Cisco DCNM Provider

Requirements

• Terraform v0.12 or later.

• Go Latest Version

Building The Provider

Clone this repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/ciscoecosystem/terraform-provider-dcnm. Clone dcnm-go-client to $GOPATH/src/github.com/ciscoecosystem/dcnm-go-client.

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/ciscoecosystem; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ciscoecosystem
$ git clone https://github.com/ciscoecosystem/terraform-provider-dcnm.git
$ git clone https://github.com/ciscoecosystem/dcnm-go-client.git

Using The Provider

If you are 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.

ex.

#configure provider with your Cisco DCNM/NDFC credentials.
terraform {
  required_providers {
    dcnm = {
      source = "CiscoDevNet/dcnm"
    }
  }
}

provider "dcnm" {
  # Cisco DCNM/NDFC user name
  username = "admin"
  # Cisco DCNM/NDFC password
  password = "password"
  # Cisco DCNM/NDFC url
  url      = "https://my-cisco-dcnm.com"
  insecure = true
  proxy_url = "https://proxy_server:proxy_port"
  platform = "dcnm"
}

resource "dcnm_inventory" "first" {
  fabric_name   = "fab1"
  username      = "Username for NXOS switch"
  password      = "Password for NXOS switch"
  ip            = "IP of NXOS switch"
}

Developing The Provider

If you want to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine. 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 with sanity checks present in scripts directory and put the provider binary in $GOPATH/bin directory.
