v0.9.6

Compare Source

Highlights

  • Added terraform import support for libvirt_domain using an existing domain UUID.
  • Added configurable shutdown timeout handling for domain updates that need to stop a running guest before redefine.
  • Improved readback preservation for optional nested objects to reduce unintended diffs.

What's Changed

Domain lifecycle and import
  • Add terraform import support for libvirt_domain by UUID, allowing Terraform state to be populated from an existing libvirt domain definition.
  • Add configurable update shutdown behavior so domain updates can request guest shutdown and wait with a configurable timeout before forcing a stop.
  • Add lifecycle tests covering the new shutdown timeout behavior during updates.
Readback and state preservation
  • Preserve optional nested objects on readback so unset nested state is not synthesized from libvirt defaults when the user did not configure it.
  • Move readback preservation behavior into code generation policy, making the preservation rules more consistent across generated conversions.
  • Add tests covering nested object preservation, CPU host-model preservation, and SPICE listen preservation.
Maintenance
  • Update google.golang.org/grpc from 1.75.1 to 1.79.3.
  • Refactor codegen overrides to use named field policies.

v0.9.5

Compare Source

Highlights

  • Expanded libvirt XML code generation coverage by handling anonymous embedded fields and hypervisor namespace fields that derive their XML names from child XMLName metadata.
  • Added domain schema coverage and curated descriptions for hypervisor-specific namespace fields including QEMU, Xen, bhyve, LXC, and VMware extensions.
  • Made VLAN tag IDs configurable.

What's Changed

Schema and code generation
  • Process anonymous embedded libvirt XML fields in the code generator, improving coverage for embedded state-style structs such as Hyper-V feature fields.
  • Apply Terraform field policies after reflection, keeping reflection logic focused on libvirt structure analysis and policy logic focused on Terraform semantics.
  • Support hypervisor namespace fields discovered via child XMLName metadata, exposing:
    • qemu_commandline
    • qemu_capabilities
    • qemu_override
    • qemu_deprecation
    • lxc_namespace
    • bhyve_commandline
    • vmware_data_center_path
    • xen_commandline
  • Add parser, generated, and provider schema tests covering the new codegen behavior.
Domain and network improvements
  • Make VLAN tag IDs configurable, fixing the read-only vlan-id handling reported in issue #​1236.
Documentation
  • Add curated descriptions for the new hypervisor namespace fields, using official libvirt references where available and conservative text for fields that are not publicly documented on libvirt.org.

Included changes

  • docs: add hypervisor namespace field descriptions
  • fix: support hypervisor XMLName fields in codegen
  • refactor: apply codegen field policies after reflection
  • test: cover anonymous embedded XML fields
  • fix: Process anonymous fields in libvirt XML (#​1222 by @​atopuzov)
  • fix: make vlan tag ids configurable (fixes #​1236)

v0.9.4

Compare Source

New Features (Experimental)
  • Domain graceful shutdown on destroy — new destroy.shutdown.timeout option on libvirt_domain sends an ACPI shutdown signal and waits for the guest to power off cleanly before destroying it, instead of force-killing. Subject to change in future releases.
  • Pool lifecycle operation controls — new create and destroy blocks on libvirt_pool give explicit control over build, start, autostart, and backing storage deletion behavior during pool create/destroy. Subject to change in future releases.
Bug Fixes
  • NVRAM/TPM files deleted on domain update — updating a domain (e.g. changing memory) would undefine and re-define it, deleting NVRAM and TPM state files in the process. The provider now passes KEEP_NVRAM and KEEP_TPM undefine flags during updates. (#​1232, @​atopuzov)
  • capacity_unit not preserved on volume readback — specifying capacity_unit = "GiB" on a volume would cause "Provider produced inconsistent result after apply" on every apply, because libvirt normalizes to bytes in XML. The codegen now preserves the user's unit when the value was explicitly set. (#​1253)
  • Dir pool backing path deleted on destroy — terraform destroy of a dir pool was calling StoragePoolDelete which removed the backing directory. The default behavior now preserves the directory (matching virsh pool-destroy + pool-undefine), with an explicit destroy.delete = true override available. (#​1285)
Dependencies
  • Bumped github.com/cloudflare/circl from 1.6.1 to 1.6.3. (#​1284)

  • Misc documentation fixes #​1209, #​1210

Features

Support for full libvirt API (XML) (#​1208 )

The provider now supports the whole libvirt API 🥳 (* that is supported by libvirtxml), thanks to a code generation engine which generates the whole terraform glue for the schemas and conversions.

