Alicloud (Alibaba Cloud) terraform provider

This is the official repository for the Alicloud terraform provider. Currently it supports terraform version ≥ v0.8.2.

If you are not planning to contribute to this repo, you can download the compiled binaries from https://github.com/alibaba/terraform-provider/releases and move the banaries (bin/terraform-provider-alicloud) into the folder under the Terraform PATH such as /usr/local/terraform.

Alternatively, the provider can be installed as described in the developer notes.
This way you will be able to sync the repo as active development is going on.

Example

Example modules can be found in the terraform/examples directory.
