v2.0.0 - 2025-05-11

The package has been adopted by the SublimeText GitHub org and now lives at https://github.com/SublimeText/Terraform/ for the community to maintain. This is accompanied by many changes to bring the syntax definition up to current standards.

Added

• Declare hyphens as sub-word separators. (@FichteFoll, #60)
• Special highlighting for for_each and count meta arguments (keyword.control). (@FichteFoll, #59)
• Highlighting of more special language variables: each, count and self. (@FichteFoll, #58)
• Highlighting for ephemeral blocks. (@TerminalFi, #70)
• A separate syntax definition for terraform plan output (@michaelblyons, #51, #68)
• Special highlighting for AWS ACL resource references in strings. (@michaelblyons, @deathaxe, #69, #76)
• Support JSON-style objects (requires ST 4180). (@michaelblyons, #54, #71)
• Scope-based folding rules. (@deathaxe, #81)
• Consistent indentation rules. (@deathaxe, #82)
• Highlight unclosed strings and stray closing brackets as illegal. (@FichteFoll, #91)

Changed

• Switched to syntax version 2.
  This breaks compatibility with ST builds before 4000, but the previous version can still be installed on older builds. (@FichteFoll, #62)
• Adapted and improved many scope names to standards that have been established over the past years for the default packages:
  • String interpolation meta scopes and punctuation (@FichteFoll, #58)
  • Keywords (@FichteFoll, @deathaxe, #58, #78, #86)
  • Attribute access punctuation (@FichteFoll, #58)
  • Punctuation scopes in for expressions (@FichteFoll, #58)
  • Blocks, including indexing for "name" labels (@michaelblyons, @FichteFoll, #69, #87)
  • Operators (@michaelblyons, #66)
  • Numbers (@deathaxe, #77)
  • Brackets (@deathaxe, #80)
  • Function calls (@deathaxe, #83)
• Updated the built-in function list for highlighting. (@FichteFoll, #59)
• Renamed many contexts and resolved various anonymous contexts for better extensibility. (@deathaxe, #75, #79)

Removed

• Removed various files targeting older ST versions, notably the old .tmLanguage syntax definition. This breaks compatibility with ST 2, but the previous version can still be installed on older builds. (@FichteFoll, #63)

Fixed

• Improved matching of identifiers by adding a scope and properly recognizing hyphens. (@FichteFoll, #60)
• Support identifiers starting with an underscore character (@FichteFoll, #43, #64).
