Data resources #259

Closed stobias123 closed 3 years ago

stobias123 commented 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem?

I don't like to hard code values into my terraform code. I use data modules whenever possible so that my modules are portable and re-usable.

I'm unable to write clean code due to the lack of support for data sources in this provider.

Describe the solution you'd like

There should be data sources available to match all resources.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Referencing remote state of other (applied) terraform modules. This is complex, and error prone.]

I agree with this sentiment, and the provider is moving in this direction.

My last comment in #104 touches on this, and that issue is similarly worded to this issue. As such I'm closing this out as a duplicate of that one.

If there is a specific resource you want to get the panos_address_object treatment (which means it would get a data source), feel free to open a new GitHub issue for it.
