#### 1.1 Custom Terraform binaries and OpenTofu support

It is possible to set custom path to `terraform` binary.
This makes it possible to use [OpenTofu](https://opentofu.org) binary `tofu` instead of `terraform`.

How binary discovery works and how you can redefine it (first matched takes precedence):

1. Check if per hook configuration `--hook-config=--tf-path=` is set
2. Check if `PCT_TFPATH=` environment variable is set
3. Check if `TERRAGRUNT_TFPATH=` environment variable is set
4. Check if `terraform` binary can be found in the user's $PATH
5. Check if `tofu` binary can be found in the user's $PATH

Docker

**Pull docker image with all hooks**:

```bash
TAG=latest
docker pull ghcr.io/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform:$TAG
```

All available tags [here](https://github.com/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform/pkgs/container/pre-commit-terraform/versions).

**Build from scratch**:

> [!IMPORTANT]
> To build image you need to have [`docker buildx`](https://docs.docker.com/build/install-buildx/) enabled as default builder.
> Otherwise - provide `TARGETOS` and `TARGETARCH` as additional `--build-arg`'s to `docker build`.

When hooks-related `--build-arg`s are not specified, only the latest version of `pre-commit` and `terraform` will be installed.

```bash
git clone [email protected]:antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform.git
cd pre-commit-terraform
# Install the latest versions of all the tools
docker build -t pre-commit-terraform --build-arg INSTALL_ALL=true .
```

To install a specific version of individual tools, define it using `--build-arg` arguments or set it to `latest`:

```bash
docker build -t pre-commit-terraform \
--build-arg PRE_COMMIT_VERSION=latest \
--build-arg OPENTOFU_VERSION=latest \
--build-arg TERRAFORM_VERSION=1.5.7 \
--build-arg CHECKOV_VERSION=2.0.405 \
--build-arg HCLEDIT_VERSION=latest \
--build-arg INFRACOST_VERSION=latest \
--build-arg TERRAFORM_DOCS_VERSION=0.15.0 \
--build-arg TERRAGRUNT_VERSION=latest \
--build-arg TERRASCAN_VERSION=1.10.0 \
--build-arg TFLINT_VERSION=0.31.0 \
--build-arg TFSEC_VERSION=latest \
--build-arg TFUPDATE_VERSION=latest \
--build-arg TRIVY_VERSION=latest \
.
```

Set `-e PRE_COMMIT_COLOR=never` to disable the color output in `pre-commit`.

Windows 10/11

We highly recommend using [WSL/WSL2](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install) with Ubuntu and following the Ubuntu installation guide. Or use Docker.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> We won't be able to help with issues that can't be reproduced in Linux/Mac.
> So, try to find a working solution and send PR before open an issue.

Otherwise, you can follow [this gist](https://gist.github.com/etiennejeanneaurevolve/1ed387dc73c5d4cb53ab313049587d09):

1. Install [`git`](https://git-scm.com/downloads) and [`gitbash`](https://gitforwindows.org/)
2. Install [Python 3](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
3. Install all prerequisites needed (see above)

Ensure your PATH environment variable looks for `bash.exe` in `C:\Program Files\Git\bin` (the one present in `C:\Windows\System32\bash.exe` does not work with `pre-commit.exe`)

For `checkov`, you may need to also set your `PYTHONPATH` environment variable with the path to your Python modules.
E.g. `C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Lib\site-packages`

### 2. Install the pre-commit hook globally

> [!NOTE]
> Not needed if you use the Docker image

```bash
DIR=~/.git-template
git config --global init.templateDir ${DIR}
pre-commit init-templatedir -t pre-commit ${DIR}
```

### 3. Add configs and hooks

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

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

### 4. Run

Execute this command to run `pre-commit` on all files in the repository (not only changed files):

```bash
pre-commit run -a
```

Or, using Docker ([available tags](https://github.com/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform/pkgs/container/pre-commit-terraform/versions)):

> [!TIP]
> This command uses your user id and group id for the docker container to use to access the local files. If the files are owned by another user, update the `USERID` environment variable. See [File Permissions section](#file-permissions) for more information.

```bash
TAG=latest
docker run -e "USERID=$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v $(pwd):/lint -w /lint ghcr.io/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform:$TAG run -a
```

Execute this command to list the versions of the tools in Docker:

```bash
TAG=latest
docker run --rm --entrypoint cat ghcr.io/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform:$TAG /usr/bin/tools_versions_info
```

## Available Hooks

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

Check the [source file](https://github.com/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform/blob/master/.pre-commit-hooks.yaml) to know arguments used for each hook.

## Hooks usage notes and examples

### Known limitations

Terraform operates on a per-dir basis, while `pre-commit` framework only supports files and files that exist. This means if you only remove the TF-related file without any other changes in the same dir, checks will be skipped. Example and details [here](https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit/issues/3048).

