* eph: add ephemeral resource Adds a new example ephemeral resource using a required configurable attribute and an example ID. * tools: bump terraform-plugin-docs Bump to the latest stable release, as it includes support for ephemeral resource documentation generation. * docs: add ephemeral resource documentation * provider: register new example ephemeral resource * eph: improve alphabetical ordering of struct fields * eph: use a computed 'value' attribute To help provider developers easily understand the concept of ephemeral resources, we use a 'value' attribute in the schema, which is set to an example token (token-123). * docs: update ephemeral resource docs * provider: create a separate echo provider factory container Since not every acceptance test requires an ephemeral provider server for the CLI to connect to and interact with, this introduces a separate provider factory container that includes the echo provider. * eph: add basic acceptance test for ephemeral resource * docs: rename ephemeral resource configuration file * eph: improve http response diag
Terraform Provider Scaffolding (Terraform Plugin Framework)
This template repository is built on the Terraform Plugin Framework. The template repository built on the Terraform Plugin SDK can be found at terraform-provider-scaffolding. See Which SDK Should I Use? in the Terraform documentation for additional information.
This repository is a template for a Terraform provider. It is intended as a starting point for creating Terraform providers, containing:
- A resource and a data source (
internal/provider/), - Examples (
examples/) and generated documentation (docs/), - Miscellaneous meta files.
These files contain boilerplate code that you will need to edit to create your own Terraform provider. Tutorials for creating Terraform providers can be found on the HashiCorp Developer platform. Terraform Plugin Framework specific guides are titled accordingly.
Please see the GitHub template repository documentation for how to create a new repository from this template on GitHub.
Once you've written your provider, you'll want to publish it on the Terraform Registry so that others can use it.
Requirements
Building The Provider
- Clone the repository
- Enter the repository directory
- Build the provider using the Go
installcommand:
go install
Adding Dependencies
This provider uses Go modules. Please see the Go documentation for the most up to date information about using Go modules.
To add a new dependency github.com/author/dependency to your Terraform provider:
go get github.com/author/dependency
go mod tidy
Then commit the changes to go.mod and go.sum.
Using the provider
Fill this in for each provider
Developing the Provider
If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (see Requirements above).
To compile the provider, run go install. This will build the provider and put the provider binary in the $GOPATH/bin directory.
To generate or update documentation, run make generate.
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.
