Terraform version check (tfvc) is a reporting tool to identify available updates for providers and modules referenced in your Terraform code. It provides clear warning/failure output and resolution guidance for any issues it detects.

NOTE: This project is currently under heavy development and things WILL break (probably)

Install with Homebrew on MacOS or Linux.

brew install tfverch/tfvc/tfvc

Install with Go

go install github.com/tfverch/tfvc@latest

tfvc will scan the specified directories and report on the configuration of providers and module calls.

The exit status will be non-zero if tfvc finds problems, otherwise the exit status will be zero.

tfvc .

The following parameters are available.

As an alternative to installing and running tfvc on your system, you can run tfvc in a Docker container, for example:

docker run --rm -it -v "$(pwd):/src" tfverch/tfvc /src

While tools such as dependabot and renovate provide fully automate dependency updates, I needed something with a lighter touch. tfvc aims to be a simple reporting tool that can be run either locally, or as part of a CI/CD pipeline, to give you feedback on any modules or providers which have updates available.

This project started as a fork of the github.com/keilerkonzept/terraform-module-versions project. However, given the changes that I needed to make to add the features that I wanted to, I ended up migrating to this repo. Still, shout out to keilerkonzept for their work.
