Usage: terraform [global options] validate [options]
Validate the configuration files in a directory, referring only to the
configuration and not accessing any remote services such as remote state,
provider APIs, etc.
Validate runs checks that verify whether a configuration is syntactically
valid and internally consistent, regardless of any provided variables or
existing state. It is thus primarily useful for general verification of
reusable modules, including correctness of attribute names and value types.
It is safe to run this command automatically, for example as a post-save
check in a text editor or as a test step for a re-usable module in a CI
system.
Validation requires an initialized working directory with any referenced
plugins and modules installed. To initialize a working directory for
validation without accessing any configured remote backend, use:
terraform init -backend=false
To verify configuration in the context of a particular run (a particular
target workspace, input variable values, etc), use the 'terraform plan'
command instead, which includes an implied validation check.
Options:
-json Produce output in a machine-readable JSON format, suitable for
use in text editor integrations and other automated systems.
Always disables color.
-no-color If specified, output won't contain any color.
