Automatic Terraform moved blocks
When refactoring a Terraform codebase, you often need to write moved blocks. This can be tedious. Let
tfautomv do it for you.
Why does this exist?
When you move a resource in your code, Terraform loses track of the resource's state. The next time you run Terraform, it will plan to delete the resource it has memory of and create the "new" resource it found in your refactored code.
tfautomv inspects the output of terraform plan, detects such
creation/deletion pairs and writes a moved block so that Terraform now knows
no deletion or creation is required.

movedblocks automatically for refactored code - Optionally doing a dry run
- Optionally showing a detailed analysis