### All hooks: Usage of environment variables in `--args`

> All, except deprecated hooks: `checkov`, `terraform_docs_replace`

You can use environment variables for the `--args` section.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> You _must_ use the `${ENV_VAR}` definition, `$ENV_VAR` will not expand.

Config example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_tflint
args:
- --args=--config=${CONFIG_NAME}.${CONFIG_EXT}
- --args=--module
```

If for config above set up `export CONFIG_NAME=.tflint; export CONFIG_EXT=hcl` before `pre-commit run`, args will be expanded to `--config=.tflint.hcl --module`.

### All hooks: Set env vars inside hook at runtime

> All, except deprecated hooks: `checkov`, `terraform_docs_replace`

You can specify environment variables that will be passed to the hook at runtime.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> Variable values are exported _verbatim_:
> - No interpolation or expansion are applied
> - The enclosing double quotes are removed if they are provided

Config example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_validate
args:
- --env-vars=AWS_DEFAULT_REGION="us-west-2"
- --env-vars=AWS_PROFILE="my-aws-cli-profile"
```

### All hooks: Disable color output

> All, except deprecated hooks: `checkov`, `terraform_docs_replace`

To disable color output for all hooks, set `PRE_COMMIT_COLOR=never` var. Eg:

```bash
PRE_COMMIT_COLOR=never pre-commit run
```

### All hooks: Log levels

In case you need to debug hooks, you can set `PCT_LOG=trace`.

For example:

```bash
PCT_LOG=trace pre-commit run -a
```

Less verbose log levels will be implemented in [#562](https://github.com/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform/issues/562).

### Many hooks: Parallelism

> All, except deprecated hooks: `checkov`, `terraform_docs_replace` and hooks which can't be paralleled this way: `infracost_breakdown`, `terraform_wrapper_module_for_each`.
> Also, there's a chance that parallelism have no effect on `terragrunt_fmt` and `terragrunt_validate` hooks

By default, parallelism is set to `number of logical CPUs - 1`.
If you'd like to disable parallelism, set it to `1`

```yaml
- id: terragrunt_validate
args:
- --hook-config=--parallelism-limit=1
```

In the same way you can set it to any positive integer.

If you'd like to set parallelism value relative to number of CPU logical cores - provide valid Bash arithmetic expression and use `CPU` as a reference to the number of CPU logical cores

```yaml
- id: terraform_providers_lock
args:
- --hook-config=--parallelism-limit=CPU*4
```

> [!TIP]
> Info useful for parallelism fine-tunning
>
>

> Tests below were run on repo with 45 Terraform dirs on laptop with 16 CPUs, SSD and 1Gbit/s network. Laptop was slightly used in the process.
>
> Observed results may vary greatly depending on your repo structure, machine characteristics and their usage.
>
> If during fine-tuning you'll find that your results are very different from provided below and you think that this data could help someone else - feel free to send PR.

>

```yaml
args:
- --hook-config=--parallelism-ci-cpu-cores=N
```

If you don't see code above in your `pre-commit-config.yaml` or logs - you don't need it.
`--parallelism-ci-cpu-cores` used only in edge cases and is ignored in other situations. Check out its usage in [hooks/_common.sh](hooks/_common.sh)

### checkov (deprecated) and terraform_checkov

> `checkov` hook is deprecated, please use `terraform_checkov`.

Note that `terraform_checkov` runs recursively during `-d .` usage. That means, for example, if you change `.tf` file in repo root, all existing `.tf` files in the repo will be checked.

1. You can specify custom arguments. E.g.:

```yaml
- id: terraform_checkov
args:
- --args=--quiet
- --args=--skip-check CKV2_AWS_8
```

Check all available arguments [here](https://www.checkov.io/2.Basics/CLI%20Command%20Reference.html).

For deprecated hook you need to specify each argument separately:

```yaml
- id: checkov
args: [
"-d", ".",
"--skip-check", "CKV2_AWS_8",
]
```

2. When you have multiple directories and want to run `terraform_checkov` in all of them and share a single config file - use the `__GIT_WORKING_DIR__` placeholder. It will be replaced by `terraform_checkov` hooks with the Git working directory (repo root) at run time. For example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_checkov
args:
- --args=--config-file __GIT_WORKING_DIR__/.checkov.yml
```

### infracost_breakdown

`infracost_breakdown` executes `infracost breakdown` command and compare the estimated costs with those specified in the hook-config. `infracost breakdown` parses Terraform HCL code, and calls Infracost Cloud Pricing API (remote version or [self-hosted version](https://www.infracost.io/docs/cloud_pricing_api/self_hosted)).

Unlike most other hooks, this hook triggers once if there are any changed files in the repository.

1. `infracost_breakdown` supports all `infracost breakdown` arguments (run `infracost breakdown --help` to see them). The following example only shows costs:

