terraform-provider-ecloud

terraform-provider-ecloud

Getting Started

To get started, the terraform-provider-ecloud binary (.exe extension if Windows) should be downloaded from Releases and placed in a directory. For this example, we'll place it at /tmp/terraform-provider-ecloud.

Next, we'll go ahead and create a new directory to hold our terraform file and state:

mkdir /home/user/terraform

We'll then create an example terraform file /home/user/terraform/test.tf:

cat <<EOF > /home/user/terraform/test.tf
provider "ecloud" {
  api_key = "abc"
}

resource "ecloud_virtualmachine" "vm-1" {
    cpu = 2
    ram = 2
    os_disk = 20
    template = "CentOS 7 64-bit"
    name = "vm-1"
    environment = "Hybrid"
    solution_id = 123
}
EOF

We'll then need to initialise terraform with our provider (specifying plugin-dir as the path to where the provider was downloaded to earlier):

terraform init -get-plugins=false -plugin-dir=/tmp/terraform-provider-ecloud

Finally, we can invoke terraform apply to apply our terraform configuration:

terraform apply
