• pre-commit
• terraform-docs required for terraform_docs hooks. GNU awk is required if using terraform-docs older than 0.8.0 with Terraform 0.12.
• TFLint required for terraform_tflint hook.
• TFSec required for terraform_tfsec hook.
• coreutils required for terraform_validate hook on macOS (due to use of realpath).

Step into the repository you want to have the pre-commit hooks installed and run:

git init
cat <<EOF > .pre-commit-config.yaml
repos:
- repo: git://github.com/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform
  rev: <VERSION> # Get the latest from: https://github.com/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform/releases
  hooks:
    - id: terraform_fmt
    - id: terraform_docs
EOF

After pre-commit hook has been installed you can run it manually on all files in the repository

pre-commit run -a

There are several pre-commit hooks to keep Terraform configurations (both *.tf and *.tfvars) and Terragrunt configurations (*.hcl) in a good shape:

Check the source file to know arguments used for each hook.

1. terraform_docs and terraform_docs_without_aggregate_type_defaults will insert/update documentation generated by terraform-docs framed by markers:

<!-- BEGINNING OF PRE-COMMIT-TERRAFORM DOCS HOOK -->

<!-- END OF PRE-COMMIT-TERRAFORM DOCS HOOK -->

if they are present in README.md.

1. terraform_docs_replace replaces the entire README.md rather than doing string replacement between markers. Put your additional documentation at the top of your main.tf for it to be pulled in. The optional --dest argument lets you change the name of the file that gets created/modified.

   1. Example:

   hooks:
     - id: terraform_docs_replace
       args: ['--with-aggregate-type-defaults', '--sort-inputs-by-required', '--dest=TEST.md']

2. It is possible to pass additional arguments to shell scripts when using terraform_docs and terraform_docs_without_aggregate_type_defaults. Send pull-request with the new hook if there is something missing.

1. terraform_tflint supports custom arguments so you can enable module inspection, deep check mode etc.

   1. Example:

   hooks:
     - id: terraform_tflint
       args: ['args=--deep']

   In order to pass multiple args, try the following:

    - id: terraform_tflint
      args:
         - 'args=--deep'
         - 'args=--enable-rule=terraform_documented_variables'

1. terraform_tfsec will recurse all directories/modules.
2. To ignore specific warnings, follow the convention from the documentation.
   1. Example:

   resource "aws_security_group_rule" "my-rule" {
       type = "ingress"
       cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"] #tfsec:ignore:AWS006
   }

1. Python hooks are supported now too. All you have to do is:
   1. add a line to the console_scripts array in entry_points in setup.py
   2. Put your python script in the pre_commit_hooks folder

Enjoy the clean and documented code!