```yaml
- id: infracost_breakdown
args:
- --args=--path=./env/dev
verbose: true # Always show costs
```

Output

```bash
Running in "env/dev"

Summary: {
"unsupportedResourceCounts": {
"aws_sns_topic_subscription": 1
}
}

Total Monthly Cost: 86.83 USD
Total Monthly Cost (diff): 86.83 USD
```

2. Note that spaces are not allowed in `--args`, so you need to split it, like this:

```yaml
- id: infracost_breakdown
args:
- --args=--path=./env/dev
- --args=--terraform-var-file="terraform.tfvars"
- --args=--terraform-var-file="../terraform.tfvars"
```

3. (Optionally) Define `cost constraints` the hook should evaluate successfully in order to pass:

```yaml
- id: infracost_breakdown
args:
- --args=--path=./env/dev
- --hook-config='.totalHourlyCost|tonumber > 0.1'
- --hook-config='.totalHourlyCost|tonumber > 1'
- --hook-config='.projects[].diff.totalMonthlyCost|tonumber != 10000'
- --hook-config='.currency == "USD"'
```

Output

```bash
Running in "env/dev"
Passed: .totalHourlyCost|tonumber > 0.1 0.11894520547945205 > 0.1
Failed: .totalHourlyCost|tonumber > 1 0.11894520547945205 > 1
Passed: .projects[].diff.totalMonthlyCost|tonumber !=10000 86.83 != 10000
Passed: .currency == "USD" "USD" == "USD"

Summary: {
"unsupportedResourceCounts": {
"aws_sns_topic_subscription": 1
}
}

Total Monthly Cost: 86.83 USD
Total Monthly Cost (diff): 86.83 USD
```

* Only one path per one hook (`- id: infracost_breakdown`) is allowed.
* Set `verbose: true` to see cost even when the checks are passed.
* Hook uses `jq` to process the cost estimation report returned by `infracost breakdown` command
* Expressions defined as `--hook-config` argument should be in a jq-compatible format (e.g. `.totalHourlyCost`, `.totalMonthlyCost`)
To study json output produced by `infracost`, run the command `infracost breakdown -p PATH_TO_TF_DIR --format json`, and explore it on [jqplay.org](https://jqplay.org/).
* Supported comparison operators: `<`, `<=`, `==`, `!=`, `>=`, `>`.
* Most useful paths and checks:
* `.totalHourlyCost` (same as `.projects[].breakdown.totalHourlyCost`) - show total hourly infra cost
* `.totalMonthlyCost` (same as `.projects[].breakdown.totalMonthlyCost`) - show total monthly infra cost
* `.projects[].diff.totalHourlyCost` - show the difference in hourly cost for the existing infra and tf plan
* `.projects[].diff.totalMonthlyCost` - show the difference in monthly cost for the existing infra and tf plan
* `.diffTotalHourlyCost` (for Infracost version 0.9.12 or newer) or `[.projects[].diff.totalMonthlyCost | select (.!=null) | tonumber] | add` (for Infracost older than 0.9.12)

4. **Docker usage**. In `docker build` or `docker run` command:
* You need to provide [Infracost API key](https://www.infracost.io/docs/integrations/environment_variables/#infracost_api_key) via `-e INFRACOST_API_KEY=`. By default, it is saved in `~/.config/infracost/credentials.yml`
* Set `-e INFRACOST_SKIP_UPDATE_CHECK=true` to [skip the Infracost update check](https://www.infracost.io/docs/integrations/environment_variables/#infracost_skip_update_check) if you use this hook as part of your CI/CD pipeline.

### terraform_docs

1. `terraform_docs` and `terraform_docs_without_aggregate_type_defaults` will insert/update documentation generated by [terraform-docs](https://github.com/terraform-docs/terraform-docs) framed by markers:

```txt


```

if they are present in `README.md`.

2. It is possible to pass additional arguments to shell scripts when using `terraform_docs` and `terraform_docs_without_aggregate_type_defaults`.

3. It is possible to automatically:
* create a documentation file
* extend existing documentation file by appending markers to the end of the file (see item 1 above)
* use different filename for the documentation (default is `README.md`)
* use the same insertion markers as `terraform-docs`. It's default starting from `v1.93`.
To migrate everything to `terraform-docs` insertion markers, run in repo root:

```bash
sed --version &> /dev/null && SED_CMD=(sed -i) || SED_CMD=(sed -i '')
grep -rl --null 'BEGINNING OF PRE-COMMIT-TERRAFORM DOCS HOOK' . | xargs -0 "${SED_CMD[@]}" -e 's/BEGINNING OF PRE-COMMIT-TERRAFORM DOCS HOOK/BEGIN_TF_DOCS/'
grep -rl --null 'END OF PRE-COMMIT-TERRAFORM DOCS HOOK' . | xargs -0 "${SED_CMD[@]}" -e 's/END OF PRE-COMMIT-TERRAFORM DOCS HOOK/END_TF_DOCS/'
```

```yaml
- id: terraform_docs
args:
- --hook-config=--path-to-file=README.md # Valid UNIX path. I.e. ../TFDOC.md or docs/README.md etc.
- --hook-config=--add-to-existing-file=true # Boolean. true or false
- --hook-config=--create-file-if-not-exist=true # Boolean. true or false
- --hook-config=--use-standard-markers=true # Boolean. Defaults to true (v1.93+), false ( **Warning**
> Avoid use `recursive.enabled: true` in config file, that can cause unexpected behavior.

