Describe the user story
I want to build a drift detection tool using plan output. But in the API endpoint I can get only Terraform plain output.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add JSON plan output into API response and not just plain output.
Describe the drawbacks of your solution
- Maybe will depend on "SHOWFILE" and in somecases how it handled by each implementation
- Depending on how will be implemented (raw JSON or struct): manifest changes over TF versions.
Describe alternatives you've considered
- Changing output when a plan is executed with no PR number (and then getting JSON output from TerraformOutput)
- Using an intermediary to emit JSON (i.e. Redis to put/get output).
- Just avoid Atlantis and run terragrunt/terraform plan (of course I don't want this)
