It looks like I still have merge in here, I haven't used TF in like 5 years, but if I can give someone else merge I will, poking around at settings for the repo.

It would be great if this library went back into maintenance. It seems to work at a basic level with the latest release of the library and terraform; however, some workaround is required. The one issue I encountered I had to work around, but it appears to be already fixed in the latest develop branch.

If @LeOndaz wants to maintain it, it'd be nice if they did.

I'm open to it, but I'm not sure where/whom to reach out

It appears that @Spikeophant has access to set you up with merge access.

Of course, worst case, this could be forked. But I guess you'd lose all of the outstanding issues and PRs currently associated with this repo.

I don't have merge and haven't used in years, but agree that someone with a vested interest should maintain. Provided they aren't a nation state spy ;).

@merpius @sammck @janibashamd @Spikeophant it's worth mentioning that it's been almost a year since this issue was opened, most likely I can reclaim the name python-terraform from Pypi, I also think it's not worth a fork, I think a new async implementation would be nicer, most people are using/moving to async these days, sqlalchemy did, django is doing that, so I think it's worth a shot

Please, think out loud and share that with me

LeOndaz avatar Jul 09 '25 23:07 LeOndaz

True it has been a long time, however Spike only replied 2 days ago. :D So I think there's hope.

As for if it cannot be regained, a new implementation utilizing async seems reasonable, but probably a decent amount of work to get initially set up. If you're up for it, go for it.

wops, I didn't notice the collaborator badge, this makes things much easier, I will wait till we get all the opinions

LeOndaz avatar Jul 09 '25 23:07 LeOndaz

@merpius I would like to add something, in some apps, I'm using Pulumi, instead of Terraform, they have python bindings and some people are using SST (sst.dev, I think it's an interface around Pulumi), if you still have the option to decide, most likely you'll ditch terraform, if not, understandable

LeOndaz avatar Jul 09 '25 23:07 LeOndaz

I don't see that I have the ability to add additional collaborators with merge permissions.

Spikeophant avatar Jul 10 '25 00:07 Spikeophant

Feel free to use TofuPy instead, which works with both Terraform and OpenTofu.

+1 to TofuPy mentioned above, just tested and looks solid. cool work @tedivm!
