terraform-linters/tflint v0.23.0

on GitHub

0.23.0 (2021-01-03)

This release changes the AWS rules implementation into the AWS ruleset plugin. As a result, there are breaking changes to the config for deep checking. If you are using this feature, please declare the plugin settings in .tflint.hcl as follows. See the tflint-ruleset-aws plugin configurations for details.

plugin "aws" {
  enabled = true
  deep_check = true

  // Write credentials here...
}

For backward compatibility, The AWS ruleset plugin is bundled with the binary. So you can still use AWS rules without installing the plugin separetely. The plugin is automatically enabled if there are AWS resources in your Terraform configuration, but it can also be turned on explicitly. See #1009 for details.
