The purpose of infrastructure as code (IaC) is to create and execute code to define, create, modify, and delete computing, storage and networking infrastructure, with consistency.
- Basics with Terraform HCL
$ terraform init $ terraform plan $ terraform apply
-
Install and configure Terraform to provision Azure resources
-
Create a complete Linux virtual machine infrastructure in Azure with Terraform

terraform init
$ terraform init Initializing the backend... Initializing provider plugins... - Checking for available provider plugins... - Downloading plugin for provider "azurerm" (hashicorp/azurerm) 1.34.0... The following providers do not have any version constraints in configuration, so the latest version was installed. To prevent automatic upgrades to new major versions that may contain breaking changes, it is recommended to add version = "..." constraints to the corresponding provider blocks in configuration, with the constraint strings suggested below. * provider.azurerm: version = "~> 1.34" Terraform has been successfully initialized! You may now begin working with Terraform. Try running "terraform plan" to see any changes that are required for your infrastructure. All Terraform commands should now work. If you ever set or change modules or backend configuration for Terraform, rerun this command to reinitialize your working directory. If you forget, other commands will detect it and remind you to do so if necessary.

Run
terraform plan
$ terraform plan Refreshing Terraform state in-memory prior to plan... The refreshed state will be used to calculate this plan, but will not be persisted to local or remote state storage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ An execution plan has been generated and is shown below. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols: + create Terraform will perform the following actions: # azurerm_network_interface.external will be created ... # azurerm_network_interface.internal will be created ... # azurerm_network_security_group.nsg will be created ... # azurerm_public_ip.public will be created ... # azurerm_resource_group.rg will be created ... # azurerm_subnet.external will be created ... # azurerm_subnet.internal will be created ... # azurerm_virtual_machine.example will be created ... # azurerm_virtual_network.vnet will be created ... Plan: 9 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Note: You didn't specify an "-out" parameter to save this plan, so Terraform can't guarantee that exactly these actions will be performed if "terraform apply" is subsequently run.
