Examples

Create a VM

terraformvspherevm --name terrascript-test --datacenter "DC" --datastore "MyDatastore" \
--pool "ressource_pool" --template "rhel-7.5-vmw6.0" --guestid "rhel7_64Guest" --nic DvP_Nmae \
--ip 10.0.123.123 --cidr 24 --gateway 10.0.123.1 --cpu 1 --ram 1024 --disk 10 --dns 10.0.123.50 \
--dns 10.0.123.100 --esxhost esxhost.domain.com --esxuser "esxusername" --folder "terraformed" \
--domain my.domaon --timezone "Etc/UTC" --esxpassvar ESXPASS --action create

Destroy a VM

terraformvspherevm --name terrascript-test --datacenter "DC" --datastore "MyDatastore" \
--pool "ressource_pool" --template "rhel-7.5-vmw6.0" --guestid "rhel7_64Guest" --cpu 1 \
--ram 1024 --esxhost esxhost.domain.com --esxuser "esxusername" --folder "terraformed" \
--esxpassvar ESXPASS --action destroy

In Python Code

from  terraformvspherevm import TerraformVM

vmProperties = {'name': 'myVM', ...}

tvm = TerraformVM()
tvm.addVirtualMachine(vmProperties)
tvm.createVM('myVM')
tvm.destroyVM('myVM')
