Quick Start

---

When using the FlexibleEngineCloud Provider with Terraform 0.13 and later, the recommended approach is to declare Provider versions in the root module Terraform configuration, using a required_providers block as per the following example. For previous versions, please continue to pin the version within the provider block.

1. Add FlexibleEngineCloud/flexibleengine to your required_providers.

   # provider.tf
   terraform {
     required_version = ">= 0.13"
   
     required_providers {
       flexibleengine = {
         source = "FlexibleEngineCloud/flexibleengine"
         version = ">= 1.20.0"
       }
     }
   }

2. Run terraform init -upgrade to download/upgrade the provider.

3. Add the provider and Authenticate.

   • AK/SK Authenticate

   # provider.tf
   
   # Configure the FlexibleEngine Provider with AK/SK
   provider "flexibleengine" {
     access_key  = "access key"
     secret_key  = "secret key"
     domain_name = "domain name"
     region      = "eu-west-0"
   }

   • Username/Password Authenticate

   # provider.tf
   
   # Configure the FlexibleEngine Provider with Username/Password 
   provider "flexibleengine" {
     user_name   = "user name"
     password    = "password"
     domain_name = "domain name"
     region      = "eu-west-0"
   }

4. Create your first resource.

   # main.tf
   
   # Create an Elastic Cloud Server resource
   resource "flexibleengine_compute_instance_v2" "test-server" {
     name        = "test-server"
     image_name  = "OBS Ubuntu 18.04"
     flavor_name = "t2.micro"
     key_pair    = "kp_ecs"
     security_groups = ["default"]
     network {
       uuid = "55534eaa-533a-419d-9b40-ec427ea7195a"
     }
   }

Developing the Provider

---

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.13+ is required). You'll also need to correctly setup a GOPATH, as well as adding $GOPATH/bin to your $PATH.

Building the Provider

1. Clone repository to $GOPATH/src/github.com/FlexibleEngineCloud/terraform-provider-flexibleengine with go get or git clone.

   $ go get github.com/FlexibleEngineCloud/terraform-provider-flexibleengine

   $ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/FlexibleEngineCloud/terraform-provider-flexibleengine
   $ git clone git@github.com:FlexibleEngineCloud/terraform-provider-flexibleengine.git

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

   $ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/FlexibleEngineCloud/terraform-provider-flexibleengine
   $ make build

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

   $ make test

Acceptance Testing

Before making a Pull Request or a release, the resources and data sources shoule be tested with acceptance tests.

The following environment variables are required before running the acceptance testing:

export OS_ACCESS_KEY=xxx
export OS_SECRET_KEY=xxx
export OS_REGION_NAME=xxx
export OS_PROJECT_NAME=xxx
export OS_IMAGE_ID=xxx
export OS_FLAVOR_ID=xxx
export OS_NETWORK_ID=xxx

Then we can run the acceptance tests with make testacc.

$ make testacc TEST='./flexibleengine' TESTARGS='-run TestAccXXXX'

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

Debugging Providers

Add the TF_LOG and TF_LOG_PATH environment variables to the system, and then you can view detailed logs. For example, in a Linux operating system, run the following commands:

$ export TF_LOG=TRACE
$ export TF_LOG_PATH="./terraform.log"
