Quick start

1. Install Terraform binaries from the official VK Cloud mirror.

2. Create a provider mirror file and paste it in the directory.

   Windows

   Other OS

   1. Create the terraform.rc file.

   2. Add the code to it.

      1provider_installation {
      2     network_mirror {
      3         url = "https://terraform-mirror.mcs.mail.ru"
      4         include = ["registry.terraform.io/*/*"]
      5     }
      6     direct {
      7         exclude = ["registry.terraform.io/*/*"]
      8     }
      9 }
      

   3. Paste %APPDATA% into the address bar of Windows Explorer and copy the file terraform.rc to the directory that opens.

3. Create a main.tf file and describe the necessary terraform providers in it. File consists from the blocks:

   • The first terraform block describes which providers are required (required_providers). Inside is vkcs provider source and its versions. If you are going to use additional providers, add them in this block.

   1terraform {
   2    required_providers {
   3        vkcs = {
   4            source = "vk-cs/vkcs"
   5        }
   6    }
   7}
   

   • The provider "vkcs" block describes the settings for the provider from VK Cloud. Specify user_name and password for your personal account, also fill your account password to password parameter.

   1provider "vkcs" {
   2    username="USER_NAME"
   3    password = "YOUR_PASSWORD"
   4    project_id = "111111111111111111111111111"
   5    region = "RegionOne"
   6}
   

In the directory with the file main.tf run the command:

terraform init

Additional files necessary for working with Terraform will be created.

Enable two-factor authentication and enable API access.

1. Run the command:

   terraform apply
   

   The apply command applies your Terraform configuration (plan) to VK Cloud resources specified in the file main.tf.

2. Confirm the creation by typing yes in the terminal window.
