Doesn't terragrunt allow you to do that?

The looping code while better with terraform 0.12 is still quite nasty though.

The idea of having to use a 3rd party tool to generate config for my 3rd party tool that generates config just seems Wrong.

At this point I'd rather write idiomatic but repetitive Terraform and know that I will be safer on upgrades, as long as I continue to refactor and clean up my modules for the new functionality Hashi is releasing.

I wasn't aware of this, looks like it would solve some of our pain points, thanks!

I think the existence of tools like this is a succinct way to say that static/declarative languages are really hard to execute.
