During the language/CLI docs reorg, we noticed several pages that were no longer viable; some were redundant, some useless, and some just very obsolete. Since we were trying to avoid breaking links at the time, we opted to remove them from the navs and leave them as "ghost pages" — still accessible, but not findable. This commit finally cleans these ghosts up and updates any remaining links to relevant modern pages. Bustin' makes me feel good. 👻🚫

# manta
|
|
|
|
**Kind: Standard (with locking within Manta)**
|
|
|
|
Stores the state as an artifact in [Manta](https://www.joyent.com/manta).
|
|
|
|
## Example Configuration
|
|
|
|
```hcl
|
|
terraform {
|
|
backend "manta" {
|
|
path = "random/path"
|
|
object_name = "terraform.tfstate"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that for the access credentials we recommend using a
|
|
[partial configuration](/docs/language/settings/backends/configuration.html#partial-configuration).
|
|
|
|
## Data Source Configuration
|
|
|
|
```hcl
|
|
data "terraform_remote_state" "foo" {
|
|
backend = "manta"
|
|
config = {
|
|
path = "random/path"
|
|
object_name = "terraform.tfstate"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration variables
|
|
|
|
The following configuration options are supported:
|
|
|
|
* `account` - (Required) This is the name of the Manta account. It can also be provided via the `SDC_ACCOUNT` or `TRITON_ACCOUNT` environment variables.
|
|
* `user` - (Optional) The username of the Triton account used to authenticate with the Triton API. It can also be provided via the `SDC_USER` or `TRITON_USER` environment variables.
|
|
* `url` - (Optional) The Manta API Endpoint. It can also be provided via the `MANTA_URL` environment variable. Defaults to `https://us-east.manta.joyent.com`.
|
|
* `key_material` - (Optional) This is the private key of an SSH key associated with the Triton account to be used. If this is not set, the private key corresponding to the fingerprint in key_id must be available via an SSH Agent. Can be set via the `SDC_KEY_MATERIAL` or `TRITON_KEY_MATERIAL` environment variables.
|
|
* `key_id` - (Required) This is the fingerprint of the public key matching the key specified in key_path. It can be obtained via the command ssh-keygen -l -E md5 -f /path/to/key. Can be set via the `SDC_KEY_ID` or `TRITON_KEY_ID` environment variables.
|
|
* `insecure_skip_tls_verify` - (Optional) This allows skipping TLS verification of the Triton endpoint. It is useful when connecting to a temporary Triton installation such as Cloud-On-A-Laptop which does not generally use a certificate signed by a trusted root CA. Defaults to `false`.
|
|
* `path` - (Required) The path relative to your private storage directory (`/$MANTA_USER/stor`) where the state file will be stored. **Please Note:** If this path does not exist, then the backend will create this folder location as part of backend creation.
|
|
* `object_name` - (Optional) The name of the state file (defaults to `terraform.tfstate`)
