Terraform Provider

Website: https://www.terraform.io
Mailing list: Google Groups

Requirements

Terraform 0.12.x
Go 1.12 (to build the provider plugin)

Usage

For Terraform 0.12+ compatibility, the configuration should specify version 1.6 or higher:

provider "mysql" {
  version = "~> 1.6"
}

Building The Provider

Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-mysql

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers
$ git clone git@github.com:terraform-providers/terraform-provider-mysql

Enter the provider directory and build the provider

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-mysql
$ make build

Using the provider

Fill in for each provider

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.12+ 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 bin
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-mysql
...

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

If you want to run the Acceptance tests on your own machine with a MySQL in Docker:

$ docker run --rm --name some-mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw -d -p 3306:3306 mysql:5.7
$ # wait for a few seconds to let MySQL stand up, check the logs with: docker logs -f some-mysql
$ export MYSQL_USERNAME=root
$ export MYSQL_ENDPOINT=localhost:3306
$ export MYSQL_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw
$ mysql -h localhost -u root -p -e "INSTALL PLUGIN mysql_no_login SONAME 'mysql_no_login.so';"
$ make testacc
$ docker rm -f some-mysql
