Terraform

The KraftCloud provider for Terraform allows unikernel instances to be managed on KraftCloud using HashiCorp Terraform.

Quick Start

To use the KraftCloud provider in a Terraform module, start by declaring a provider requirement for the kraftcloud provider inside a terraform block:

terraform.tf
terraform {
required_providers {
kraftcloud = {
source = "registry.terraform.io/kraftcloud/kraftcloud"
version = "~>0.1"
}
}
}

Next, run terraform init to initialize the workspace and download the kraftcloud provider from the Terraform Registry.

You can then configure the kraftcloud provider as outlined in its documentation, and declare the unikernel instances that should be run on KraftCloud using the resources exposed by the provider:

main.tf
provider "kraftcloud" {
metro = "fra0"
}
resource "kraftcloud_instance" "example" {
image = "index.unikraft.io/official/nginx:latest"
memory_mb = 64
port = 8080
autostart = true
}

Finally, run terraform apply to apply the configuration and run the described KraftCloud instance(s).
