| description | The `terraform get` command is used to download and update modules. |
The terraform get command is used to download and update
modules.
Usage: terraform get [options] [dir]
The modules are downloaded into a local .terraform folder. This
folder should not be committed to version control.
If a module is already downloaded and the -update flag is not set,
Terraform will do nothing. As a result, it is safe (and fast) to run this
command multiple times.
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
-update- If specified, modules that are already downloaded will be checked for updates and the updates will be downloaded if present.