For now, the usual resources (domain, network, volume, pool) are included, but this opens the door to handle other resources (secrets, etc) with little effort.

Migration Guide: 0.9.0 → v0.9.1

⚠️ as the schema is now generated, the documentation is now injected into the code generation. As there is no machine readable documentation for libvirt XML, we generated a set of documentation metadata using AI. This process can be improved over time.

Due to the introduction of the generator and some bugs in the 0.9.0 schema, we had to do some changes in the schema.

This document explains how to move Terraform configurations from provider v0.9.0 (the last manual schema) to the current HEAD that uses the libvirt-schema code generator. It only covers resources and attributes that existed in 0.9.0: domains, networks, storage pools, and storage volumes. Anything new that HEAD exposes can simply be added following the generated schema documentation.

What Changed Globally

  1. Attr names now mirror libvirt XML – the generator emits snake_case names derived from the XML schema (e.g., accessmode → access_mode, portgroup → port_group). Set exactly the fields you care about; anything left null stays absent in the XML.
  2. Value/unit pairs are explicit – whenever libvirt exposes a value with a unit attribute the provider now has two attributes (memory + memory_unit, capacity + capacity_unit, etc.). Leaving the unit unset lets libvirt use its default.
  3. Presence/"yes"/"no" semantics follow libvirt – booleans that previously toggled simple structs may now expect yes/no strings when libvirt models them as attributes (e.g. os.loader_readonly). True presence booleans (like features.acpi) still use Terraform bools.
  4. Nested objects match the XML tree exactly – device sources, interfaces, backing stores, etc. now use the full nested structure. Plan to touch every place where v0.9 flattened things like source.pool or filesystem.source.
  5. Metadata is structured – string blobs became { metadata = { xml = <<EOF ... } } so we can extend later without breaking state.

Domain Resource

Top-level attribute mapping
v0.9 attribute HEAD attribute(s) Notes
unit memory_unit Same semantics, renamed so every value/unit pair is consistent.
max_memory maximum_memory Value only; use maximum_memory_unit if you previously used a non-default unit.
max_memory_slots maximum_memory_slots Same semantics.
current_memory current_memory + optional current_memory_unit Value stays the same; set the unit explicitly if you relied on non-default units.
metadata (string) metadata = { xml = <<EOF ... EOF } Wrap your XML in the nested object.
os.arch os.type_arch The type_* prefix mirrors <os><type arch="..."/>.
os.machine os.type_machine Same rationale as above.
os.kernel_args os.cmdline Field name matches the XML <cmdline> element.
os.loader_path os.loader 0.9 kept the loader path in a separate attribute; now it is the element’s value (see “value + attributes” below).
os.loader_readonly (bool) os.loader_readonly (string) Accepts "yes"/"no" because the XML attribute is a string.
os.nvram.* os.nv_ram = { file, template, format = { type = ... } } Rename plus richer structure.
devices.filesystems[*].accessmode access_mode All camelCase names were converted to snake_case.
devices.filesystems[*].readonly read_only Same semantics.
devices.interfaces[*].source.portgroup source = { network = { port_group = ... } } See below for the full source mapping.
devices.rngs[*].device backend = { random = "/dev/urandom" } or backend = { egd = { ... } } Backends are now modeled exactly like the XML.
OS block specifics
  • os.boot_devices is still a list, but if you previously stored strings you now provide objects: boot_devices = [{ dev = "hd" }, { dev = "network" }].
  • Loader/read-only/secure/stateless flags now accept the literal XML strings ("yes"/"no"). Wrap them in tostring() if you had boolean locals.
  • NVRAM becomes os = { nv_ram = { file = "/var/lib/libvirt/nvram.bin", template = "/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_VARS.fd", format = { type = "raw" } } }.
Loader value + attributes

<loader> is a “value + attributes” element. The path is the value (os.loader), and every XML attribute becomes a sibling attribute:

os = {
  loader          = "/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd"
  loader_type     = "pflash"
  loader_readonly = "yes"
  loader_secure   = "no"
  loader_format   = "raw"
}

Leave the attribute unset to let libvirt pick its default (the provider preserves user intent for optional attributes).

