codeclimate-tflint is a Code Climate engine that wraps TFLint. You can run it on your command line using the Code Climate CLI, or on our hosted analysis platform.

TFLint is a pluggable Terraform Linter.

This engine is based on TFLint v0.43.0

1. If you haven't already, install the Code Climate CLI.
2. Run codeclimate engines:enable tflint. This command both installs the engine and enables it in your .codeclimate.yml file.
3. You're ready to analyze! Browse into your project's folder and run codeclimate analyze.

By default, TFLint will look for a .tflint.hcl file in the root of your project. Optionally configure Code Climate to look at a different path:

plugins:
  tflint:
    enabled: true
    config:
      config: optional/path/to/.tflint.hcl

In the same way you can set all the options supported by TFLint (more details here):

# .codeclimate.yml
plugins:
  tflint:
    enabled: true
    config:
      config: "" # --config=FILE
      ignore_module: [ # --ignore-module=SOURCE
        "..."
      ]
      enable_rule: [ # --enable-rule=RULE_NAME
        "..."
      ]
      disable_rule: [ # --disable-rule=RULE_NAME
        "..."
      ]
      only: [ # --only=RULE_NAME
        "..."
      ]
      enable_plugin: [ # --enable-plugin=PLUGIN_NAME
        "..."
      ]
      var_file: "" # --var-file=FILE
      var: [ # --var='foo=bar'
        "..."
      ]
      module: true # --module
