How to get tags

[oidz1234]

Hello,

I am trying to edit the resource_server.go file to skip server backup if a certain tag is set. This is because if your DD cloud instance does not support backups then terraform fails.

MY questions is is how to I actually read the tags, I have tried many things but the closest I have gotten is:

tags := data.Get(resourceKeyTag) 

This does not seem to work.

Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction ?

Thanks very much :)

Hi,

I had the same issue.I fixed it by adding OS names to "readServerBackupClientDownloadURLs" function.
Tags would work also, but I just wanted it to work, didn't care about rest.See below for my kind of solution for this:

// Capture summary information for server backup.
func readServerBackupClientDownloadURLs(serverID string, data *schema.ResourceData, apiClient *compute.Client) error {
log.Printf("Read backup details for server '%s'.", serverID)

// Skip backup details as backup is not supported in appliances, a.k.a. otherunix.
os := strings.ToUpper(data.Get(resourceKeyServerOSType).(string))

if strings.Contains(os, "OTHER") || strings.Contains(os, "UN") || strings.Contains(os, "WIN") || strings.Contains(os, "LIN") || strings.Contains(os, "CEN") || os == "" {
	log.Printf("Backup is not supported for server '%s'.", serverID)
	data.Set(resourceKeyServerBackupEnabled, false)
	data.Set(resourceKeyServerBackupClientDownloadURLs, nil)
	return nil
}

backupDetails, err := apiClient.GetServerBackupDetails(serverID)

if err != nil {
	return err
}
if backupDetails == nil {
	log.Printf("Backup is not enabled for server '%s'.", serverID)

	data.Set(resourceKeyServerBackupEnabled, false)
	data.Set(resourceKeyServerBackupClientDownloadURLs, nil)

	return nil
}

data.Set(resourceKeyServerBackupEnabled, true)

clientDownloadURLs := make(map[string]interface{})
for _, clientDetail := range backupDetails.Clients {
	clientType := strings.Replace(clientDetail.Type, ".", "_", -1)
	clientDownloadURLs[clientType] = clientDetail.DownloadURL
}
data.Set(resourceKeyServerBackupClientDownloadURLs, clientDownloadURLs)

return nil

}

Thanks, that is actually my current work around as well ! I was more looking for something that was configurable and then could be added to extend the current program.
