Example

StyleChecker

    from terracheck.io.HclCheckerReader import HclCheckerReader
    from terracheck.checker.StyleChecker import StyleChecker

    # Read files in a HCL folder
    hcl_checker_reader = HclCheckerReader()
    hcl_checker_reader.read("/hcl/folder/path")

    # Check style good practices
    style_checker = StyleChecker()
    style_checker.check(hcl_checker_reader.extract)
    
    style_report = style_checker.report

    style_metadata = style_checker.metadata

An output example :

    [DASH_IN_NAME]: Name of variable named 'gcp-folder_parent_id' contains dash ('-'). Shoud be underscores ('_').
    [DASH_IN_NAME]: Name of data 'google_storage_bucket' 'google-storage_bucket' contains dash ('-'). Shoud be underscores ('_').
    [DASH_IN_NAME]: Name of resource 'google_storage_bucket' 'google-storage_bucket' contains dash ('-'). Shoud be underscores ('_').
    [DASH_IN_NAME]: Name of output named 'my-output' contains dash ('-'). Shoud be underscores ('_').
    [NAME_IS_RESOURCE]: Resource 'google_storage_bucket' is named 'google_storage_bucket'. Chose a name different than the resource name.
    [FILE_PURPOSE]: Required_providers 'google' should be declared in file versions.tf not in version.tf.
    [FILE_PURPOSE]: Variable 'gcp-folder_parent_id' should be declared in file variables.tf not in hcl_2.tf.
    [FILE_PURPOSE]: Output 'my-output' should be declared in file outputs.tf not in hcl_1.tf.
    [FILE_PURPOSE]: Required_providers 'google-beta' should be declared in file versions.tf not in variables.tf.
    [FILE_PURPOSE]: Required_providers 'gitlab' should be declared in file versions.tf not in variables.tf.
    [FILE_PURPOSE]: Provider 'gitlab' should be declared in file versions.tf not in variables.tf.
    [OUTPUT_EXPOSURE]: Output 'cycling_output' references a variable as value. It should not.
    [NAME_UNIQUENESS]: Resource 'google_bigquery_dataset' is unique, and thus should be named 'main', not 'dataset'.
    [NAME_UNIQUENESS]: Resource 'google_service_account' is unique, and thus should be named 'main', not 'bqowner'.

StructureChecker

    from terracheck.io.HclCheckerReader import HclCheckerReader

    structure_checker = StructureChecker()

    structure_checker.check("/hcl/folder/path")

    structure_report = structure_checker.report

    structure_metadata = structure_checker.metadata

With respect to the following hcl folder structure:

demo_hcl_folder
   | google-hcl_1.tf
   | hcl_2-org.tf
   | outputs.tf
   | variables.tf
   | version.tf

and the following StructureChecker config:

mandatory_files:
  version:
    - "versions.tf"
  readme:
    - "README.MD"
    - "README.md"

filenames_nomenclature:
  startswith: "google"
  endswith: "org"
  contains: "-"

the output is :

    [MISSING_FILE]: File 'version' is missing in your terraform folder. Available denominations : ['versions.tf'].
    [MISSING_FILE]: File 'readme' is missing in your terraform folder. Available denominations : ['README.MD', 'README.md'].
    [FILENAME_CONSTRAINT]: File 'google-hcl_1.tf' does not respect constraint 'endswith org'.
    [FILENAME_CONSTRAINT]: File 'version.tf' does not respect constraint 'startswith google'.
    [FILENAME_CONSTRAINT]: File 'version.tf' does not respect constraint 'endswith org'.
    [FILENAME_CONSTRAINT]: File 'version.tf' does not respect constraint 'contains -'.
    [FILENAME_CONSTRAINT]: File 'hcl_2-org.tf' does not respect constraint 'startswith google'.
    [FILENAME_CONSTRAINT]: File 'hcl_2-org.tf' does not respect constraint 'endswith org'.
