Requirements

• Terraform 0.10+
• Go 1.12 (to build the provider plugin)

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (please check the requirements before proceeding).

Note: This project uses Go Modules making it safe to work with it outside of your existing GOPATH. The instructions that follow assume a directory in your home directory outside of the standard GOPATH (i.e $HOME/development/terraform-providers/).

Clone repository to: $HOME/development/terraform-providers/

$ mkdir -p $HOME/development/terraform-providers/; cd $HOME/development/terraform-providers/
$ git clone [email protected]:terraform-providers/terraform-provider-genymotion
...

Enter the provider directory and run make tools. This will install the needed tools for the provider.

$ make tools

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-genymotion
...

Using the Provider

To use a released provider in your Terraform environment, run terraform init and Terraform will automatically install the provider. To specify a particular provider version when installing released providers, see the Terraform documentation on provider versioning.

To instead use a custom-built provider in your Terraform environment (e.g. the provider binary from the build instructions above), follow the instructions to install it as a plugin. After placing it into your plugins directory, run terraform init to initialize it.

For either installation method, documentation about the provider specific configuration options can be found on the provider's website.

Testing the Provider

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. Please read Running an Acceptance Test in the contribution guidelines for more information on usage.

$ make testacc
