Introduction

This guide provides a shell script to list the available Terraform Enterprise (TFE) releases for Flexible Deployment Options (FDO).

Expected Outcome

You will have a shell script that can print a list of available TFE FDO release versions.

Prerequisites

A valid Terraform Enterprise Flexible Deployment Options license.

Procedure

Follow these steps to create and run the script.

Create an fdo_releases.sh file with the following content. Be sure to replace the placeholder with your actual license string.

#!/bin/bash

## Replace <YOUR_LICENSE_STRING> with your TFE FDO license.
TF_LICENSE_STRING=<YOUR_LICENSE_STRING>

## This command fetches the list of TFE image tags.
curl -sX GET \
  https://images.releases.hashicorp.com/v2/hashicorp/terraform-enterprise/tags/list \
  -u "terraform:${TF_LICENSE_STRING}" | jq -r '.tags[]' | sort | grep ^v2

Make the script executable.
```
$ chmod +x fdo_releases.sh
```

Execute the script to print the list of available TFE FDO releases. The output will display a list of versions.

$ ./fdo_releases.sh
## The output will resemble the following:
v202309-1
v202310-1
v202311-1
v202312-1
v202401-1
v202401-2
v202402-1
v202402-2
