Customizing Modules

After you have cloned the the official RAD Lab repository, you can customize every module's defaults to match your organization's needs.

Overriding default variables of a RAD Lab Module

To set any module specific variables, use --varfile argument while running RAD Lab Launcher (radlab.py) and pass a file with variables content. Variables like organization_id, folder_id, billing_account_id, random_id (a.k.a. deployment id), which are requested as part of guided setup, can be set via --varfile argument by passing them in a file.

Based on the module which you are deploying, review the variables.tf file to determine the type of variable, and accordingly, set the variable values in the file to override the default variables.

Usage :

python3 radlab.py --varfile /<path_to_file>/<file_with_terraform.tfvars_contents>

NOTE: When the above argument is not passed then the modules are deployed with module's default variable values in the variables.tf file.
