Using the Provider

See the gridscale provider documentation to get started on using the gridscale provider.

Alternatively, this documentation can also be found within this repository. Check out website/docs/index.html.markdown to get started. Documentation on how to create resources like servers, storages and networks can be found in website/docs/r. Documentation on how to add resources like storages, networks and IP addresses to servers, check out the documentation on datasources found in website/docs/d.

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.8+ 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-gridscale
…

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

In order to run a specific Acceptance test.

$ make testacc TEST=./gridscale/ TESTARGS='-run=TestAccResourceGridscaleLoadBalancerBasic'

Known Issues

The following issues are known to us:

• Changing the name attribute in a template datasource will not trigger storages using this template to be recreated.
• If a storage has snapshots, terraform can not delete it.
• The autorecovery value of a server can't be changed with Terraform.
