* command/format: check for sensitive NestedTypes
Eventually, the diff formatter will need to be updated to properly
handle NestedTypes, but for now we can let the existing function deal
with them as regular cty.Object-type attributes.
To avoid printing sensitive nested attributes, we will treat any
attribute with at least one sensitive nested attribute as an entirely
sensitive attribute.
* bugfix for Object ImpliedType()
ImpliedType() was returning too early when the given object had optional
attributes, therefore skipping the incredibly important step of
accounting for the nesting mode when returning said type.
A handful of bugs popped up while extending the testing in
plans/objchange. The main themes were failing to recurse through deeply
nested NestedType attributes and improperly building up the ImpliedType.
This commit fixes those issues and extends the test coverage to match.
This commit adds a new field, NestedType, to the Attribute schema, and
extends the current Attribute decoderSpec to account for the new type.
The codepaths are mostly unused and included in a separate commit to
verify that the included changes do not impact any other tests yet.
There are a few places where we want to perform some transformation on a
cty.Value, but require information from the schema. Rather than create
bespoke functions to walk the cty.Value and schema in concert, we can
provide Attribute information from a cty.Path allowing the use of
Value.Transform in these cases.
DecoderSpec may be called many times, and deeply recursive calls are
expensive. Since we cannot synchronize the Blocks themselves due to them
being copied in parts of the code, we use a separate cache to store the
generated Specs.
This new-ish package ended up under "helper" during the 0.12 cycle for
want of some other place to put it, but in retrospect that was an odd
choice because the "helper/" tree is otherwise a bunch of legacy code from
when the SDK lived in this repository.
Here we move it over into the "internal" directory just to distance it
from the guidance of not using "helper/" packages in new projects;
didyoumean is a package we actively use as part of error message hints.
Implement a new provider_meta block in the terraform block of modules, allowing provider-keyed metadata to be communicated from HCL to provider binaries.
Bundled in this change for minimal protocol version bumping is the addition of markdown support for attribute descriptions and the ability to indicate when an attribute is deprecated, so this information can be shown in the schema dump.

Previously we were using the experimental HCL 2 repository, but now we'll
shift over to the v2 import path within the main HCL repository as part of
actually releasing HCL 2.0 as stable.
This is a mechanical search/replace to the new import paths. It also
switches to the v2.0.0 release of HCL, which includes some new code that
Terraform didn't previously have but should not change any behavior that
matters for Terraform's purposes.
For the moment the experimental HCL2 repository is still an indirect
dependency via terraform-config-inspect, so it remains in our go.sum and
vendor directories for the moment. Because terraform-config-inspect uses
a much smaller subset of the HCL2 functionality, this does still manage
to prune the vendor directory a little. A subsequent release of
terraform-config-inspect should allow us to completely remove that old
repository in a future commit.
We can only validate MinItems >= 1 (equiv to "Required") during
decoding, as dynamic blocks each only decode as a single block. MaxItems
cannot be validated at all, also because of dynamic blocks, which may
have any number of blocks in the config.
Due to both the nature of dynamic blocks, and the need for resources to
sometimes communicate incomplete values, we cannot validate MinItems and
MaxItems in CoerceValue.
A provider may not have the data to fill in required block values in all
cases during the resource Read operation. This is more common in import,
because there is no initial configuration or state, and it's possible
some values are only provided in the configuration.
The original intent of MinItems and MaxItems in the schema was to
enforce configuration constraints, not to enforce what the resource
could save in the state. Since the configuration is already statically
validated, and the Schema is validated against the configuration in a
separate step, we can drop these extra validation constraints in
CoerceValue and relax it to only ensure the types conform to what is
expected.
If a block was defined via "dynamic", there will be only one block value
until the expansion is known. Since we can't detect dynamic blocks at
this point, don't verify MinItems while there are unknown values in the
config.
The decoder spec can also only check for existence of a block, so limit
the check to 0 or 1.
In study of existing providers we've found a pattern we werent previously
accounting for of using a nested block type to represent a group of
arguments that relate to a particular feature that is always enabled but
where it improves configuration readability to group all of its settings
together in a nested block.
The existing NestingSingle was not a good fit for this because it is
designed under the assumption that the presence or absence of the block
has some significance in enabling or disabling the relevant feature, and
so for these always-active cases we'd generate a misleading plan where
the settings for the feature appear totally absent, rather than showing
the default values that will be selected.
NestingGroup is, therefore, a slight variation of NestingSingle where
presence vs. absence of the block is not distinguishable (it's never null)
and instead its contents are treated as unset when the block is absent.
This then in turn causes any default values associated with the nested
arguments to be honored and displayed in the plan whenever the block is
not explicitly configured.
The current SDK cannot activate this mode, but that's okay because its
"legacy type system" opt-out flag allows it to force a block to be
processed in this way anyway. We're adding this now so that we can
introduce the feature in a future SDK without causing a breaking change
to the protocol, since the set of possible block nesting modes is not
extensible.
These helpers determine the value that would be used for a particular
schema construct if the configuration construct it represents is not
present (or, in the case of *Block, empty) in the configuration.
This is different than cty.NullVal on the implied type because it might
return non-null "empty" values for certain constructs if their absence
would be reported as such during a decode with no required attributes or
blocks.
Since these error messages get printed in Terraform's output and we
encourage users to share them as part of bug reports, we should avoid
including sensitive information in them to reduce the risk of accidental
exposure.
Objects with DynamicPseudoType attributes can't be coerced within a map
if a concrete type is set. Change the Value type used to an Object when
there is a type mismatch.
This allows basic static validation of a traversal against a schema, to
verify that it represents a valid path through the structural parts of
the schema.
The main purpose of this is to produce better error messages (using our
knowledge of the schema) than we'd be able to achieve by just relying
on HCL expression evaluation errors. This is particularly important for
nested blocks because it may not be obvious whether one is represented
internally by a set or a list, and incorrect usage would otherwise produce
a confusing HCL-oriented error message.
We need to make the collection itself be a tuple or object rather than
list or map in this case, since otherwise all of the elements of the
collection are constrained to be of the same type and that isn't the
intent of a provider indicating that it accepts any type.
This produces a "proposed new state", which already has prior computed
values propagated into it (since that behavior is standard for all
resource types) but could be customized further by the provider to make
the "_planned_ new state".
In the process of implementing this it became clear that our configschema
DecoderSpec behavior is incorrect, since it's producing list values for
NestingList and map values for NestingMap. While that seems like it should
be right, we should actually be using tuple and object types respectively
to allow each block to have a different runtime type in situations where
an attribute is given the type cty.DynamicPseudoType. That's not fixed
here, and so without a further fix list and map blocks will panic here.
The DecoderSpec implementation will be fixed in a subsequent commit.
Any value that is not set in the configuration should decode as a Null
value. Unknown should still be returned if a computed value expression
is unknown.
The "config" package is no longer used and will be removed as part
of the 0.12 release cleanup. Since configschema is part of the
"new world" of configuration modelling, it makes more sense for
it to live as a subdirectory of the newer "configs" package.
