A utility to ease the development of terraform custom provider by generating scaffolds for provider and their components.
Terraform is one of the best software available to automate infrastructure and no procrastination in accepting this fact.
How about extending Terraform?. It would be great when we try solving complexity that is project-specific, and Terraform offers the same feature in the form of a custom provider. How to create one such provider? They have well documented steps for it.
How about accelerating the development of such custom-provider with the scaffolds? Terragen helps here. It generates scaffolds for provider, resources, and data_sources that eases the development of the custom provider.
Supports the addition of new scaffolds of data_source and resource for a specific Terraform provider as and when required.
