Question 1

How do I install vim-terraform-completion with Vim-Plug?

Accepted Answer

Add 'Plug juliosueiras/vim-terraform-completion' to your .vimrc along with required dependencies like vim-terraform and syntastic, then run :PlugInstall. The README provides a minimal configuration example for setup.

Question 2

Does vim-terraform-completion support Terraform 0.12 and above?

Accepted Answer

The plugin aims to support newer Terraform versions, but the README badge shows 0.11.7; check the changelog and provider versions docs for updates. It uses version-based completion to adapt to different releases.

Question 3

vim-terraform-completion or hashicorp/tf-lsp for Vim?

Accepted Answer

vim-terraform-completion offers deeper Vim integration with custom linting and completion, while tf-lsp uses Language Server Protocol for broader editor support. Choose based on whether you prefer native Vim workflows or LSP-based flexibility.

Question 4

How to set up version-based completion for AWS provider?

Accepted Answer

Create a .tfcompleterc file in your project directory with content like 'aws=3.0.0', referencing the provider versions documentation. The plugin will use this to provide accurate AWS completions.

Question 5

Why is my vim-terraform-completion linting slow?

Accepted Answer

Slow linting may occur if deep tflint checks are enabled, as noted in the README. Adjust syntastic or neomake settings to limit checks or disable tflint for better performance.

Question 6

Can I use vim-terraform-completion with community Terraform providers?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but it requires manual configuration: add the provider name and version to .tfcompleterc, as described in the community provider support section, though completion might be limited for unstable providers.
