For more information about the provider resources, see the documentation on the Terraform
If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed.
If you don't have Terraform, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.
To get information about a file storage using Terraform:
-
Add the
data
andoutput
sections to the Terraform configuration file:data "yandex_compute_filesystem" "my_fs" { filesystem_id = "<file_storage_ID>" } output "filesystem" { value = data.yandex_compute_filesystem.my_fs.size }
Where:
data "yandex_compute_filesystem"
: Description of the file storage as a data source:resource_id
: File storage ID.
output "filesystem"
: Output variable that contains information about the file storage size:value
: Returned value.
You can replace
size
with any other parameter to get the information you need. For more information about theyandex_compute_filesystem
data source parameters, see the relevant provider documentation . -
Create resources:
-
In the terminal, change to the folder where you edited the configuration file.
-
Make sure the configuration file is correct using the command:
terraform validate
If the configuration is correct, the following message is returned:
Success! The configuration is valid.
-
Run the command:
terraform plan
The terminal will display a list of resources with parameters. No changes are made at this step. If the configuration contains errors, Terraform will point them out.
-
Apply the configuration changes:
terraform apply
-
Confirm the changes: type
yes
in the terminal and press Enter.
Terraform will create the required resources and display the output variable values in the terminal. To check the results, run:
terraform output
Result:
filesystem = "5"