Disks and filesystems

0.9 flattened every disk source. HEAD requires you to pick the XML variant explicitly:


# v0.9
source = {
  pool   = libvirt_pool.test.name
  volume = libvirt_volume.test.name
}

# HEAD
source = {
  volume = {
    pool   = libvirt_pool.test.name
    volume = libvirt_volume.test.name
  }
}

# File-based disk (previously source.file)
source = { file = "/var/lib/libvirt/images/disk.qcow2" }

# Block device

# Block device
source = { block = "/dev/sdb" }

Filesystems follow the same pattern. Replace the old flat fields with nested objects:


# v0.9
filesystems = [{
  source     = "/exports/share"
  target     = "shared"
  accessmode = "mapped"
  readonly   = true
}]

# HEAD
filesystems = [{
  source = { mount = { dir = "/exports/share" } }
  target = { dir = "shared" }
  access_mode = "mapped"
  read_only   = true
}]
Variant notation

Every <source> element with mutually exclusive children (files, volumes, blocks, etc.) becomes an object whose attributes map 1:1 to the libvirt XML children. Only set the branch you need:


# Filesystem backed by a block device
source = { block = { dev = "/dev/vdb" } }

# RAM-backed filesystem with extra attributes
source = { ram = { usage = 1024, unit = "MiB" } }

Even if a variant has additional attributes in XML, the generated struct exposes them in that nested object (e.g., ram = { usage = 1024, unit = "MiB" }). This pattern is consistent across disks, filesystems, host devices, etc.

Interfaces

source.network, source.bridge, and source.dev are now mutually exclusive nested objects. Example conversions:


# Network-backed NIC (v0.9)
source = { network = "default" }

# HEAD
source = { network = { network = "default" } }

# Direct/Macvtap NIC (v0.9)
source = { dev = "eth0", mode = "bridge" }

# HEAD
source = { direct = { dev = "eth0", mode = "bridge" } }

portgroup became port_group, wait_for_ip stays the same helper object.

RNG / TPM / other devices
  • RNG devices now mirror <backend>. Use backend = { random = "/dev/urandom" } for /dev/random or backend = { egd = { source = { mode = "connect", host = "unix", service = "..." } } } for EGD sockets.
  • TPM backends are nested (backend = { emulator = { path = "/var/lib/swtpm/sock" } }). Map your previous backend_type to one of the backend objects: emulator, passthrough, or external.
  • Graphics, consoles, serials, and video devices already used nested objects in 0.9; the only change is snake_case attribute names (auto_port, websocket, etc.).
Metadata

0.9 stored raw XML as a string. Now wrap it:

metadata = {
  xml = <<EOFXML
<libosinfo:libosinfo xmlns:libosinfo="http://libosinfo.org/xmlns/libvirt/domain/1.0">
  <libosinfo:os id="http://libosinfo.org/linux/2024" />
</libosinfo:libosinfo>
EOFXML
}

Storage Volume Resource

Key differences:

v0.9 attribute HEAD attribute(s) Notes
format (string) target = { format = { type = "qcow2" } } The format lives under the target block now.
permissions.* target.permissions.* Same keys, just explicitly under target.
backing_store.format backing_store = { format = { type = "qcow2" } } Mirrors libvirt <format> element.
capacity capacity + optional capacity_unit Leave capacity_unit unset to keep KiB.
allocation allocation + allocation_unit (read-only) Useful when libvirt reports GiB/MiB units.
path (computed) still path, but it mirrors target.path You no longer set this manually. Use pool target paths to control locations.

Everything else (name, pool, create/content) behaves exactly like 0.9. Plan/apply will touch terraform state automatically once you update the config.

Storage Pool Resource

The generated schema simply fills in additional optional sub-objects (source.host, source.auth, features, etc.). All attributes that existed in 0.9 keep their names and shapes:

  • target = { path = "/var/lib/libvirt/pools" } works unchanged.
  • target.permissions.* still take strings, not integers.
  • source.device = [{ path = "/dev/sdb" }] keeps the same structure.

Unless you opt into the new nested fields you do not need to change existing pool configurations.

Network Resource

v0.9 attribute HEAD attribute(s) Notes
mode forward = { mode = "nat" } The forwarding mode now lives under the <forward> element.
bridge (string) bridge = { name = "virbr0" } Bridge attributes are grouped together so libvirt can add more knobs.
autostart still autostart Works the same.
ips still ips, but nested attr names now snake_case (local_ptr, dhcp.hosts, etc.) Structures are the same; you may only need to rename portgroup → port_group inside DHCP hosts.

