Terraform::Binary

A gem to install and interface with HashiCorp's Terraform utility

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'terraform-binary'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install terraform-binary

You need to specify which version of HashiCorp Terraform to use. You can also specify where to save the binary file.

require 'terraform/binary'

Terraform::Binary.configure do |config|
  config.version = '1.0.4'
  config.download_path = '/tmp'
end

The {Terraform::Binary} module will automagically map method calls to terraform commands. This serves to better support future versions of terraform and potentially new commands. For example, the equivalent of terraform plan test/dir in Ruby:

Terraform::Binary.plan('test/dir')

If you call a method not supported by the terraform binary, you will get a {Terraform::Binary::Command::CommandFailure} exception.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
