The cidrsubnets function signature is intentionally very low-level and
focused on the core requirement of generating addresses. This registry
module then wraps it with some additional functionality to make it more
convenient to generate and use subnet address ranges.
This is a companion to cidrsubnet that allows bulk-allocation of multiple
subnet addresses at once, with automatic numbering.
Unlike cidrsubnet, cidrsubnets allows each of the allocations to have a
different prefix length, and will pack the networks consecutively into the
given address space. cidrsubnets can potentially create more complicated
addressing schemes than cidrsubnet alone can, because it's able to take
into account the full set of requested prefix lengths rather than just
one at a time.
* command/import: properly use `-provider` supplied on the command line
The import command now attaches the provider configuration in the resource
instance, if set. That config is attached to the NodeAbstractResource
during the import graph building. This prevents errors when the implied
provider is not actually in the configuration at all, which may happen
when a configuration is using the `-beta` version of a provider (and
only that `-beta` version).
* command/import: fix variable reassignment and update docs
Fixes#22564
For a long time now we've been advising against the use of provisioners,
but our documentation for them is pretty prominent on the website in
comparision to the better alternatives, and so it's little surprise that
many users end up making significant use of them.
Although in the longer term a change to our information architecture would
probably address this even better, this is an attempt to be explicit about
the downsides of using provisioners and to prominently describe the
alternatives that are available for common use-cases, along with some
reasons why we consider them to be better.
I took the unusual step here of directly linking to specific provider
documentation pages about the alternatives, even though we normally try
to keep the core documentation provider-agnostic, because otherwise that
information tends to be rather buried in the provider documentation and
thus the reader would be reasonable to use provisioners just because we're
not giving specific enough alternative recommendations.
* website/formatdate: update example
The given example was showing HOUR:MONTH instead of HOUR:MINUTE
Fixes#22598
* website/import: remove reference to no-longer-working option
Users can no longer supply `-config=""` to tell Terraform not to load
configuration for import.
Fixes#22294
* website/provisioners: `host` is required in connection blocks
Fixes#21877
* website/variables: clarify variable definition precedence
It was not entirely obvious that a variable could not be assigned
multiples times in a single source.
Fixes#21682
* website/backend/local: add `workspace_dir` attribute
Fixes#21391
* website/output: `sensitive` outputs are redacted in output
Fixes#21502
* website/backends: sidebar order tweak
It makes sense for backend 'configuration' to appear before 'init'.
Fixes#13796
* Revert "website/formatdate: update example"

Reference: https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/16697
Enumerates a set of regular file names from a given glob pattern. Implemented via the Go stdlib `path/filepath.Glob()` functionality. Notably, stdlib does not support `**` or `{}` extended patterns. See also: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/11862
To support the extended glob patterns, it will require adding a dependency on a third party library or adding our own matching code.
The Terraform Enterprise brand has now been split into two parts:
- Terraform Cloud is the application that helps teams use Terraform together,
with remote state storage, a shared run environment, etc.
- Terraform Enterprise is the on-premise distribution that lets enterprises run
a private instance of the Terraform Cloud application.
The former TFE docs have been split accordingly.
