Welcome to tenv, a versatile version manager for OpenTofu, Terraform, Terragrunt and Atmos, written in Go. Our tool simplifies the complexity of handling different versions of these powerful tools, ensuring developers and DevOps professionals can focus on what matters most - building and deploying efficiently.
tenv is a successor of tofuenv and tfenv.
- Versatile version management: Easily switch between different versions of OpenTofu, Terraform, Terragrunt and Atmos.
- Semver 2.0.0 Compatibility: Utilizes go-version for semantic versioning and use the HCL parser to extract required version constraint from OpenTofu/Terraform/Terragrunt files (see required_version and Terragrunt hcl).
- Signature verification: Supports cosign (if present on your machine) and PGP (via gopenpgp), see signature support.
- Intuitive installation: Simple installation process with Homebrew and manual options.
- Callable as Go module, with a Semver compatibility promise on tenvlib wrapper package (get more information in TENV_AS_LIB.md).
asdf-vm share the same goals than tenv : simplify the usage of several version of tools.
asdf-vm is generic and extensible with a plugin system, key tenv differences :
- tenv is more specific and has features dedicated to OpenTofu, Terraform, Terragrunt and Atmos, like HCL parsing based detection (see Key Features).
- tenv is distributed as independent binaries and does not rely on any shell or other CLI executable.
- tenv does better in terms of performance and platform compatibility. It works uniformly across all modern operating systems, including Linux, MacOS, Windows, BSD, and Solaris, whereas asdf-vm natively supports only Linux and MacOS.
- tenv checks the sha256 checksum and the signature of the checksum file with cosign. Check Signature support section for getting more information about it.
- tenv command compatibility: In nearly all places you can use the exact syntax that works in tfenv / tofuenv. If you're coming from tfenv/tofuenv and comfortable with that way of working you can almost always use the same syntax with tenv.
- tenv performance: It sounds incredibly useful, though it might be tough to get a real apples to apples comparison since the tools work differently in a lot of ways. The author of asdf did a great writeup of performance problems. asdf-vm is written in bash which certainly makes it challenging to be performant, whereas tenv is written in Golang and works much faster.

$ terragrunt -v
terragrunt version v0.55.1
then :
$ TG_VERSION=0.54.1 terragrunt -v
terragrunt version v0.54.1
ATMOS_INSTALL_MODE
String (the default depend on ATMOS_REMOTE, without change on it, it is "api" else it is "direct")
- "api" install mode retrieve download url of Atmos from Github REST API (ATMOS_REMOTE must comply with it).
- "direct" install mode generate download url of Atmos based on ATMOS_REMOTE.
See advanced remote configuration for more details.

String (the default depend on ATMOS_LIST_URL, without change on it, it is "api" else it is "html")
- "api" list mode retrieve information of Atmos releases from Github REST API (ATMOS_LIST_URL must comply with it).
- "html" list mode extract information of Atmos releases from parsing an html page in ATMOS_LIST_URL.
See advanced remote configuration for more details.
ATMOS_LIST_URL

Allow to override the remote url only for the releases listing.
See advanced remote configuration for more details.
ATMOS_REMOTE
String (Default: https://api.github.com/repos/cloudposse/atmos/releases)
URL to install Atmos when ATMOS_REMOTE differ from its default value, ATMOS_INSTALL_MODE is set to "direct" and ATMOS_LIST_MODE is set to "html" (assume an artifact proxy usage).
tenv atmos
subcommands detect
, install
, list-remote
and use
support a --remote-url
, -u
flag version.
See advanced remote configuration for more details.
ATMOS_REMOTE_PASSWORD
String (Default: "")
Could be used with ATMOS_REMOTE_USER to specify HTTP basic auth when same credential are used with ATMOS_REMOTE and ATMOS_LIST_URL (instead of https://user:password@host.org
URL format).
