The shim layer for the legacy SDK type system is not precise enough to
guarantee it will produce identical results between plan and apply. In
particular, values that are null during plan will often become zero-valued
during apply.
To avoid breaking those existing providers while still allowing us to
introduce this check in the future, we'll introduce a rather-hacky new
flag that allows the legacy SDK to signal that it is the legacy SDK and
thus disable the check.
Once we start phasing out the legacy SDK in favor of one that natively
understands our new type system, we can stop setting this flag and thus
get the additional safety of this check without breaking any
previously-released providers.
No other SDK is permitted to set this flag, and we will remove it if we
ever introduce protocol version 6 in future, assuming that any provider
supporting that protocol will always produce consistent results.
It seems that all of the tools we run here are now sufficiently
modules-aware to run without problems in modules mode, and indeed running
_not_ in modules mode was causing problems with locating packages in
mockgen.
Previously we were using the type name requested in the import to select
the schema, but a provider is free to return additional objects of other
types as part of an import result, and so it's important that we perform
schema selection separately for each returned object.
If we don't do this, we get confusing downstream errors where the
resulting object decodes to the wrong type and breaks various invariants
expected by Terraform Core.
The testResourceImportOther test in the test provider didn't catch this
previously because it happened to have an identical schema to the other
resource type being imported. Now the schema is changed and also there's
a computed attribute we can set as part of the refresh phase to make sure
we're completing the Read call properly during import. Refresh was working
correctly, but we didn't have any tests for it as part of the import flow.
Any state modifying functions can only be run once during the plan-apply
cycle. When regenerating the Diff during ApplyResourceChange, strip out
all StateFunc and CustomizeDiff functions from the schema.
Thew NewExtra diff field was where config data that was modified by a
StateFunc was stored, and needs to be maintained between plan and apply.
During PlanResourceChange, store any NewExtra data from the Diff in the
PlannedPrivate data, and re-insert the NewExtra data into the Diff
generated during ApplyResourceChange.
The rest of Terraform is still using uint64 for this in various spots, but
we'll update that gradually later. We use int64 here because that matches
what's used in our protobuf definition, and unsigned integers are not
portable across all of the protobuf target languages anyway.
When verifying the signature of the SHA256SUMS file, we have been
hardcoding HashiCorp's public GPG key and using it as the keyring.
Going forward, Terraform will get a list of valid public keys for a
provider from the Terraform Registry (registry.terraform.io), and use
them as the keyring for the openpgp verification func.
The main significant change here is that the package name for the proto
definition is "tfplugin5", which is important because this name is part
of the wire protocol for references to types defined in our package.
Along with that, we also move the generated package into "internal" to
make it explicit that importing the generated Go package from elsewhere is
not the right approach for externally-implemented SDKs, which should
instead vendor the proto definition they are using and generate their
own stubs to ensure that the wire protocol is the only hard dependency
between Terraform Core and plugins.
After this is merged, any provider binaries built against our
helper/schema package will need to be rebuilt so that they use the new
"tfplugin5" package name instead of "proto".
In a future commit we will include more elaborate and organized
documentation on how an external codebase might make use of our RPC
interface definition to implement an SDK, but the primary concern here
is to ensure we have the right wire package name before release.
Since protoc is not go-gettable, and most development tasks in Terraform
won't involve recompiling protoc files anyway, we'll use a separate
mechanism for these.
This way "go generate" only depends on things we can "go get" in the
"make tools" target.
In a later commit we should also in some way specify a particular version
of protoc to use so that we don't get "flapping" regenerations as
developers work with different versions, but the priority here is just to
make "make generate" minimally usable again to restore the dev workflow
documented in the README.
This also includes some updates that resulted from running "make generate"
and "make protobuf" after those Makefile changes were in place.
Even if a provider doesn't indicate a specific attribute as the cause of
a resource operation error, we know the error relates to some aspect of
the resource, so we'll include that approximate information in the result
so that we don't produce user-hostile error messages with no context
whatsoever.
Later we can hopefully refine this to place the source range on the header
of the configuration block rather than on an empty part of the body, but
that'll require some more complex rework here and so for now we'll just
accept this as an interim state so that the user can at least figure out
which resource block the error is coming from.
An earlier change made the tests not compile here. We now need to use the
legacyPluginMap function, since pluginMap has now been replaced with
helpers to produce new-style plugin _sets_.
Previously we just left these out of the plan altogether, but in the new
plan types we intentionally include change information for every resource
instance, even if no changes are actually planned, to allow alternative
plan file viewers to show what isn't changing as well as what is.
Previously we would construct both provisioner and the provider objects if
either callback was set, but this is incorrect because a plugin should
actually set only one of these at a time, depending on what kind of plugin
it is.
Managing which function need to be shared between the terraform plugin
and the helper plugin without creating cycles was becoming difficult.
Move all functions related to converting between terraform and proto
type into plugin/convert.
Here we add the GRPCProvisioner and GRPCProvider which implement the
core provisioners.Interface and providers.Interface, and translate
betweeen the core types and the grpc protocol.
These will allow easier testing of the grpc endpoints in isolation.
Mocks are generated for ProviderClient, ProvisionerClient,
Provisioner_ProvisionResourceClient, and
Provisioner_ProvisionResourceServer using `go generate`
support the requested platform.
If the newest version of a provider which matches the version
constraints does not support the requested platform, filter the list of
available versions by platform support and try again.
