  • Ask HN: Why is there no Terraform OpenAPI generator?
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 14 Oct 2022
    Hi folks,

    My company has an OpenAPI3 spec. We have a community supported Terraform provider that we are moving in-house soon.

    I was wondering why there is no easy way to generate a Terraform provider from an OpenAPI spec?

    There's no open issue in the generator project[0].

    Some googling turned up a couple of projects[1],[2], but they only support Swagger; OpenAPI is the successor to Swagger. There is some progress on supporting OpenAPI[3]. I also found this provider, which is a thin wrapper around REST calls[4].

    It's not discussed very much on the Terraform forum[5].

    Either I'm missing the need for this or underestimating the difficulty.

  • Terraform vs. AWS CloudFormation: The Ultimate Comparison
    2 projects | /r/programming | 21 Mar 2022
    Unless CloudFormation has some way to work with external systems? In my case I wasn't even using a built-in Terraform provider, but a REST API provider which calls our external service's API.

    There is also Mastercard/Rest provider which IMHO results in a bit more natural HCL2 syntax.
  • Terraform Is Not the Golden Hammer
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 19 Sep 2021
    I've used https://github.com/Mastercard/terraform-provider-restapi successfully with a cloud provider which provides a suitable HTTP API. There was a bit of fiddling with JSON formatting and their API docs, but it wasn't too hard all in all.

    But like you say - now I've done that, I want to do it for every UI that I'm forced to log in to!
