For terraform 0.13 or above users, manual installation is not required anymore. Provider will be downloaded by terraform init from terraform rke registry.
For upgrade terraform to 0.13, please follow upgrade_to_0.13 guide
Note: If you are using terraform 0.12 or lower, the provider should be installed manually. Downloadable packages are available at rke provider releases
How to install manually:
- Get binary for your platform:
curl -L https://github.com/rancher/terraform-provider-rke/releases/download/vX.Y.Z/terraform-provider-rke_X.Y.Z_<OS>_<ARCH>.zip | unzip - - Grant execution permission:
chmod 755 terraform-provider-rke_vX.Y.Z - Place provider binary on your terraform plugin directory:
mv terraform-provider-rke_vX.Y.Z <TERRAFORM_PLUGIN_DIRECTORY>terraform initwill search the following terraform plugin directories (More info at terra-farm.github.io):
| Directory | Purpose |
|---|---|
| . | In case the provider is only used in a single Terraform project. |
| Location of the terraform binary (/usr/local/bin, for example.) | For airgapped installations; see terraform bundle. |
| terraform.d/plugins/_ | For checking custom providers into a configuration’s VCS repository. Not usually desirable, but sometimes necessary in Terraform Enterprise. |
| .terraform/plugins/_ | Automatically downloaded providers. |
| ~/.terraform.d/plugins | The user plugins directory. |
| ~/.terraform.d/plugins/_ | The user plugins directory, with explicit OS and architecture. |
| /my/custom/path | Custom plugin directory. Use the -plug-dir=/my/custom/path when running terraform init |
Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-rke
$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/rancher
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/rancher
$ go get github.com/rancher/terraform-provider-rke
$ go install github.com/rancher/terraform-provider-rkeEnter the provider directory and build the provider
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/rancher/terraform-provider-rke
$ make buildCurrent master is focusing on RKE v1.0.x There are some breaking changes from previous provider version.
If you use RKE v0.2.x or v0.1.x, please set proper branch.
If you're building the provider, follow the instructions to install it as a plugin. After placing it into your plugins directory, run terraform init to initialize it. Documentation about the provider specific configuration options can be found at rke provider docs.
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.
To compile the provider, run make build. This will build the provider and put the provider binary in $GOPATH/bin .
$ make build
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-rke
...To just compile provider binary on repo path and test on terraform:
$ make bin
$ terraform init
$ terraform plan
$ terraform applyIn order to test structures on the provider, you can simply run make test.
$ make testIn order to run the full suite of Acceptance tests, you can simply run make testacc. scripts/gotestacc.sh will be run, deploying all needed requirements, running acceptance tests and cleanup.
$ make testaccDue to network limitations on docker for Mac OSX and windows, on these platforms acceptance tests should run on a dockerized enviroment.
$ make dapper-testaccYou can view some tf file examples, here.
On Openstack you can use terraform-openstack-rke module.
