provider registry registry.terraform.io does not have a provider named │ registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/metal

I may be doing something wrong here, but:

Partner and community providers are signed by their developers.

data "metal_project" "project" {
  name = "Derek"
  project_id = "redacted"

}

resource "metal_project_ssh_key" "access" {
  name       = "access"
  public_key = "ssh-rsa redacted"
  project_id = local.project_id
}

module "faasd" {
  source = "github.com/jsiebens/terraform-equinix-faasd"

  name       = "derek.openfaas.com"
  project_id = data.metal_project.project.id

  plan = "c3.small.x86"
  metro = "am"
  ufw_enabled = true
  project_ssh_key_ids = [metal_project_ssh_key.access.id]
}

There is no complete example in the repository, so I copied the example given. See also #2

This happens with the following terraform versions: v1.0.0 and v1.0.8 (latest)

Because you are creating Equinix Metal resources in the root module too (metal_project_ssh_key), the provider needs to be configured there as well.

An example is now available to illustrate this. See commit 1f7567a5c5931e9d78a3e21b25fa866522e0bd3f
