YugabyteDB Managed - Allow List Management

This module can help in dynamically updating allow list in case of serverless / PaaS environments where egress IPs are dynamic.

This is developed particularly to support accessing YugabyteDB Managed instance from [fly.to]. This uses YBM APIs to update the network allow list at runtime

Features

1. Create versioned allow list
2. Easy to override or configure manually, just follow the naming conventions
3. Create new version on each run
4. Skips version creations on duplicate updates
5. Dis-associated old version from cluster.
6. Keeps existing association from older version

Example

// Make sure YBM_API_KEY. YBM_PROJECT_ID and YBM_ACCOUNT_ID are defined in the environment
import { update } from "ybm-allow-list-management";
let prefix = "myapp-allow-list"
// Find your apps egress IP
let egressIp = await fetch("https://ifconfig.me/ip",)
  .then(res => {
    return res.text();
  })
  .then(ipAddress => `${ipAddress}/32`);
// Get it from the YBM console address bar
let clusterId = '<cluster-uuid>'

console.log("Egress IP: " + egressIp);

let allowList = await update(prefix, egressIp, clusterId);
console.log("Allow list name " + allowList.spec.name);

Code above will go create an allow list with prefix myapp-allow-list. If there is any existing list matching myapp-allow-list--v# format, it will create new list by addin +1 to version. It will copy over existing ip addresses and cluster ids from older version.
