Today, we're rebranding the Digger project to OpenTaco - an Open Toolkit for terraform automation. The company behind the OpenTaco project, however, continues to remain Digger (Digger HQ on Github). This will gradually be incorporated in all of the Digger project's existing marketing material and repositories, to reflect the same.
The decision to rebrand wasn't taken lightly. Over time, we've heard the same question again and again: is there an open-source, fully self-hostable TACOS tool built for the Terraform and OpenTofu ecosystem? OpenTaco is our answer to that.
While tools like Atlantis, and even Digger as it exists today, have paved the way for PR-based Terraform automation, we've learned from users that there are unavoidable limitations that are often encountered at scale, particularly around modularity, state management, and team-wide workflows.
OpenTaco aims to build on that foundation, offering a modern, scalable architecture designed so that teams never have to start with one tool and graduate to another. It's built to grow with you, from your first Terraform plan to your ten thousandth.
Simply put, it means that users need not use anything else with Terraform/OpenTofu to manage their infra.
The Open Toolkit is MIT licensed and allows users to use any version of Terraform/OpenTofu that they want to, aimed to make reduce the fragmentation in the community.
TL;DR No changes to your current setup. All existing Digger users will continue to get the same Terraform automation experience out of the box, nothing changes in how your automation works.
You’ll simply start seeing a new interface: OpenTaco, which replaces Digger Pro. You can log in right away using your existing Digger credentials, no new sign-up or setup required.
One of the most significant additions in OpenTaco is Units: a new way to organize and manage your Terraform or OpenTofu automation.
With Units, users now have the option to have their Terraform state managed by OpenTaco. It works as a drop-in replacement for the standard backend setup, fully compatible with both Terraform and OpenTofu CLIs. You can use it out of the box, with the same familiar workflow:
terraform {
cloud {
hostname = “your-hostname”
organization = “your-org”
workspaces {
name = “your-workspace-name”
}
}
}
Once configured, you can log in just as you would with Terraform Cloud:
terraform login otaco.app
