Pulumi Terraform Provider

The Terraform resource provider for Pulumi lets you consume the outputs contained in Terraform state files from your Pulumi programs. The package provides a RemoteStateReference resource which acts like a native Pulumi StackReference.

To use this package, please install the Pulumi CLI first.

Installing

Node.js (JavaScript/TypeScript)

To use from JavaScript or TypeScript in Node.js, install using either npm:

$ npm install @pulumi/terraform

or yarn:

$ yarn add @pulumi/terraform

Python

To use from Python, install using pip:

$ pip install pulumi-terraform

Concepts

The @pulumi/terraform package provides a resource named RemoteStateReference which is used to read outputs from a Terraform state file stored in one of the supported Terraform remote state backends.

Examples

S3

The following program will read a Terraform state file stored in S3:

import * as tf from "@pulumi/terraform";

const remoteState = new tf.state.RemoteStateReference("s3state", {
    backendType: "s3",
    bucket: "pulumi-terraform-state-test",
    key: "test/terraform.tfstate",
    region: "us-west-2"
});

// Use the getOutput function on the resource to access root outputs
const vpcId= remoteState.getOutput("vpc_id");

Local file

The following program will read a Terraform state file stored locally in the filesystem:

import * as tf from "@pulumi/terraform";

const remotestate = new tf.state.RemoteStateReference("localstate", {
   backendType: "local",
   path: path.join(__dirname, "terraform.tfstate"),
});

// Use the getOutput function on the resource to access root outputs
const vpcId= remoteState.getOutput("vpc_id");

Terraform Enterprise

For state stored in Terraform Enterprise, the authentication token must be set via the Pulumi configuration system - for example, using:

pulumi config set --secret terraformEnterpriseToken <value>

The following program will read a Terraform state file stored in Terraform Enterprise, using the value of terraformEnterpriseToken from above:

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as tf from "@pulumi/terraform";

const config = new pulumi.Config();

const ref = new tf.state.RemoteStateReference("remote", {
    backendType: "remote",
    organization: "pulumi",
    token: config.requireSecret("terraformEnterpriseToken"),
    workspaces: {
        name: "test-state-file"
    }
});

// Use the getOutput function on the resource to access root outputs
const vpcId= remoteState.getOutput("vpc_id");
