Add docs about local provider to CONTRIBUTING (#2085)
* Add docs about local provider to CONTRIBUTING

Add docs about using a local provider with Terraform to CONTRIBUTING.md.

I couldn't find any prescriptive docs for this, so let's make them. Let me know if a different method is preferred (such as `.terraformrc`), this seemed like the best way from my brief search.

Upstreamed https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-website/pull/474 as well to help improve the central Terraform docs on this subject.

Terraform Provider for Google Cloud Platform

Maintainers

This provider plugin is maintained by:

Requirements

Building The Provider

Clone repository to: $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-google

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers; cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers
$ git clone git@github.com:terraform-providers/terraform-provider-google

Enter the provider directory and build the provider

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-google
$ make build

Using the provider

See the Google Provider documentation to get started using the Google provider.

Upgrading the provider

To upgrade to the latest stable version of the Google provider run terraform init -upgrade. See the Terraform website for more information.

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (version 1.11+ is required). You'll also need to correctly setup a GOPATH, as well as adding $GOPATH/bin to your $PATH.

To compile the provider, run make build. This will build the provider and put the provider binary in the $GOPATH/bin directory.

$ make build
...
$ $GOPATH/bin/terraform-provider-google
...
