Lab: Output Variables

Navigate to indicated directory in the Explorer pane.
Which provider is used by the configuration files in this directory?

Know that you can determine provider names from the reource type property of a resource block. The type is of the form provider_type.

Here we can see two distinct resource types:
- random_uuid
- random_integer
From this, we can determine that there is only one provder in use:

random
Which two resource types are configured in the configuration files?

In determining the answer to Q2, we've also determined the answer to this question.
Inspect output.tf

Run terraform init, plan and apply to create these resources.

cd /root/terraform-projects/data
terraform init
terraform plan
terraform apply

What is the value of the output variable called id2 ?

Note that we can acutally see all the outputs from the terraform apply, however if the screen had been cleared or we were to come back later (in a real environment), we use terraform output command.
```
terraform output id2
```
The value for id2 will be printed.
What is the value of the output variable called order1 ?
```
terraform output order1
```
We have a new configuration directory located at the path /root/terraform-projects/output. Inspect the configuration files that are created in this directory.

Note that there is a terraform.tfstate file in this directory (more on this in later lectures). This means that terraform apply has already been run.
```
cd /root/terraform-projects/output
terraform output pet-name
```
We have just updated the main.tf file in this directory with a new resource block. Add a new output variable...
- Output Variable Name: welcome_message
- Value: content of the resource called welcome
1. Add the output variable block
  Reveal
  output "welcome_message" { value = local_file.welcome.content }
2. Deploy
```
cd /root/terraform-projects/output
terraform init
terraform plan
terraform apply
```
