Create project in Google Cloud

Here is the beginning of everything, before having your vm, sql and etc you have to have the project. Follow the softness.

provider "google" {
  credentials = file("<path_to_service_account_key_json>")
  project     = "<your_organization_id>"
  region      = "us-central1"
}

resource "google_project" "example" {
  name            = "example-project"
  project_id      = "example-project-id"
  org_id          = "<your_organization_id>"
  billing_account = "<your_billing_account_id>"
}

resource "google_project_service" "compute" {
  project = google_project.example.project_id
  service = "compute.googleapis.com"
}

resource "google_project_service" "iam" {
  project = google_project.example.project_id
  service = "iam.googleapis.com"
}

resource "google_project_service" "storage" {
  project = google_project.example.project_id
  service = "storage.googleapis.com"
}

output "project_id" {
  value = google_project.example.project_id
}

Be sure to replace <path_to_service_account_key_json>, <your_organization_id>, and <your_billing_account_id> with the appropriate values for your environment. The above example creates a new project on Google Cloud, defines a name and ID for the project, and associates it with a specific billing account. Additionally, the example enables Compute Engine (compute.googleapis.com), IAM (iam.googleapis.com), and Google Cloud Storage (storage.googleapis.com) services for the project.

After running Terraform, you can use the project_id output to identify the ID of the newly created project.

Hope you like it!!!
