TIPS

Extracting variables assigned in Variable definitions

Specify −−extras=+{reference} and −−languages=+TerraformVariables to extract variables assigned in variables definitions (*.tfvars). The TerraformVariables parser extracts variables in *.tfvars files with variable kind with assigned role of Terraform language.

KNOWN BUGS

	•		The parser doesn't ignore strings inside a block comment (/* ... */).
	•		The parser doesn't extract variables defined with locals keyword.
