I run only on Azure. Nearly all my IAC is written in PowerShell uilizing the Azure Cli.
Terraform and yaml as well are so verbose and you have no clue whats going on from the local side of things.
How do debug your terraform markup locally. My guess is you can't.
- awslattery 5y agoThe console command [1], mixed with local variables, is quite handy for debugging locally. 1. https://www.terraform.io/docs/cli/commands/console.html https://www.terraform.io/docs/cli/commands/console.html
- x86_64Ubuntu 5y agoSeems as if people have very strong feelings about Terraform, but little actual experience using it.
- toyg 5y agoIt's not the easiest tool to grok, writing configuration files can be very verbose, and its opinions about a number of things can be very off-putting. I tried to "get into" TF many times and never actually fell in love. I like the idea, I like the cross-cloud approach, I just don't particularly like what the experience ends up being. This shit should be easier.
- httgp 5y agoBingo. While I see some valid complaints about Terraform in the comments, most of them seem to come from a place of not fully understanding how it works or the features it offers.