5. You can provide [any configuration available in `terraform-docs`](https://terraform-docs.io/user-guide/configuration/) as an argument to `terraform_docs` hook:

```yaml
- id: terraform_docs
args:
- --args=--output-mode=replace
```

6. If you need some exotic settings, it can be done too. I.e. this one generates HCL files:

```yaml
- id: terraform_docs
args:
- tfvars hcl --output-file terraform.tfvars.model .
```

### terraform_docs_replace (deprecated)

**DEPRECATED**. Will be merged in [`terraform_docs`](#terraform_docs).

`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.

To replicate functionality in `terraform_docs` hook:

1. Create `.terraform-docs.yml` in the repo root with the following content:

```yaml
formatter: "markdown"

output:
file: "README.md"
mode: replace
template: |-
{{/** End of file fixer */}}
```

2. Replace `terraform_docs_replace` hook config in `.pre-commit-config.yaml` with:

```yaml
- id: terraform_docs
args:
- --args=--config=.terraform-docs.yml
```

### terraform_fmt

1. `terraform_fmt` supports custom arguments so you can pass [supported flags](https://www.terraform.io/docs/cli/commands/fmt.html#usage). Eg:

```yaml
- id: terraform_fmt
args:
- --args=-no-color
- --args=-diff
- --args=-write=false
```

### terraform_providers_lock

> [!NOTE]
> The hook requires Terraform 0.14 or later.

> [!NOTE]
> The hook can invoke `terraform providers lock` that can be really slow and requires fetching metadata from remote Terraform registries - not all of that metadata is currently being cached by Terraform.

> [!NOTE]
> Read this if you used this hook before v1.80.0 | Planned breaking changes in v2.0
>

> We introduced `--mode` flag for this hook. If you'd like to continue using this hook as before, please:
>
> * Specify `--hook-config=--mode=always-regenerate-lockfile` in `args:`
> * Before `terraform_providers_lock`, add `terraform_validate` hook with `--hook-config=--retry-once-with-cleanup=true`
> * Move `--tf-init-args=` to `terraform_validate` hook
>
> In the end, you should get config like this:
>
> ```yaml
> - id: terraform_validate
> args:
> - --hook-config=--retry-once-with-cleanup=true
> # - --tf-init-args=-upgrade
>
> - id: terraform_providers_lock
> args:
> - --hook-config=--mode=always-regenerate-lockfile
> ```
>
> Why? When v2.x will be introduced - the default mode will be changed, probably, to `only-check-is-current-lockfile-cross-platform`.
>
> You can check available modes for hook below.
>

1. The hook can work in a few different modes: `only-check-is-current-lockfile-cross-platform` with and without [terraform_validate hook](#terraform_validate) and `always-regenerate-lockfile` - only with terraform_validate hook.

* `only-check-is-current-lockfile-cross-platform` without terraform_validate - only checks that lockfile has all required SHAs for all providers already added to lockfile.

```yaml
- id: terraform_providers_lock
args:
- --hook-config=--mode=only-check-is-current-lockfile-cross-platform
```

* `only-check-is-current-lockfile-cross-platform` with [terraform_validate hook](#terraform_validate) - make up-to-date lockfile by adding/removing providers and only then check that lockfile has all required SHAs.

> **Important**
> Next `terraform_validate` flag requires additional dependency to be installed: `jq`. Also, it could run another slow and time consuming command - `terraform init`

```yaml
- id: terraform_validate
args:
- --hook-config=--retry-once-with-cleanup=true

- id: terraform_providers_lock
args:
- --hook-config=--mode=only-check-is-current-lockfile-cross-platform
```

* `always-regenerate-lockfile` only with [terraform_validate hook](#terraform_validate) - regenerate lockfile from scratch. Can be useful for upgrading providers in lockfile to latest versions

```yaml
- id: terraform_validate
args:
- --hook-config=--retry-once-with-cleanup=true
- --tf-init-args=-upgrade

- id: terraform_providers_lock
args:
- --hook-config=--mode=always-regenerate-lockfile
```

3. `terraform_providers_lock` supports custom arguments:

```yaml
- id: terraform_providers_lock
args:
- --args=-platform=windows_amd64
- --args=-platform=darwin_amd64
```

4. It may happen that Terraform working directory (`.terraform`) already exists but not in the best condition (eg, not initialized modules, wrong version of Terraform, etc.). To solve this problem, you can find and delete all `.terraform` directories in your repository:

```bash
echo "
function rm_terraform {
find . \( -iname ".terraform*" ! -iname ".terraform-docs*" \) -print0 | xargs -0 rm -r
}
" >>~/.bashrc

# Reload shell and use `rm_terraform` command in the repo root
```

`terraform_providers_lock` hook will try to reinitialize directories before running the `terraform providers lock` command.

