Terraform Provider for metalstack.cloud

Manage the lifecycle of your bare-metal Kubernetes clusters on metalstack.cloud using Terraform.

Note: this project is in an early development stage. It might break in the future and getting started might be cumbersome.

Requirements

• Terraform >= 1.0
• Go >= 1.19

Building the provider

1. Clone the repository
2. Enter the repository directory
3. Build the provider using the Go install command:

go install

Using the provider

First, let's add the provider to your project:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    metal = {
      source = "metal-stack-cloud/metal"
    }
  }
}

To obtain an api token for creating resources, visit metalstack.cloud. Head to the the Access Tokens section and create a new one with the desired permissions, name and validity. Note: Watch out to first select the desired organization and project you want the token to be valid for.

Configure the provider by providing your token:

provider "metal" {
    api_token = "<YOUR_TOKEN>" # or set env METAL_STACK_CLOUD_API_TOKEN

    # project will be derived from the api_token
}

Now you are ready to go!
