The last of the available variable types is boolean. They give the option to employ simple true or false values. For example, you might wish to have a variable that decides when to generate the root user password on a new deployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
variable “set_password” {
\n default = false
\n}
\nThe above example boolean can be used similarly to a string variable by simply marking down the correct variable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
create_password = “${var.set_password}”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By default, the value is set to false in this example. However, you can overwrite the variable at deployment by assigning a different value in a command line variable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
terraform apply -var set_password=”true”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