3. `terraform_providers_lock` support passing custom arguments to its `terraform init`:

> **Warning**
> DEPRECATION NOTICE: This is available only in `no-mode` mode, which will be removed in v2.0. Please provide this keys to [`terraform_validate`](#terraform_validate) hook, which, to take effect, should be called before `terraform_providers_lock`

```yaml
- id: terraform_providers_lock
args:
- --tf-init-args=-upgrade
```

### terraform_tflint

1. `terraform_tflint` supports custom arguments so you can enable module inspection, enable / disable rules, etc.

Example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_tflint
args:
- --args=--module
- --args=--enable-rule=terraform_documented_variables
```

2. When you have multiple directories and want to run `tflint` in all of them and share a single config file, it is impractical to hard-code the path to the `.tflint.hcl` file. The solution is to use the `__GIT_WORKING_DIR__` placeholder which will be replaced by `terraform_tflint` hooks with the Git working directory (repo root) at run time. For example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_tflint
args:
- --args=--config=__GIT_WORKING_DIR__/.tflint.hcl
```

3. By default, pre-commit-terraform performs directory switching into the terraform modules for you. If you want to delegate the directory changing to the binary - this will allow tflint to determine the full paths for error/warning messages, rather than just module relative paths. *Note: this requires `tflint>=0.44.0`.* For example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_tflint
args:
- --hook-config=--delegate-chdir
```

### terraform_tfsec (deprecated)

**DEPRECATED**. [tfsec was replaced by trivy](https://github.com/aquasecurity/tfsec/discussions/1994), so please use [`terraform_trivy`](#terraform_trivy).

1. `terraform_tfsec` will consume modified files that pre-commit
passes to it, so you can perform whitelisting of directories
or files to run against via [files](https://pre-commit.com/#config-files)
pre-commit flag

Example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_tfsec
files: ^prd-infra/
```

The above will tell pre-commit to pass down files from the `prd-infra/` folder
only such that the underlying `tfsec` tool can run against changed files in this
directory, ignoring any other folders at the root level

2. To ignore specific warnings, follow the convention from the
[documentation](https://github.com/aquasecurity/tfsec#ignoring-warnings).

Example:

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

3. `terraform_tfsec` supports custom arguments, so you can pass supported `--no-color` or `--format` (output), `-e` (exclude checks) flags:

```yaml
- id: terraform_tfsec
args:
- >
--args=--format json
--no-color
-e aws-s3-enable-bucket-logging,aws-s3-specify-public-access-block
```

4. When you have multiple directories and want to run `tfsec` in all of them and share a single config file - use the `__GIT_WORKING_DIR__` placeholder. It will be replaced by `terraform_tfsec` hooks with Git working directory (repo root) at run time. For example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_tfsec
args:
- --args=--config-file=__GIT_WORKING_DIR__/.tfsec.json
```

Otherwise, will be used files that located in sub-folders:

```yaml
- id: terraform_tfsec
args:
- --args=--config-file=.tfsec.json
```

### terraform_trivy

1. `terraform_trivy` will consume modified files that pre-commit
passes to it, so you can perform whitelisting of directories
or files to run against via [files](https://pre-commit.com/#config-files)
pre-commit flag

Example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_trivy
files: ^prd-infra/
```

The above will tell pre-commit to pass down files from the `prd-infra/` folder
only such that the underlying `trivy` tool can run against changed files in this
directory, ignoring any other folders at the root level

2. To ignore specific warnings, follow the convention from the
[documentation](https://aquasecurity.github.io/trivy/latest/docs/configuration/filtering/).

