» archive_file

Generates an archive from content, a file, or directory of files.

» Example Usage

# Archive a single file.

data "archive_file" "init" {


type = "zip"
source_file = "${path.module}/init.tpl"
output_path = "${path.module}/files/init.zip"
}

# Archive multiple files.

data "archive_file" "dotfiles" {


type = "zip"
output_path = "${path.module}/files/dotfiles.zip"

source {
content = "${data.template_file.vimrc.rendered}"
filename = ".vimrc"
}

source {
content = "${data.template_file.ssh_config.rendered}"
filename = ".ssh/config"
}
}
Note regarding symbolic links: Due to a bug, the archive_file data source
does not currently create proper zip archives when the source includes symbolic
links (also known as ”symlinks”). Please see GitHub Issue #6 for more details
and workaround options. This message will be removed when the bug is fixed.
