v0.44.0

[wata727]

0.44.0 (2022-12-26)

This release added support for --chdir and --recursive flags. Mostly loader related improvements, including some refactorings.

The directory argument (e.g. tflint dir) has been deprecated. It works in v0.44 but will be removed in a future version. We recommend migrating to tflint --chdir=dir.

The --recursive flag is an experimental feature. It may not suit all workflows. We may change behavior frequently to keep improving.

Enhancements

• #1612: cmd: Add --chdir option (@wata727)
  • This change deprecates the directory argument. If you are using tflint dir, you should migrate to tflint --chdir=dir. In most cases the directory argument can be replaced with --chdir.
  • The directory argument works in v0.44 but will be removed in a future version.
• #1622 #1629: cmd: Add --recursive option (@wata727 @bendrucker)
  • The --recursive option is an experimental feature. Behavior may change in future versions.
• #1626: plugin: Add support for GetOriginalwd API (@wata727)
  • GetOriginalwd() is available from SDK v0.15.
• #1630: Bump tflint-plugin-sdk to v0.15.0 (@wata727)
• #1631: Bump bundled terraform ruleset to v0.2.2 (@wata727)

Changes

• #1610: terraform: Move loader to under the terraform package (@wata727)
  • Changed the directory for autoloading value files when using a directory argument. Previously, terraform.tfvars and *.auto.tfvars in the current directory were loaded, but since v0.44, value files in the argument directory are loaded.
  • In any case, the directory argument is deprecated and we recommend migrating to --chdir.
