About:
TFLint is a linter for Terraform files that focuses on detecting errors and enforcing best practices. It can check for deprecated syntax, incorrect resource configurations, and provider-specific issues. This tool helps maintain code quality and consistency across Terraform projects.
Key Features:
  • Detects errors and hardcodes provider versions
  • Enforces Terraform best practices and style conventions
  • Extensible plugin system for custom rules
  • Supports multiple Terraform versions
Use Cases:
  • CI/CD pipeline integration for automated Terraform validation
  • Pre-commit hooks to catch issues before code review
  • Enforcing organizational Terraform standards across teams
Alternatives:
  • terraform validate – Built-in command checks syntax and internal consistency, while TFLint provides deeper linting and best practice enforcement
  • tfsec – Security-focused scanner, whereas TFLint focuses on general errors and best practices
