Terraform Provider for Cisco CML2

CodeQL

This template repository is built on the Terraform Plugin Framework. The template repository built on the Terraform Plugin SDK can be found at terraform-provider-scaffolding. See Which SDK Should I Use? in the Terraform documentation for additional information.

This repository implements a Terraform provider for Cisco Modeling Labs version 2.3 and later. It's current state is "work-in-progress". The current implementation provides:

  • A resource and a data source (internal/provider/),
    • resource cml2_lab to create, update and destroy a lab based on a YAML topology file
    • update allows to modify state, e.g. from STOPPED to STARTED, ...
    • data source cml2_lab_details to retrieve operational state from a running lab.
  • Examples (examples/) and generated documentation (docs/),
  • Miscellaneous meta files.

Note: The examples and docs as well as the tests are pretty much identical to the files found in the original templates... See the TODO.md file!

Requirements

Building The Provider

  1. Clone the repository
  2. Enter the repository directory
  3. Build the provider using the Go install command:
go install

Using the provider

Environment

The provider is using environment variables for configuration. Heres an example:

# for testing purposes, suggest to use direnv

# this is used by the cmlclient test command, ctest, not needed for the provider
# CML_LABID="ba35782a-06ee-4234-9de4-473ffe3c09e8"

CML_HOST="https://cml-controller.cml.lab"
CML_TOKEN=" valid-cmd-jwt "
CML_USERNAME=""
CML_PASSWORD=""
TF_VAR_token=$CML_TOKEN

export CML_HOST CML_USERNAME CML_PASSWORD TF_VAR_token

HCL

NOTE: this is mostly outdated... Need to update!!

Here's a simple example that shows how to use the provider. It will import a lab as defined in topology.yml, then start it and wait for it to converge (e.g. all nodes report that they are BOOTED). Then it will read the lab data via cml2_lab_details using the ID from the import and print out the lab details. Only nodes with an IP address are considered for output (only_with_ip = true).

Example .terraformrc:

provider_installation {

  # dev_overrides {
  #   "hashicorp/cml2" = "/home/rschmied/Projects/terraform-provider-cml2"
  # }

  # For all other providers, install them directly from their origin provider
  # registries as normal. If you omit this, Terraform will _only_ use
  # the dev_overrides block, and so no other providers will be available.
  # direct {}
  filesystem_mirror {
    path = "/tmp/terraform"
    include = [ "registry.terraform.io/ciscodevnet/*" ]
  }
}

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (see Requirements above).

To compile the provider, run go install. This will build the provider and put the provider binary in the $GOPATH/bin directory.

To generate or update documentation, run go generate.

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.
