Debugging the AzureRM Provider with VSCode
As I learn Go, I've been looking to do more with maintaining Terraform providers, and what better provider to start with than the AzureRM provider I use for so many demos? The process is not especially hard, even for a relative newbie like myself. However, I found the documentation from HashiCorp a little difficult to parse.
In this video, I'll go over how to set up debugging in VSCode for the AzureRM provider. We'll cover creating the launch configuration, starting the debugger, and configuring Terraform to send requests to the delve listener.
Shoutout to Drew Mullen and his excellent post on debugging the aws provider with VSCode (https://dev.to/drewmullen/vscode-terr.... The azurerm provider is a little different, but the process is very similar.
