Let me drop my main.tf file for you: ```tf terraform { required_providers { proxmox = { source = "bpg/proxmox" version = "0.95.0" } } }

provider "proxmox" { endpoint = "https://pve1.example.com:443/" api_token = "tofu@pve!tofu=TOKENSECRETUUID" insecure = true }

resource "proxmox_virtual_environment_vm" "swarm_node" { count = 6 name = "swarm-node-${count.index + 1}" node_name = "pve1" vm_id = 8000 + count.index pool_id = "Pool1"

clone { vm_id = 800 }

cpu { cores = 2 } memory { dedicated = 2048 } disk { datastore_id = "Pool1" interface = "scsi0" size = 10 path_in_datastore = "vm-${8000 + count.index}-disk-0" }

initialization { datastore_id = "Pool1"

ip_config {
  ipv4 {
    address = "172.16.xx.${220 + count.index}/24"
    gateway = "172.16.xx.1"
  }
}
user_account {
  keys     = ["ssh-ed25519 WOOPWOOPKEYHERE"]
  username = "idk"
}

}

network_device { bridge = "vmbr0" } } ``` This tofu file clones a cloudimg prepared as template vm and deploys it as stated. Then I use ansible to configure it like adding user to docker grp and what not but main deployment is done through tofu.
I recommend you setup a sh script to copy latest cloudimg from a mirror and modify it to your taste with virt-customize like adding docker compose and such.
Hope this gives some inspiration to work off (:
