Annotations

Annotation comments can disable rules on specific lines:

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
    # tflint-ignore: aws_instance_invalid_type
    instance_type = "t1.2xlarge"
}

Multiple rules can be specified as a comma-separated list:

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
    # tflint-ignore: aws_instance_invalid_type, other_rule
    instance_type = "t1.2xlarge"
}

All rules can be ignored by specifying the all keyword:

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
    # tflint-ignore: all
    instance_type = "t1.2xlarge"
}

It's a good idea to add a reason for why a rule is ignored, especially temporarily:

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
    # This instance type is new and TFLint doesn't know about it yet
    # tflint-ignore: aws_instance_invalid_type
    instance_type = "t10.2xlarge"
}

Or, on the same line:

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
  # tflint-ignore: aws_instance_invalid_type # too new for TFLint
  instance_type = "t10.2xlarge" 
}

The // comment style is also supported, but Terraform recommends #.

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
  // tflint-ignore: aws_instance_invalid_type // too new for TFLint
  instance_type = "t10.2xlarge" 
}

To disable an entire file, you can also use the tflint-ignore-file annotation:

# tflint-ignore-file: aws_instance_invalid_type

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
  instance_type = "t1.2xlarge"
}

This annotation is valid only at the top of the file. The following cannot be used and will result in an error:

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
  # tflint-ignore-file: aws_instance_invalid_type
  instance_type = "t1.2xlarge"
}
resource "aws_instance" "foo" { # tflint-ignore-file: aws_instance_invalid_type
  instance_type = "t1.2xlarge"
}
