I'm trying to figure out the best way to automate the deployment of infrastructure resources defined in Terraform. Ideally, I'd like to deploy all my code — including resource definitions — in a CI/CD manner.

So, if I define an AWS CodePipeline that reads my Terraform code from GitHub, can I have that CodePipeline...deploy itself (+ any other AWS resources defined in the repo)?

Update:

I built this and tried to push a change through the pipeline that updated the CodeBuild image. It seems like the CodeBuild step to run Terraform succeeded in updating the pipeline, but then the "Build" stage that did this ended up in a "Cancelled" state with the message: Pipeline definition was updated.

So it seems like it sort of worked, but I may have to kick off a manual release of the most recent change after that. Any downsides/risks?
