Terraform Provider

Terraform provider for Infoblox appliance.

Requirements

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

Building The Provider

Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/sky-uk/terraform-provider-infoblox

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/sky-uk; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/sky-uk
$ git clone git@github.com:sky-uk/terraform-provider-infoblox

Enter the provider directory and build the provider

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/sky-uk/terraform-provider-infoblox
$ make build

Template examples

• Network

  This is an essential object to have DHCP scopes in Infoblox, by default when you create a network it makes it available for dhcp, this is controlled by the parameter "disable" which disables the network for DHCP as the name suggests. Here we can see an example of how to create a network and the required parameters

  resource "infoblox_network" "mynet" {
       comment = "My awesome network",
       network = "172.17.10.0/24",
       option {
              name = "routers",
              num = 3,
              useoption = true,
              value =  "172.17.10.1",
              vendorclass =  "DHCP"
       }
       option {
            name =  "domain-name-servers",
            num= 6,
            useoption =  true
            value = "8.8.8.8",
            vendorclass =  "DHCP"
       }
  } 
  

  For each DHCP option you need, you have to setup a option block as per the example above. The only required field is the network field, so the bare minimum required to create a network is

  resource "infoblox_network" "mynet" {
            network = "172.17.10.0/24"
  }
  

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.

$ make bin
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-infoblox
...

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

$ make 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.
