Hello,
I would like to use a set a variable and then reference it further down in a bash script inside a terraform template. The problem is that when I write ${variable}, terraform is going to search for its value and try to render it accordingly. But I’m sometimes interested only in the inner logic of bash.
Any ideas?
In Terraform’s template syntax you can write $${ (double dollar sign) in order to escape a literal ${ that would otherwise introduce a template sequence. To refer to bash variable variable you can write $${variable}, for example.
The same applies to the template directive syntax: you can generate a literal %{ by writing %%{ in the template.
