### What is the purpose of this folder?
|
|
|
|
This folder contains git-patches for the Terraform repository. When running Terraform-tests against Moto, these patches will be applied automatically.
|
|
|
|
See http://docs.getmoto.org/en/latest/docs/contributing/development_tips/tests.html#terraform-tests on how to run the tests.
|
|
|
|
#### What kind of patches are there?
|
|
- Patches that set the endpoint to localhost, to ensure the tests are run against Moto
|
|
- Patches that reduce the wait time for resources. AWS may take a few minutes before an EC2 instance is spun up, Moto does this immediately - so it's not necessary for Terraform to wait until resources are ready
|
|
- etc
|
|
|
|
#### How do I create a new patch?
|
|
|
|
- Checkout the repository, and open a terminal in the root-directory
|
|
- Go into the Terraform-directory:
|
|
```commandline
|
|
cd tests/terraformtests/terraform-provider-aws
|
|
```
|
|
- Ensure the right Terraform-branch is selected, and is clean:
|
|
```commandline
|
|
git checkout main
|
|
git checkout .
|
|
```
|
|
- Create a new branch:
|
|
```commandline
|
|
git checkout -b patch-my-changes
|
|
```
|
|
- Make the required changes.
|
|
- Commit your changes
|
|
- Create a patch:
|
|
```commandline
|
|
git format-patch main
|
|
```
|
|
- Move the created patch-file into this folder
|
|
- Update `tests/terraformtests/bin/run_go_test` with the new patch-file
