Support for cross-domain authentication has been added and mapping
environment variables to the correct domain settings has been
fixed.
In addition, support for clouds.yaml files has been added.
This is an initial partial description of the plugin protocol focused
mainly on explaining the purpose of the .proto files. In subsequent
updates we will also document the negotiation protocol, etc.
For this first pass the goal was just to publish some information that was
already available in an internal design document so that it's visible to
SDK implementers. It is focused on the .proto versioning strategy because
that was the main topic of the internal design documentation this was
based on.
Add versioned tfplugin proto files to the docs directory, for easier
reference. The latest version starts as a symlink to the current
file used for generated the tfplugin package in ./internal/tfplugin5.
When changing the protocol version, the old file must be copied to
./docs/plugin-protocol/, and a new symlink created for the latest
version.
When a constraint is defined including build metadata, go-version ignores
this, and if a user explicitly requests a build version, this will now return that version.
Also covers cases when a user adds build metadata to a non-equality constraint,
or in a constraint with multiple conditions (ex. >0.8.0+abc, <1.0.0), and gives
and error when this occurs.
There have been a few questions about this so far which indicated that the
previous docs for this feature were very lacking. This is an attempt to
describe more completely what "any" means, and in particular that it isn't
actually a type at all but rather a placeholder for a type to be selected
dynamically.

Prior to Terraform 0.12, providers were not required to implement the `MigrateState` function when increasing the `SchemaVersion` above `0`. Effectively there is no flatmap state difference between version 0 and defined `SchemaVersion` or lowest `StateUpgrader` `Version` (whichever is lowest) when `MigrateState` is undefined, so here we remove the error and increase the schema version automatically.
Makre sure private data is maintained all the way to destroy. This
slipped through, since private data isn't used much for current
providers, except for timeouts.
Based on some common questions and feedback since the v0.12.0 release,
here we add some small additional content to the documentation for
"dynamic" blocks, covering how to access the keys of the collection being
iterated over and how to fold multiple collections into a single one to
achieve the effect of a nested iteration.
* command/show: marshal the state snapshot from the planfile
The planfile contains a state snapshot with certain resources updated
(outputs and datasources). Previously `terraform show -json PLANFILE`
was using the current state instead of the state inside the plan as
intended.
This caused an issue when the state included a terraform_remote_state
datasource. The datasource's state gets refreshed - and therefore
upgraded to the current state version - during plan, but that won't
persist to state until apply.
* update comment to reflect new return
These follow the same principle as jsondecode and jsonencode, but use
YAML instead of JSON.
YAML has a much more complex information model than JSON, so we can only
support a subset of it during decoding, but hopefully the subset supported
here is a useful one.
Because there are many different ways to _generate_ YAML, the yamlencode
function is forced to make some decisions, and those decisions are likely
to affect compatibility with other real-world YAML parsers. Although the
format here is intended to be generic and compatible, we may find that
there are problems with it that'll we'll want to adjust for in a future
release, so yamlencode is therefore marked as experimental for now until
the underlying library is ready to commit to ongoing byte-for-byte
compatibility in serialization.
The main use-case here is met by yamldecode, which will allow reading in
files written in YAML format by humans for use in Terraform modules, in
situations where a higher-level input format than direct Terraform
language declarations is helpful.
