Terraform Provider Cloudvision Portal(CVP)

Description

This is a terraform provider that will use Terraform to drive cloudvision resources.

The provider gives the ability to

• Add new Arista EOS devices to Cloud vision portal.
• Manage Cloud vision portal configlets.
• Manage Cloud vision portal containers.
• Move Arista EOS devices to their proper containers.
• Attach additional configlets to each device.

The provider itself can be found on the official Terraform registery as cloudvision

The provider uses go-cvprac which provides connectivy to either the Cloudvision on prem or Cloudvision as a service(cvaas)

Creating a token for Cloud vision.

Before proceeding please leverage the cloudvision service token.

To receive a service token please follow this guide

Once the token is issued it will need to be either referenced within a var as the following.

provider "cvprovider" {
    cvp = "10.90.226.175"
    cvptoken = "locationoftoken.txt"
    port = 443
}

The alternative and suggested method is to use a environmental variable. For example,

export TF_VAR_cvptoken=123456789abcdefghi

Building the provider for testing

Linux amd-64

make linux

Darwin amd-64

make darwin

terraform {
  required_providers {
    cvprovider = {

  }
}

provider "cvprovider" {
    cvp = "cloudvisionservernameorip"
    token = "${var.cvptoken}"
    port = 443
}

data "cvprovider_data_inventory" "all" {
}


output "test" {
   value = [for k in data.cvprovider_data_inventory.all.inventory : k.hostname]
}

All demos can be found within the examples/ directory.

 cd examples/data-sources/example-data-inventory

Truncated output

Changes to Outputs:
  + test = [
      + "SPINE-2",
      + "SPINE-1",
      + "LEAF3",

If this works you should be able to successfully run resources. This test is a simple test making sure that you can talk to Cloudvision portal.
