In earlier incarnations of these transformers we used the set of all
available providers for tasks such as generating implied provider
configuration nodes.
However, in modern Terraform we can extract all of the information we need
from the configuration itself, and so these transformers weren't actually
using this set of provider addresses.
These also ended up getting left behind as sets of string rather than sets
of addrs.Provider in our earlier refactoring work, which didn't really
matter because the result wasn't used anywhere anyway.
Rather than updating these to use addrs.Provider instead, I've just
removed the unused arguments entirely in the hope of making it easier to
see what inputs these transformers use to make their decisions.
The public interface for loading schemas is Context.Schemas, which can
take into account the context's records of which plugin versions and
checksums we're expecting. loadSchemas is an implementation detail of
that, representing the part we run only after we've verified all of the
plugins.
Releasing a new major protocol version requires coordination between a
few different projects and codebases, and it's easy to forget a step.
This commit introduces a doc to keep track of these steps, making it
less likely one will be omitted or forgotten.
For resources which are planned to move, render the previous run address
as additional information in the plan UI. For the case of a move-only
resource (which otherwise is unchanged), we also render that as a
planned change, but without any corresponding action symbol.
If all changes in the plan are moves without changes, the plan is no
longer considered "empty". In this case, we skip rendering the action
symbols in the UI.
This package level variable can be overridden at link time to allow
temporarily disabling the UI warning when experimental features are
enabled. This makes it easier to understand how UI will render when the
feature is no longer experimental.
This change is only for those developing Terraform.
The main purpose of this change is to avoid a problem where new golden
files added to certain directories for test purposes (like .log)
shouldn't be ignored.
Cleaning up a bit more and broadening the definition, this removes
ignore rules for artifacts of Terraform itself (state files, plans).
It's generally not recommended to be using this codebase as your
Terraform working directory anyway; build here, test elsewhere.
This is the first test exercising the basic functionality of config-driven
move. We previously had it skipped because Terraform's previous design
of treating all three of the state artifacts as mutable attributes of
terraform.Context meant that it was too late during planning to deal with
the move operations, and thus this test was failing.
Thanks to the previous commit, which changes the terraform.Context API
such that we can defer creating the three state artifacts until we're
already doing planning, this test now works and shows Terraform correctly
handling a resource that was formerly called "a" and is now called "b",
with a "moved" block recording that renaming.
Previously terraform.Context was built in an unfortunate way where all of
the data was provided up front in terraform.NewContext and then mutated
directly by subsequent operations. That made the data flow hard to follow,
commonly leading to bugs, and also meant that we were forced to take
various actions too early in terraform.NewContext, rather than waiting
until a more appropriate time during an operation.
This (enormous) commit changes terraform.Context so that its fields are
broadly just unchanging data about the execution context (current
workspace name, available plugins, etc) whereas the main data Terraform
works with arrives via individual method arguments and is returned in
return values.
Specifically, this means that terraform.Context no longer "has-a" config,
state, and "planned changes", instead holding on to those only temporarily
during an operation. The caller is responsible for propagating the outcome
of one step into the next step so that the data flow between operations is
actually visible.
However, since that's a change to the main entry points in the "terraform"
package, this commit also touches every file in the codebase which
interacted with those APIs. Most of the noise here is in updating tests
to take the same actions using the new API style, but this also affects
the main-code callers in the backends and in the command package.
My goal here was to refactor without changing observable behavior, but in
practice there are a couple externally-visible behavior variations here
that seemed okay in service of the broader goal:
- The "terraform graph" command is no longer hooked directly into the
core graph builders, because that's no longer part of the public API.
However, I did include a couple new Context functions whose contract
is to produce a UI-oriented graph, and _for now_ those continue to
return the physical graph we use for those operations. There's no
exported API for generating the "validate" and "eval" graphs, because
neither is particularly interesting in its own right, and so
"terraform graph" no longer supports those graph types.
- terraform.NewContext no longer has the responsibility for collecting
all of the provider schemas up front. Instead, we wait until we need
them. However, that means that some of our error messages now have a
slightly different shape due to unwinding through a differently-shaped
call stack. As of this commit we also end up reloading the schemas
multiple times in some cases, which is functionally acceptable but
likely represents a performance regression. I intend to rework this to
use caching, but I'm saving that for a later commit because this one is
big enough already.
The proximal reason for this change is to resolve the chicken/egg problem
whereby there was previously no single point where we could apply "moved"
statements to the previous run state before creating a plan. With this
change in place, we can now do that as part of Context.Plan, prior to
forking the input state into the three separate state artifacts we use
during planning.
However, this is at least the third project in a row where the previous
API design led to piling more functionality into terraform.NewContext and
then working around the incorrect order of operations that produces, so
I intend that by paying the cost/risk of this large diff now we can in
turn reduce the cost/risk of future projects that relate to our main
workflow actions.
Here we wire through the "move results" into the graph walk data
structures so that all of the the nodes which produce
plans.ResourceInstanceChange values can capture the "PrevRunAddr" for
each resource instance.
This doesn't actually quite work yet, because the logic in Context.Plan
isn't actually correct and so the updated state from
refactoring.ApplyMoves isn't actually visible as the "previous run state".
For that reason, the context test in this commit is currently skipped,
with the intent of re-enabling it once the updated state is properly
propagating into the plan graph walk and thus we can actually react to
the result of the move while choosing actions for those addresses.
In order to expose the effect of any relevant "moved" statements we dealt
with prior to creating the plan, we'll record with each
ResourceInstanceChange both is current address and the address it was
tracked at for the previous run.
To save consumers of these objects from having to special-case the
situation where there _was_ no previous run (e.g. because this is a Create
change), we'll just pretend the previous run address was the same as the
current address in that case, the same as for an update without any
renaming in effect.
This includes a breaking change to the plan file format, but one that
doesn't require a version number increment because there is no ambiguity
between the two formats and so mismatched parsers will already fail with
an error message.
As of this commit we've just added the new field but not yet populated it
with any useful information: it always just matches Addr. A future commit
will wire this up to the result of applying the moves so that we can
populate it correctly. We also don't yet expose this new information
anywhere in the UI layer.
While blocks were not allowed to be computed by the provider, nested
objects can be. Remove the errors regarding blocks and verify unknown
values are valid.
In the last paragraph, the word "generated" is in the wrong tense for the sentence. The correct word is "generate" (unless I misunderstand the sentence 🙂).
