HCL v2 Support?

[hongkongkiwi]

Can you add support for HCL v2?

[sclevine]

Unfortunately, this is not quite as simple to implement as HCL v1: hashicorp/hcl#294

For v5.1.0, I'm considering implementing support for decoding (but not encoding) HCL v2 using https://github.com/tmccombs/hcl2json, which works pretty well and appears to be actively maintained.

Do you need bi-directional support, or just the ability to parse HCL v2 and transform it to other formats?

I just tried to use this tool to quickly transform YML to HCL, because in terraform we usually use HCL to configure e.g. Helm Charts (and all the examples are YAML).

So for me personally the use-case would be "yml to hcl-v2".

@toabi may I suggest you to convert to json, terraform accept that as input as well
