DNSimple Terraform Provider

Requirements

• Terraform 1.0.3 or greater
  • Old versions may be supported, but Terraform does not support automatically fetching protocol v6 providers from the registry prior to Terraform 1.0.3 as mentioned here.
• Go 1.18+ (to build the provider plugin)

Building The Provider

Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/dnsimple/terraform-provider-dnsimple

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/dnsimple; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/dnsimple
$ git clone https://github.com/dnsimple/terraform-provider-dnsimple.git

Enter the provider directory and build the provider

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/dnsimple/terraform-provider-dnsimple
$ make build

Using the provider

See the DNSimple Provider documentation to get started using the DNSimple provider.

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.18+ is required). 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 and put the provider binary in the $GOPATH/bin directory.

$ make build
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-dnsimple
...

In order to test the provider, you can simply run make test.

$ make test

In order to run the full suite of Acceptance tests, run make testacc.

Note: Acceptance tests create real resources, and often cost money to run.

$ make testacc
