:wave: , does anyone have a clean way to generate outputs/variable files?

i dunno how you'd identify outputs to generate them. but here's a tool that will generate a <http://variables.tf|variables.tf> from all var references...
<https://github.com/YakDriver/scratchrelaxtv>

Mainly looking for a way to generate all the boilerplate stuff for a module. Say given a <http://main.tf|main.tf> with xyz resource, a tool that will generate a bunch of generic outputs for xyz resource

it's not for everyone, or every module, but i often just output the entire resource. that might give you a way to generate outputs automatically, since you wouldn't need to know the attributes... but you'd still have to name the output at least...
```resource "aws_iam_role" "this" {}

output "aws_iam_role_this" {
  value = aws_iam_role.this
}```


That's a great idea, thanks for that <@UBXCNE99N>!
