Terraform: Cloudflare API Support

[omarabid]

This is not a bug report but rather a feature request. The cloudflare API currently supports only the "Record" resource. The GO API Library has many other features, though.

https://godoc.org/github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-go

Any chances of getting some of these into the Cloudflare Provider?

Hi @omarabid!

In an ideal world Terraform would be able to create _everything_, but with finite development time it's necessary to prioritize. If you have some specific use-cases in mind that would be helped by new resources in Terraform it would help a lot if you could describe them a little, which will help to understand which of the Cloudflare concepts would be most useful/valuable.

Personally I'd particularly like to see Page Rules supported in Terraform.

[jamestyrrell]

Yeh, Page Rules support would be excellent.

[mwarkentin]

+1 to page rules.

[OJFord]

I agree with page rules as most important.

Crypto>SSL and automatic HTTPS rewrites (and the other Boolean toggles on that page) are potentially low-hanging but juicy fruit too though.

It doesn't seem like it'd be too difficult (just time-consuming) to implement something else using the existing records implementation as a reference - are you open to PRs for this?

New private beta Load Balancer feature is also worth to implement.

@cemo We're going to push support for our LB API to our Go library "soon" - if you'd like to collaborate on the Terraform integration we're open to it!

@jonleighton @jamestyrrell @mwarkentin - Please feel free to test Page Rules with my branch (#11249) - everything I've tested 'works', in so far as the rules are created.

I am seeing an error coming out of the cloudflare-go library though, which stops terraform saving the state. I'm 90% sure it's a problem in the lib, but I could have done something wrong... YMMV so if any of you do have a chance to test (with some kind of demo, or a copy of something existing, not production of course!) it may be helpful in tracking it down. 🙂

[elithrar]

It's possible that an API change has our v4 API returning an integer for a
value but accepting a string.

Hence, the API response doesn't marshal into a map[string]string.

Debugging should be possible by dumping the response before we marshal.
I'll attempt to take a look at this soon.