ATMOS_REMOTE_USER
String (Default: "")
Could be used with ATMOS_REMOTE_PASSWORD to specify HTTP basic auth when same credential are used with ATMOS_REMOTE and ATMOS_LIST_URL (instead of https://user:password@host.org

If not empty string, this variable overrides Atmos default constraint, specified in ${TENV_ROOT}/Atmos/constraint file.
ATMOS_DEFAULT_VERSION
String (Default: "")
If not empty string, this variable overrides Atmos fallback version, specified in ${TENV_ROOT}/Atmos/version file.
ATMOS_VERSION
String (Default: "")
If not empty string, this variable overrides Atmos version, specified in .atmos-version
files.
tenv atmos
subcommands install
and detect
also respects this variable.
e.g. with :
$ atmos version
đź‘˝ Atmos v1.72.0 on linux/amd64
then :
$ ATMOS_VERSION=1.70 atmos version
đź‘˝ Atmos v1.70.0 on linux/amd64
default version file
The TENV_ROOT/<TOOL>/version
file is the tool default version used when no project specific or user specific are found. It can be written with tenv <tool> use
.
opentofu version files
If you put a .opentofu-version
file in the working directory, one of its parent directory, or user home directory, tenv detects it and uses the version written in it.
Note, that TOFUENV_TOFU_VERSION can be used to override version specified by .opentofu-version
file.
Recognize same values as tenv tofu use
command.
See required_version docs.
terraform version files
If you put a .terraform-version
or .tfswitchrc
file in the working directory, one of its parent directory, or user home directory, tenv detects it and uses the version written in it.
Note, that TFENV_TERRAFORM_VERSION can be used to override version specified by those files.
Recognize same values as tenv tf use
command.
See required_version docs.
terragrunt version files
If you put a .terragrunt-version
or a .tgswitchrc
file in the working directory, one of its parent directory, or user home directory, tenv detects it and uses the version written in it. tenv also detect a version
field in a .tgswitch.toml
in same places.
Note, that TG_VERSION can be used to override version specified by those files.
Recognize same values as tenv tg use
command.
terragrunt.hcl file
If you have a terragrunt.hcl or terragrunt.hcl.json in the working directory, one of its parent directory, or user home directory, tenv will read constraint from terraform_version_constraint
or terragrunt_version_constraint
field in it (depending on proxy or subcommand used).
atmos version files
If you put a .atmos-version
file in the working directory, one of its parent directory, or user home directory, tenv detects it and uses the version written in it.
Note, that ATMOS_VERSION can be used to override version specified by those files.
Recognize same values as tenv atmos use
command.
required_version
the latest-allowed
or min-required
strategies scan through your IAC files (see list in project binaries) and identify a version conforming to the constraint in the relevant files. They fallback to latest
when no IAC files and no default constraint are found, and can optionally be used with a default constraint as detailed in project binaries.
Currently the format for Terraform required_version and OpenTofu required_version are very similar, however this may change over time, always refer to docs for the latest format specification.
example:
version = ">= 1.2.0, < 2.0.0"
This would identify the latest version at or above 1.2.0 and below 2.0.0
tofu
The tofu
command in this project is a proxy to OpenTofu's tofu
command managed by tenv.
The version resolution order is :
- TOFUENV_TOFU_VERSION environment variable
.opentofu-version
fileterraform_version_constraint
fromterragrunt.hcl
fileterraform_version_constraint
fromterragrunt.hcl.json
file- TOFUENV_TOFU_DEFAULT_VERSION environment variable
${TENV_ROOT}/OpenTofu/version
file (can be written withtenv tofu use
)latest-allowed
The latest-allowed
strategy rely on required_version from .tofu, .tofu.json, .tf or .tf.json files with a fallback to latest
when no constraint are found. Moreover it is possible to add a default constraint with TOFUENV_TOFU_DEFAULT_CONSTRAINT environment variable or ${TENV_ROOT}/OpenTofu/constraint
file (can be written with tenv tofu constraint
). The default constraint is added while using latest-allowed
, min-required
or custom constraint. A default constraint with latest-allowed
or min-required
will avoid the fallback to latest
when there is no .tf or .tf.json files.
terraform
The terraform
command in this project is a proxy to HashiCorp's terraform
command managed by tenv.