Example:

```hcl
#trivy:ignore:AVD-AWS-0107
#trivy:ignore:AVD-AWS-0124
resource "aws_security_group_rule" "my-rule" {
type = "ingress"
cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
}
```

3. `terraform_trivy` supports custom arguments, so you can pass supported `--format` (output), `--skip-dirs` (exclude directories) and other flags:

```yaml
- id: terraform_trivy
args:
- --args=--format=json
- --args=--skip-dirs="**/.terraform"
```

4. When you have multiple directories and want to run `trivy` in all of them and share a single config file - use the `__GIT_WORKING_DIR__` placeholder. It will be replaced by `terraform_trivy` hooks with Git working directory (repo root) at run time. For example:

```yaml
- id: terraform_trivy
args:
- --args=--ignorefile=__GIT_WORKING_DIR__/.trivyignore
```

### terraform_validate

> [!IMPORTANT]
> If you use [`TF_PLUGIN_CACHE_DIR`](https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/cli/config/config-file#provider-plugin-cache), we recommend enabling `--hook-config=--retry-once-with-cleanup=true` or disabling parallelism (`--hook-config=--parallelism-limit=1`) to avoid [race conditions when `terraform init` writes to it](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/31964).

1. `terraform_validate` supports custom arguments so you can pass supported `-no-color` or `-json` flags:

```yaml
- id: terraform_validate
args:
- --args=-json
- --args=-no-color
```

2. `terraform_validate` also supports passing custom arguments to its `terraform init`:

```yaml
- id: terraform_validate
args:
- --tf-init-args=-upgrade
- --tf-init-args=-lockfile=readonly
```

3. It may happen that Terraform working directory (`.terraform`) already exists but not in the best condition (eg, not initialized modules, wrong version of Terraform, etc.). To solve this problem, you can delete broken `.terraform` directories in your repository:

**Option 1**

```yaml
- id: terraform_validate
args:
- --hook-config=--retry-once-with-cleanup=true # Boolean. true or false
```

> **Important**
> The flag requires additional dependency to be installed: `jq`.

> **Note**
> Reinit can be very slow and require downloading data from remote Terraform registries, and not all of that downloaded data or meta-data is currently being cached by Terraform.

When `--retry-once-with-cleanup=true`, in each failed directory the cached modules and providers from the `.terraform` directory will be deleted, before retrying once more. To avoid unnecessary deletion of this directory, the cleanup and retry will only happen if Terraform produces any of the following error messages:

* "Missing or corrupted provider plugins"
* "Module source has changed"
* "Module version requirements have changed"
* "Module not installed"
* "Could not load plugin"

> **Warning**
> When using `--retry-once-with-cleanup=true`, problematic `.terraform/modules/` and `.terraform/providers/` directories will be recursively deleted without prompting for consent. Other files and directories will not be affected, such as the `.terraform/environment` file.

**Option 2**

An alternative solution is to find and delete all `.terraform` directories in your repository:

```bash
echo "
function rm_terraform {
find . \( -iname ".terraform*" ! -iname ".terraform-docs*" \) -print0 | xargs -0 rm -r
}
" >>~/.bashrc

# Reload shell and use `rm_terraform` command in the repo root
```

`terraform_validate` hook will try to reinitialize them before running the `terraform validate` command.

> **Caution**
> If you use Terraform workspaces, DO NOT use this option ([details](https://github.com/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform/issues/203#issuecomment-918791847)). Consider the first option, or wait for [`force-init`](https://github.com/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform/issues/224) option implementation.

1. `terraform_validate` in a repo with Terraform module, written using Terraform 0.15+ and which uses provider `configuration_aliases` ([Provider Aliases Within Modules](https://www.terraform.io/language/modules/develop/providers#provider-aliases-within-modules)), errors out.

When running the hook against Terraform code where you have provider `configuration_aliases` defined in a `required_providers` configuration block, terraform will throw an error like:

> Error: Provider configuration not present
> To work with `` its original provider configuration at provider `["registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/aws"].` is required, but it has been removed. This occurs when a provider configuration is removed while
> objects created by that provider still exist in the state. Re-add the provider configuration to destroy ``, after which you can remove the provider configuration again.

This is a [known issue](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/28490) with Terraform and how providers are initialized in Terraform 0.15 and later. To work around this you can add an `exclude` parameter to the configuration of `terraform_validate` hook like this:

```yaml
- id: terraform_validate
exclude: '^[^/]+$'
```

This will exclude the root directory from being processed by this hook. Then add a subdirectory like "examples" or "tests" and put an example implementation in place that defines the providers with the proper aliases, and this will give you validation of your module through the example. If instead you are using this with multiple modules in one repository you'll want to set the path prefix in the regular expression, such as `exclude: modules/offendingmodule/[^/]+$`.

Alternately, you can use [terraform-config-inspect](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-config-inspect) and use a variant of [this script](https://github.com/bendrucker/terraform-configuration-aliases-action/blob/main/providers.sh) to generate a providers file at runtime:

```bash
terraform-config-inspect --json . | jq -r '
[.required_providers[].aliases]
| flatten
| del(.[] | select(. == null))
| reduce .[] as $entry (
{};
.provider[$entry.name] //= [] | .provider[$entry.name] += [{"alias": $entry.alias}]
)
' | tee aliased-providers.tf.json
```

Save it as `.generate-providers.sh` in the root of your repository and add a `pre-commit` hook to run it before all other hooks, like so:

```yaml
- repos:
- repo: local
hooks:
- id: generate-terraform-providers
name: generate-terraform-providers
require_serial: true
entry: .generate-providers.sh
language: script
files: \.tf(vars)?$
pass_filenames: false

- repo: https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks
[...]
```

> **Tip**
> The latter method will leave an "aliased-providers.tf.json" file in your repo. You will either want to automate a way to clean this up or add it to your `.gitignore` or both.

