Hosting setup

If you do not have Terraform yet, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.

Before you start, retrieve the static access keys: a secret key and a key ID used for authentication in Object Storage.

1. In the configuration file, describe the parameters of resources that you want to create:

   provider "yandex" {
     token     = "<OAuth>"
     cloud_id  = "<cloud ID>"
     folder_id = "<folder ID>"
     zone      = "ru-central1-a"
   }
   
   resource "yandex_storage_bucket" "test" {
     access_key = "<static key ID>"
     secret_key = "<secret key>"
     bucket = "<bucket name>"
     acl    = "public-read"
   
     website {
       index_document = "index.html"
       error_document = "error.html"
     }
   
   }
   

   Where:

   • access_key: The ID of the static access key.

   • secret_key: The value of the secret access key.

   • bucket: Bucket name.

   • acl: Parameters for ACL.

   • website: Website parameters:

     • index_document: Absolute path to the file of the website's homepage. Required parameter.
     • error_document: Absolute path to the file to be displayed to the user in the event of 4xx errors. Optional.

2. Make sure that the configuration files are correct.

   1. In the command line, go to the directory where you created the configuration file.

   2. Run the check using the command:

      terraform plan
      

   If the configuration is described correctly, the terminal displays a list of created resources and their parameters. If there are errors in the configuration, Terraform points them out.

3. Deploy the cloud resources.

   1. If the configuration doesn't contain any errors, run the command:

   terraform apply
   

   1. Confirm that you want to create the resources.

   Afterwards, all the necessary resources are created in the specified folder. You can check that the resources are there with the correct settings using the management console.
