asdf-terraform-build

Terraform plugin with go build for the asdf version manager

Motivation

I want to manage multiple versions of Terraform on my Apple Silicon Mac.

Terraform currently does not provide pre-built binaries for Apple Silicon. (see hashicorp/terraform#27257)

Also, asdf-hashicorp terraform plugin only supports binary installations. The same is true for tfenv.

Terraform provided by Homebrew supports Apple Silicon, but is not suitable for multiple version control.

That's why I created an asdf plugin that allows you to build Terraform from source and manage multiple versions.

⚠️ As Terraform begins offering pre-built binaries for Apple Silicon, this plugin will probably be archived.

$ asdf plugin add terraform-build https://github.com/tsub/asdf-terraform-build.git

$ asdf install terraform 1.0.0
$ asdf local terraform 1.0.0
$ terraform version
Terraform v1.0.0
on darwin_arm64

Read the asdf documentation for more details on how to use it.
