I'm start using Terraform and I'm following the project updates on his Github repository.
I see new releases are available on releases section: https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/releases
I installed Terraform tool following the steps: https://www.terraform.io/intro/getting-started/install.html
The new releases are a zip file with base code but I want to know how I can install it on my computer (OSX). What I downloaded when I installed for the first time was a zip file with just a "terraform" file as unix executable.
How I can generate this Unix executable from the zip available on the github releases section?
Any idea?
Thank you!

You can switch between different versions of terraform by typing the command tfswitch on your terminal. Select the version of terraform you require by using the up and down arrow. Hit Enter to select the desired version.
Run the Terraform 0.12upgrade command The command given above will start at the directory containing all of your Terraform modules and work through them one by one, running the upgrade command along the way. It will update the Terraform syntax in each module.
We strongly recommend completing an upgrade to the latest Terraform v0. 11 release first. This will give you an opportunity to address any changes required for the previous major version upgrades separately, rather than making multiple changes at once.
If you use Homebrew on MacOS already, you can install Terraform simply by
$ brew install terraform and upgrade by
$ brew upgrade terraform In fact, you might be interested in letting Homebrew also control other tools:
$ brew install awscli $ brew install packer $ brew cask install docker $ brew cask install virtualbox $ brew cask install vagrant If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
