Clean Terraform workspace before executing `terraform init` in the `atmos.Component` template function @aknysh (#775)
what
- Clean Terraform workspace before executing
terraform init
in theatmos.Component
template function
why
When using multiple backends for the same component (e.g. separate backends per tenant or account), and if an Atmos command was executed that selected a Terraform workspace, Terraform will prompt the user to select one of the following workspaces:
1. default
2. <the previously used workspace>
The prompt forces the user to always make a selection (which is error-prone), and also makes it complicated when running on CI/CD.
This PR adds the logic that deletes the .terraform/environment
file from the component directory before executing terraform init
when executing the atmos.Component
template function. It allows executing the atmos.Component
function for a component in different Terraform workspaces without Terraform asking to select a workspace. The .terraform/environment
file contains the name of the currently selected workspace, helping Terraform identify the active workspace context for managing your infrastructure.
