach, but can work if the nearest second is accurate enough for the use-case.

This answer just shows an example of @BMW's answer which wasn't obvious to someone that's new to Terraform.
$ cat main.tf
locals {
timestamp = "${timestamp()}"
timestamp_sanitized = "${replace("${local.timestamp}", "/[-| |T|Z|:]/", "")}"
}
output "timestamp" {
value = "${local.timestamp_sanitized}"
}
Example runs
Run #1:
$ terraform apply
Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.
Outputs:
timestamp = 20190221205825
Run #2:
$ terraform apply
Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.
Outputs:
timestamp = 20190221205839
