This ruleset focus on possible errors and best practices about Terraform Language.

Installation

This ruleset is built into TFLint, so you usually don't need to worry about how to install it. You can check the built-in version with tflint -v:

$ tflint -v
TFLint version 0.52.0
+ ruleset.terraform (0.8.0-bundled)

If you want to use a version different from the built-in version, you can declare plugin in .tflint.hcl as follows and install it with tflint --init:

plugin "terraform" {
    enabled = true
    version = "0.9.1"
    source  = "github.com/terraform-linters/tflint-ruleset-terraform"
}

For more configuration about the plugin, see Plugin Configuration.

$ make install

Note that if you install the plugin with make install, you must omit the version and source attributes in .tflint.hcl:

    enabled = true
}
