`tflocal` - Terraform with LocalStack

This package provides tflocal - a small wrapper script to run Terraform against LocalStack.

Prerequisites

Python 3.x
pip
terraform

How it works

The script uses the Terraform Override mechanism and creates a temporary file localstack_providers_override.tf to configure the endpoints for the AWS provider section. The endpoints for all services are configured to point to the LocalStack API (http://localhost:4566 by default).

Installation

The tflocal command line interface can be installed via pip:

pip install terraform-local

Configurations

The following environment variables can be configured:

TF_CMD: Terraform command to call (default: terraform)
LOCALSTACK_HOSTNAME: host name of the target LocalStack instance
EDGE_PORT: port number of the target LocalStack instance
S3_HOSTNAME: special hostname to be used to connect to LocalStack S3 (default: s3.localhost.localstack.cloud)
USE_EXEC: whether to use os.exec instead of subprocess.Popen (try using this in case of I/O issues)
<SERVICE>_ENDPOINT: setting a custom service endpoint, e.g., COGNITO_IDP_ENDPOINT=http://example.com
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: the AWS region to use (default: us-east-1, or determined from local credentials if boto3 is installed)

Usage

The tflocal command has the same usage as the terraform command. For detailed usage, please refer to the man pages of terraform --help.
