For users who in previous versions have relied on our lack of checking for
whether variables are declared, they may previously have seen an
overwhelming number of warnings when running Terraform v0.12.
Here we cap that number at three specific warnings and then one general
warning, so we can still give a specific source location for the first
couple (for users who have genuinely made a typo) but summarize away a
large number for those who are seeing this because they've not yet
migrated to using environment variables.
As well as some general consolidation and reorganizing, this also includes
some updated advice for making the best use of new Terraform v0.12
features to create infrastructure building-blocks.
In particular, the "Module Usage" documentation is now consolidated into
the configuration section in order to bring all of our general language
documentation together, and the top-level "Modules" section is now
primarily focused on module _authors_ as an audience, covering topics such
as publishing modules and designing them for reuse.
Providers were not strict (and were not forced to be) about customizing
the diff when a computed attribute needed to be updated during apply.
The fix we have in place to prevent loss of information during the
helper/schema apply process would add in single missing value back in.
The first place this was caught was when we attempt to fix up the
flatmapped attributes. The 1->0 count error is now better handled by our
cty.Value normalization step, so we can remove the special apply case
here altogether
The next place is in normalizeNullValues, and since the intent was to
re-insert missing zero-value lists and sets, adding a check for a length
of 0 protects us from adding in extra elements.
The new test fixture emulated common provider behavior of re-computing
values without customizing the diff. Since we can work around it, and
core will provider appropriate warnings, the shims should try to
maintain the legacy behavior.
Previously, these commands were not checking if the user specified a
`-plugin-dir` flag during `terraform init` and would therefor fail if
providers were not in one of the standard directories.
Fixes#20547
The NewExtra values are stored outside the diff from plan, and the
original keys may not contain the ~ prefix. Adding the NewExtra back
into the diff with the mismatched key was causing an entire new set
element to be populated. Since this symbol isn't used to apply the diff
in helper/schema, we can simply strip them out.
The hcl2shims will always add in the timeouts block, because there's no
way to differentiate a null single block from an empty one in the
flatmapped state. Since we are only concerned with keeping the prior
timeouts value, always set the new value to null, and then copy over the
prior value if it exists.
When the user aborts input, it may end up as an unknown value, which
needs to be converted to null for PrepareConfig.
Allow PrepareConfig to accept null config values in order to fill in
missing defaults.
When a planfile is supplied to the `terraform show -json` command, the
context that loads only included schemas for resources in the plan. We
found an edge case where removing a data source from the configuration
(though only if there are no managed resources from the same provider)
would cause jsonstate.Marshal to fail because the provider schema wasn't
in the plan context.
jsonplan.Marshal now takes two schemas, one for plan and one for state.
If the state schema is nil it will simply use the plan schemas.
* command/show: fixing bugs in modulecalls
jsonconfig and jsonplan both had subtle bugs with the logic for
marshaling module calls that only showed up when multiple modules were
referenced. This PR fixes those bugs and extends the existing tests to
include multiple modules.
* sort all the things, mostly for tests
* docs: update plan command documentation. Fixes#19235
* docs: added a missing reserved variable name. Fixes#19159.
* website: add note that resource names cannot start with a number
* website: add some notes to the 0.12 upgrade guide
https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/pull/19389 introduced a change to
the provider GPG signature verification process, and removed the
hardcoded HashiCorp GPG key.
While the changes were intended and are still planned for a future
release, we should still be verifying all providers in the TF 0.12.0
release against the HashiCorp GPG key until a more robust key
verification procedure is in place.
Fixes https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/20527
The announcement post contains the information about the temporary
situation where not all of the providers are compatible yet. Linking there
rather than duplicating the information in the upgrade guide means we'll
be able to update in one place as the situation changes.
The new normalization should make preventing those changes unnecessary,
and will also prevent extra empty elements from being added when
resources are refreshed.
We are now allowing the legacy SDK to opt out of the safety checks we try
to do after plan and apply, and so in such cases the before/after values
in planned changes may be inconsistent with our usual rules.
To avoid adding lots of extra complexity to the diff renderer to deal with
these situations, instead we'll normalize the handling of nested blocks
prior to using these values.
In the long run it'd be better to do this normalization at the source,
immediately after we receive an object from a provider using the opt-out,
but we're doing this at the outermost layer for now to avoid risking
unintended impacts on other Terraform Core components when we're just
about to enter the beta phase of the v0.12.0 release cycle.
Now that we have an opt-out to let the legacy SDK return values that are
inconsistent with the new conventions for representing configuration,
various parts of Terraform must now be prepared to deal with
inconsistencies.
This function normalizes the most egregious inconsistencies relating to
the representation of nested blocks, freeing any recipient of its result
from worrying about these inconsistencies itself.
