    Generate documentation from Terraform modules in various output formats

  • As for generation of the docs, any tool that can render to Asciidoc is perfectly compatible. For ex. we use terraform-docs to generate docs based on our modules, and drop them into the antora doc source dir in the TF repo. That particular tool focuses mostly on parsing variables/outputs/module description blocks, but might have more flexibility (it also supports templates for generation). I don’t know if there would be a one-size-fits all tool that could generate source-based docs across your whole tool chain, so trying to standardize on output format might be your best bet. Also, tools like pandoc can be used to convert between formats (like markdown -> asciidoc) pretty easily if need be.
