Terraform Provider Akash

Pre-requisites

For the provider to work properly you'll need:

Terraform
Go 1.18
Akash v0.16.3

Installation

You can visit the registry and follow the installations steps.

Move the binary file of the provider (check releases) to the following folder:

mkdir -p ~/.terraform.d/plugins/joaoluna.com/cloud/akash/<version>/<OS arch e.g. darwin_arm64>
mv <binary> ~/.terraform.d/plugins/joaoluna.com/cloud/akash/<version>/<OS arch e.g. darwin_arm64>

Usage

Environment Variables

Make sure you have the following environment variables in your machine in order for the provider to work correctly.

Variable	Description
`AKASH_KEY_NAME`	Name of your keychain.
`AKASH_KEYRING_BACKEND`	Backend of the keyring.
`AKASH_ACCOUNT_ADDRESS`	Address of your account.
`AKASH_NET`	Network to use, usually the mainnet.
`AKASH_VERSION`	Version of the network.
`AKASH_CHAIN_ID`	Chain id of the network.
`AKASH_NODE`	Akash node to connect to.
`AKASH_HOME`	Absolute path to the Akash's home folder, usually under ~/.akash
`AKASH_PATH`	(Optional) The path to the Akash binary

In alternative, you can pass these as the configuration of the provider

Import current state

To import your existing deployments to your tfstate you have to build the id of your deployment which consists of the dseq, your address and the provider's address separated by ":".

terraform import akash_deployment.<resource_name> <dseq>:<your address>:<providers address>

How to install

To install the Terraform provider through the source code execute the two following commands from your shell:

go build -o terraform-provider-akash
make install

Example configurations

You can find example configurations for creating a deployment inside the examples/ folder.

Development environment setup

export AKASH_KEY_NAME=terraform
export AKASH_KEYRING_BACKEND=os
export AKASH_ACCOUNT_ADDRESS="$(./bin/akash keys show $AKASH_KEY_NAME -a)"
export AKASH_NET="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ovrclk/net/master/mainnet"
export AKASH_VERSION="$(curl -s "$AKASH_NET/version.txt")"
export AKASH_CHAIN_ID="$(curl -s "$AKASH_NET/chain-id.txt")"
export AKASH_NODE="https://akash-rpc.polkachu.com:443"
export AKASH_HOME="$(realpath ~/.akash)"

export TF_LOG_PROVIDER=DEBUG

Clean terraform

make clean

Build the provider

Run the following command to build the provider

# Run the following command to build the provider
go build -o terraform-provider-akash

# Build and install the provider
make install

cd examples && terraform init && terraform apply --auto-approve

Akash Testing

Close the Deployment

provider-services tx deployment close --dseq 8595343 --owner $AKASH_ACCOUNT_ADDRESS --from $AKASH_KEY_NAME -y --gas=auto --gas-adjustment=1.15 --gas-prices=0.025uakt

Get deployment details

provider-services provider lease-status --home ~/.akash --dseq 7339802 --provider akash1e5g55l6dqwdjewq4zenl6u93t2mmy2603pungd

Get logs

provider-services provider lease-logs --dseq 7339802 --provider akash1e5g55l6dqwdjewq4zenl6u93t2mmy2603pungd --from "$AKASH_KEY_NAME"

Shell Access

provider-services lease-shell --dseq 8929479 --provider akash1mn3fx53ngzptq7l4h4f0mqa0yj6fd8pd0s2xgm --from "$AKASH_KEY_NAME" --tty --replica-index=0

Troubleshooting

`Error: error unmarshalling: invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value`

If you encounter this error close the deployment and try again. If in development mode, try to increase the fees on deployment creation.
