Is there a way to destroy resources when I delete a folder

[marko-roman]

For example i have applayed follow structure
|_envs
|__prod
|__dev

And I want to delete dev. I need firth run terragrunt run-all destroy inside dev folder, and after that delete folder and push to git.
But i want to use CI/CD and destroy resources when i delete dev folder.

Are there any way how to detect that folder was deleting when i run terragrunt run-all apply or plan?

Hi,
afaik this is not supported, it will require to remember commit of "last run" calculate diff, identify what is removed and run destroy

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to run a terragrunt run-all plan -destroy in case of terragrunt file deletion.

Any opinions ? @denis256 ?

Hey @rkhaled0 ,

Yes. It's the same solution, and right now has to be done manually unless you're willing to buy a solution like Gruntwork Pipelines, which is designed to handle this logic automatically.

You basically need to checkout the reference where the unit(s) existed, then run plan -destroy/destroy in those units.
