Hello one question I'm adding infracost to the pipeline using the docker image, but how will it make a difference if I haven't? i dont have usage_file

Hi Victor, what’s the CI/CD system you’re interesting with? As shown below, the CLI will error if it can’t find the usage file, do you want it to not fail if it can’t find it in the container?

infracost breakdown --path examples/terraform --usage-file not-here.yml
Detected Terraform directory at examples/terraform

Error: Error reading usage file: open not-here.yml: no such file or directory

My CI/CD is Gitlab

is the usage-file committed to that branch?

I hope that the first resources created are the starting point of comparison in the repository

the usage-file can be passed into the

infracost reakdown

or the

infracost diff

command, but first you need to run https://www.infracost.io/docs/usage_based_resources/#1-generate-usage-file on your machine commit the file to the branch so it can be used in CI/CD

i'm test

it’s a file that you can update to input usage data like “how many GB of storage are in your S3 bucket” so Infracost can provide a more accurate cost estimate. You don’t need it when you are starting to use Infracost for the first time. It’s helpful if you want to get more accurate estimates.

thanks continued testing

We don’t have a time estimate yet but we’d love hearing your feedback on what features you think should be in the paid product!

ok when I to finished my POC send you my feedback
