The AzureRM Provider supports Terraform 0.10.x and later - but Terraform 0.12.x is recommended.

# Configure the Microsoft Azure Provider
provider "azurerm" {
# We recommend pinning to the specific version of the Azure Provider you're using
# since new versions are released frequently
version = "=1.34.0"
# More information on the authentication methods supported by
# the AzureRM Provider can be found here:
# http://terraform.io/docs/providers/azurerm/index.html
# subscription_id = "..."
# client_id = "..."
# client_secret = "..."
# tenant_id = "..."
}
# Create a resource group
resource "azurerm_resource_group" "example" {
name = "production-resources"
location = "West US"
}
# Create a virtual network in the production-resources resource group
resource "azurerm_virtual_network" "test" {
name = "production-network"
resource_group_name = "${azurerm_resource_group.example.name}"
location = "${azurerm_resource_group.example.location}"
address_space = ["10.0.0.0/16"]
}
Further usage documentation is available on the Terraform website.
If you're on Windows you'll also need:
For GNU32 Make, make sure its bin path is added to PATH environment variable.*
For Git Bash for Windows, at the step of "Adjusting your PATH environment", please choose "Use Git and optional Unix tools from Windows Command Prompt".*
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
.
First clone the repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-azurerm
$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers
$ git clone git@github.com:terraform-providers/terraform-provider-azurerm
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-azurerm
Once inside the provider directory, you can run make tools
to install the dependent tooling required to compile the provider.
At this point you can compile the provider by running make build
, which will build the provider and put the provider binary in the $GOPATH/bin
directory.
$ make build
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-azurerm
...
You can also cross-compile if necessary:
GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 make build
In order to run the Unit Tests for the provider, you can run:
$ make test
The majority of tests in the provider are Acceptance Tests - which provisions real resources in Azure. It's possible to run the entire acceptance test suite by running make testacc
- however it's likely you'll want to run a subset, which you can do using a prefix, by running:
make testacc TESTARGS='-run=TestAccAzureRMResourceGroup'
The following Environment Variables must be set in your shell prior to running acceptance tests:
ARM_CLIENT_ID
ARM_CLIENT_SECRET
ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID
ARM_TENANT_ID
ARM_ENVIRONMENT
ARM_TEST_LOCATION
ARM_TEST_LOCATION_ALT
ARM_TEST_LOCATION_ALT2
Note: Acceptance tests create real resources in Azure which often cost money to run.
