Set location for cache and backed

Terraspace
1

Hi,
I have tried to set the “LOCATION” variable through environment and Azure plugin configuration but I still see that terraspace is using the default “westus” value for creating storage account name, storage resource group name and local cache path.
What do I miss? How can I set the variable at a central place?
Thank you
Christoph

Dug into this. When tested this originally, was using the az cli to set the location. Example:

$ az configure -l
[
  {
    "name": "location",
    "source": "/home/ec2-user/.azure/config",
    "value": "eastus"
  }
]
$ terraspace build demo
Building .terraspace-cache/eastus/dev/stacks/demo
Built in .terraspace-cache/eastus/dev/stacks/demo
$ az configure --defaults location=westus
$ terraspace build demo
Building .terraspace-cache/westus/dev/stacks/demo
Built in .terraspace-cache/westus/dev/stacks/demo
$

Think it should be settable with an env var also though. This has been released in:

To update, cd into your terraspace project and run

bundle update terraspace_plugin_azurerm

The terraspace_plugin_azurerm version 0.3.1 will update the azure_info. Eventually, will update terraspace dependencies also.

Example with setting it with the ARM_LOCATION env var.

$ ARM_LOCATION=westus terraspace build demo
Building .terraspace-cache/westus/dev/stacks/demo
Built in .terraspace-cache/westus/dev/stacks/demo
$ ARM_LOCATION=eastus terraspace build demo
Building .terraspace-cache/eastus/dev/stacks/demo
Built in .terraspace-cache/eastus/dev/stacks/demo
$

Also, updated the docs:

Works like a charm.

Thanks a lot
