terraform-provider-execute

Terraform plugin mostly based on https://github.com/gosuri/terraform-exec-provider (thanks!!!). Provides an ability to execute arbitrary commands on Terraform create and destroy.

Usage

resource "execute_command" "command" {
  command "/path/to/command"
  destroy_command "/path/to/command"
}

command - (Required) Command to execute on terraform Create
destroy_command - (Optional) Command to execute on terraform destroy
only_if - (Optional) Guard attribute, to create the resource (Execute) the command only if this guard is satisfied. If the command returns 0, the guard is applied. If the command returns any other value, then the guard attribute is not applied.

The below example will create a 'testfile' file when you run 'terraform apply' and delete the 'testfile' file when you run 'terraform destroy'

resource "execute_command" "commands" {
  command = "touch testfile"
  destroy_command = "rm testfile"
}

$ git clone https://github.com/samsung-cnct/terraform-provider-execute.git
$ cd terraform-exec-provider
$ go get; go build

Then copy the resulting binary to where terraform binary is.

$ brew tap 'samsung-cnct/terraform-provider-execute'
$ brew install terraform-provider-execute

This is a manual release process, we may automate it in the future if there is a need.

Steps:

build linux executable: GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 go build
tar linux executable tar -cf terraform-provider-execute_linux_amd64.tar terraform-provider-execute
gzip linux executable gzip terraform-provider-execute_linux_amd64.tar
repeat above for darwin build
click 'Draft a new release' on releases page
fill out form
Add both tar.gz files
