Action Summary

The aws-terraform-action GitHub Action is a comprehensive CI/CD solution for automating the management of Terraform workflows in AWS environments.

This action simplifies infrastructure provisioning and ensures compliance, helping teams maintain consistent and secure Terraform practices.

What’s Changed

✨ New Feature: Provider & Plugin Caching

Added caching support to significantly speed up repeated runs.

New Input

InputDefaultDescription
cache_pluginstrueCache Terraform providers and TFLint plugins

How it works

  • Terraform providers — cached to ~/.terraform.d/plugin-cache via TF_PLUGIN_CACHE_DIR, keyed on .terraform.lock.hcl hashes
  • TFLint plugins — cached to ~/.tflint.d/plugins, keyed on .tflint.hcl hashes
  • Both caches use runner.os in the key for correct cross-platform isolation

Usage

- uses: CloudNinjaDev/aws-terraform-action@v2.0.0
  with:
    cache_plugins: 'true'   # default — set to 'false' to disable
