uses: huntridge-labs/argus/.github/actions/linter-terraform@1.12.2

Run Terraform formatting and validation checks.

Overview

This action validates Terraform files using terraform fmt, terraform validate, and optional TFLint. It uploads results as artifacts that can be aggregated by the linting summary action.

Usage

- name: Checkout code
  uses: actions/checkout@v6

- name: Run Terraform linting
  uses: huntridge-labs/argus/.github/actions/linter-terraform@1.12.2
  with:
    fail_on_issues: false
    terraform_version: 'latest'

Inputs

Input	Description	Required	Default
fail_on_issues	Fail the job if issues are found	No	false
fail_on_tool_error	Fail the job when the linter tool itself errors (a crash — argus exit code 2), independent of fail_on_issues. Tool errors are always surfaced in the job log, status table, and PR comment; this only makes them block.	No	false
paths	Paths to search for Terraform files (space-separated)	No	.
terraform_version	Terraform version to use	No	latest
run_tflint	Run TFLint in addition to fmt/validate	No	true

Outputs

Output	Description
issues_count	Total number of linting issues found
tool_status	Whether the linter tool ran cleanly: ok, or error when the tool itself crashed (argus exit code 2).
fmt_issues	Number of formatting issues
validate_issues	Number of validation issues
tflint_issues	Number of TFLint issues
