For now, only check the JSON views package, since this was the instance
that most recently tripped us up. There are a few dozen failures
elsewhere in Terraform which would need to be addressed before expanding
this to other packages.
This includes the addition of the new "//go:build" comment form in addition
to the legacy "// +build" notation, as produced by gofmt to ensure
consistent behavior between Go versions. The new directives are all
equivalent to what was present before, so there's no change in behavior.
Go 1.17 continues to use the Unicode 13 tables as in Go 1.16, so this
upgrade does not require also upgrading our Unicode-related dependencies.
This upgrade includes the following breaking changes which will also
appear as breaking changes for Terraform users, but that are consistent
with the Terraform v1.0 compatibility promises.
- On MacOS, Terraform now requires macOS 10.13 High Sierra or later.
This upgrade also includes the following breaking changes which will
appear as breaking changes for Terraform users that are inconsistent with
our compatibility promises, but have justified exceptions as follows:
- cidrsubnet, cidrhost, and cidrnetmask will now reject IPv4 CIDR
addresses whose decimal components have leading zeros, where previously
they would just silently ignore those leading zeros.
This is a security-motivated exception to our compatibility promises,
because some external systems interpret zero-prefixed octets as octal
numbers rather than decimal, and thus the previous lenient parsing could
lead to a different interpretation of the address between systems, and
thus potentially allow bypassing policy when configuring firewall rules
etc.
This upgrade also includes the following breaking changes which could
_potentially_ appear as breaking changes for Terraform users, but that do
not in practice for the reasons given:
- The Go net/url package no longer allows query strings with pairs
separated by semicolons instead of ampersands. This primarily affects
HTTP servers written in Go, and Terraform includes a special temporary
HTTP server as part of its implementation of OAuth for "terraform login",
but that server only needs to accept URLs created by Terraform itself
and Terraform does not generate any URLs that would be rejected.
* tools: remove terraform-bundle.
terraform-bundle is no longer supported in the main branch of terraform. Users can build terraform-bundle from terraform tagged v0.15 and older.
* add a README pointing users to the v0.15 branch
This adds a CI job for running the new PR link checker for documentation.
[terraform-website PR 1574](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-website/pull/1574)
added a new link checking CI job specifically for warning about broken links in
pull requests. This link checker is optimized for:
- Running (relatively) quickly.
- Only reporting on files that were changed in the current PR, to avoid spamming
you with problems you had nothing to do with.
- Being transparent and simple to maintain. (Note that this is in conflict with
minimizing false positives/negatives! We try to give very few of both, but
completely eliminating them would result in an unaffordable maintenance
burden. We expect that some PRs will be merged with this job red.)
The tool is somewhat specific to our Middleman site builder, and we expect it
will be replaced or obviated in the transition to the Next.js platform... but in
the meantime, it should help make documentation slightly easier to maintain.
* tools/terraform-bundle: refactor to use new provider installer and
provider directory layouts
terraform-bundle now supports a "source" attribute for providers,
uses the new provider installer, and the archive it creates preserves
the new (required) directory hierarchy for providers, under a "plugins"
directory.
This is a breaking change in many ways: source is required for any
non-HashiCorp provider, locally-installed providers must be given a
source (can be arbitrary, see docs) and placed in the expected directory
hierarchy, and the unzipped archive is no longer flat; there is a new
"plugins" directory created with providers in the new directory layout.
This PR also extends the existing test to check the contents of the zip
file.
TODO: Re-enable e2e tests (currently suppressed with a t.Skip)
This commit includes an update to our travis configuration, so the terraform-bundle e2e tests run. It also turns off the e2e tests, which will fail until we have a terraform 0.13.* release under releases.hashicorp.com. We decided it was better to merge this now instead of waiting when we started seeing issues opened from users who built terraform-bundle from 0.13 and found it didn't work with 0.12 - better that they get an immediate error message from the binary directing them to build from the appropriate release.
