Terraform Provider for Kamatera

Installation

• Install terraform (version 1.0 or higher)

Resource Reference

• kamatera_server resource
• kamatera_datacenter data source
• kamatera_image data source

Usage Guide

To create a server resource, it's recommended to use our server configuration interface which provides ready to use Terraform templates with valid configuration options and identifiers according to your selection.

Example Usage

This is an example end to end usage of common functionality, see sections below for additional functionality examples.

Set environment variables

export KAMATERA_API_CLIENT_ID=
export KAMATERA_API_SECRET=

Create a main.tf file:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    kamatera = {
      source = "Kamatera/kamatera"
    }
  }
}

provider "kamatera" {
}

# define the data center we will create the server and all related resources in
# see the section below "Listing available data centers" for more details
data "kamatera_datacenter" "toronto" {
  country = "Canada"
  name = "Toronto"
}

# define the server image we will create the server with
# see the section below "Listing available public images" for more details
# also see "Using a private image" if you want to use a private image you created yourself
data "kamatera_image" "ubuntu_1804" {
  datacenter_id = data.kamatera_datacenter.toronto.id
  os = "Ubuntu"
  code = "18.04 64bit"
}

# create a private network to use with the server
resource "kamatera_network" "my_private_network" {
  # the network must be in the same datacenter as the server
  datacenter_id = data.kamatera_datacenter.toronto.id
  name = "my-private-network"
  
  # define multiple subnets to use in this network
  # this subnet shows full available subnet configurations
  # the subnet below shows a more minimal example
  subnet {
    ip = "172.16.0.0"
    bit = 23
    description = "my first subnet"
    dns1 = "1.2.3.4"
    dns2 = "5.6.7.8"
    gateway = "172.16.0.100"
  }
  
  # a subnet with just the minimal required configuration
  subnet {
    ip = "192.168.0.0"
    bit = 23
  }
}

# create another private network, to show how to connect 2 networks to the server
resource "kamatera_network" "my_other_private_network" {
  datacenter_id = data.kamatera_datacenter.toronto.id
  name = "other-network"
  
  subnet {
    ip = "10.0.0.0"
    bit = 23
  }
}

# this defines the server resource with most configuration options
resource "kamatera_server" "my_server" {
  name = "my_server"
  datacenter_id = data.kamatera_datacenter.toronto.id
  cpu_type = "B"
  cpu_cores = 2
  ram_mb = 2048
  disk_sizes_gb = [15, 20]
  billing_cycle = "monthly"
  image_id = data.kamatera_image.ubuntu_1804.id
  password = "Aa123456789!"
  startup_script = "echo hello from startup script > /var/hello.txt"
  
  # this attaches a public network to the server
  # which will also allocate a public IP
  network {
    name = "wan"
  }
  
  # attach a private network with a specified ip
  network {
    # note that the network full_name attribute needs to be used
    # this value is populated with the full name of the network which may be different then 
    # the given network name
    name = resource.kamatera_network.my_private_network.full_name
    ip = "192.168.0.10"
  }
  
  # attache a private network with auto-allocated ip from the available ips in that network
  network {
    name = resource.kamatera_network.my_other_private_network.full_name
  }
}

Init and apply:

terraform init && terraform apply

Listing available data centers

Add a datacenter resource without specifying any fields:

data "kamatera_datacenter" "frankfurt" {
}

Run terraform plan

It will output an error message containing the list of availalbe datacenters.

For example to use the Frankfurt datacenter from the following output line:

 │ "EU-FR"  "Germany"       "Frankfurt"  

The corresponding datacenter resource should look like this:

data "kamatera_datacenter" "frankfurt" {
  country = "Germany"
  name = "Frankfurt"
}

Listing available public images

Add an image resource to your .tf file while specifying only the datacenter, for example:

data "kamatera_image" "my_image" {
  datacenter_id = data.kamatera_datacenter.petach_tikva.id
}

Run terraform plan

It will output an error message containing the list of availalbe public images for this datacenter.

The first column in the output contains the value for the os argument and the second column is the code argument for the image resource.

For example to use the image from the following output line:

│ "Ubuntu"   "22.04 64bit_optimized"        "Ubuntu Server version 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) 64-bit.

The corresponding image resource should look like this:

data "kamatera_image" "ubuntu_1804" {
  datacenter_id = data.kamatera_datacenter.petach_tikva.id
  os = "Ubuntu"
  code = "22.04 64bit_optimized"
}

Using a private image

You can get the private image name from Kamatare Console -> Hard Disk Library -> My Private Images

You can then use this name to specify the image data source:

data "kamatera_image" "my_private_image" {
  datacenter_id = data.kamatera_datacenter.petach_tikva.id
  private_image_name = "your-private-image-name"
}

This image data source can then be used the same as a public image data source in the server resource:

# this defines the server resource with most configuration options
resource "kamatera_server" "my_server" {
  ...
  image_id = data.kamatera_image.my_private_image.id
  ...
}

Importing Existing Resources

This module supports the terraform import subcommand to import existing resources to Terraform.

Importing Network Resources

To get the existing network resource ID, go to Kamatera Console -> My Cloud -> Networks. Choose the relevant datacenter. Note the datacenter ID - 2 uppercase letters. Note the network ID - under the ID column.

The existing resource ID is datacenter_id:network_id

For example, to import an existing network in datacenter IL with ID 432, you would run the following:

terraform import kamatera_network.my_network IL:432

Importing Server Resources

To get the existing server resource ID, go to Kamatera Console -> My Cloud -> Servers. Click on the relevant server and note the Server ID.

Example import command:

terraform import kamatera_server.my_server 12345678-aaaa-bbbb-cccc-1234567890ab
