Custom path to terraform executable

[jonnyzzz]

I have no terraform installed in the OS. Instead, I have an sh script to call the official terraform container It works great from console, but it does not work from an action in the editor

Check Settings -> Tools -> Terraform -> Terraform path. Is that enough?

[jonnyzzz]

It may suggest something in run configuration. It was only a error in my case

@VladRassokhin for me I'm not able to actually change that path e.g. when I select a new path in the file explorer it just becomes terraform.exe, and the IDE always reports that the "Path to Terraform executable is incorrect".

Let me know if you'd like me to open a new issue, or if this issue is enough.

Hate to comment on old issues but @G-Rath I recently fixed this by manually typing out the full executable path in the Terraform Executable Path field.

@SurelyMario ah that seems to work for me - thanks!

Guess it's just the file selection process that's broken

Thats what I was looking for. Thanks :)

I have a similar issue with using brew on WSL. I use tfenv to manage the version of Terraform and it downloads and manages it via brew. Terraform works via the CLI, but built in commands for terraform get for example which is important for getting modules interfaces and such do not work in the IDE.
