# terraform-helper
Generate production-ready Terraform (HCL) configurations for AWS, GCP, and Azure cloud resources. Supports VPC networking, compute instances, databases, storage, IAM, Kubernetes clusters, load balancers, DNS, and CDN. Generates modular configurations with variables, outputs, state management, and follows HashiCorp best practices for code organization, naming conventions, and security hardening.
Commands
| Command | Description | |---------|-------------| | `resource` | Generate a Terraform resource configuration | | `module` | Create a reusable Terraform module | | `vpc` | Generate VPC/networking configuration | | `compute` | Generate compute instance (EC2/GCE/VM) config | | `database` | Generate managed database (RDS/CloudSQL/Azure SQL) config | | `storage` | Generate storage (S3/GCS/Blob) configuration | | `iam` | Generate IAM roles, policies, and permissions | | `k8s` | Generate managed Kubernetes cluster config | | `backend` | Generate remote state backend configuration | | `variables` | Generate variables.tf and terraform.tfvars templates |

Use Cases
- Generate Terraform resource definitions for common cloud infrastructure
- Look up Terraform provider documentation and resource configuration syntax
- Create Terraform modules with proper variable and output definitions
- Debug Terraform plan and apply errors with guided troubleshooting
- Set up Terraform projects with proper provider, backend, and variable configuration
Pros & Cons
Pros
- +Quick trigger keywords — provider, resource, name, region for fast invocation
- +Helps with the most common Terraform tasks — resource creation and configuration
- +Security verified with no dangerous commands
Cons
- -Very minimal content — essentially just trigger keywords with no reference material
- -No embedded provider documentation or resource type catalogs