Example conversion:


# v0.9
mode   = "nat"
bridge = "virbr1"

# HEAD
forward = { mode = "nat" }
bridge  = { name = "virbr1" }

DHCP ranges/hosts did not change other than automatic snake_case normalisation.

⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ This version of the provider breaks compatibility ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️

Background

When this provider was developed, the idea was to mimic a cloud experience on top of libvirt. Because of this, the schema was done as flat as possible, features were abstracted and some features like disks from remote sources were added as convenience.

The initial users of the provider were usually makers of infrastructure software who needed complex network setups. Lot of code was contributed which added complexity outside of its initial design.

So for long time I wanted to restart the provider under a new design principles where:

  • HCL maps almost 1:1 to libvirt XML and therefore almost any libvirt feature can be supported
  • Most of the validation work is left to libvirt which is already doing it
  • No abstractions or extra features, and when they do, they should be designed in a way that are quite independent
  • More consistency, for example, most libvirt APIs can be mostly separated in lifecycle (create, destroy) which map quite well to terraform resources, and then some query APIs, which map well to data sources. This was not the case how we implemented for example querying the IP addresses
  • No unnecessary defensive code, for example, checking that a volume exist when referenced, is a problem that terraform solves if the ID is interpolated and libvirt solves with its own checks, if the volume is referenced by a hardcoded strings.

I knew 1.0 would never come in the current form.

The new provider

The new provider is based on the new plugin framework. This gives us some room for better diagnostics and better plans.

It makes definitions more verbose, but it also means we can implement any libvirt feature. Defaults work as long as they are defaults in libvirt.

Migration plan

You can find the legacy provider in the v0.8 branch. New releases can be done of 0.8.x versions to add bugfixes, so people who rely on it have a path forward. I'd likely not maintain much of 0.8.x, but I guess many people will help here, as they do today with different PRs.

There is no automated way of migrating the HCL of previous providers, but given that it is documented how the new schema is defined, which was not the case with the previous schema, it should be much easier to drive LLMs to perform a conversion.

You should check the documentation and README, which will give you an idea of the main differences and equivalences, but here is an example of the new schema to get an idea:

Added `terraform import` support for `libvirt_domain` using an existing domain UUID. - Added configurable shutdown timeout handling for domain updates that need to stop a running guest before redefine. - Improved readback preservation for optional nested objects to reduce unintended diffs. #### What's Changed ##### Domain lifecycle and import - Add `terraform import` support for `libvirt_domain` by UUID, allowing Terraform state to be populated from an existing libvirt domain definition. - Add configurable update shutdown behavior so domain updates can request guest shutdown and wait with a configurable timeout before forcing a stop. - Add lifecycle tests covering the new shutdown timeout behavior during updates. ##### Readback and state preservation - Preserve optional nested objects on readback so unset nested state is not synthesized from libvirt defaults when the user did not configure it. - Move readback preservation behavior into code generation policy, making the preservation rules more consistent across generated conversions. - Add tests covering nested object preservation, CPU host-model preservation, and SPICE listen preservation. ##### Maintenance - Update `google.golang.org/grpc` from `1.75.1` to `1.79.3`. - Refactor codegen overrides to use named field policies. #### Contributors -

Expanded libvirt XML code generation coverage by handling anonymous embedded fields and hypervisor namespace fields that derive their XML names from child `XMLName` metadata. - Added domain schema coverage and curated descriptions for hypervisor-specific namespace fields including QEMU, Xen, bhyve, LXC, and VMware extensions. - Made VLAN tag IDs configurable. #### What's Changed ##### Schema and code generation - Process anonymous embedded libvirt XML fields in the code generator, improving coverage for embedded state-style structs such as Hyper-V feature fields. - Apply Terraform field policies after reflection, keeping reflection logic focused on libvirt structure analysis and policy logic focused on Terraform semantics. - Support hypervisor namespace fields discovered via child `XMLName` metadata, exposing: - `qemu_commandline` - `qemu_capabilities` - `qemu_override` - `qemu_deprecation` - `lxc_namespace` - `bhyve_commandline` - `vmware_data_center_path` - `xen_commandline` - Add parser, generated, and provider schema tests covering the new codegen behavior. ##### Domain and network improvements - Make VLAN tag IDs configurable, fixing the read-only `vlan-id` handling reported in issue [#&#8203;1236](https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt/issues/1236). ##### Documentation - Add curated descriptions for the new hypervisor namespace fields, using official libvirt references where available and conservative text for fields that are not publicly documented on libvirt.org. #### Included changes -

