[3693.56 --> 3696.74] Is that what you use with Terraform to be able to authenticate?
[3697.60 --> 3698.54] I don't know.
[3698.80 --> 3700.56] Because I believe what we're doing here is...
[3701.42 --> 3705.22] So we're taking things out of the provider config and then setting the environment variable
[3705.22 --> 3705.94] based on that.
[3706.06 --> 3711.86] So when the underlying Terraform plugin is invoked, it will utilize those credentials
[3711.86 --> 3714.36] specified by the environment variables.
[3715.42 --> 3715.68] Yep.
[3716.30 --> 3716.88] Let's see.
[3717.30 --> 3717.78] Linode token.
[3718.34 --> 3718.66] Nice.
[3718.86 --> 3720.44] So I'm guessing that's what we want there.
[3720.88 --> 3721.78] That's what we want, yeah.
[3722.20 --> 3723.42] Where does this key come from?
[3723.50 --> 3723.96] So hang on.
[3724.00 --> 3724.40] Let me see.
[3724.58 --> 3724.98] Key username.
[3725.38 --> 3726.46] Where does this key come from?
[3726.74 --> 3730.12] You just deleted the variable that was key username.
[3730.34 --> 3732.72] But you can name it whatever...
[3732.72 --> 3732.92] Sorry.
[3733.14 --> 3734.38] It was way up at the top.
[3734.38 --> 3735.78] Ah, inv token.
[3735.94 --> 3736.22] I see.
[3736.34 --> 3736.50] Okay.
[3736.88 --> 3737.08] Yep.
[3737.28 --> 3738.00] That sounds good.
[3738.42 --> 3742.90] I also am gonna have to wrap up here pretty soon.
[3743.10 --> 3743.38] Okay.
[3743.70 --> 3744.66] Let's wrap up now.
[3745.16 --> 3745.44] Okay.
[3745.62 --> 3746.76] Yeah, let's wrap up now.
[3746.84 --> 3747.72] I think this was a good point.
[3747.94 --> 3753.02] After the pairing session with Dan, I had a few more with Muvafak Onush, one of the TerraJet
[3753.02 --> 3753.56] creators.
[3754.02 --> 3756.12] And then he joined me to talk about the end result.
[3756.36 --> 3757.78] Yeah, I'm glad to be here.
[3757.94 --> 3762.04] We had a couple of early mornings and I think I had a couple of late nights.
[3762.04 --> 3763.90] So why did we do this?
[3763.90 --> 3769.00] The reason why we did this is because we wanted our Kubernetes clusters to not be provisioned
[3769.00 --> 3770.66] via UI or CLI.
[3770.96 --> 3771.84] So no ClickOps.
[3772.56 --> 3774.28] Dan, that was a great word.
[3774.42 --> 3777.02] No ClickOps, no UI, and not even CLI.
[3777.18 --> 3782.48] We didn't want to have a CLI that we need to like a command to type to provision a Kubernetes
[3782.48 --> 3782.90] cluster.
[3782.90 --> 3789.00] Now, that is not entirely true because obviously we still have to give it a config, but there's
[3789.00 --> 3791.66] something that provisions the cluster for us.
[3792.40 --> 3794.72] And that is Crossplane.
[3794.94 --> 3796.02] But not just Crossplane.
[3796.20 --> 3800.40] There's this secret source element, which I didn't know about until Dan mentioned that,
[3800.50 --> 3801.66] hey, have you seen TerraJet?
[3801.66 --> 3803.68] That was your idea.
[3804.00 --> 3810.22] Well, so you see in Crossplane ecosystem, there are many providers and not all of them have
[3810.22 --> 3813.22] support for all APIs that clouds actually expose.
[3813.76 --> 3813.96] Right.
[3814.14 --> 3815.62] And one of the examples was Linut.
[3815.70 --> 3817.26] We didn't have a provider at all.
[3817.26 --> 3824.52] So the plan with TerraJet was like, you know, the motivation was that let's build something
[3824.52 --> 3829.52] that can utilize the whole like great Terraform community and the great work that they did.
[3830.04 --> 3832.42] So that was how it came to be.
[3833.12 --> 3839.80] Design a code generator and a generic controller that can take any Terraform provider and make
[3839.80 --> 3841.96] up a Crossplane provider out of it.
[3842.30 --> 3842.58] Right.
[3842.90 --> 3845.24] So this is full circle happening.
[3845.24 --> 3850.06] Marcus, if you're listening to this, this is what happened with your Terraform provider.
[3850.42 --> 3853.24] I remember work with Marcus while he was still at Linode.
[3853.74 --> 3859.32] We were using Terraform to provision the instances which were running Docker at the time to host
[3859.32 --> 3861.52] the changelog.com website and the entire setup.
[3861.98 --> 3865.92] Then that was the seed which created the Linode Kubernetes engine.
[3866.44 --> 3869.06] Then Marcus joined Crossplane and Abound.
[3869.06 --> 3876.64] And now using the Terraform Linode provider that Marcus started to provision Kubernetes clusters
[3876.64 --> 3880.00] on Linode using the Terraform provider using Crossplane.
[3880.38 --> 3881.64] Like how crazy is that?
[3882.24 --> 3884.34] It just takes a while just like to wrap your head around.
[3884.48 --> 3891.18] This was like years in the making and we didn't even know it until a few months ago when Dan
[3891.18 --> 3892.00] mentioned TerraJet.
[3892.00 --> 3893.74] I didn't even know that this thing existed.
[3894.28 --> 3902.46] So that's what we're using as a generator for a Linode provider that uses Terraform.
[3902.90 --> 3903.62] So, okay.
[3903.82 --> 3907.98] How many providers have been generated with TerraJet to date?
[3908.14 --> 3909.16] And where can we see them?
[3909.16 --> 3909.68] Yeah.
[3909.68 --> 3916.68] So, today we have the providers for the big three, AWS, Azure, and GCP.
[3917.74 --> 3923.22] And those three providers have 2,000 almost CRDs in total.
[3923.58 --> 3923.70] Right.
[3924.44 --> 3930.38] And then you can see like if you go to Crossplane, Contrip, Org, you will see other like you know
[3930.38 --> 3932.78] providers similar to like JetLinit.
[3932.86 --> 3935.06] For example, we have Equinix, Equinix Metal.
[3935.06 --> 3936.74] We have Exoscale.
[3936.98 --> 3939.90] All of these are like you know completely bootstrapped by the community.
[3940.54 --> 3945.16] So, I would say I think in total like seven or eight right now.
[3945.42 --> 3945.68] Okay.
[3945.86 --> 3946.04] Yeah.
[3946.04 --> 3946.80] There's quite a few.
[3946.98 --> 3948.04] Provider TFX, Equinix.
[3948.12 --> 3948.86] I can see that.
[3949.12 --> 3949.88] Provider Helm.
[3950.12 --> 3950.86] Provider Sevo.
[3951.94 --> 3953.28] What else am I seeing here?
