This repository contains an example setup for managing GitHub resources using the Terraform GitHub provider. It is ideal for automating your GitHub configurations in a declarative manner.

Prerequisites

  • Terraform installed on your machine. Download here.
  • A GitHub account. Sign up here if you don't have one; it's free.
  • A personal access token (PAT) from GitHub with the necessary permissions. Generate one here.

Setup Instructions

  1. Clone the Repository

    git clone https://github.com/mixxor/terraform-github-provider-example.git
    cd terraform-github-provider-example
  2. Initialize Terraform

    Run the following command to initialize the Terraform project, which will download the necessary provider plugins:

    terraform init
  3. Configure Environment Variables

    Set your GitHub token as an environment variable. Replace your_github_token with your actual GitHub token.

    export GITHUB_TOKEN="your_github_token"
  4. Update Terraform Configuration

    Edit the Terraform configuration file (e.g., main.tf) to specify your GitHub organization or the resources you want to manage.
