1. Automating backups to Spaces with lifecycle policies and enhancing delivery via Cloudflare

    TypeScript

    To automate backups to DigitalOcean Spaces with lifecycle policies and enhance content delivery using Cloudflare, we'll need to perform several steps:

    1. Create a DigitalOcean Space: This will be used to store our backups. Spaces are object storage that comes with built-in CDN.
    2. Set Lifecycle Policies: Lifecycle policies will help automatically manage the stored objects – for example, deleting objects that are older than a certain number of days.
    3. Configure Cloudflare: We will set up Cloudflare to point to our DigitalOcean Space. However, please note that Spaces already comes with CDN functionality, but using Cloudflare can provide additional features such as Web Application Firewall (WAF), DDoS protection, and custom rules.

    Unfortunately, as of my last update, Pulumi does not natively support DigitalOcean Spaces management, including setting lifecycle policies, through the Pulumi DigitalOcean provider. Therefore, you'll need to manage lifecycle policies using DigitalOcean's API or control panel.

    For the Cloudflare part, we'll use the Pulumi Cloudflare provider to configure a domain to use Cloudflare's features. Let's first write the Pulumi program for the Cloudflare configuration.

    import * as cloudflare from "@pulumi/cloudflare"; const zoneId = "your-zone-id"; // Replace with your actual Zone ID from Cloudflare // Create a CNAME record pointing to your DigitalOcean Space const cnameRecord = new cloudflare.Record("backupCnameRecord", { zoneId: zoneId, type: "CNAME", name: "backups", // Subdomain for accessing the backups value: "your-space-name.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com", // Replace with your Space endpoint proxied: true, }); // Further configurations and rules can be added as required // ...

    In this program:

    • We import the cloudflare module from Pulumi's Cloudflare package.
    • We define a Zone ID, which corresponds to a specific domain you wish to manage with Cloudflare.
    • We create a DNS record (CNAME) that will point to your DigitalOcean Space endpoint. The proxied property set to true enables Cloudflare's proxy, which provides the added benefits such as CDN distribution and security features.
    • You can add additional configurations and rules as per your preference. Cloudflare provides a wide range of features such as page rules, workers (for custom code execution on the edge), and more.

    Additionally, you would use the Pulumi Cloudflare provider for more advanced configurations like tweaking security settings or setting up page rules. For specific examples, please consult the Cloudflare provider documentation.

    Remember to replace placeholders like 'your-zone-id', 'your-space-name', and 'nyc3' (which is a region code for DigitalOcean Spaces) with your actual information.

    After you set up Cloudflare, you'll manage the lifecycle policies directly through DigitalOcean. This isn't something Pulumi can automate at the moment. Pulumi focuses on automating infrastructure as code, but because the DigitalOcean provider doesn't currently support Spaces configurations, this step stays outside of the Pulumi ecosystem.

    To manage lifecycle policies, you would typically:

    • Use the DigitalOcean control panel, navigating to the "Spaces" section, selecting your space, and defining lifecycle rules under the "Settings".
    • Alternatively, use DigitalOcean's API to programmatically set the lifecycle rules.

    For the Pulumi part, once you write your configurations like the above, you'll need to install the Cloudflare Pulumi package using npm or yarn:

    npm install @pulumi/cloudflare

    Or, if you're using yarn:

    yarn add @pulumi/cloudflare

    After writing the code and installing the package, you would use the standard Pulumi CLI commands to deploy your infrastructure.

    • pulumi up to preview and deploy the changes
    • pulumi stack to manage stack configurations
    • pulumi destroy to tear down resources managed by Pulumi
