The cloud backend (and remote before it) previously expected a TFC workspace's `terraform-version` attribute to be either the magic string `"latest"` or an explicit semver value. But a workspace might have a version constraint instead (like `~> 1.1.0`), in which case the version check would blow up. This commit checks whether `terraform-version` is a valid version constraint before erroring out, and if so, returns success if the local version meets the constraint. Because it's not practical to deeply introspect the slice of version space defined by a constraint, this check is slightly less robust than the version comparisons below it: - It can give a false OK on open-ended constraints like `>= 1.1.0`. Say you're running 1.3.0, it changed the state format, and the TFE instance admin has not yet added any 1.3.x Terraform versions; your workspace will now break. - It will give a false not-OK when using different minor versions within a range that we know to be compatible, e.g. remote constraint of `~> 0.15.0` and local version of 1.1.0. - This would be totally useless with the pre-0.14 versions of Terraform, where patch releases could change state format... but we're not going back in time to add this feature to them anyway. Still, in the most common likely case (`~> x.y.z`), it'll complain at you (with an error you can choose to override) if you're not using the same minor version, and that seems proportionate, useful, and expected. |

Terraform is a tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure safely and efficiently. Terraform can manage existing and popular service providers as well as custom in-house solutions.
The key features of Terraform are:
-
Infrastructure as Code: Infrastructure is described using a high-level configuration syntax. This allows a blueprint of your datacenter to be versioned and treated as you would any other code. Additionally, infrastructure can be shared and re-used.
-
Execution Plans: Terraform has a "planning" step where it generates an execution plan. The execution plan shows what Terraform will do when you call apply. This lets you avoid any surprises when Terraform manipulates infrastructure.
-
Resource Graph: Terraform builds a graph of all your resources, and parallelizes the creation and modification of any non-dependent resources. Because of this, Terraform builds infrastructure as efficiently as possible, and operators get insight into dependencies in their infrastructure.
-
Change Automation: Complex changesets can be applied to your infrastructure with minimal human interaction. With the previously mentioned execution plan and resource graph, you know exactly what Terraform will change and in what order, avoiding many possible human errors.
For more information, see the introduction section of the Terraform website.
Getting Started & Documentation
Documentation is available on the Terraform website:
If you're new to Terraform and want to get started creating infrastructure, please check out our Getting Started guides on HashiCorp's learning platform. There are also additional guides to continue your learning.
Show off your Terraform knowledge by passing a certification exam. Visit the certification page for information about exams and find study materials on HashiCorp's learning platform.
Developing Terraform
This repository contains only Terraform core, which includes the command line interface and the main graph engine. Providers are implemented as plugins, and Terraform can automatically download providers that are published on the Terraform Registry. HashiCorp develops some providers, and others are developed by other organizations. For more information, see Extending Terraform.
To learn more about compiling Terraform and contributing suggested changes, please refer to the contributing guide.
