# Command: plan
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `terraform plan` command is used to create an execution plan. Terraform
|
||
|
performs a refresh, unless explicitly disabled, and then determines what
|
||
|
actions are necessary to achieve the desired state specified in the
|
||
|
configuration files. The plan can be saved using `-out`, and then provided
|
||
|
to `terraform apply` to ensure only the pre-planned actions are executed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usage: `terraform plan [options] [dir]`
|
||
|
|
||
|
By default, `plan` requires no flags and looks in the current directory
|
||
|
for the configuration and state file to refresh.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `-destroy` - If set, generates a plan to destroy all the known resources.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `-no-color` - Disables output with coloring.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `-out=path` - The path to save the generated execution plan.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `-refresh=true` - Update the state prior to checking for differences.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `-state=path` - Path to the state file. Defaults to "terraform.tfstate".
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `-var 'foo=bar'` - Set a variable in the Terraform configuration. This
|
||
|
flag can be set multiple times.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `-var-file=foo` - Set variables in the Terraform configuration from
|
||
|
a file. If "terraform.tfvars" is present, it will be automatically
|
||
|
loaded if this flag is not specified.
