Add a secret via Terraform

We recommend creating resources in order. If you create all resources at once, Terraform will account for dependencies between resources that you specified in the configuration file. If dependencies are not specified, resources will be created in parallel, which may lead to errors. For instance, a resource required for creating another resource might not have been created yet.


  1. Optional: configure providers.
  2. Add a secret.

Configuration files

Sample file for configuring providers
terraform {
required_providers {
selectel = {
source = "selectel/selectel"
version = "~> 6.0"
}
openstack = {
source = "terraform-provider-openstack/openstack"
version = "2.1.0"
}
}
}

provider "selectel" {
domain_name = "123456"
username = "user"
password = "password"
auth_region = "ru-9"
auth_url = "https://cloud.api.selcloud.ru/identity/v3/"
}

resource "selectel_vpc_project_v2" "project_1" {
name = "project"
}

resource "selectel_iam_serviceuser_v1" "serviceuser_1" {
name = "username"
password = "password"
role {
role_name = "member"
scope = "project"
project_id = selectel_vpc_project_v2.project_1.id
}
}

provider "openstack" {
auth_url = "https://cloud.api.selcloud.ru/identity/v3"
domain_name = "123456"
tenant_id = selectel_vpc_project_v2.project_1.id
user_name = selectel_iam_serviceuser_v1.serviceuser_1.name
password = selectel_iam_serviceuser_v1.serviceuser_1.password
region = "ru-9"
}
Sample file for adding a secret
resource "selectel_secretsmanager_secret_v1" "secret_1" {
key = "secret"
value = "verysecret"
project_id = selectel_vpc_project_v2.project_1.id
description = "secret from .tf"
}

1. Optional: configure providers

If you have configured the Selectel and OpenStack providers, skip this step.

  1. Make sure you have created a service user in the control panel member with roles in the Account access scope and iam.admin.

  2. Create a directory to store configuration files and a separate file with the .tf extension to configure providers.

  3. Add the Selectel and OpenStack providers to the file for provider configuration:

    terraform {
    required_providers {
    selectel = {
    source = "selectel/selectel"
    version = "~> 7.1.0"
    }
    openstack = {
    source = "terraform-provider-openstack/openstack"
    version = "2.1.0"
    }
    }
    }

    Here version is the provider version. The current version can be found in the Selectel documentation (in Terraform Registry and GitHub) and OpenStack (in Terraform Registry and GitHub).

    For more information about products, services, and features that can be managed using providers, see the Selectel and OpenStack Providers guide.

  4. Initialize the Selectel provider:

    provider "selectel" {
    domain_name = "123456"
    username = "user"
    password = "password"
    auth_region = "ru-9"
    auth_url = "https://cloud.api.selcloud.ru/identity/v3/"
    }

    Where:

    • domain_name — Selectel account number. You can find it in the control panel in the top-right corner;
    • username — the name of the service user with the member role in the Account access scope and iam.admin. You can view it in the control panel: in the top menu, click IAMService Users section (this section is only available to the account owner and users with the iam.admin role);
    • password — service user password. You can view it when creating the user or change it to a new one;
    • auth_regionpool for authorization in the ru-9 format; do not use pools in the SPB-2 format. The authorization pool might not match the pool in which you create resources. The list of available pools can be viewed in the guide Product availability by location.
  5. Create a project:

    resource "selectel_vpc_project_v2" "project_1" {
    name = "project"
    }

    See the detailed resource description for selectel_vpc_project_v2.

  6. Create a service user for project access and assign the member role in the Project access scope:

    resource "selectel_iam_serviceuser_v1" "serviceuser_1" {
    name = "username"
    password = "password"
    role {
    role_name = "member"
    scope = "project"
    project_id = selectel_vpc_project_v2.project_1.id
    }
    }

    Where:

    • username — user name;

    • password — user password. The password must be at least 20 characters long and include at least:

      • one uppercase and one lowercase Latin letter (A-Z, a-z);
      • one digit (0-9);
      • one special character from the ASCII Printable 7-Bit Special Characters list:
        !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[]^_{|}~;
    • project_id — project ID. You can find it in the Control panel: in the top menu, click IAM → the Projects section → in the line of the required project, click .

    View the detailed description of the resource selectel_iam_serviceuser_v1.

  7. Initialize the OpenStack provider:

    provider "openstack" {
    auth_url = "https://cloud.api.selcloud.ru/identity/v3"
    domain_name = "123456"
    tenant_id = selectel_vpc_project_v2.project_1.id
    user_name = selectel_iam_serviceuser_v1.serviceuser_1.name
    password = selectel_iam_serviceuser_v1.serviceuser_1.password
    region = "ru-9"
    }

    Where:

    • domain_name — Selectel account number. You can find it in the Control panel in the upper right corner;
    • regionpool, for example ru-9. All resources will be created in this pool. The list of available pools can be viewed in the guide Product availability by location.
  8. If you create resources at the same time as configuring providers, add the depends_on argument for OpenStack resources. For example, for the openstack_networking_network_v2 resource:

    resource "openstack_networking_network_v2" "network_1" {
    name = "private-network"
    admin_state_up = "true"

    depends_on = [
    selectel_vpc_project_v2.project_1,
    selectel_iam_serviceuser_v1.serviceuser_1
    ]
    }
  9. Optional: if you want to use a mirror, create a separate Terraform CLI configuration file and add the following block to it:

    provider_installation {
    network_mirror {
    url = "https://tf-proxy.selectel.ru/mirror/v1/"
    include = ["registry.terraform.io/*/*"]
    }
    direct {
    exclude = ["registry.terraform.io/*/*"]
    }
    }

    Learn more about mirror settings in the CLI Configuration File HashiCorp documentation.

  10. Open the CLI.

  11. Initialize the Terraform configuration in the directory:

    terraform init
  12. Verify that the configuration files are syntactically correct:

    terraform validate
  13. Format the configuration files:

    terraform fmt
  14. Check which resources will be created:

    terraform plan
  15. Apply the changes and create the resources:

    terraform apply
  16. Confirm the creation: enter yes and press Enter. The created resources will be displayed in the Control panel.

  17. If there are not enough quotas to create resources, increase quotas.

2. Add a secret

resource "selectel_secretsmanager_secret_v1" "secret_1" {
key = "secret"
value = "verysecret"
project_id = selectel_vpc_project_v2.project_1.id
description = "secret from .tf"
}

Where:

  • key — secret name;
  • value — secret value;
  • description — secret description.

See the detailed resource description for selectel_secretsmanager_secret_v1.