**Domain graceful shutdown on destroy** — new `destroy.shutdown.timeout` option on `libvirt_domain` sends an ACPI shutdown signal and waits for the guest to power off cleanly before destroying it, instead of force-killing. Subject to change in future releases. - **Pool lifecycle operation controls** — new `create` and `destroy` blocks on `libvirt_pool` give explicit control over build, start, autostart, and backing storage deletion behavior during pool create/destroy. Subject to change in future releases. ##### Bug Fixes - **NVRAM/TPM files deleted on domain update** — updating a domain (e.g. changing memory) would undefine and re-define it, deleting NVRAM and TPM state files in the process. The provider now passes `KEEP_NVRAM` and `KEEP_TPM` undefine flags during updates. ([#&#8203;1232](https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt/issues/1232), [@&#8203;atopuzov](https://github.com/atopuzov)) - **`capacity_unit` not preserved on volume readback** — specifying `capacity_unit = "GiB"` on a volume would cause "Provider produced inconsistent result after apply" on every apply, because libvirt normalizes to bytes in XML. The codegen now preserves the user's unit when the value was explicitly set. ([#&#8203;1253](https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt/issues/1253)) - **Dir pool backing path deleted on destroy** — `terraform destroy` of a `dir` pool was calling `StoragePoolDelete` which removed the backing directory. The default behavior now preserves the directory (matching `virsh pool-destroy` + `pool-undefine`), with an explicit `destroy.delete = true` override available.

