Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.13+ is required). 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 bin
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-brightbox
...

In order to test the provider, you can simply run make test.

$ make test

In order to run the full suite of Acceptance tests, set the following environment variables

• BRIGHTBOX_CLIENT. The Client Id for an account
• BRIGHTBOX_CLIENT_SECRET. The client secret for the Id.
• BRIGHTBOX_API_URL. The Brightbox API endpoint you wish to talk to.
• BRIGHTBOX_ORBIT_URL. The Brightbox Orbit endpoint you wish to talk to.

Then run make testacc.

$ make testacc

To run individual sets of tests add a TESTARGS argument

$ make testacc TESTARGS="-run TestAccBrightboxFirewallPolicy"