The version resolution order is :
- TFENV_TERRAFORM_VERSION environment variable
.terraform-version
file.tfswitchrc
fileterraform_version_constraint
fromterragrunt.hcl
fileterraform_version_constraint
fromterragrunt.hcl.json
file- TFENV_TERRAFORM_DEFAULT_VERSION environment variable
${TENV_ROOT}/Terraform/version
file (can be written withtenv tf use
)latest-allowed
The latest-allowed
strategy rely on required_version from .tf or .tf.json files with a fallback to latest
when no constraint are found. Moreover it is possible to add a default constraint with TFENV_TERRAFORM_DEFAULT_CONSTRAINT environment variable or ${TENV_ROOT}/Terraform/constraint
file (can be written with tenv tf constraint
). The default constraint is added while using latest-allowed
, min-required
or custom constraint. A default constraint with latest-allowed
or min-required
will avoid the fallback to latest
when there is no .tf or .tf.json files.
terragrunt
The terragrunt
command in this project is a proxy to Gruntwork's terragrunt
command managed by tenv.
The version resolution order is :
- TG_VERSION environment variable
.terragrunt-version
file.tgswitchrc
fileversion
fromtgswitch.toml
fileterragrunt_version_constraint
fromterragrunt.hcl
fileterragrunt_version_constraint
fromterragrunt.hcl.json
file- TG_DEFAULT_VERSION environment variable
${TENV_ROOT}/Terragrunt/version
file (can be written withtenv tg use
)latest-allowed
The latest-allowed
strategy has no information for Terragrunt and will fallback to latest
unless there is default constraint. Adding a default constraint could be done with TG_DEFAULT_CONSTRAINT environment variable or ${TENV_ROOT}/Terragrunt/constraint
file (can be written with tenv tg constraint
). The default constraint is added while using latest-allowed
, min-required
or custom constraint. A default constraint with latest-allowed
or min-required
will avoid there fallback to latest
.
atmos
The atmos
command in this project is a proxy to Cloudposse's atmos
command managed by tenv.
The version resolution order is :
- ATMOS_VERSION environment variable
.atmos-version
file- ATMOS_DEFAULT_VERSION environment variable
${TENV_ROOT}/Atmos/version
file (can be written withtenv atmos use
)latest-allowed
The latest-allowed
strategy has no information for Atmos and will fallback to latest
unless there is default constraint. Adding a default constraint could be done with
ATMOS_DEFAULT_CONSTRAINT environment variable or ${TENV_ROOT}/Atmos/constraint
file (can
be written with tenv atmos constraint
). The default constraint is added while using latest-allowed
, min-required
or custom constraint. A default constraint with latest-allowed
or min-required
will avoid there fallback to latest
.
tf
The tf
command is a proxy to tofu
or terraform
depending on the version files present in project.
The version resolution order is :
.opentofu-version
file (launchtofu
)terraform_version_constraint
fromterragrunt.hcl
file (launchtofu
)terraform_version_constraint
fromterragrunt.hcl.json
file (launchtofu
).terraform-version
file (launchterraform
).tfswitchrc
file (launchterraform
)- fail with a message
This advanced configuration is meant to call artifact mirror (like JFrog Artifactory).
The yaml file from TENV_REMOTE_CONF path can have one part for each supported proxy : tofu
, terraform
, terragrunt
and atmos
.
yaml fields description
Each part can have the following string field : install_mode
, list_mode
, list_url
, url
, new_base_url
, old_base_url
, selector
and part
With install_mode
set to "direct", tenv skip the release information fetching and generate download url instead of reading them from API (overridden by <TOOL>_INSTALL_MODE
env var).
