* command/show: add support for -json output for state
* command/jsonconfig: do not marshal empty count/for each expressions
* command/jsonstate: continue gracefully if the terraform version is somehow missing from state
* command/jsonplan: sort resources by address
* command/show: extend test case to include resources with count
* command/json*: document resource ordering as consistent but undefined
* command/show: properly marshal attribute values to json
marshalAttributeValues in jsonstate and jsonplan packages was returning
a cty.Value, which json/encoding could not marshal. These functions now
convert those cty.Values into json.RawMessages.
* command/jsonplan: planned values should include resources that are not changing
* command/jsonplan: return a filtered list of proposed 'after' attributes
Previously, proposed 'after' attributes were not being shown if the
attributes were not WhollyKnown. jsonplan now iterates through all the
`after` attributes, omitting those which are not wholly known.
The same was roughly true for after_unknown, and that structure is now
correctly populated. In the future we may choose to filter the
after_unknown structure to _only_ display unknown attributes, instead of
all attributes.
* command/jsonconfig: use a unique key for providers so that aliased
providers don't get munged together
This now uses the same "provider" key from configs.Module, e.g.
`providername.provideralias`.
* command/jsonplan: unknownAsBool needs to iterate through objects that are not wholly known
* command/jsonplan: properly display actions as strings according to the RFC,
instead of a plans.Action string.
For example:
a plans.Action string DeleteThenCreate should be displayed as ["delete",
"create"]
Tests have been updated to reflect this.
* command/jsonplan: return "null" for unknown list items.
The length of a list could be meaningful on its own, so we will turn
unknowns into "null". The same is less likely true for maps and objects,
so we will continue to omit unknown values from those.
We missed this on the initial update pass because this was calling
directly into the module package API rather than going through the Meta
methods that we updated for the new config loader.
m.installModules here is the same method that "terraform init" is using
for this purpose, ensuring the two will behave the same way. This changes
the output a little compared to the old installer, but it still includes
the important information about where each module is coming from.
This possibility was lost in the rewrite to use HCL2, but it's used by
a number of external utilities and text editor integrations, so we'll
restore it here.
Using the stdin/stdout mode is generally preferable for text editor use
since it allows formatting of the in-memory buffer rather than directly
the file on disk, but for editors that don't have support for that sort of
tooling it can be convenient to just launch a single command and directly
modify the on-disk file.
Since the HCL formatter only works with tokens, it can in principle be
called with any input and produce some output. However, when given invalid
syntax it will tend to produce nonsensical results that may drastically
change the input file and be hard for the user to undo.
Since there's no strong reason to try to format an invalid or incomplete
file, we'll instead try parsing first and fail if parsing does not
complete successfully.
Since we talk directly to the HCL API here this is only a _syntax_ check,
and so it can be applied to files that are invalid in other ways as far
as Terraform is concerned, such as using unsupported top-level block types,
resource types that don't exist, etc.
There are a few constructs from 0.11 and prior that cause 0.12 parsing to
fail altogether, which previously created a chicken/egg problem because
we need to install the providers in order to run "terraform 0.12upgrade"
and thus fix the problem.
This changes "terraform init" to use the new "early configuration" loader
for module and provider installation. This is built on the more permissive
parser in the terraform-config-inspect package, and so it allows us to
read out the top-level blocks from the configuration while accepting
legacy HCL syntax.
In the long run this will let us do version compatibility detection before
attempting a "real" config load, giving us better error messages for any
future syntax additions, but in the short term the key thing is that it
allows us to install the dependencies even if the configuration isn't
fully valid.
Because backend init still requires full configuration, this introduces a
new mode of terraform init where it detects heuristically if it seems like
we need to do a configuration upgrade and does a partial init if so,
before finally directing the user to run "terraform 0.12upgrade" before
running any other commands.
The heuristic here is based on two assumptions:
- If the "early" loader finds no errors but the normal loader does, the
configuration is likely to be valid for Terraform 0.11 but not 0.12.
- If there's already a version constraint in the configuration that
excludes Terraform versions prior to v0.12 then the configuration is
probably _already_ upgraded and so it's just a normal syntax error,
even if the early loader didn't detect it.
Once the upgrade process is removed in 0.13.0 (users will be required to
go stepwise 0.11 -> 0.12 -> 0.13 to upgrade after that), some of this can
be simplified to remove that special mode, but the idea of doing the
dependency version checks against the liberal parser will remain valuable
to increase our chances of reporting version-based incompatibilities
rather than syntax errors as we add new features in future.
* command/show: added test scaffold for json output
More test cases will be added once the basic shape of the tests is
validated.
- command/json* packages now sort resources by address, matching
behavior elsewhere
- using cmp in tests instead of reflect.DeepEqual for the diffs
- updating expected output in tests to match sorting
Previously we were doing this rather inconsistently: some commands would
do it and others would not. By doing it here we ensure we always apply the
same normalization, regardless of which operation we're running.
This normalization is mostly for cosmetic purposes in error messages, but
it also ends up being used to populate path.module and path.root and so
it's important that we always produce consistent results here so that
we don't produce flappy changes as users work with different commands.
The fact that thus mutates a data structure as a side-effect is not ideal
but this is the best place to ensure it always gets applied without doing
any significant refactoring, since everything after this point happens in
the backend package where the normalizePath method is not available.
* command/show: adding functions to aid refactoring
The planfile -> statefile -> state logic path was getting hard to follow
with blurry human eyes. The getPlan... and getState... functions were
added to help streamline the logic flow. Continued refactoring may follow.
* command/show: use ctx.Config() instead of a config snapshot
As originally written, the jsonconfig marshaller was getting an error
when loading configs that included one or more modules. It's not clear
if that was an error in the function call or in the configloader itself,
but as a simpler solution existed I did not dig too far.
* command/jsonplan: implement jsonplan.Marshal
Split the `config` portion into a discrete package to aid in naming
sanity (so we could have for example jsonconfig.Resource instead of
jsonplan.ConfigResource) and to enable marshaling the config on it's
own.
Older versions of terraform could save the backend hash number in a
value larger than an int.
While we could conditionally decode the state into an intermediary data
structure for upgrade, or detect the specific decode error and modify
the json, it seems simpler to just decode into the most flexible value
for now, which is a uint64.