For now, the usual resources (domain, network, volume, pool) are included, but this opens the door to handle other resources (secrets, etc) with little effort. ### Migration Guide: 0.9.0 → v0.9.1 :warning: as the schema is now generated, the documentation is now injected into the code generation. As there is no machine readable documentation for libvirt XML, we generated a set of documentation metadata using AI. This process can be improved over time. Due to the introduction of the generator and some bugs in the 0.9.0 schema, we had to do some changes in the schema. This document explains how to move Terraform configurations from provider **v0.9.0** (the last manual schema) to the current HEAD that uses the libvirt-schema code generator. It only covers resources and attributes that existed in 0.9.0: domains, networks, storage pools, and storage volumes. Anything new that HEAD exposes can simply be added following the generated schema documentation. #### What Changed Globally 1. **Attr names now mirror libvirt XML** – the generator emits snake\_case names derived from the XML schema (e.g., `accessmode` → `access_mode`, `portgroup` → `port_group`). Set exactly the fields you care about; anything left null stays absent in the XML. 2. **Value/unit pairs are explicit** – whenever libvirt exposes a value with a unit attribute the provider now has two attributes (`memory` + `memory_unit`, `capacity` + `capacity_unit`, etc.). Leaving the unit unset lets libvirt use its default. 3. **Presence/"yes"/"no" semantics follow libvirt** – booleans that previously toggled simple structs may now expect `yes`/`no` strings when libvirt models them as attributes (e.g. `os.loader_readonly`). True presence booleans (like `features.acpi`) still use Terraform bools. 4. **Nested objects match the XML tree exactly** – device sources, interfaces, backing stores, etc. now use the full nested structure. Plan to touch every place where v0.9 flattened things like `source.pool` or `filesystem.source`. 5. **Metadata is structured** – string blobs became `{ metadata = { xml = <<EOF ... } }` so we can extend later without breaking state. #### Domain Resource ##### Top-level attribute mapping | v0.9 attribute | HEAD attribute(s) | Notes | | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `unit` | `memory_unit` | Same semantics, renamed so every value/unit pair is consistent. | | `max_memory` | `maximum_memory` | Value only; use `maximum_memory_unit` if you previously used a non-default unit. | | `max_memory_slots` | `maximum_memory_slots` | Same semantics. | | `current_memory` | `current_memory` + optional `current_memory_unit` | Value stays the same; set the unit explicitly if you relied on non-default units. | | `metadata` (string) | `metadata = { xml = <<EOF ... EOF }` | Wrap your XML in the nested object. | | `os.arch` | `os.type_arch` | The `type_*` prefix mirrors `<os><type arch="..."/>`. | | `os.machine` | `os.type_machine` | Same rationale as above. | | `os.kernel_args` | `os.cmdline` | Field name matches the XML `<cmdline>` element. | | `os.loader_path` | `os.loader` | 0.9 kept the loader path in a separate attribute; now it is the element’s value (see “value + attributes” below). | | `os.loader_readonly` (bool) | `os.loader_readonly` (string) | Accepts `"yes"`/`"no"` because the XML attribute is a string. | | `os.nvram.*` | `os.nv_ram = { file, template, format = { type = ... } }` | Rename plus richer structure. | | `devices.filesystems[*].accessmode` | `access_mode` | All camelCase names were converted to snake\_case. | | `devices.filesystems[*].readonly` | `read_only` | Same semantics. | | `devices.interfaces[*].source.portgroup` | `source = { network = { port_group = ... } }` | See below for the full source mapping. | | `devices.rngs[*].device` | `backend = { random = "/dev/urandom" }` or `backend = { egd = { ... } }` | Backends are now modeled exactly like the XML. | ##### OS block specifics - `os.boot_devices` is still a list, but if you previously stored strings you now provide objects: `boot_devices = [{ dev = "hd" }, { dev = "network" }]`. - Loader/read-only/secure/stateless flags now accept the literal XML strings (`"yes"`/`"no"`). Wrap them in `tostring()` if you had boolean locals. - NVRAM becomes `os = { nv_ram = { file = "/var/lib/libvirt/nvram.bin", template = "/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_VARS.fd", format = { type = "raw" } } }`. ##### Loader value + attributes `<loader>` is a “value + attributes” element. The path is the value (`os.loader`), and every XML attribute becomes a sibling attribute: ```hcl os = { loader = "/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd" loader_type = "pflash" loader_readonly = "yes" loader_secure = "no" loader_format = "raw" } ``` Leave the attribute unset to let libvirt pick its default (the provider preserves user intent for optional attributes). ##### Disks and filesystems 0.9 flattened every disk source. HEAD requires you to pick the XML variant explicitly: ```hcl # v0.9 source = { pool = libvirt_pool.test.name volume = libvirt_volume.test.name } # HEAD source = { volume = { pool = libvirt_pool.test.name volume = libvirt_volume.test.name } } # File-based disk (previously source.file) source = { file = "/var/lib/libvirt/images/disk.qcow2" } # Block device # Block device source = { block = "/dev/sdb" } ``` Filesystems follow the same pattern. Replace the old flat fields with nested objects: ```hcl # v0.9 filesystems = [{ source = "/exports/share" target = "shared" accessmode = "mapped" readonly = true }] # HEAD filesystems = [{ source = { mount = { dir = "/exports/share" } } target = { dir = "shared" } access_mode = "mapped" read_only = true }] ``` ##### Variant notation Every `<source>` element with mutually exclusive children (files, volumes, blocks, etc.) becomes an object whose attributes map 1:1 to the libvirt XML children. Only set the branch you need: ```hcl # Filesystem backed by a block device source = { block = { dev = "/dev/vdb" } } # RAM-backed filesystem with extra attributes source = { ram = { usage = 1024, unit = "MiB" } } ``` Even if a variant has additional attributes in XML, the generated struct exposes them in that nested object (e.g., `ram = { usage = 1024, unit = "MiB" }`). This pattern is consistent across disks, filesystems, host devices, etc. ##### Interfaces `source.network`, `source.bridge`, and `source.dev` are now mutually exclusive nested objects. Example conversions: ```hcl # Network-backed NIC (v0.9) source = { network = "default" } # HEAD source = { network = { network = "default" } } # Direct/Macvtap NIC (v0.9) source = { dev = "eth0", mode = "bridge" } # HEAD source = { direct = { dev = "eth0", mode = "bridge" } } ``` `portgroup` became `port_group`, `wait_for_ip` stays the same helper object. ##### RNG / TPM / other devices - RNG devices now mirror `<backend>`. Use `backend = { random = "/dev/urandom" }` for /dev/random or `backend = { egd = { source = { mode = "connect", host = "unix", service = "..." } } }` for EGD sockets. - TPM backends are nested (`backend = { emulator = { path = "/var/lib/swtpm/sock" } }`). Map your previous `backend_type` to one of the backend objects: `emulator`, `passthrough`, or `external`. - Graphics, consoles, serials, and video devices already used nested objects in 0.9; the only change is snake\_case attribute names (`auto_port`, `websocket`, etc.). ##### Metadata 0.9 stored raw XML as a string. Now wrap it: ```hcl metadata = { xml = <<EOFXML <libosinfo:libosinfo xmlns:libosinfo="http://libosinfo.org/xmlns/libvirt/domain/1.0"> <libosinfo:os id="http://libosinfo.org/linux/2024" /> </libosinfo:libosinfo> EOFXML } ``` #### Storage Volume Resource Key differences: | v0.9 attribute | HEAD attribute(s) | Notes | | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `format` (string) | `target = { format = { type = "qcow2" } }` | The format lives under the target block now. | | `permissions.*` | `target.permissions.*` | Same keys, just explicitly under `target`. | | `backing_store.format` | `backing_store = { format = { type = "qcow2" } }` | Mirrors libvirt `<format>` element. | | `capacity` | `capacity` + optional `capacity_unit` | Leave `capacity_unit` unset to keep KiB. | | `allocation` | `allocation` + `allocation_unit` (read-only) | Useful when libvirt reports GiB/MiB units. | | `path` (computed) | still `path`, but it mirrors `target.path` | You no longer set this manually. Use pool target paths to control locations. | Everything else (name, pool, create/content) behaves exactly like 0.9. Plan/apply will touch `terraform state` automatically once you update the config. #### Storage Pool Resource The generated schema simply fills in additional optional sub-objects (`source.host`, `source.auth`, `features`, etc.). All attributes that existed in 0.9 keep their names and shapes: - `target = { path = "/var/lib/libvirt/pools" }` works unchanged. - `target.permissions.*` still take strings, not integers. - `source.device = [{ path = "/dev/sdb" }]` keeps the same structure. Unless you opt into the new nested fields you do not need to change existing pool configurations. #### Network Resource | v0.9 attribute | HEAD attribute(s) | Notes | | ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `mode` | `forward = { mode = "nat" }` | The forwarding mode now lives under the `<forward>` element. | | `bridge` (string) | `bridge = { name = "virbr0" }` | Bridge attributes are grouped together so libvirt can add more knobs. | | `autostart` | still `autostart` | Works the same. | | `ips` | still `ips`, but nested attr names now snake\_case (`local_ptr`, `dhcp.hosts`, etc.) | Structures are the same; you may only need to rename `portgroup` → `port_group` inside DHCP hosts. | Example conversion: ```hcl # v0.9 mode = "nat" bridge = "virbr1" # HEAD forward = { mode = "nat" } bridge = { name = "virbr1" } ``` DHCP ranges/hosts did not change other than automatic snake\_case normalisation. ### Contributors - [@&#8203;cyril-s](https://github.com/cyril-s) - [@&#8203;cod3mas0n](https://github.com/cod3mas0n) - [@&#8203;hellsingley](https://github.com/hellsingley) ### [`v0.9.0`](https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt/releases/tag/v0.9.0) [Compare Source](https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt/compare/v0.8.3...v0.9.0) :warning: :warning: :warning: :warning: **This version of the provider breaks compatibility** :warning: :warning: :warning: :warning: ##### Background When this provider was developed, the idea was to mimic a cloud experience on top of libvirt. Because of this, the schema was done as flat as possible, features were abstracted and some features like disks from remote sources were added as convenience. The initial users of the provider were usually makers of infrastructure software who needed complex network setups. Lot of code was contributed which added complexity outside of its initial design. So for long time I wanted to restart the provider