terrastate

terrastate is a simplified remote state daemon for HashiCorp Terraform. This daemon implements a remote state storage engine, and a locking function.

To run the system you must select an authentication backend, specify by the TS_AUTH environment variable. Two backends are included by default. A local backend file looks in a file for usernames and passwords in plaintext seperated by a comma, one per line:

user1:pass1
user2:pass2

The second backend uses a remote NetAuth server to provide authentication services. The NetAuth backend is more advanced, and will match users to namespaces according to the rule of terrastate-<namespace>. In order to be allowed to write to the namespace the user much posses the correct groups.
