# Salt Masterless Provisioner
Type: `salt-masterless`
The `salt-masterless` Terraform provisioner provisions machines built by Terraform
using [Salt](http://saltstack.com/) states, without connecting to a Salt master. The `salt-masterless` provisioner supports `ssh` [connections](/docs/provisioners/connection.html).
!> **Note:** This provisioner was removed in the 0.14.0 version of Terraform after being deprecated as of Terraform 0.13.4. For most common situations there are better alternatives to using provisioners. For more information, see [the main Provisioners page](./).
## Requirements
The `salt-masterless` provisioner has some prerequisites. `cURL` must be available on the remote host.
## Example usage
The example below is fully functional.
```hcl
provisioner "salt-masterless" {
"local_state_tree" = "/srv/salt"
}
```
## Argument Reference
The reference of available configuration options is listed below. The only
required argument is the path to your local salt state tree.
Optional:
- `bootstrap_args` (string) - Arguments to send to the bootstrap script. Usage
is somewhat documented on
[github](https://github.com/saltstack/salt-bootstrap), but the [script
itself](https://github.com/saltstack/salt-bootstrap/blob/develop/bootstrap-salt.sh)
has more detailed usage instructions. By default, no arguments are sent to
the script.
- `disable_sudo` (boolean) - By default, the bootstrap install command is prefixed with `sudo`. When using a
Docker builder, you will likely want to pass `true` since `sudo` is often not pre-installed.
- `remote_pillar_roots` (string) - The path to your remote [pillar
roots](http://docs.saltstack.com/ref/configuration/master.html#pillar-configuration).
default: `/srv/pillar`. This option cannot be used with `minion_config`.
- `remote_state_tree` (string) - The path to your remote [state
tree](http://docs.saltstack.com/ref/states/highstate.html#the-salt-state-tree).
default: `/srv/salt`. This option cannot be used with `minion_config`.
- `local_pillar_roots` (string) - The path to your local [pillar
roots](http://docs.saltstack.com/ref/configuration/master.html#pillar-configuration).
This will be uploaded to the `remote_pillar_roots` on the remote.
- `local_state_tree` (string) - The path to your local [state
tree](http://docs.saltstack.com/ref/states/highstate.html#the-salt-state-tree).
This will be uploaded to the `remote_state_tree` on the remote.
- `custom_state` (string) - A state to be run instead of `state.highstate`.
Defaults to `state.highstate` if unspecified.
- `minion_config_file` (string) - The path to your local [minion config
file](http://docs.saltstack.com/ref/configuration/minion.html). This will be
uploaded to the `/etc/salt` on the remote. This option overrides the
`remote_state_tree` or `remote_pillar_roots` options.
- `skip_bootstrap` (boolean) - By default the salt provisioner runs [salt
bootstrap](https://github.com/saltstack/salt-bootstrap) to install salt. Set
this to true to skip this step.
- `temp_config_dir` (string) - Where your local state tree will be copied
before moving to the `/srv/salt` directory. Default is `/tmp/salt`.
- `no_exit_on_failure` (boolean) - Terraform will exit if the `salt-call` command
fails. Set this option to true to ignore Salt failures.
- `log_level` (string) - Set the logging level for the `salt-call` run.
- `salt_call_args` (string) - Additional arguments to pass directly to `salt-call`. See
[salt-call](https://docs.saltstack.com/ref/cli/salt-call.html) documentation for more
information. By default no additional arguments (besides the ones Terraform generates)
are passed to `salt-call`.
- `salt_bin_dir` (string) - Path to the `salt-call` executable. Useful if it is not
on the PATH.