### terraform_wrapper_module_for_each

`terraform_wrapper_module_for_each` generates module wrappers for Terraform modules (useful for Terragrunt where `for_each` is not supported). When using this hook without arguments it will create wrappers for the root module and all modules available in "modules" directory.

You may want to customize some of the options:

1. `--module-dir=...` - Specify a single directory to process. Values: "." (means just root module), "modules/iam-user" (a single module), or empty (means include all submodules found in "modules/*").
2. `--module-repo-org=...` - Module repository organization (e.g. "terraform-aws-modules").
3. `--module-repo-shortname=...` - Short name of the repository (e.g. "s3-bucket").
4. `--module-repo-provider=...` - Name of the repository provider (e.g. "aws" or "google").

Sample configuration:

```yaml
- id: terraform_wrapper_module_for_each
args:
- --args=--module-dir=. # Process only root module
- --args=--dry-run # No files will be created/updated
- --args=--verbose # Verbose output
```

**If you use hook inside Docker:**
The `terraform_wrapper_module_for_each` hook attempts to determine the module's short name to be inserted into the generated `README.md` files for the `source` URLs. Since the container uses a bind mount at a static location, it can cause this short name to be incorrect.
If the generated name is incorrect, set them by providing the `module-repo-shortname` option to the hook:

```yaml
- id: terraform_wrapper_module_for_each
args:
- '--args=--module-repo-shortname=ec2-instance'
```

### terrascan

1. `terrascan` supports custom arguments so you can pass supported flags like `--non-recursive` and `--policy-type` to disable recursive inspection and set the policy type respectively:

```yaml
- id: terrascan
args:
- --args=--non-recursive # avoids scan errors on subdirectories without Terraform config files
- --args=--policy-type=azure
```

See the `terrascan run -h` command line help for available options.

2. Use the `--args=--verbose` parameter to see the rule ID in the scanning output. Useful to skip validations.
3. Use `--skip-rules="ruleID1,ruleID2"` parameter to skip one or more rules globally while scanning (e.g.: `--args=--skip-rules="ruleID1,ruleID2"`).
4. Use the syntax `#ts:skip=RuleID optional_comment` inside a resource to skip the rule for that resource.

### tfupdate

1. Out of the box `tfupdate` will pin the terraform version:

```yaml
- id: tfupdate
name: Autoupdate Terraform versions
```

2. If you'd like to pin providers, etc., use custom arguments, i.e `provider=PROVIDER_NAME`:

```yaml
- id: tfupdate
name: Autoupdate AWS provider versions
args:
- --args=provider aws # Will be pined to latest version

- id: tfupdate
name: Autoupdate Helm provider versions
args:
- --args=provider helm
- --args=--version 2.5.0 # Will be pined to specified version
```

Check [`tfupdate` usage instructions](https://github.com/minamijoyo/tfupdate#usage) for other available options and usage examples.
No need to pass `--recursive .` as it is added automatically.

### terragrunt_providers_lock

> [!TIP]
> Use this hook only in infrastructure repos managed solely by `terragrunt` and do not mix with [`terraform_providers_lock`](#terraform_providers_lock) to avoid conflicts.

> [!WARNING]
> Hook _may_ be very slow, because terragrunt invokes `t init` under the hood.

Hook produces same results as [`terraform_providers_lock`](#terraform_providers_lock), but for terragrunt root modules.

It invokes `terragrunt providers lock` under the hood and terragrunt [does its' own magic](https://terragrunt.gruntwork.io/docs/features/lock-file-handling/) for handling lock files.

```yaml
- id: terragrunt_providers_lock
name: Terragrunt providers lock
args:
- --args=-platform=darwin_arm64
- --args=-platform=darwin_amd64
- --args=-platform=linux_amd64
```

### terragrunt_validate_inputs

Validates Terragrunt unused and undefined inputs. This is useful for keeping
configs clean when module versions change or if configs are copied.

See the [Terragrunt docs](https://terragrunt.gruntwork.io/docs/reference/cli-options/#validate-inputs) for more details.

