Terraform ToDoList Provider

This is not a real project, but an exercise in order to learn how to build Terraform Providers

The goal is to create a ToDo list that is stored on disk using files and folders.

resource "todo_storage" "todos_storage" {
   path= "~/todos-store"
}

resource "todo_list" "project_one" {
   name = "TestProject"
   path= todo_storage.local.path
   category = "Home"
}

resource "todo_list_item" "walk_todo" {
   description = "Go for a walk"
   list_name = todo_list.name
}

Running the Project:

• Ensure you have Terraform and GoLang installed.
• Invoke build.sh
• Navigate to the infra folder.
• terraform apply -auto-approve
• Verify that a file called TestProject.txt was created in base_path/category.
• terraform delete -auto-approve
• Verify that file was deleted.

Project Status:

• todo_list resource is now supported. A file with the project name is created under the base_path / category.

ToDo:

• Implement todo_list_item.
• Add Unit Tests.
• Refactor base folder into it's own resource so it can be managed via terraform as well.
• Add support Updates..
• Create step by step walkthrough.
