private_key_path     = "<pem_private_key_path>"

# Region
region = "<oci_region>"

availablity_domain_name = "<availablity_domain_name>"

# Compartment
compartment_ocid = "<compartment_ocid>"

# MySQL DBSystem Admin Password 
admin_password = "<admin_password>"

# WordPress MySQL Database User Password
wp_password = "<wp_user_password>"

Create the Resources

Run the following commands:

terraform init
terraform plan
terraform apply

Testing your Deployment

After the deployment is finished, you can access WP-Admin by picking wordpress_wp-admin_url output and pasting into web browser window. You can also verify initial content of your blog by using wordpress_public_ip:

wordpress_wp-admin_url = http://193.122.198.19/wp-admin/
wordpress_public_ip = 193.122.198.19

Destroy the Deployment

When you no longer need the deployment, you can run this command to destroy the resources:

terraform destroy
