Create `.tf` files from remote resources

Disclaimer

Generating configuration from remote state is still not officially supported by Terraform.

However, when I stupidly enough deleted a complex DataDog resource that I had created manually, I managed to fully restore it and create a full terraform file for it using a few simple commands

This worked for me with the datadog_synthetics_test resource, so this will be the example resource below.
If this works for you with any other Terraform resources, I would love to know 🤗 .

You have an string including words and characters that describes a boolean expression.
The words in the string may include one of the following four options

1. "true"
2. "false"
3. "&"
4. "|"