under a new design principles where: - HCL maps almost 1:1 to libvirt XML and therefore almost any libvirt feature can be supported - Most of the validation work is left to libvirt which is already doing it - No abstractions or extra features, and when they do, they should be designed in a way that are quite independent - More consistency, for example, most libvirt APIs can be mostly separated in lifecycle (create, destroy) which map quite well to terraform resources, and then some query APIs, which map well to data sources. This was not the case how we implemented for example querying the IP addresses - No unnecessary defensive code, for example, checking that a volume exist when referenced, is a problem that terraform solves if the ID is interpolated and libvirt solves with its own checks, if the volume is referenced by a hardcoded strings. I knew 1.0 would never come in the current form. ##### The new provider The new provider is based on the new plugin framework. This gives us some room for better diagnostics and better plans. It makes definitions more verbose, but it also means we can implement any libvirt feature. Defaults work as long as they are defaults in libvirt. ##### Migration plan You can find the legacy provider in the v0.8 branch. New releases can be done of 0.8.x versions to add bugfixes, so people who rely on it have a path forward. I'd likely not maintain much of 0.8.x, but I guess many people will help here, as they do today with different PRs. There is no automated way of migrating the HCL of previous providers, but given that it is documented how the new schema is defined, which was not the case with the previous schema, it should be much easier to drive LLMs to perform a conversion. You should check the documentation and README, which will give you an idea of the main differences and equivalences, but here is an example of the new schema to get an idea: ```hcl terraform { required_providers { libvirt = { source = "dmacvicar/libvirt" } } } provider "libvirt" { uri = "qemu:///system" } # Base Alpine Linux cloud image stored in the default pool. resource "libvirt_volume" "alpine_base" { name = "alpine-3.22-base.qcow2" pool = "default" format = "qcow2" create = { content = { url = "https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.22/releases/cloud/generic_alpine-3.22.2-x86_64-bios-cloudinit-r0.qcow2" } } } # Writable copy-on-write layer for the VM. resource "libvirt_volume" "alpine_disk" { name = "alpine-vm.qcow2" pool = "default" format = "qcow2" capacity = 2147483648 backing_store = { path = libvirt_volume.alpine_base.path format = "qcow2" } } # Cloud-init seed ISO. resource "libvirt_cloudinit_disk" "alpine_seed" { name = "alpine-cloudinit" user_data = <<-EOF #cloud-config chpasswd: list: | root:password expire: false ssh_pwauth: true packages: - openssh-server timezone: UTC EOF meta_data = <<-EOF instance-id: alpine-001 local-hostname: alpine-vm EOF network_config = <<-EOF version: 2 ethernets: eth0: dhcp4: true EOF } # Upload the cloud-init ISO into the pool. resource "libvirt_volume" "alpine_seed_volume" { name = "alpine-cloudinit.iso" pool = "default" create = { content = { url = libvirt_cloudinit_disk.alpine_seed.path } } } # Virtual machine definition. resource "libvirt_domain" "alpine" { name = "alpine-vm" memory = 1048576 vcpu = 1 os = { type = "hvm" arch = "x86_64" machine = "q35" } features = { acpi = true } devices = { disks = [ { source = { pool = libvirt_volume.alpine_disk.pool volume = libvirt_volume.alpine_disk.name } target = { dev = "vda" bus = "virtio" } }, { device = "cdrom" source = { pool = libvirt_volume.alpine_seed_volume.pool volume = libvirt_volume.alpine_seed_volume.name } target = { dev = "sdb" bus = "sata" } } ] interfaces = [ { type = "network" model = "virtio" # e1000 is more compatible than virtio for Alpine source = { network = "default" } # TODO: wait_for_ip not implemented yet (Phase 2) # This will wait during creation until the interface gets an IP wait_for_ip = { timeout = 300 # seconds, default 300 source = "any" # "lease" (DHCP), "agent" (qemu-guest-agent), or "any" (try both) } } ] graphics = { vnc = { autoport = "yes" listen = "127.0.0.1" } } } running = true } # Query the domain's interface addresses # This data source can be used at any time to retrieve current IP addresses # without blocking operations like Delete data "libvirt_domain_interface_addresses" "alpine" { domain = libvirt_domain.alpine.name source = "lease" # optional: "lease" (DHCP), "agent" (qemu-guest-agent), or "any" } # Output all interface information output "vm_interfaces" { description = "All network interfaces with their IP addresses" value = data.libvirt_domain_interface_addresses.alpine.interfaces } # Output the first IP address found output "vm_ip" { description = "First IP address of the VM" value = length(data.libvirt_domain_interface_addresses.alpine.interfaces) > 0 && length(data.libvirt_domain_interface_addresses.alpine.interfaces[0].addrs) > 0 ? data.libvirt_domain_interface_addresses.alpine.interfaces[0].addrs[0].addr : "No IP address found" } # Output all IP addresses across all interfaces output "vm_all_ips" { description = "All IP addresses across all interfaces" value = flatten([ for iface in data.libvirt_domain_interface_addresses.alpine.interfaces : [ for addr in iface.addrs : addr.addr ] ]) } ``` Feedback is appreciated. There will be a long journey for people to port and iron all the issues, but it is clear this is the path to go.
