Terraform Provider NixOS

NixOps has too many responsibilities and not a big enough community. The goal is to reduce NixOps' realm of control by moving all provisioning steps in to Terraform. This combines NixOp's deep support for NixOS with Terraform's nearly universal support for hardware and software providers.

Maintainers

This provider plugin is an experiment.

Requirements

• Terraform 0.10.x
• Go 1.8 (to build the provider plugin)

Building The Provider

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

dir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/tweag; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tweag
t clone git@github.com:tweag/terraform-provider-nixos

Enter the provider directory and build the provider

 $GOPATH/src/github.com/tweag/terraform-provider-nixos
ke build

Using the provider

ider "nixos" {
ot = "./nixos-machines/"


urce "nixos_node" "my-server" {
de_name = "my-server-name"
 = "10.5.3.1"
x = <<NIX
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
  file
];
X

This will create a file at ./nixos-machines/my-server.nix containing:

rraform.ip = "10.5.3.1";
rraform.name = "my-server-name";
vironment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
file

In your Nix configuration, add a file called terraform.nix containing:

nfig, lib, pkgs, ... }:

herit (lib) mkIf mkOption types;
g = config.terraform;

tions = {
terraform = {
  name = mkOption {
    type = types.string;
  };

  ip = mkOption {
    type = types.string;
  };
};

and add it to the configuration.nix via:

ports = [ ./terraform.nix ];

If you're using the provider with NixOps, you may want to add this to your configuration.nix:

ployment.targetHost = terraform.ip;

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.8+ 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.

ke bin

OPATH/bin/terraform-provider-tweag

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

ke 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.
