Installing Terraform / Python / gcloud libraries

1. Navigate to the radlab-launcher folder:

   cd ./rad-lab-main/radlab-launcher

2. Run a script to install the prerequisites:

   python3 installer_prereq.py

   NOTE: Currently the deployment is supported for Python 3.7.3 and above.

   This will install:

   • Terraform binary by downloading a pre-compiled binary or compiling it from source.
   • A Python module which provides a wrapper of Terraform command line tool.
   • Google API Python client library for Google's discovery based APIs.

3. Verify the Terraform installation by running:

   terraform -help

   This should produce instructions on running terraform. If you get a command not found message, there was an error in the installation.
