Cloud provider

Quote:

“Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that lets you build, change, and version cloud and on-prem resources safely and efficiently.”

# Define Hetzner cloud provider
terraform {
  required_providers {
    hcloud = {
      source = "hetznercloud/hcloud"
    }
  }
  required_version = ">= 0.13"
}

# Configure the Hetzner Cloud API token
provider "hcloud" {
  token = "your_api_token_goes_here"
}

# Create a server
resource "hcloud_server" "helloServer" {
  name         = "hello"
  image        =  "debian-12"
  server_type  =  "cx11"   
  location     =  "nbg1"
}

Terraform has created a lock file .terraform.lock.hcl to record the provider
selections it made above.  ...

$ terraform plan

Terraform used the selected providers to generate the following execution plan. Resource actions ...
  + create

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # hcloud_server.helloServer will be created
  + resource "hcloud_server" "helloServer" {
      + allow_deprecated_images    = false
      + backup_window              = (known after apply)
  ...
    }

Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

$ terraform apply
...
Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

Do you want to perform these actions?
  Terraform will perform the actions described above.
  Only 'yes' will be accepted to approve.

  Enter a value: yes

hcloud_server.helloServer: Creating...
hcloud_server.helloServer: Still creating... [10s elapsed]
hcloud_server.helloServer: Creation complete after 14s [id=45822789]

Apply complete! Resources: 1 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

Your server "hello" was created!

You can access your server with the following credentials:
 
IPv4	128.140.108.60
IPv6	2a01:4f8:1c1c:8e3a::/64
User	root
Password	rJ3pNvJXbqMp3XNTvFdq

You will be prompted to change your password on your first login.

To improve security, we recommend that you add an SSH key when creating a server.

Solution:

resource "hcloud_firewall" "sshFw" {
  name = "ssh-firewall"
  rule {
    direction = "in"
    protocol  = "tcp"
    port      = "22"
    source_ips = ["0.0.0.0/0", "::/0"]
  }
}
              ...
resource "hcloud_server" "helloServer" {
              ...
  firewall_ids = [hcloud_firewall.sshFw.id]
}

resource "hcloud_ssh_key" "goik" {
  name       = "goik@hdm-stuttgart.de"
  public_key = file("~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub")
}
              ...
resource "hcloud_server" "helloServer" {
              ...
  ssh_keys     = [hcloud_ssh_key.goik.id]
}

$ terraform apply

  # hcloud_firewall.sshFw will be created
  + resource "hcloud_firewall" "sshFw" {
       ...
  # hcloud_server.helloServer will be created
  + resource "hcloud_server" "helloServer" {
       ...
  # hcloud_ssh_key.goik will be created
  + resource "hcloud_ssh_key" "goik" {
       ...
Plan: 3 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.
       ...
Apply complete! Resources: 3 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

See terraform output documentation:

output "hello_ip_addr" {
  value       = hcloud_server.helloServer.ipv4_address
  description = "The server's IPv4 address"
}

output "hello_datacenter" {
  value       = hcloud_server.helloServer.datacenter
  description = "The server's datacenter"
}

$ terraform output
hello_datacenter = "nbg1-dc3"
hello_ip_addr = "159.69.152.37"

$ terraform output hello_ip_addr
"159.69.152.37"

Versioned file main.tf:

...
provider "hcloud" { token = "xdaGfz9LmwO8SWkg ... "}
