Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/claranet/terraform-provider-zabbix
$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/claranet; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/claranet
$ git clone [email protected]:claranet/terraform-provider-zabbix
Enter the provider directory and build the provider
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/claranet/terraform-provider-zabbix
$ make build
Note: For contributions created from forks, the repository should still be cloned under the $GOPATH/src/github.com/claranet/terraform-provider-zabbix
directory to allow the provided make
commands to properly run, build, and test this project.
If you're building the provider, follow the instructions to install it as a plugin. After placing it into your plugins directory, run terraform init
to initialize it.
Further usage documentation is available on the Terraform website.
If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.18+ 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 build
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-zabbix
...
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.
$ make testacc
Template linking is used as a way to track template items and triggers in an authoritative way. A template link resource must contain all the ids of your local items and triggers otherwise they will be deleted during the next apply.
- If you use the template link resource to track template dependencies you should pay attention to always have your local item and trigger referenced otherwise they will be deleted and will need to be recreated, causing a permanent diff.
- If you have template dependencies you should use the
template_id
value of thezabbix_template_link
resource to link the children templates to the parent else the child template could be updated before parent item or trigger which lead to errors likeError: Expected to delete 2 trigger and 1 were delete
.
