When running state mv with a resource source, but the destination
fails, provide a hint that the source is a resource (not an instance)
in case the user means to address it this way
Using the addrTo after it has failed its check means <invalid>/no
address will be printed. Change this throughout, but particularly
add a test for the origin issue for this.
When using the enhanced remote backend, a subset of all Terraform
operations are supported. Of these, only plan and apply can be executed
on the remote infrastructure (e.g. Terraform Cloud). Other operations
run locally and use the remote backend for state storage.
This causes problems when the local version of Terraform does not match
the configured version from the remote workspace. If the two versions
are incompatible, an `import` or `state mv` operation can cause the
remote workspace to be unusable until a manual fix is applied.
To prevent this from happening accidentally, this commit introduces a
check that the local Terraform version and the configured remote
workspace Terraform version are compatible. This check is skipped for
commands which do not write state, and can also be disabled by the use
of a new command-line flag, `-ignore-remote-version`.
Terraform version compatibility is defined as:
- For all releases before 0.14.0, local must exactly equal remote, as
two different versions cannot share state;
- 0.14.0 to 1.0.x are compatible, as we will not change the state
version number until at least Terraform 1.1.0;
- Versions after 1.1.0 must have the same major and minor versions, as
we will not change the state version number in a patch release.
If the two versions are incompatible, a diagnostic is displayed,
advising that the error can be suppressed with `-ignore-remote-version`.
When this flag is used, the diagnostic is still displayed, but as a
warning instead of an error.
Commands which will not write state can assert this fact by calling the
helper `meta.ignoreRemoteBackendVersionConflict`, which will disable the
checks. Those which can write state should instead call the helper
`meta.remoteBackendVersionCheck`, which will return diagnostics for
display.
In addition to these explicit paths for managing the version check, we
have an implicit check in the remote backend's state manager
initialization method. Both of the above helpers will disable this
check. This fallback is in place to ensure that future code paths which
access state cannot accidentally skip the remote version check.
* remove unused code
I've removed the provider-specific code under registry, and unused nil
backend, and replaced a call to helper from backend/oss (the other
callers of that func are provisioners scheduled to be deprecated).
I also removed the Dockerfile, as our build process uses a different
file.
Finally I removed the examples directory, which had outdated examples
and links. There are better, actively maintained examples available.
* command: remove various unused bits
* test wasn't running
* backend: remove unused err
When moving a resource block with multiple instances to a new address
within the same module, we need to ensure that the target module is
present as late as possible. Otherwise, deleting the resource from the
original address triggers pruning, and the module is removed just before
we try to add the resource to it, which causes a crash.
Includes regression test which panics without this code change.
The only situation where `state mv` needs to understand the each mode is
when with resource addresses that may reference a single instance, or a
group of for_each or count instances. In this case we can differentiate
the two by checking the existence of the NoKey instance key.
Clear any Dependencies if there is an entry matching a `state mv` from
address. While stale dependencies won't directly effect any current
operations, clearing the list will allow them to be recreated in their
entirety during refresh. This will help future releases that may rely
solely on the pre-calculated dependencies for destruction ordering.
If a state mv target happens to be a resource that doesn't exist, allow
the creation of the new resource inferring the EachMode from the target
address.
Any command using meta.defaultFlagSet *might* occasionally exit before
the flag package's output got written. This caused flag error messages
to get lost. This PR discards the flag package output in favor of
directly returning the error to the end user.
Create the missing modules in the state when moving resources to a
module that doesn't yet exist. This allows for refactoring of
configuration into new modules, without having to create dummy resources
in the module before the "state mv" operations.
In earlier refactoring we updated these commands to support the new
address and state types, but attempted to partially retain the old-style
"StateFilter" abstraction that originally lived in the Terraform package,
even though that was no longer being used for any other functionality.
Unfortunately the adaptation of the existing filtering to the new types
wasn't exact and so these commands ended up having a few bugs that were
not covered by the existing tests.
Since the old StateFilter behavior was the source of various misbehavior
anyway, here it's removed altogether and replaced with some simpler
functions in the state_meta.go file that are tailored to the use-cases of
these sub-commands.
As well as just generally behaving more consistently with the other
parts of Terraform that use the new resource address types, this commit
fixes the following bugs:
- A resource address of aws_instance.foo would previously match an
resource of that type and name in any module, which disagreed with the
expected interpretation elsewhere of meaning a single resource in the
root module.
- The "terraform state mv" command was not supporting moves from a single
resource address to an indexed address and vice-versa, because the old
logic didn't need to make that distinction while they are two separate
address types in the new logic. Now we allow resources that do not have
count/for_each to be treated as if they are instances for the purposes
of this command, which is a better match for likely user intent and for
the old behavior.
Finally, we also clean up a little some of the usage output from these
commands, which hasn't been updated for some time and so had both some
stale information and some inaccurate terminology.
A lot of commands used `c.Meta.flagSet()` to create the initial flagset for the command, while quite a few of them didn’t actually use or support the flags that are then added.
So I updated a few commands to use `flag.NewFlagSet()` instead to only add the flags that are actually needed/supported.
Additionally this prevents a few commands from using locking while they actually don’t need locking (as locking is enabled as a default in `c.Meta.flagSet()`.
This command isn't yet updated for the new state types, but since we were
not returning a non-successful error status here the tests were just
failing in a weird way instead. Now we'll fail with a message that makes
it clear there is still work to do in the real implementation here.
Due to how often the state and plan types are referenced throughout
Terraform, there isn't a great way to switch them out gradually. As a
consequence, this huge commit gets us from the old world to a _compilable_
new world, but still has a large number of known test failures due to
key functionality being stubbed out.
The stubs here are for anything that interacts with providers, since we
now need to do the follow-up work to similarly replace the old
terraform.ResourceProvider interface with its replacement in the new
"providers" package. That work, along with work to fix the remaining
failing tests, will follow in subsequent commits.
The aim here was to replace all references to terraform.State and its
downstream types with states.State, terraform.Plan with plans.Plan,
state.State with statemgr.State, and switch to the new implementations of
the state and plan file formats. However, due to the number of times those
types are used, this also ended up affecting numerous other parts of core
such as terraform.Hook, the backend.Backend interface, and most of the CLI
commands.
Just as with 5861dbf3fc49b19587a31816eb06f511ab861bb4 before, I apologize
in advance to the person who inevitably just found this huge commit while
spelunking through the commit history.
In order to use a backend for the state commands, we need an initialized
meta. Use a single Meta instance rather than temporary ones to make sure
the backends are initialized properly.
Fixes#12154
The "-backup" flag before for "state *" CLI had some REALLY bizarre behavior:
it would change the _destination_ state and actually not create any
additional backup at all (the original state was unchanged and the
normal timestamped backup still are written). Really weird.
This PR makes the -backup flag work as you'd expect with one caveat:
we'll _still_ create the timestamped backup file. The timestamped backup
file helps make sure that you always get a backup history when using
these commands. We don't want to make it easy for you to overwrite a
state with the `-backup` flag.
