v12.0.7...v12.0.8

Fixed

• #360 Early-passing of variables depends on tofu (with its early-static-evaluation) or terraform tool usage (thank you, @joe-dematteo).

Update major version tag

v12.0.7

v12.0.6...v12.0.7

Fixed

• #354 Trigger push to default branch without associated PR has a fallback of 0 (thank you, @fulgas).

v12.0.6

v12.0.5...v12.0.6

Added

• #357 show-args parameter enables rendering of CLI arguments in the PR comment's header which wouldn't normally be part of the last command (thank you, @garysassano).
  E.g., The default value of workspace ensures that arg-workspace input is always rendered, even for plan or apply.
  • This complements the existing hide-args parameter for the inverse function, and overrides in case of conflict.
  • Both show-args and hide-args accept comma-separated list of inputs, such as "detailed-exitcode,lock,out".

Fixed

• #356 Reference workflow job ID from multiple chained matrices (thank you, @silnels-greenlane).

v12.0.5

v12.0.4...v12.0.5

Note

While this is a patch release, existing PRs should be updated for consistent behaviour with plan files.

Added

• Pass in multiple comma-separated -backend-config values (thank you, @fulgas) (#352).
  E.g., arg-backend-config: encrypt=true,bucket="bucket-name",dynamodb_table="table-name".
  • This is in addition to existing support for -var, -target, and -replace comma-separated values.

Improved

• Portion of the plan file artifact name is hashed with MD5 for concise, fixed-length string (#352).
  • This is to address GitHub's 256 character limit for artifact naming.
  • As a bonus, this also masks potentially sensitive values. E.g., from arg-var input.
• Documentation to include "To-Do" tasks (#352).
• Documentation to include TF_CLI_ARGS workaround (thank you, @fulgas) (#353).
• Rendering of standard error (stderr) and standard output (stdout) combination (#353).
• Rendering of fmt format output with diff syntax highlighting (#353).

To-do

• Handling of inputs which contain space(s) (e.g., working-directory: "path to/directory").
• Handling of comma-separated inputs which contain comma(s) (e.g., arg-var: token=1,2,3)—use TF_CLI_ARGS workaround.

v12.0.4

v12.0.3...v12.0.4

Fixed

• Remove ' single quotes from surrounding CLI arguments—likely to fail on paths which include whitespace (thank you, @Setthawut-Peace) (#349).
• Render plan output when var-file or var is supplied (#349).
• Overzealous hide-args input—for example, "var" used to hide "var-file" as well (#349).
• Reorder exit code output order to match order of command operations (#348).

v12.0.3

v12.0.2...v12.0.3

Improved

• Consistent naming within README documentation (thanks to @garysassano).

Fixed

• Interpolation of arg-workspace input within plan file artifact name (thanks to @garysassano).

v12.0.2

v12.0.1...v12.0.2

Fixed

• Prioritize standard error stderr over standard output stdout, if present.
• Handling extremely large outputs gracefully when it exceeds GitHub's character limits.
• Explicit unzip package requirement.
• Expand argument parameters for legibility.

v12.0.1

v12.0.0...v12.0.1

Added

• Count of diff lines in the output.

Improved

• Reorder above-the-fold content in the README.
  • Consistent use of arguments throughout workflow examples.
• Use -json for diff command comparison of plan files with plan-parity enabled.
  • Reveal diff command output during plan-parity comparison.
• Append '…' ellipsis to truncated plan or diff outputs if exceeding character limit.

Fixed

• Handling of plan files which exceed GitHub's character limit.
• Include stderr within console output of the workflow run log.
• Exclude -detailed-exitcode argument from plan command during plan-parity comparison.

v12 Enhanced Commands, Outputs and Examples

v11.4.6...v12.0.0

v12 Enhanced Commands, Outputs and Examples

Highlights (view blog)

• Around 55% reduction in codebase by consolidating action.yml within Bash, lowering the barrier to entry for contributors.
• Configurable rendering of command inputs and outputs without wrapper script (e.g., hide-args from PR comment).
• Streamlined documentation with a focus on workflow examples for common use-cases.

Breaking

• In/output parameters have been renamed:
  • All _ underscores are replaced with - hyphens.
  • working-directory is added as an alias to arg-chdir.
  • arg_command is renamed to command.
  • For the full list, view the parameters.
• To minimize dependencies, the following have been removed:
  • Tool installation via tenv (replacement).
  • Caching integration (replacement).

---

Added

• gh GitHub CLI integration for consistent interoperability with GitHub's REST API.
• Link to view workflow log with the precise step where TF-via-PR was executed.
• Pass repeated arguments as comma-separated values (e.g., arg-var: key1=value1,key2=value2).
• Contextual workflow outputs, like plan file artifact ID and URL, as well as truncated results from CLI response.

Updated

• Order of command execution to: fmt* > init > workspace* > validate* > plan/apply (* optional).
• Workflow examples with recommendations, including cron-scheduled configuration drift checks.
• comment-pr default from "recreate" to "update" for its revision history.
• format default from "true" to "false" for explicit opt-in of the command, as done with validate.

Removed

• actions/cache dependency, as out-of-scope.
• actions/github-script dependecy, as superseded by gh GitHub CLI.
• tenv dependency, as replaced by 3rd parties.

Fixed

• Upon failure, output the error message directly instead of the entire command output.
• Upon exceeding character limit, gracefully handle truncation of command output.
• Handling of multiline strings with associated quoting.

Secured

• Support for v12 and after.
