Hi @jrobison-sb, Thank you for your proposal.
Yes, the lock file management is very annoying due to the current technical limitation of the Terraform core and registry.
The current workaround is https://github.com/minamijoyo/tfupdate/issues/32 The root cause of this problem is described in the upstream issue https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/27264
In short, without support for providing h1 hashes in the Terraform registry, we need to reimplement a lot of terraform internals and it would be hard to support multiple terraform versions in a stable way.
Having that said, I agree with that it would be great if the tfupdate updates not only version constraints, but also lock files, so I keep this issue open as a feature request.
Thanks!
The tfupdate v0.7.0 introduced a new tfupdate lock command. For details, see https://github.com/minamijoyo/tfupdate/pull/90
Terraform 0.14 and higher uses
.terraform.lock.hcl
files with a hash of each provider/platform to be used. It would be nice if tfupdate was able to auto-update these lock files when upgrading providers. For example:And this would do what tfupdate already does, and it would also do the equivalent of
terraform providers lock -platform=darwin_amd64 -platform=linux_amd64
and recursively update all the lockfiles.
