# kubernetes_resource_quota

A resource quota provides constraints that limit aggregate resource consumption per namespace. It can limit the quantity of objects that can be created in a namespace by type, as well as the total amount of compute resources that may be consumed by resources in that project.


## Example Usage

```hcl
resource "kubernetes_resource_quota" "example" {
  metadata {
    name = "terraform-example"
  }
  spec {
    hard {
      pods = 10
    }
    scopes = ["BestEffort"]
  }
}
```

## Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

* `metadata` - (Required) Standard resource quota's metadata. More info: https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/api-conventions.md#metadata
* `spec` - (Optional) Spec defines the desired quota. http://releases.k8s.io/HEAD/docs/devel/api-conventions.md#spec-and-status

## Nested Blocks

### `metadata`

#### Arguments

* `annotations` - (Optional) An unstructured key value map stored with the resource quota that may be used to store arbitrary metadata. More info: http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/annotations
* `labels` - (Optional) Map of string keys and values that can be used to organize and categorize (scope and select) the resource quota. May match selectors of replication controllers and services. More info: http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/labels
* `name` - (Optional) Name of the resource quota, must be unique. Cannot be updated. More info: http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/identifiers#names
* `namespace` - (Optional) Namespace defines the space within which name of the resource quota must be unique.

#### Attributes


* `generation` - A sequence number representing a specific generation of the desired state.
* `resource_version` - An opaque value that represents the internal version of this resource quota that can be used by clients to determine when resource quota has changed. Read more: https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/api-conventions.md#concurrency-control-and-consistency
* `self_link` - A URL representing this resource quota.
* `uid` - The unique in time and space value for this resource quota. More info: http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/identifiers#uids

### `spec`

#### Arguments

* `hard` - (Optional) The set of desired hard limits for each named resource. More info: http://releases.k8s.io/HEAD/docs/design/admission_control_resource_quota.md#admissioncontrol-plugin-resourcequota
* `scopes` - (Optional) A collection of filters that must match each object tracked by a quota. If not specified, the quota matches all objects.

## Import

Resource Quota can be imported using its namespace and name, e.g.

```
$ terraform import kubernetes_resource_quota.example default/terraform-example
```
