# Terraform Provider Scaffolding (Terraform Plugin Framework)
|
|
|
|
_This template repository is built on the [Terraform Plugin Framework](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-plugin-framework). The template repository built on the [Terraform Plugin SDK](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-plugin-sdk), can be found at [terraform-provider-scaffolding](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-scaffolding). For additional information on deciding which provider SDK to use, see [Which SDK Should I Use?](https://www.terraform.io/docs/plugin/which-sdk.html) in the Terraform documentation._
|
|
|
|
This repository is a *template* for a [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io) 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 Learn](https://learn.hashicorp.com/collections/terraform/providers) platform. _Terraform Plugin Framework specific guides are titled accordingly._
|
|
|
|
Please see the [GitHub template repository documentation](https://help.github.com/en/github/creating-cloning-and-archiving-repositories/creating-a-repository-from-a-template) 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](https://www.terraform.io/docs/registry/providers/publishing.html) so that others can use it.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/downloads.html) >= 1.0.3
|
|
- [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) >= 1.17
|
|
|
|
## Building The Provider
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the repository
|
|
1. Enter the repository directory
|
|
1. Build the provider using the Go `install` command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
go install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Adding Dependencies
|
|
|
|
This provider uses [Go modules](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/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:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
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](http://www.golang.org) installed on your machine (see [Requirements](#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 `go 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.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
make testacc
|
|
```
