Configuration

tfcmt provides the good default configuration and the configuration file is optional, but you can customize the configuration with a configuration file.

Configuration File Path

When running tfcmt, you can specify the configuration path via --config option (if it's omitted, the configuration file {.,}tfcmt.y{,a}ml is searched from the current directory to the root directory). Configuration file is optional. If --config option isn't used and the configuration file isn't found, tfcmt works with the default configuration.

Template Engine

The template is rendered with Go's template.

Template variables

Placeholder	Usage
`{{ .Result }}`	Matched result by parsing like `Plan: 1 to add` or `No changes`
`{{ .ChangedResult }}`
`{{ .ChangeOutsideTerraform }}`
`{{ .Warning }}`
`{{ .Link }}`	The link of the build page on CI
`{{ .Vars }}`	The variables which are passed by `-var` option
`{{ .Stdout }}`	The standard output of terraform command
`{{ .Stderr }}`	The standard error output of terraform command
`{{ .CombinedOutput }}`	The output of terraform command
`{{ .ExitCode }}`	The exit code of terraform command
`{{ .HasDestroy }}`	Whether there are destroyed resources
`{{ .ErrorMessages }}`	a list of error messages which occur in tfcmt
`{{ .CreatedResources }}`	a list of created resource paths. This variable can be used at only plan
`{{ .UpdatedResources }}`	a list of updated resource paths. This variable can be used at only plan
`{{ .DeletedResources }}`	a list of deleted resource paths. This variable can be used at only plan
`{{ .ReplacedResources }}`	a list of deleted resource paths. This variable can be used at only plan
`{{ .MovedResources }}`	a list of moved resource paths. This variable can be used at only plan
`{{ .ImportedResources }}`	a list of imported resources (`{"Before": "resource path", "After": "resource path"}`). This variable can be used at only plan

Template Functions

In the template, the sprig template functions can be used. And the following functions can be used.

avoidHTMLEscape
wrapCode

avoidHTMLEscape prevents the text from being HTML escaped.

wrapCode wraps a test with ``` or <pre><code>. If the text includes ```, the text wraps with <pre><code>, otherwise the text wraps with ``` and the text isn't HTML escaped.

wrapCode omits too long text. ref. https://github.com/suzuki-shunsuke/tfcmt/releases/tag/v3.1.0
