google_compute_instance_from_template
Manages a VM instance resource within GCE. For more information see the official documentation and API.
This resource is specifically to create a compute instance from a given
source_instance_template
. To create an instance without a template, use the
google_compute_instance
resource.
Example Usage
resource "google_compute_instance_template" "tpl" {
name = "template"
machine_type = "n1-standard-1"
disk {
source_image = "debian-cloud/debian-9"
auto_delete = true
disk_size_gb = 100
boot = true
}
network_interface {
network = "default"
}
metadata {
foo = "bar"
}
can_ip_forward = true
}
resource "google_compute_instance_from_template" "tpl" {
name = "instance-from-template"
zone = "us-central1-a"
source_instance_template = "${google_compute_instance_template.tpl.self_link}"
// Override fields from instance template
can_ip_forward = false
labels {
my_key = "my_value"
}
}

from google_compute_instance
are likewise exported here.
