terraform init --help Usage: terraform [global options] init [options] Initialize a new or existing Terraform working directory by creating initial files, loading any remote state, downloading modules, etc. This is the first command that should be run for any new or existing Terraform configuration per machine. This sets up all the local data necessary to run Terraform that is typically not committed to version control. This command is always safe to run multiple times. Though subsequent runs may give errors, this command will never delete your configuration or state. Even so, if you have important information, please back it up prior to running this command, just in case. Options: -backend=false Disable backend or Terraform Cloud initialization for this configuration and use what what was previously initialized instead. aliases: -cloud=false -backend-config=path Configuration to be merged with what is in the configuration file's 'backend' block. This can be either a path to an HCL file with key/value assignments (same format as terraform.tfvars) or a 'key=value' format, and can be specified multiple times. The backend type must be in the configuration itself.
-force-copy Suppress prompts about copying state data when
initializating a new state backend. This is
equivalent to providing a "yes" to all confirmation
prompts.
-from-module=SOURCE Copy the contents of the given module into the target
directory before initialization.
-get=false Disable downloading modules for this configuration.
-input=false Disable interactive prompts. Note that some actions may
require interactive prompts and will error if input is
disabled.
-lock=false Don't hold a state lock during backend migration.
This is dangerous if others might concurrently run
commands against the same workspace.
-lock-timeout=0s Duration to retry a state lock.
-no-color If specified, output won't contain any color.
-plugin-dir Directory containing plugin binaries. This overrides all
default search paths for plugins, and prevents the
automatic installation of plugins. This flag can be used
multiple times.
-reconfigure Reconfigure a backend, ignoring any saved
configuration.
-migrate-state Reconfigure a backend, and attempt to migrate any
existing state.
-upgrade Install the latest module and provider versions
allowed within configured constraints, overriding the
default behavior of selecting exactly the version
recorded in the dependency lockfile.
-lockfile=MODE Set a dependency lockfile mode.
Currently only "readonly" is valid.
-ignore-remote-version A rare option used for Terraform Cloud and the remote backend
only. Set this to ignore checking that the local and remote
Terraform versions use compatible state representations, making
an operation proceed even when there is a potential mismatch.
See the documentation on configuring Terraform with
Terraform Cloud for more information.