Example:

```yaml
- id: terragrunt_validate_inputs
name: Terragrunt validate inputs
args:
# Optionally check for unused inputs
- --args=--terragrunt-strict-validate
```

> [!NOTE]
> This hook requires authentication to a given account if defined by config to work properly. For example, if you use a third-party tool to store AWS credentials like `aws-vault` you must be authenticated first.
>
> See docs for the [iam_role](https://terragrunt.gruntwork.io/docs/reference/config-blocks-and-attributes/#iam_role) attribute and [--terragrunt-iam-role](https://terragrunt.gruntwork.io/docs/reference/cli-options/#terragrunt-iam-role) flag for more.

## Docker Usage

### File Permissions

A mismatch between the Docker container's user and the local repository file ownership can cause permission issues in the repository where `pre-commit` is run. The container runs as the `root` user by default, and uses a `tools/entrypoint.sh` script to assume a user ID and group ID if specified by the environment variable `USERID`.

The [recommended command](#4-run) to run the Docker container is:

```bash
TAG=latest
docker run -e "USERID=$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v $(pwd):/lint -w /lint ghcr.io/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform:$TAG run -a
```

which uses your current session's user ID and group ID to set the variable in the run command. Without this setting, you may find files and directories owned by `root` in your local repository.

If the local repository is using a different user or group for permissions, you can modify the `USERID` to the user ID and group ID needed. **Do not use the username or groupname in the environment variable, as it has no meaning in the container.** You can get the current directory's owner user ID and group ID from the 3rd (user) and 4th (group) columns in `ls` output:

```bash
$ ls -aldn .
drwxr-xr-x 9 1000 1000 4096 Sep 1 16:23 .

### Download Terraform modules from private GitHub repositories

If you use a private Git repository as your Terraform module source, you are required to authenticate to GitHub using a [Personal Access Token](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/creating-a-personal-access-token).

When running pre-commit on Docker, both locally or on CI, you need to configure the [~/.netrc](https://www.gnu.org/software/inetutils/manual/html_node/The-_002enetrc-file.html) file, which contains login and initialization information used by the auto-login process.

This can be achieved by firstly creating the `~/.netrc` file including your `GITHUB_PAT` and `GITHUB_SERVER_HOSTNAME`

```bash
# set GH values (replace with your own values)
GITHUB_PAT=ghp_bl481aBlabl481aBla
GITHUB_SERVER_HOSTNAME=github.com

# create .netrc file
echo -e "machine $GITHUB_SERVER_HOSTNAME\n\tlogin $GITHUB_PAT" >> ~/.netrc
```

The `~/.netrc` file will look similar to the following:

```
machine github.com
login ghp_bl481aBlabl481aBla
```

> [!TIP]
> The value of `GITHUB_SERVER_HOSTNAME` can also refer to a GitHub Enterprise server (i.e. `github.my-enterprise.com`).

Finally, you can execute `docker run` with an additional volume mount so that the `~/.netrc` is accessible within the container

```bash
# run pre-commit-terraform with docker
# adding volume for .netrc file
# .netrc needs to be in /root/ dir
docker run --rm -e "USERID=$(id -u):$(id -g)" -v ~/.netrc:/root/.netrc -v $(pwd):/lint -w /lint ghcr.io/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform:latest run -a
```

## Github Actions

You can use this hook in your GitHub Actions workflow togehther with [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com). To easy up dependency management, you can use the managed [docker image](#docker-usage) within your workflow. Make sure to set the image tag to the version you want to use.

In this repository's pre-commit [workflow file](.github/workflows/pre-commit.yaml) we run pre-commit without the container image.

Here is an example that use the container image, includes caching of pre-commit dependencies and uses the `pre-commit` command to run the checks (but fixes will be not automatically push back to your branch, when it possible):

```yaml
name: pre-commit-terraform

on:
pull_request:

jobs:
pre-commit:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
container:
image: ghcr.io/antonbabenko/pre-commit-terraform:latest # latest used here for simplicity, not recommended
defaults:
run:
shell: bash
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
with:
fetch-depth: 0
ref: ${{ github.event.pull_request.head.sha }}

- run: |
git config --global --add safe.directory $GITHUB_WORKSPACE
git fetch --no-tags --prune --depth=1 origin +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

- name: Get changed files
id: file_changes
run: |
export DIFF=$(git diff --name-only origin/${{ github.base_ref }} ${{ github.sha }})
echo "Diff between ${{ github.base_ref }} and ${{ github.sha }}"
echo "files=$( echo "$DIFF" | xargs echo )" >> $GITHUB_OUTPUT

- name: fix tar dependency in alpine container image
run: |
apk --no-cache add tar
# check python modules installed versions
python -m pip freeze --local

- name: Cache pre-commit since we use pre-commit from container
uses: actions/cache@v4
with:
path: ~/.cache/pre-commit
key: pre-commit-3|${{ hashFiles('.pre-commit-config.yaml') }}

- name: Execute pre-commit
run: |
pre-commit run --color=always --show-diff-on-failure --files ${{ steps.file_changes.outputs.files }}
```
