The provider needs to be configured 13 with the proper credentials before it can be used. 14 15 Use the navigation to the left to read about the available resources. 16 17 ## Example Usage 18 19 ``` 20 # Configure the OpenStack Provider 21 provider "openstack" { 22 user_name = "admin" 23 tenant_name = "admin" 24 password = "pwd" 25 auth_url = "http://myauthurl:5000/v2.0" 26 } 27 28 # Create a web server 29 resource "openstack_compute_instance_v2" "test-server" { 30 ... 31 } 32 ``` 33 34 ## Configuration Reference 35 36 The following arguments are supported: 37 38 * `auth_url` - (Required) If omitted, the `OS_AUTH_URL` environment 39 variable is used. 40 41 * `user_name` - (Optional; Required for Identity V2) If omitted, the 42 `OS_USERNAME` environment variable is used. 43 44 * `user_id` - (Optional) 45 46 * `password` - (Optional; Required if not using `api_key`) If omitted, the 47 `OS_PASSWORD` environment variable is used. 48 49 * `api_key` - (Optional; Required if not using `password`) 50 51 * `domain_id` - (Optional) If omitted, the `OS_DOMAIN_ID` environment 52 variable is used. 53 54 * `domain_name` - (Optional) If omitted, the `OS_DOMAIN_NAME` 55 environment variable is used. 56 57 * `tenant_id` - (Optional) 58 59 * `tenant_name` - (Optional) If omitted, the `OS_TENANT_NAME` environment 60 variable is used. 61 62 * `insecure` - (Optional) Explicitly allow the provider to perform 63 "insecure" SSL requests. If omitted, default value is `false` 64 65 * `endpoint_type` - (Optional) Specify which type of endpoint to use from the 66 service catalog. It can be set using the OS_ENDPOINT_TYPE environment 67 variable. If not set, public endpoints is used. 68 69 ## Testing and Development 70 71 In order to run the Acceptance Tests for development, the following environment 72 variables must also be set: 73 74 * `OS_REGION_NAME` - The region in which to create the server instance. 75 76 * `OS_IMAGE_ID` or `OS_IMAGE_NAME` - a UUID or name of an existing image in 77 Glance. 78 79 * `OS_FLAVOR_ID` or `OS_FLAVOR_NAME` - an ID or name of an existing flavor. 80 81 * `OS_POOL_NAME` - The name of a Floating IP pool. 82 83 * `OS_NETWORK_ID` - The UUID of a network in your test environment. 84 85 To make development easier, the `builtin/providers/openstack/devstack/deploy.sh` 86 script will assist in installing and configuring a standardized 87 [DevStack](http://docs.openstack.org/developer/devstack/) environment along with 88 Golang, Terraform, and all development dependencies. It will also set the required 89 environment variables in the `devstack/openrc` file. 90 91 Do not run the `deploy.sh` script on your workstation or any type of production 92 server. Instead, run the script within a disposable virtual machine. 93 [Here's](https://github.com/berendt/terraform-configurations) an example of a 94 Terraform configuration that will create an OpenStack instance and then install and 95 configure DevStack inside.
