Building the Provider

Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/danitso/terraform-provider-proxmox

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

Enter the provider directory, initialize and build the provider

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/danitso/terraform-provider-proxmox
$ make init
$ make build

Using the Provider

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.

Configuration

Arguments

• virtual_environment - (Optional) This is the configuration block for the Proxmox Virtual Environment
  • endpoint - (Required) The endpoint for the Proxmox Virtual Environment API
  • insecure - (Optional) Whether to skip the TLS verification step (defaults to false)
  • password - (Required) The password for the Proxmox Virtual Environment API
  • username - (Required) The username for the Proxmox Virtual Environment API

Environment variables

You can set up the provider by passing environment variables instead of specifying arguments.

• PROXMOX_VE_ENDPOINT or PM_VE_ENDPOINT - The endpoint for the Proxmox Virtual Environment API
• PROXMOX_VE_INSECURE or PM_VE_INSECURE - Whether to skip the TLS verification step
• PROXMOX_VE_PASSWORD or PM_VE_PASSWORD - The password for the Proxmox Virtual Environment API
• PROXMOX_VE_USERNAME or PM_VE_USERNAME - The username for the Proxmox Virtual Environment API

provider "proxmox" {
  virtual_environment {}
}

Usage

$ export PROXMOX_VE_ENDPOINT="https://hostname:8006"
$ export PROXMOX_VE_INSECURE="true"
$ export PROXMOX_VE_PASSWORD="a-strong-password"
$ export PROXMOX_VE_USERNAME="username@realm"
$ terraform plan

You can omit PROXMOX_VE_INSECURE, if the Proxmox Virtual Environment API is exposing a certificate trusted by your operating system.

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.

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-proxmox
...

If you wish to contribute to the provider, the following requirements must be met,

• All tests must pass using make test
• The Go code must be formatted using Gofmt
• Dependencies are installed by make init

Testing the Provider

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

$ make test

Tests are limited to regression tests, ensuring backwards compability.
