This repository is a custom Terraform provider for Render. This repository was prepared as part of the Implementing a Provider Using the Terraform Plugin Framework tutorial. The code is compiled according to the principle of human readability. You can use this repository to see in detail how the Terraform provider works.
This repository is built on the Terraform Plugin Framework.
- A resource and a data source (
internal/provider/
), - Examples (
examples/
) and generated documentation (docs/
), - Miscellaneous meta files.
- Clone the repository
- Enter the repository directory
- Build the provider using the Go
install
command:
go install
This provider uses Go modules. Please see the Go documentation for the most up to date information about using Go modules.
To add a new dependency github.com/author/dependency
to your Terraform provider:
go get github.com/author/dependency
go mod tidy
Then commit the changes to go.mod
and go.sum
.
If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (see Requirements above).
To compile the provider, run go install
. This will build the provider and put the provider binary in the $GOPATH/bin
directory.
To generate or update documentation, run go generate
.
- Create a Render REST API server to run tests locally using a Docker container.
