Is there a better way to auto-tag than maintaining the list of taggable resources? I'm mostly curious about multi-provider combinations, say AWS and Azure https://github.com/joeduffy/aws-tags-example/blob/master/autotag-py/taggable.py At the moment I add propagate the default tags from the config object and then add those to each resource explicitly. I've considered provider tags but this issue https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues/19204 makes it unusable

Not as far as I'm aware. There is no attribute that says a resource can or cannot have tags.

hmm good point about

tagsAll

- do you have any example of such a resource? I wonder if it could have both arguments then?

I think

tagsAll

is supposed to be a combination of

tags

and any tags that AWS gives the resource... I did come across a few resources with it, I'll have a quick hunt around for some.

I'm quite confused from the description on what is the difference between

tags

and

tagsAll

`tagsAll`:

A map of tags assigned to the resource, including those inherited from the provider .

`tags`:

A map of tags to assign to the resource. .If configured with a provider default_tags configuration block present, tags with matching keys will overwrite those defined at the provider-level.

I wonder what happens to

tagsAll

if they partially match

default_tags

from provider

If you'd be interested in AWS with Python, check out https://github.com/tlinhart/pulumi-aws-tags It uses the

inspect

module to get the taggable resources.

thanks @proud-art-41399 it looks great!
