Requirements
Using the provider
See the Google Provider documentation to get started using the
Google provider.
We also maintain the 'google-beta' provider for preview features and features at a beta launch stage. See Provider Versions
for more details on how to use google-beta
.
Upgrading the provider
The Google provider doesn't upgrade automatically once you've started using it. After a new release you can run
terraform init -upgrade
to upgrade to the latest stable version of the Google provider. See the Terraform website
for more information on provider upgrades, and how to set version constraints on your provider.
Building the provider
Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-google
$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/hashicorp; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hashicorp
$ git clone git@github.com:hashicorp/terraform-provider-google
Enter the provider directory and build the provider
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-google
$ make build
Developing the provider
If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go
installed on your machine (version 1.16.0+ is required). You can use goenv
to manage your Go version. 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-google
...
