Verification

Live-tested

Really deployed to a cloud sandbox, verified against its outputs and assertions, then destroyed - with the teardown confirmed.

Conformance

  • Static validation (fmt · validate · tflint)
  • Security scan clean (Checkov)
  • Plan test superseded by live test

Provenance

Functional

  • Live-tested - applied, verified, destroyed

Documentation

aws-ecr

ECR repository with lifecycle rules, scan-on-push, immutable tags, and cross-account/replication policies — the lifecycle-policy JSON and least-privilege repository policy are generated for you from typed inputs. Works with Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), AWS provider >= 6.0, < 7.0.

Secure defaults:

  • Immutable tags — pushed tags can never be silently overwritten
  • Scan on push enabled
  • Images always encrypted at rest (AES256, or your CMK via kms_key_arn)
  • force_delete = false — Terraform refuses to destroy a repository that still holds images
  • Untagged images (superseded layers, failed pushes) expire after 14 days

Lifecycle presets compose into one correctly-prioritized policy:

  1. tagged_image_retention — keep-last-N rules per tag-prefix set
  2. untagged_expiry_days — age out untagged images
  3. max_image_count — hard cap on total images (ECR requires this tagStatus=any rule to carry the highest priority — handled for you)

Cross-account access is least-privilege: pull_principal_arns get exactly the three pull actions, push_principal_arns add the four push actions, and allow_lambda_pull grants the Lambda service principal scoped to functions in your own account. Pass repository_policy / lifecycle_policy JSON to take full manual control.

Requirements

  • Terraform or OpenTofu >= 1.6
  • hashicorp/aws >= 6.0, < 7.0
