DESCRIPTION

This man page gathers random notes about tagging Terraform files.

TIPS

Extracting variables assigned in Variable definitions

Specify --extras=+{reference} and --languages=+TerraformVariables to extract variables assigned in variables definitions (*.tfvars). The TerraformVariables parser extracts variables in *.tfvars files with variable kind with assigned role of Terraform language.

KNOWN BUGS

• The parser doesn’t ignore strings inside a block comment (/* ... */).

• The parser doesn’t extract variables defined with locals keyword.
