The terraform providers schema
command print detailed schemas for the providers used in the current configuration.
$ terraform providers schema [options]
The following flags are available:
-json
- Displays the schemas in a machine-readable JSON format. The -json
flag is required.
The output includes a format_version
key, which has a default value of "1.0"
. The semantics of this version are:
1.0
and 2.0
are backward-compatible. You should ignore any object properties with unrecognized names to remain forward-compatible with future minor versions.The following sections describe the JSON output format by example, using a pseudo-JSON notation. Important elements are described with comments, which are prefixed with //. To avoid excessive repetition, we've split the complete format into several discrete sub-objects, described under separate headers. References wrapped in angle brackets (like <block-representation>
) are placeholders which, in the real output, would be replaced by an instance of the specified sub-object.
The JSON output format consists of the following objects and sub-objects:
terraform providers schema -json
{
"format_version": "1.0",
// "provider_schemas" describes the provider schemas for all
// providers throughout the configuration tree.
"provider_schemas": {
// keys in this map are the provider type, such as "random"
"example_provider_name": {
// "provider" is the schema for the provider configuration
"provider": <schema-representation>,
// "resource_schemas" map the resource type name to the resource's schema
"resource_schemas": {
"example_resource_name": <schema-representation>
},
// "data_source_schemas" map the data source type name to the
// data source's schema
"data_source_schemas": {
"example_datasource_name": <schema-representation>,
},
// "ephemeral_resource_schemas" map the resource type name to the
// resource's schema
"ephemeral_resource_schemas": {
"example_resource_name": <schema-representation>,
},
// "functions" map the provider function name to the function definition
"functions": {
"example_function": <function-representation>
}
},
"example_provider_two": { … }
}
}
A schema representation pairs a provider or resource schema (in a "block") with that schema's version.
{
// "version" is the schema version, not the provider version
"version": int64,
"block": <block-representation>
}
A block representation contains "attributes" and "block_types" (which represent nested blocks).
{
// "attributes" describes any attributes that appear directly inside the
// block. Keys in this map are the attribute names.
"attributes": {
"example_attribute_name": {
// "type" is a representation of a type specification
// that the attribute's value must conform to.
"type": "string",
// "description" is an English-language description of
// the purpose and usage of the attribute.
"description": "string",
// "required", if set to true, specifies that an
// omitted or null value is not permitted.
"required": bool,
// "optional", if set to true, specifies that an
// omitted or null value is permitted.
"optional": bool,
// "computed", if set to true, indicates that the
// value comes from the provider rather than the
// configuration.
"computed": bool,
// "sensitive", if set to true, indicates that the
// attribute may contain sensitive information.
"sensitive": bool
},
},
// "block_types" describes any nested blocks that appear directly
// inside the block.
// Keys in this map are the names of the block_type.
"block_types": {
"example_block_name": {
// "nesting_mode" describes the nesting mode for the
// child block, and can be one of the following:
// single
// list
// set
// map
"nesting_mode": "list",
"block": <block-representation>,
// "min_items" and "max_items" set lower and upper
// limits on the number of child blocks allowed for
// the list and set modes. These are
// omitted for other modes.
"min_items": 1,
"max_items": 3
}
}
}
A function representation describes the definition of a function.
{
// "summary" is a shortened English-language description of
// the purpose of the function in Markdown.
"summary": "string",
// "description" is a longer English-language description of
// the purpose and usage of the function in Markdown.
"description": "string",
// "deprecation_message" when present signals that the function is deprecated
// and the message contains practitioner-facing actions for the deprecation.
"deprecation_message": "string",
// "return_type" is a representation of a type specification
// that the function returns.
"return_type": "string",
// "parameters" is an optional list of the positional parameters
// that the function accepts.
"parameters": [
<parameter-representation>,
// ...
],
// "variadic_parameter" is an optional representation of the
// additional arguments that the function accepts after those
// matching with the fixed parameters.
"variadic_parameter": <parameter-representation>
}
A parameter representation describes a parameter to a function.
{
// "name" is the internal name of the parameter
"name": "string",
// "description" is an optional English-language description of
// the purpose and usage of the parameter in Markdown.
"description": "string",
// "is_nullable" is true if null is acceptable value for the argument
"is_nullable": bool,
// "type" is a representation of a type specification
// that the parameter's value must conform to.
"type": "string"
