Ec Provider

Installation

The ec provider is available as a package in all Pulumi languages:

• JavaScript/TypeScript: @pulumi/ec
• Python: pulumi-ec
• Go: github.com/pulumi/pulumi-ec/sdk/go/ec
• .NET: Pulumi.Ec
• Java: com.pulumi/ec

Overview

The Elastic Cloud Pulumi provider can be used to configure and manage Elastic Cloud deployments using the Elastic Cloud APIs. Use the navigation to the left to read about data sources and resources supported by the Elastic Cloud provider. Elastic Cloud APIs are available for:

• Elasticsearch Service (ESS).
• Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE).
• Elasticsearch Service Private (ESSP).

Authentication

The Elastic Cloud Pulumi provider offers two methods of authentication against the remote API: apikey or a combination of username and password. Depending on the environment, you may choose one over the other. The Public API of Elasticsearch Service (ESS) is the default endpoint that the provider will target.

Elasticsearch Service (ESS) only supports apikey. Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE) supports apikey or a combination of username and password.

!> Warning: Hard-coding credentials into a Pulumi configuration is not recommended, and risks secret leakage should this file ever be committed to a public version control system.

API key authentication (recommended)

API keys are the recommended authentication method. They can be used to authenticate against Elasticsearch Service or Elastic Cloud Enterprise.

Generating an Elasticsearch Service (ESS) API Key

To generate an API key, follow these steps:

1. Open you browser and navigate to https://cloud.elastic.co/login.
2. Log in with your email and password.
3. Click on Elasticsearch Service.
4. Navigate to Features > API Keys and click on Generate API Key.
5. Choose a name for your API key.
6. Save your API key somewhere.

Using your API Key on the Elastic Cloud pulumi provider

After you’ve generated your API Key, you can make it available to the Pulumi provider by exporting it as the environment variable EC_API_KEY (recommended), or hardcoded in the provider .tf configuration file (supported but not recommended).

$ export EC_API_KEY="<apikey value>"

Or set the apikey field in the “ec” provider to the value of your generated API key.

# Pulumi.yaml provider configuration file
name: configuration-example
runtime: nodejs
config:
    ec:apikey:
        value: <apikey value>

# Pulumi.yaml provider configuration file
name: configuration-example

config:
    ec:apikey:
        value: <apikey value>

        value: <apikey value>

# Pulumi.yaml provider configuration file

runtime: java
config:
    ec:apikey:
        value: <apikey value>

Username and password login (ECE)

If you are targeting an ECE environment, you can also use a combination of username and password as authentication method.

They can either be hardcoded in the provider .tf configuration (not recommended), or specified with the following environment variables: EC_USERNAME or EC_USER and EC_PASSWORD or EC_PASS.

name: configuration-example
runtime: nodejs
config:
    ec:endpoint:
        value: https://my.ece-environment.corp
    ec:insecure:
        value: true
    ec:password:
        value: my-password
    ec:username:
        value: my-username
