Terraform Chronicle

Terraform provider for Chronicle

Documentation

Find available docs here.

Building The Provider

make build

Debugging

TF examples can be found under examples/ directory, and can be used for debugging purposes.

• run ./debug.sh script in this repo root and init target workspace (terraform init)
• attach with your debugger to port 2345, this will also print required gRPC debug info to stdout
• note the env variable from the above output (you'll need it in the next step)
• set breakpoints in code and run a plan (TF_REATTACH_PROVIDERS='{...}' terraform plan)
• re-run the above command as many times as needed (provider process keeps running after the plan has finished)

Release

After merging to master, GitHub Action will push new tag, which in turn will trigger goreleaser.

goreleaser action will build and upload to GitHub release.

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.21+ is required).

To compile the provider, run make build.

make build

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

make test

In order to run the full suite of Acceptance tests, set the environment variables listed below and run make testacc.

The order of precedence for chronicle's API configuration is the following: Credential file through TF > Access Token through TF > Environment Variable. Environment variables always take the lowest precedence

Note: Acceptance tests create real resources

Using a local version of the provider

Firstly install the provider by running:

make install

Modify your .terraformrc file as the following:

provider_installation {
  filesystem_mirror {
    path = "<HOME_PATH>/.terraform.d/plugins"
    include = ["github.com/form3tech-oss/chronicle"]
  }
  direct {
    exclude = ["github.com/form3tech-oss/chronicle"]
  }
}

Now leverage the provider by using:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    chronicle = {
      source  = "github.com/form3tech-oss/chronicle"
    }
  }
}
