Feature request: Add option to disable `-no-color` flag

[qa-simon-heuser]

Hi guys,

we were wondering if it is possible to enable colored output for the Terraform commands.

We are interested in a colored output of the Terraform plan (in ShowPlanFileRaw). However, the showCmd function automatically adds the -no-color flag. It would be nice if the -no-color flag could be optionally disabled, resulting in colored command output.

Thanks in advance!

Would be interested in a -color flag too

Interesting. What is your use case for this?

[qa-simon-heuser]

We are building a custom infrastructure tool which integrates terraform-exec. So for nicer usability and look and feel, we would like colored Terraform output in this tool.

@kmoe we are building a tool which wraps terraform to load var files or configure backends be conventions:

https://github.com/terrarium-tf/cli

so a colored output just makes things a little bit more "native"

I don't understand why the --no-color is hardcoded there, it should be an option.

Any reason why the PR is not merged yet?
