Скачать или смотреть Exploring Terraform Console - An Interactive Way to Work with Terraform

When working with Terraform, especially on large projects, it can be beneficial to evaluate expressions and explore resources interactively. Terraform Console provides an interactive shell that lets us experiment with Terraform code, inspect resource attributes, and test interpolation syntax without having to apply changes.

What is Terraform Console?

Terraform Console is a built-in REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) tool for Terraform. It allows you to:

Evaluate expressions
Access and manipulate Terraform variables and outputs
Inspect and debug your Terraform configurations
Explore resource attributes and outputs without applying any changes

This tool can be especially useful during the development and debugging stages of your infrastructure as code workflow.

Why Use Terraform Console?

Experimentation: Quickly test and refine expressions, functions, and configurations.
Debugging: Check the current values of variables and outputs, helping you troubleshoot issues.
Learning: A great way to explore and understand how different components and functions in Terraform work together.
