tfenv VS gitignore

You'll need the correct version of Terraform (the version of Terraform used for apply can be found in terraform_version at the beginning of the .tfstate file), to switch between versions I recommend tfenv.

For almost four years I'd been using a Macbook as my main work machine. One quality of life tool I'd gotten used to was tfenv, a lovely little tool for managing terraform versions & quickly switching between them.

For example terraform state files often have non backwards compatible changes. You should consider using something like tfenv so everyone on your team has identical versions of terraform.

I'm using the tool tfenv to manage Terraform versions. Other tools can do that. You can use asdf, too. I saw that asdf can do more than manage Terraform versions.

Documentacion TFENV

git clone https://github.com/tfutils/tfenv.git ~/.tfenv export PATH="$HOME/.tfenv/bin:$PATH" # install to appropriate shell startup file, e.g. $HOME/.bashrc echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.tfenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.profile

In conclusion, the Gitignore repository stands as a testament to the power of collective knowledge and collaboration in software development. By providing a centralized repository of .gitignore templates, it empowers developers to streamline their workflow, maintain cleaner repositories, and focus on what they do best – writing exceptional code. As the software development landscape continues to evolve, the significance of .gitignore templates as indispensable tools for developers is set to endure.

The challenge here was actually from my #48in28 Exercism participation, where I am pretty familiar the standard layout for some repositories since I am familiar with tooling and language, working with new languages does not come with the same familiarity, so I found it made sense to use canonical definitions, hence the use of github/gitignore.

Add .env to your .gitignore file to prevent it from being committed. Here's an example file with it already added. You may also use dotenv for advanced configuration and it will automatically load environment variables from a .env file into process.env.

Here you can find ready-made .gitignore templates for various technologies and languages such as Python, Java, Kotlin, Go, and many others: https://github.com/github/gitignore/tree/main.

You could also use this git ignore template. Create you .gitignore and add the contents from that file in.

I've only used free Unity with GitHub or GitLab, professionally and reaching back into internships. One recommendation would be to use a slightly longer .gitignore than the default, like this one.

Virtual Environments are a feature that has been part of python itself since version 3.3. It allows you to isolate both a python version and any packages you install with it. Every python project I develop with uses a virtual environment for such isolation purposes. Now I generally like to create these virtual environments inside the target project's directory so I know exactly what it's tied to. If you use GitHub's python gitignore file naming the virtual environment folder as venv or .venv will ensure it doesn't get committed (which you don't want). So I'll make a new project folder and create a virtual environment inside of it:

Especially considering the GitHub .gitignore template for Node only ignores .env.local, not .local.env: https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/main/Node.gitignore...
