Terraform Provider for Ansible

The Terraform Provider for Ansible provides a more straightforward and robust means of executing Ansible automation from Terraform than local-exec. Paired with the inventory plugin in the Ansible cloud.terraform collection, users can run Ansible playbooks and roles on infrastructure provisioned by Terraform. The provider also includes integrated ansible-vault support.

This provider can be found in the Terraform Registry here.

For more details on using Terraform and Ansible together see these blog posts:

Requirements

Installation for Local Development

Run make. This will build a terraform-provider-ansible binary in the top level of the project. To get Terraform to use this binary, configure the development overrides for the provider installation. The easiest way to do this will be to create a config file with the following contents:

provider_installation {
  dev_overrides {
    "ansible/ansible" = "/path/to/project/root"
  }

  direct {}
}

The /path/to/project/root should point to the location where you have cloned this repo, where the terraform-provider-ansible binary will be built. You can then set the TF_CLI_CONFIG_FILE environment variable to point to this config file, and Terraform will use the provider binary you just built.

Testing

Lint:

curl -L https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/releases/download/v1.50.1/golangci-lint-1.50.1-linux-amd64.tar.gz \
    | tar --wildcards -xzf - --strip-components 1 "**/golangci-lint"
curl -L https://github.com/nektos/act/releases/download/v0.2.34/act_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz \
    | tar -xzf - act

# linters
