If there 17 is a SoftLayer feature missing, please report it in the GitHub repo. 18 19 ## Example Usage 20 21 Here is an example that will setup the following: 22 23 + An SSH key resource. 24 + A virtual server resource that uses an existing SSH key. 25 + A virtual server resource using an existing SSH key and a Terraform managed SSH key (created as `test_key_1` in the example below). 26 27 Add the below to a file called `sl.tf` and run the `terraform` command from the same directory: 28 29 ```hcl 30 provider "softlayer" { 31 username = "" 32 api_key = "" 33 } 34 35 # This will create a new SSH key that will show up under the \ 36 # Devices>Manage>SSH Keys in the SoftLayer console. 37 resource "softlayer_ssh_key" "test_key_1" { 38 name = "test_key_1" 39 public_key = "${file(\"~/.ssh/id_rsa_test_key_1.pub\")}" 40 41 # Windows Example: 42 # public_key = "${file(\"C:\ssh\keys\path\id_rsa_test_key_1.pub\")}" 43 } 44 45 # Virtual Server created with existing SSH Key already in SoftLayer \ 46 # inventory and not created using this Terraform template. 47 resource "softlayer_virtual_guest" "my_server_1" { 48 name = "my_server_1" 49 domain = "example.com" 50 ssh_keys = ["123456"] 51 image = "DEBIAN_7_64" 52 region = "ams01" 53 public_network_speed = 10 54 cpu = 1 55 ram = 1024 56 } 57 58 # Virtual Server created with a mix of previously existing and \ 59 # Terraform created/managed resources. 60 resource "softlayer_virtual_guest" "my_server_2" { 61 name = "my_server_2" 62 domain = "example.com" 63 ssh_keys = ["123456", "${softlayer_ssh_key.test_key_1.id}"] 64 image = "CENTOS_6_64" 65 region = "ams01" 66 public_network_speed = 10 67 cpu = 1 68 ram = 1024 69 } 70 ``` 71 72 You'll need to provide your SoftLayer username and API key, 73 so that Terraform can connect. If you don't want to put 74 credentials in your configuration file, you can leave them 75 out: 76 77 ``` 78 provider "softlayer" {} 79 ``` 80 81 ...and instead set these environment variables: 82 83 - **SOFTLAYER_USERNAME**: Your SoftLayer username 84 - **SOFTLAYER_API_KEY**: Your API key
