|
## Objectives
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Learn how to use and run Terraform basic commands
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Create a directory called "my_first_run"
|
||
|
|
2. Inside the directory create a file called "main.tf" with the following content
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```terraform
|
||
|
|
resource "local_file" "mario_local_file" {
|
||
|
|
content = "It's a me, Mario!"
|
||
|
|
filename = "/tmp/who_is_it.txt"
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
3. Run `terraform init`. What did it do?
|
||
|
|
4. Run `terraform plan`. What Terraform is going to perform?
|
||
|
|
5. Finally, run 'terraform apply' and verify the file was created
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Solution
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
# Create a directory
|
||
|
|
mkdir my_first_run && cd my_first_run
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Create the file 'main.tf'
|
||
|
|
cat << EOT >> main.tf
|
||
|
|
resource "local_file" "mario_local_file" {
|
||
|
|
content = "It's a me, Mario!"
|
||
|
|
filename = "/tmp/who_is_it.txt"
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
EOT
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Run 'terraform init'
|
||
|
|
terraform init
|
||
|
|
# Running 'ls -la' you'll it created '.terraform' and '.terraform.lock.hcl'
|
||
|
|
# In addition, it initialized (downloaded and installed) the relevant provider plugins. In this case, the "hashicorp/local"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Run 'terraform plan'
|
||
|
|
terraform plan
|
||
|
|
# It shows what Terraform is going to perform once you'll run 'terraform apply'
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<< terraform_plan_output
|
||
|
|
Terraform will perform the following actions:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# local_file.mario_local_file will be created
|
||
|
|
+ resource "local_file" "mario_local_file" {
|
||
|
|
+ content = "It's a me, Mario!"
|
||
|
|
+ directory_permission = "0777"
|
||
|
|
+ file_permission = "0777"
|
||
|
|
+ filename = "/tmp/who_is_it.txt"
|
||
|
|
+ id = (known after apply)
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.
|

terraform_plan_output
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Apply main.tf (it's better to run without -auto-approve if you are new to Terraform)
|
||
|
|
terraform apply -auto-approve
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ls /tmp/who_is_it.txt
|
||
|
|
# /tmp/who_is_it.txt
|
||
|
|
```