With list_mode
set to "html", tenv change the fetching of all releases information from API to parse the parent html page of artifact location, see selector
and part
(overridden by <TOOL>_LIST_MODE
env var).
url
allows to override the default remote url (overridden by flag or <TOOL>_REMOTE
env var).
list_url
allows to override the remote url only for the releases listing (overridden by <TOOL>_LIST_URL
env var).
old_base_url
and new_base_url
are used as url rewrite rule (if an url start with the prefix, it will be changed to use the new base url).
If old_base_url
and new_base_url
are empty, tenv try to guess right behaviour based on previous fields.
selector
is used to gather in a list all matching html node and part
choose on which node part (attribute name or "#text" for inner text) a version will be extracted (selector default to "a" (html link) and part default to "href" (link target))
Examples
Those examples assume that a GitHub proxy at https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/github have the same behavior than JFrog Artifactory :
- mirror https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/releases/download/v1.6.0/tofu_1.6.0_linux_amd64.zip at https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/github/opentofu/opentofu/releases/download/v1.6.0/tofu_1.6.0_linux_amd64.zip.
- have at https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/github/opentofu/opentofu/releases/download an html page with links on existing sub folder like "v1.6.0/"
Example 1 : Retrieve Terraform binaries and list available releases from the mirror (TFENV_LIST_MODE is optional because TFENV_LIST_URL differ from its default(when TFENV_LIST_URL is not set, it copy TFENV_REMOTE)).
TFENV_REMOTE=https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/hashicorp
TFENV_LIST_MODE=html
Example 2 : Retrieve Terraform binaries from the mirror and list available releases from the Hashicorp releases API.
TFENV_REMOTE=https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/hashicorp
TFENV_LIST_URL=https://releases.hashicorp.com
Example 1 & 2, does not need install mode (by release index.json is figed in mirror without problem), however create a rewrite rule from "https://releases.hashicorp.com" to "https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/hashicorp" to obtains correct download URLs.
Example 3 : Retrieve OpenTofu binaries and list available releases from the mirror (TOFUENV_INSTALL_MODE and TOFUENV_LIST_MODE are optional because overloading TOFUENV_REMOTE already change them).
TOFUENV_REMOTE=https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/github
TOFUENV_INSTALL_MODE=direct
TOFUENV_LIST_MODE=html
Example 4 : Retrieve OpenTofu binaries from the mirror and list available releases from the GitHub API (TOFUENV_INSTALL_MODE is optional because overloading TOFUENV_REMOTE already set it to "direct").
TOFUENV_REMOTE=https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/github
TOFUENV_INSTALL_MODE=direct
TOFUENV_LIST_URL=https://api.github.com/repos/opentofu/opentofu/releases
Example 3 & 4, does not create a rewrite rule (the direct install mode build correct download URLs).
Example 1 & 4 can be merged in a remote.yaml :
tofu:
url: "https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/github"
install_mode: "direct"
list_url: "https://api.github.com/repos/opentofu/opentofu/releases"
terraform:
url: "https://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/hashicorp"
list_mode: "html"
OpenTofu signature support
tenv checks the sha256 checksum and the signature of the checksum file with cosign (if present on your machine) or PGP (via gopenpgp). However, unstable OpenTofu versions are signed only with cosign (in this case, if cosign is not found tenv will display a warning).
Terraform signature support
tenv checks the sha256 checksum and the PGP signature of the checksum file (via gopenpgp, there is no cosign signature available).
Terragrunt signature support
tenv checks the sha256 checksum (there is no signature available).
Atmos signature support
tenv checks the sha256 checksum (there is no signature available).
You can use cosign
to verify the signature of tenv
releases. Below is an example installing the .rpm
using dnf
once we've verified the signatures/integrity.
Note
The example below is a bash script that could be useful if you are wanting to automate installation of tenv
in a developer environment. Adapt it to fit your specific use case.
