DS18B20 connection on FPGA?

Hello all.
I'm new to FPGA and I need a little help with connecting Dallas 1-wire
temperture DS18B20 sensor.

I used that sensor many times with ARM and AVR MCU but never with
FPGA. What I want to know is how to connect it?
DS needs to have an external pull up resistor. So sometimes I need to
release line so that line is pulled high. DS and FPGA can only drive
line low, high must come from pull up.

So..how to do that? How to use IN/OUT pin that I can "realase"? To MCU
I would simple say "pin input" and it would be released, but in VHDL I
define in entity
pin : inout STD_LOGIC;

Hmm..any ideas?

Thanks.
