Moving terraform-docs/plugin-sdk standalone module to in-tree, because
maintaining both of them, specifically if anything needs to be added to
Config, or terraform will required dual effort on both repository. As
such now everything is consolidated under one repository. Example usage
for plugin developer after this move is as follow:
```go
package main
import (
_ "embed" //nolint
"github.com/terraform-docs/terraform-docs/plugin"
"github.com/terraform-docs/terraform-docs/print"
"github.com/terraform-docs/terraform-docs/template"
"github.com/terraform-docs/terraform-docs/terraform"
)
func main() {
plugin.Serve(&plugin.ServeOpts{
Name: "template",
Version: "0.1.0",
Printer: printer,
})
}
//go:embed sections.tmpl
var tplCustom []byte
// Print the custom format template. You have all the flexibility to generate
// the output however you choose to.
func printer(config *print.Config, module *terraform.Module) (string, error) {
tpl := template.New(config,
&template.Item{Name: "custom", Text: string(tplCustom)},
)
rendered, err := tpl.Render("custom", module)
if err != nil {
return "", err
}
return rendered, nil
}
```

Add one extra special variable the `content`:
- `{{ .Module }}`
As opposed to the other variables, which are generated sections based on
a selected formatter, the `{{ .Module }}` variable is just a `struct`
representing a Terraform module.
It can be used to build highly complex and highly customized content:
```yaml
content: |-
## Resources
{{ range .Module.Resources }}
- {{ .GetMode }}.{{ .Spec }} ({{ .Position.Filename }}#{{ .Position.Line }})
{{- end }}
```

Up to now there was only one way to enable recursive execution and that
was with `--recursive` CLI flag. This enables the same behavior but
within config file (i.e. `.terraform-docs.yml`)
Example:
```yaml
recursive:
enabled: false
path: modules
```

Considering the file strucutre below of main module and its submodules,
now it is possible to generate documentation for them main and all its
submodules in one execution, with `--recursive` flag.
Note that generating documentation recursively is allowed only with
`--output-file` set.
Path to find submodules can be configured with `--recursive-path`
(defaults to `modules`).
Each submodule can also have their own `.terraform-docs.yml` confi file,
to override configuration from root module.

If a code block (surrounded by triple backticks) are indented, in other
words the code block is placed inside ordered or unordered list, the
closing backticks of codeblock should honor the original indentation
properly.

The updated order of trying to look up for .terraform-docs.yml config
file, now, is:
1. root of module directory
2. `.config/` folder at root of module directory
3. current directory
4. `.config/` folder at current directory
5. `$HOME/.tfdocs.d/`

When passing `--output-template` as CLI flag, `\n` is not processed as
line break rather than literal strings, which caused a misleading error
of "value of '--output-template' should contain at least 3 lines".

New flag, `--lockfile`, is added to control whether ignore reading
.terraform.lock.hcl file in an attempt to extract the exact version of
provider being used or not. Default is true.
If set to true, exact version of provider available in lock file at the
time of execution will be extracted. If set to false, the version in .tf
file will be used (either exact, or a constrained version: >=, ~>, ...)

New psuedo section `all` is added and can be used to show or hide _all_
sections. This can be used as a replacement for, now, deprecated and
removed `--show-all` and `--hide-all` flags.

In v0.13.0 flags `--sort-by-required` and `--sort-by-type` have been
deprecated in favor of `--sort-by required` and `--sort-by type`
respectively. And they are completely being removed now (two releases
after original announcement)

As part of this normalization the following is made sure:
- leading `v` is shown in `-v, --version` and `version` command
- commit hash is shown in `-v, --version` and `version` command
- build date is removed
- version core (without pre-release) is used for constraint comparison

This is to control the generated HTML tags inside markdown output. If
set to false no html tags (e.g. `<br>`, `<pre>`) will be generated. And
as a workaround the multi-line codeblock will be converted to single
line with linebreak converted to `<SPACE>`.
For example:
```
{
"bar": {
"bar": "bar",
"foo": "bar"
},
"buzz": [
"fizz",
"buzz"
],
"fizz": []
}
```
will be converted to:
```
{ "bar": { "bar": "bar", "foo": "bar" }, "buzz": [ "fizz", "buzz" ], "fizz": [] }
```

Local relative files can be included automatically in the generated
content with `{{ include "..." }} function. This can be very useful
for:
- inject arbitrary markdown files in between sections
- automatically include example usage
````yaml
content: |-
include any relative files
{{ include "relative/path/to/file" }}
or examples
```hcl
{{ include "examples/foo/main.tf" }}
```
````

Generated content can be customized further away with `content` in configuration.
If the `content` is empty the default orders of section is used. `content` is a
Go template with following additional variables:
- `{{ .Header }}`
- `{{ .Footer }}`
- `{{ .Inputs }}`
- `{{ .Modules }}`
- `{{ .Outputs }}`
- `{{ .Providers }}`
- `{{ .Requirements }}`
- `{{ .Resources }}`
```yaml
content: |-
Any arbitrary text can be placed anywhere in the content
{{ .Header }}
and even in between sections
{{ .Providers }}
and they don't even need to be in the default order
{{ .Outputs }}
{{ .Inputs }}
```
These variables are the generated output of individual sections in the selected
formatter. For example `{{ .Inputs }}` is Markdown Table representation of inputs
when formatter is set to `markdown table` and AsciiDoc Document representation
when formatter is set to `asciidoc document` and so on.
Compatible formats for customized content are:
- `asciidoc document`
- `asciidoc table`
- `markdown document`
- `markdown table`

Configuration can be loaded with `-c, --config string` which accepts
both relative and absolute paths.
$ pwd
/path/to/parent/folder
$ tree
.
├── module-a
│ └── main.tf
├── module-b
│ └── main.tf
├── ...
└── .terraform-docs.yml
# executing from parent
$ terraform-docs -c .terraform-docs.yml module-a/
# executing from child
$ cd module-a/
$ terraform-docs -c ../.terraform-docs.yml .
# or an absolute path
$ terraform-docs -c /path/to/parent/folder/.terraform-docs.yml .
The order for looking for config file is:
1. root of module directory
2. current directory
3. `$HOME/.tfdocs.d/`
if `.terraform-docs.yml` is found in any of the folders above, that will
take precedence and will override the other ones. Note that values passed
directly as CLI flags will override all of the above.

The following scenarios can happen for --output-mode inject:
- file exists, comments exist: inject output between comments
- file exists, comments not found: append output at the end of file
- file exists, but empty: save the whole output into the file
- file not found: create the target file and save the ooutput into it

`--output-file` or corresponding `output.file` config can now support
absolute path as well as relative path to root of module foler. For
example all of the followings are valid:
$ cd /path/to/module
$ tree .
.
├── docs
│ └── README.md
├── ...
└── main.tf
# this works, relative path
$ terraform-docs markdown table --output-file ../docs/README.md .
# so does this, absolute path
$ terraform-docs markdown table --output-file /path/to/module/docs/README.md .

terraform-docs version constraints is almost identical to the syntax
used by Terraform. A version constraint is a string literal containing
one or more condition, which are separated by commas.
```yaml
version: ">= 0.13.0, < 1.0.0"
```
Each condition consists of an operator and a version number. A version
number is a series of numbers separated by dots (e.g. `0.13.0`). Note
that version number should not have leading `v` in it.
Valid operators are as follow:
- `=` (or no operator): allows for exact version number.
- `!=`: exclude an exact version number.
- `>`, `>=`, `<`, and `<=`: comparisons against a specific version.
- `~>`: only the rightmost version component to increment.
