Terraform Provider

Website: https://www.terraform.io
Mailing list: Google Groups

Requirements

Terraform 0.10.x
Go 1.16 (to build the provider plugin)

Usage

Near identical to the external provider except the command is run once on create, and never again.

# For example, restrict template version in 0.1.x
resource "commandpersistence_cmd" "example" {
  program = ["python3", "${path.root}/example.py"]

  query = {
    # arbitrary map of string -> string, passed
    # to the external program as the data query.
    id = "abc123"
  }
}

Building The Provider

Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/terrycain/terraform-provider-commandpersistence

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/terrycain; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/terrycain
$ git clone git@github.com:terrycain/terraform-provider-commandpersistence

Enter the provider directory and build the provider

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/terrycain/terraform-provider-commandpersistence
$ make build

Using the provider

Fill in for each provider

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.11+ is required). You'll also need to correctly setup a GOPATH, as well as adding $GOPATH/bin to your $PATH.

To compile the provider, run make build. This will build the provider and put the provider binary in the $GOPATH/bin directory.

$ make build
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-commandpersistence
...

In order to test the provider, you can simply run make test.

$ make test

In order to run the full suite of Acceptance tests, run make testacc.

Note: Acceptance tests create real resources, and often cost money to run.

$ make testacc

Making a release

Create a tag like v1.0.0 and the GitHub Actions CI will do the rest.
