Terraform Style Guide

Generate and maintain Terraform code following HashiCorp's official style conventions and best practices.

Reference: HashiCorp Terraform Style Guide

Code Generation Strategy

When generating Terraform code:

1. Start with provider configuration and version constraints
2. Create data sources before dependent resources
3. Build resources in dependency order
4. Add outputs for key resource attributes
5. Use variables for all configurable values

File Organization

File	Purpose
terraform.tf	Terraform and provider version requirements
providers.tf	Provider configurations
main.tf	Primary resources and data sources
variables.tf	Input variable declarations (alphabetical)
outputs.tf	Output value declarations (alphabetical)
locals.tf	Local value declarations

Example Structure

# terraform.tf
terraform {
  required_version = ">= 1.7"

  required_providers {
    aws = {
      source  = "hashicorp/aws"
      version = "~> 5.0"
    }
  }
}

# variables.tf
variable "environment" {
  description = "Target deployment environment"
  type        = string

  validation {
    condition     = contains(["dev", "staging", "prod"], var.environment)
    error_message = "Environment must be dev, staging, or prod."
  }
}

# locals.tf
locals {
  common_tags = {
    Environment = var.environment
    ManagedBy   = "Terraform"
  }
}

# main.tf
resource "aws_vpc" "main" {
  cidr_block           = var.vpc_cidr
  enable_dns_hostnames = true

  tags = merge(local.common_tags, {
    Name = "${var.project_name}-${var.environment}-vpc"
  })
}

# outputs.tf
output "vpc_id" {
  description = "ID of the created VPC"
  value       = aws_vpc.main.id
}

Code Formatting

Indentation and Alignment

• Use two spaces per nesting level (no tabs)
• Align equals signs for consecutive arguments

resource "aws_instance" "web" {
  ami           = "ami-0c55b159cbfafe1f0"
  instance_type = "t2.micro"
  subnet_id     = "subnet-12345678"

  tags = {
    Name        = "web-server"
    Environment = "production"
  }
}
