A Terraform provider for interacting with the Wistia API to create projects, media, etc.
Maybe you want to create a lot of projects and populate them with a bunch of media. Maybe you want to do this repeatedly, perhaps for QA purposes or for automated testing. Computers are really good at this type of thing, so let's have them do the heavy lifting.
You'll need these tools to be installed:
If you're on macOS, Homebrew is a good way to install these:
brew install golang terraform just
For other systems, please use your favorite package manager.
Build the provider and install it in ~/.terraform.d` where Terraform expects to find it:
just install
Then, look through the examples and create your own configuration in a file like lenny_learns_terraform.tf. See the
docs directory for information about supported resources and options.
See the Terraform docs for details about the language and how to create resource configurations.
The examples directory has working configuration examples that you can use to create projects and media. You'll need to have an access token for your Wistia account (Account -> Settings -> API Access) that has read, update, delete, and upload permissions. Drop that token into the commands below, as indicated.
cd examples
terraform init
WISTIA_ACCESS_TOKEN="your access token goes here" terraform plan
The video files aren't included in this repository, so you'll need to edit the file paths to point at something on your computer or upload by URL instead.
This provider is offered as-is, with no guarantee of support or bug fixes. If you find it useful, though, we'd love to hear from you. Please open an issue and let us know how you're using Terraform with Wistia.
