GitHub Action
HashiCorp - Setup Terraform
This action sets up Terraform CLI in your GitHub Actions workflow by:
- Downloading a specific version of Terraform CLI and adding it to the
PATH
. - Configuring the Terraform CLI configuration file with a Terraform Cloud/Enterprise hostname and API token.
- Optionally installing a wrapper to wrap subsequent calls of the
terraform
binary and expose its STDOUT, STDERR, and exit code as outputs namedstdout
,stderr
, andexitcode
respectively.
This action can be run on ubuntu-latest
, windows-latest
, and macos-latest
GitHub Actions runners. When running on windows-latest
the shell should be set to Bash.
The default configuration installs the latest version of Terraform CLI and installs the wrapper to wrap subsequent calls to the terraform
binary.
steps:
- uses: hashicorp/setup-terraform@v1
A specific version of Terraform CLI can be installed.
steps:
- uses: hashicorp/setup-terraform@v1
with:
terraform_version: 0.12.24
Credentials for Terraform Cloud (app.terraform.io) can be configured.
steps:
- uses: hashicorp/setup-terraform@v1
with:
cli_config_credentials_token: ${{ secrets.TF_API_TOKEN }}
Credentials for Terraform Enterprise can be configured.
steps:
- uses: hashicorp/setup-terraform@v1
with:
cli_config_credentials_hostname: 'terraform.example.com'
cli_config_credentials_token: ${{ secrets.TF_API_TOKEN }}
The wrapper installation can be skipped.
steps:
- uses: hashicorp/setup-terraform@v1
with:
terraform_wrapper: false
Subsequent steps can access outputs when the wrapper is installed.
steps:
- uses: hashicorp/setup-terraform@v1
- run: terraform init
- id: plan
run: terraform plan -no-color
- run: echo ${{ steps.plan.outputs.stdout }}
- run: echo ${{ steps.plan.outputs.stderr }}
- run: echo ${{ steps.plan.outputs.exitcode }}
The outputs can be used in subsequent steps to comment on the pull request:
steps:
- uses: hashicorp/setup-terraform@v1
- run: terraform init
- id: plan
run: terraform plan -no-color
- uses: actions/[email protected]
if: github.event_name == 'pull_request'
env:
STDOUT: "```${{ steps.plan.outputs.stdout }}```"

issue_number: context.issue.number,
owner: context.repo.owner,
repo: context.repo.repo,
body: process.env.STDOUT
})
