terraform plan --help
terraform plan --help
Usage: terraform [global options] plan [options]
Generates a speculative execution plan, showing what actions Terraform
would take to apply the current configuration. This command will not
actually perform the planned actions.
You can optionally save the plan to a file, which you can then pass to
the "apply" command to perform exactly the actions described in the plan.
Plan Customization Options:
The following options customize how Terraform will produce its plan. You
can also use these options when you run "terraform apply" without passing
it a saved plan, in order to plan and apply in a single command.
-destroy Select the "destroy" planning mode, which creates a plan
to destroy all objects currently managed by this
Terraform configuration instead of the usual behavior.
-refresh-only Select the "refresh only" planning mode, which checks
whether remote objects still match the outcome of the
most recent Terraform apply but does not propose any
actions to undo any changes made outside of Terraform.
-refresh=false Skip checking for external changes to remote objects
while creating the plan. This can potentially make
planning faster, but at the expense of possibly planning
against a stale record of the remote system state.
-replace=resource Force replacement of a particular resource instance using
its resource address. If the plan would've normally
produced an update or no-op action for this instance,
Terraform will plan to replace it instead.
-target=resource Limit the planning operation to only the given module,
resource, or resource instance and all of its
dependencies. You can use this option multiple times to
include more than one object. This is for exceptional
use only.
-var 'foo=bar' Set a value for one of the input variables in the root
module of the configuration. Use this option more than
once to set more than one variable.
-var-file=filename Load variable values from the given file, in addition
to the default files terraform.tfvars and *.auto.tfvars.
Use this option more than once to include more than one
variables file.
Other Options:
-compact-warnings If Terraform produces any warnings that are not
accompanied by errors, shows them in a more compact form
that includes only the summary messages.
-detailed-exitcode Return detailed exit codes when the command exits. This
will change the meaning of exit codes to:
0 - Succeeded, diff is empty (no changes)
1 - Errored
2 - Succeeded, there is a diff
-input=true Ask for input for variables if not directly set.
-lock=false Don't hold a state lock during the operation. This is
dangerous if others might concurrently run commands
against the same workspace.
-lock-timeout=0s Duration to retry a state lock.
-no-color If specified, output won't contain any color.
-out=path Write a plan file to the given path. This can be used as
input to the "apply" command.
-parallelism=n Limit the number of concurrent operations. Defaults to 10.
-state=statefile A legacy option used for the local backend only. See the
local backend's documentation for more information.
