Terraform-Associate-003 Leak Questions

This is the command that does not cause Terraform to refresh its state, as it only lists the resources that are currently managed by Terraform in the state file. The other commands will refresh the state file before performing their operations, unless you use the -refresh=false flag.

Terraform can manage resource dependencies implicitly or explicitly. Implicit dependencies are created when a resource references another resource or data source in its arguments. Terraform can infer the dependency from the reference and create or destroy the resources in the correct order. Explicit dependencies are created when you use the depends_on argument to specify that a resource depends on another resource or module. This is useful when Terraform cannot infer the dependency from the configuration or when you need to create a dependency for some reason outside of Terraform’s scope. References = : Create resource dependencies : Terraform Resource Dependencies Explained

Theterraform validatecommand is used to check for syntax errors and internal consistency within Terraform configurations, such as whether all required arguments are specified. It does not check for indentation styles, missing variable values (as variables might not be defined at validation time), or state file consistency with the current infrastructure. Therefore, none of the provided options are correct in the context of whatterraform validatereports.References= Terraform's official documentation details the purpose and function of theterraform validatecommand, specifying that it focuses on syntax and consistency checks within Terraform configurations themselves, not on external factors like the state file or infrastructure state. Direct references from the HashiCorp Terraform Associate (003) study materials to this specific detail were not found in the provided files.

This is how you specify a module’s version when publishing it to the public Terraform Module Registry, as it uses the tags from your version control system (such as GitHub or GitLab) to identify module versions. You need to use semantic versioning for your tags, such as v1.0.0.
