Path expansion for terraform binaries broken about vscode-terraform HOT 5 CLOSED

This is also broken for me on Windows but however I specify the binary path, it doesn't work.

from vscode-terraform.

@IronFarm what is the path to Terraform for you and what is your configuration? Can you please post what does and doesn't work exactly?

How embarrassing, it appears to work now. It seems you have to quit and reopen VS Code for the settings to update.

However, it claims to successfully run fmt but the file doesn't change.

It looks like it's reading from stdin but I can't tell how it's saving the formatted file.

I don't really know what to do with this issue as it seems to be working again, please feel free to reopen if the issue persists.

Thanks for using my plugin, sorry that I couldn't be of more help.

I can still reproduce this on 1.3.12 if the terraform binary is not in my PATH (unless I skimmed too quickly, the runner helper introduced (1d4e52b) searches the PATH, but doesn't do path expansion for ~).

That said, since my binary is actually in my PATH, that change fixed my use-case so thanks 😃 .
