For the moment this is just an experimental additional sidecar package build process, separate from the one we really use for releases, so that we can get some experience building in the GitHub Actions environment before hopefully eventually switching to using the artifacts from this process as the packages we'll release through the official release channels. It will react to any push to one of our release branches or to a release tag by building official-release-like .zip, .deb, and .rpm packages, along with Docker images, based on the content of the corresponding commit. For the moment this doesn't actually produce _shippable_ packages because in particular it doesn't know how to update our version/version.go file to hard-code the correct version number. Once Go 1.18 is release and we've upgraded to it we'll switch to using debug.ReadBuildInfo to determine our version number at runtime and so no longer need to directly update a source file for each release, but that functionality isn't yet available in our current Go 1.17 release. |

Terraform is a tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure safely and efficiently. Terraform can manage existing and popular service providers as well as custom in-house solutions.
The key features of Terraform are:
-
Infrastructure as Code: Infrastructure is described using a high-level configuration syntax. This allows a blueprint of your datacenter to be versioned and treated as you would any other code. Additionally, infrastructure can be shared and re-used.
-
Execution Plans: Terraform has a "planning" step where it generates an execution plan. The execution plan shows what Terraform will do when you call apply. This lets you avoid any surprises when Terraform manipulates infrastructure.
-
Resource Graph: Terraform builds a graph of all your resources, and parallelizes the creation and modification of any non-dependent resources. Because of this, Terraform builds infrastructure as efficiently as possible, and operators get insight into dependencies in their infrastructure.
-
Change Automation: Complex changesets can be applied to your infrastructure with minimal human interaction. With the previously mentioned execution plan and resource graph, you know exactly what Terraform will change and in what order, avoiding many possible human errors.
For more information, see the introduction section of the Terraform website.
Getting Started & Documentation
Documentation is available on the Terraform website:
If you're new to Terraform and want to get started creating infrastructure, please check out our Getting Started guides on HashiCorp's learning platform. There are also additional guides to continue your learning.
Show off your Terraform knowledge by passing a certification exam. Visit the certification page for information about exams and find study materials on HashiCorp's learning platform.
Developing Terraform
This repository contains only Terraform core, which includes the command line interface and the main graph engine. Providers are implemented as plugins, and Terraform can automatically download providers that are published on the Terraform Registry. HashiCorp develops some providers, and others are developed by other organizations. For more information, see Extending Terraform.
