Description

I would like to be able to immediately trigger a container app job after it's creation. Currently there is no way to achieve this with Terraform.

At the moment the only fudge is to create a scheduled job and schedule for a few minutes ahead of time.

New or Affected Resource(s)/Data Source(s)

azurerm_container_app_job_schedule_run_now

Potential Terraform Configuration

Taking the same pattern as azurerm_container_registry_task_schedule_run_now, create a new resource called azurerm_container_app_job_schedule_run_now.

resource "azurerm_resource_group" "example" {
  name     = "example-resources"
  location = "West Europe"
}

resource "azurerm_log_analytics_workspace" "example" {
  name                = "example-log-analytics-workspace"
  location            = azurerm_resource_group.example.location
  resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.example.name
  sku                 = "PerGB2018"
  retention_in_days   = 30
}

resource "azurerm_container_app_environment" "example" {
  name                       = "example-container-app-environment"
  location                   = azurerm_resource_group.example.location
  resource_group_name        = azurerm_resource_group.example.name
  log_analytics_workspace_id = azurerm_log_analytics_workspace.example.id
}

resource "azurerm_container_app_job" "example" {
  name                         = "example-container-app-job"
  location                     = azurerm_resource_group.example.location
  resource_group_name          = azurerm_resource_group.example.name
  container_app_environment_id = azurerm_container_app_environment.example.id

  replica_timeout_in_seconds = 10
  replica_retry_limit        = 10
  manual_trigger_config {
    parallelism              = 4
    replica_completion_count = 1
  }

  template {
    container {
      image = "repo/testcontainerAppsJob0:v1"
      name  = "testcontainerappsjob0"
      cpu    = 0.5
      memory = "1Gi"
    }
  }
}

resource "azurerm_container_app_job_schedule_run_now" "example" {
  container_app_job_id = azurerm_container_app_job.example.id
}
