Command: state replace-provider
The terraform state replace-provider command is used to replace the provider
for resources in a Terraform state.
Usage
Usage: terraform state replace-provider [options] FROM_PROVIDER_FQN TO_PROVIDER_FQN
This command will update all resources using the "from" provider, setting the provider to the specified "to" provider. This allows changing the source of a provider which currently has resources in state.
This command will output a backup copy of the state prior to saving any changes. The backup cannot be disabled. Due to the destructive nature of this command, backups are required.
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
-
-auto-approve- Skip interactive approval. -
-backup=path- Path where Terraform should write the backup for the original state. This can't be disabled. If not set, Terraform will write it to the same path as the statefile with a ".backup" extension. -
-lock=true- Lock the state files when locking is supported. -
-lock-timeout=0s- Duration to retry a state lock. -
-state=path- Path to the source state file to read from. Defaults to the configured backend, or "terraform.tfstate".
Example
The example below replaces the hashicorp/aws provider with a fork by acme, hosted at a private registry at registry.acme.corp:
$ terraform state replace-provider hashicorp/aws registry.acme.corp/acme/aws
