provision resources for Cloud Foundry alongside the BTP provider

[eshirke]

Could someone please provide examples of how to use the Cloud Foundry provider alongside the BTP provider in Terraform? Specifically, I'm looking for examples where:

We create a BTP Subaccount Environment Instance using the BTP provider.
We create spaces, org_users and service keys using the Cloud Foundry provider.

Examples of how to integrate both providers in a Terraform configuration would be greatly appreciated!

In general this is always a two-step approach as the Terraform provider for Cloud Foundry requires the CF API URL endpoint as configuration:

1. Provision the Cloud Foundry environment via the Terraform Provider for SAP BTP
2. Provision the Cloud Foundry specific resources

You have different options how to achieve this:

• Option 1: Define the CF API URL as output of step 1 and transfer the information to step 2 as variable. One example using GitHub Actions to transfer the information is available here: https://github.com/btp-automation-scenarios/terraform-multistep-approval. The relevant code is starting here: https://github.com/btp-automation-scenarios/terraform-multistep-approval/blob/main/.github/workflows/project-provisioning.yml#L72
• Option 2: The configurations are in two different directories (one for SAP BTP, one for Cloud Foundry). Write the output values from the SAP BTP in a terraform.tfvars file in the Cloud Foundry directory. This will automatically be used when executing terraform apply in the CF directory. You find an example here: https://github.com/SAP-samples/btp-terraform-samples/tree/main/released/discovery_center/mission_3488. The relevant code is here: https://github.com/SAP-samples/btp-terraform-samples/blob/main/released/discovery_center/mission_3488/step1/main.tf#L131
• Option 3: This is a advanced option using a open source tool called terramate to orchestrate the execution. A sample setup is available here: https://github.com/btp-automation-scenarios/terramate-orchestrate and a blog post describing the setup is available here: https://dev.to/lechnerc77/experimenting-with-terramate-and-sap-btp-22m1
