This PR changes manta from being a legacy remote state client to a new backend type. This also includes creating a simple lock within manta
This PR also unifies the way the triton client is configured (the schema) and also uses the same env vars to set the backend up
It is important to note that if the remote state path does not exist, then the backend will create that path. This means the user doesn't need to fall into a chicken and egg situation of creating the directory in advance before interacting with it
Reuse the running consul server for all tests.
Update the lostLockConnection package, since the api client should no
longer lose a lock immediately on network errors.
This is from a commit just after the v1.0.0 release, because it removes
the Porter service dependency for tests. The client api package was not
changed.
Previously we forced all remote state backends to be wrapped in a
BackupState wrapper that generates a local "terraform.tfstate.backup"
file before updating the remote state.
This backup mechanism was motivated by allowing users to recover a
previous state if user error caused an undesirable change such as loss
of the record of one or more resources. However, it also has the downside
of flushing a possibly-sensitive state to local disk in a location where
users may not realize its purpose and accidentally check it into version
control. Those using remote state would generally prefer that state never
be flushed to local disk at all.
The use-case of recovering older states can be dealt with for remote
backends by selecting a backend that has preservation of older versions
as a first-class feature, such as S3 versioning or Terraform Enterprise's
first-class historical state versioning mechanism.
There remains still one case where state can be flushed to local disk: if
a write to the remote backend fails during "terraform apply" then we will
still create the "errored.tfstate" file to allow the user to recover. This
seems like a reasonable compromise because this is done only in an
_exceptional_ case, and the console output makes it very clear that this
file has been created.
Fixes#15339.
Since bucket names must be *globally* unique. By including the project
ID in the bucket name we ensure that people don't step on each other's
feet when testing.
This calls backend.TestBackend() and remote.TestRemoteLocks() for
standardized acceptance tests. It removes custom listing tests since
those are performed by backend.TestBackend(), too.
Since each tests uses its own bucket, all tests can be run in parallel.
This resurrects the previously documented but unused "project" option.
This option is required to create buckets (so they are associated with the
right cloud project) but not to access the buckets later on (because their
names are globally unique).
The code is loosely based on state/remote/gcs_test.go. If the
GOOGLE_PROJECT environment variable is set, this test will
1) create a new bucket; error out if the bucket already exists.
2) create a new state
3) list states and ensure that the newly created state is listed
4) ensure that an object with the expected name exists
5) rum "state/remote".TestClient()
6) delete the state
The bucket is deleted when the test exits, though this may fail if the
bucket it not empty.
This config option was used by the legacy "gcs" client. If set, we're
using it for the default state -- all other states still use the
"state_dir" setting.
Calling context.Background() from outside the main() function is
discouraged. The configure functions are only called from
"…/helper/schema".Backend.Configure which provides the Background context,
i.e. a long-living context we can use for backend communication.
While #16243 added the ability to retry getting a state from S3, Put can
return the same InternalError status. Use the same retry logic when
uploading state to S3.
Add a way to inject network errors by setting an immediate deadline on
open consul connections. The consul client currently doesn't retry on
some errors, and will force us to lose our lock.
Once the consul api client is fixed, this test will fail.
The consul Client is analogous to an http.Client, and we really don't
need more than 1. Configure a single client and store it in the backend.
Replace the default Transport's Dialer to reduce the KeepAlive setting
from 30s to 17s. This avoids racing with the common network timeout
value of 30s, and is also coprime to other common intervals.
Internal errors from S3 are usually transient, and can be immediately retried.
Make 2 attempts at retreiving the state object before returning an error.
In #15884 we adjusted the plan output to give an explicit command to run
to apply a plan, whereas before this command was just alluded to in the
prose.
Since releasing that, we've got good feedback that it's confusing to
include such instructions when Terraform is running in a workflow
automation tool, because such tools usually abstract away exactly what
commands are run and require users to take different actions to
proceed through the workflow.
To accommodate such environments while retaining helpful messages for
normal CLI usage, here we introduce a new environment variable
TF_IN_AUTOMATION which, when set to a non-empty value, is a hint to
Terraform that it isn't being run in an interactive command shell and
it should thus tone down the "next steps" messaging.
The documentation for this setting is included as part of the "...in
automation" guide since it's not generally useful in other cases. We also
intentionally disclaim comprehensive support for this since we want to
avoid creating an extreme number of "if running in automation..."
codepaths that would increase the testing matrix and hurt maintainability.
The focus is specifically on the output of the three commands we give in
the automation guide, which at present means the following two situations:
* "terraform init" does not include the final paragraphs that suggest
running "terraform plan" and tell you in what situations you might need
to re-run "terraform init".
* "terraform plan" does not include the final paragraphs that either
warn about not specifying "-out=..." or instruct to run
"terraform apply" with the generated plan file.
The previous diff presentation was rather "wordy", and not very friendly
to those who can't see color either because they have color-blindness or
because they don't have a color-supporting terminal.
This new presentation uses the actual symbols used in the plan output
and tries to be more concise. It also uses some framing characters to
try to separate the different stages of "terraform plan" to make it
easier to visually navigate.
The apply command also adopts this new plan presentation, in preparation
for "terraform apply" (with interactive plan confirmation) becoming the
primary, safe workflow in the next major release.
Finally, we standardize on the terminology "perform" and "actions" rather
than "execute" and "changes" to reflect the fact that reading is now an
action and that isn't actually a _change_.
Previously the rendered plan output was constructed directly from the
core plan and then annotated with counts derived from the count hook.
At various places we applied little adjustments to deal with the fact that
the user-facing diff model is not identical to the internal diff model,
including the special handling of data source reads and destroys. Since
this logic was just muddled into the rendering code, it behaved
inconsistently with the tally of adds, updates and deletes.
This change reworks the plan formatter so that it happens in two stages:
- First, we produce a specialized Plan object that is tailored for use
in the UI. This applies all the relevant logic to transform the
physical model into the user model.
- Second, we do a straightforward visual rendering of the display-oriented
plan object.
For the moment this is slightly overkill since there's only one rendering
path, but it does give us the benefit of letting the counts be derived
from the same data as the full detailed diff, ensuring that they'll stay
consistent.
Later we may choose to have other UIs for plans, such as a
machine-readable output intended to drive a web UI. In that case, we'd
want the web UI to consume a serialization of the _display-oriented_ plan
so that it doesn't need to re-implement all of these UI special cases.
This introduces to core a new diff action type for "refresh". Currently
this is used _only_ in the UI layer, to represent data source reads.
Later it would be good to use this type for the core diff as well, to
improve consistency, but that is left for another day to keep this change
focused on the UI.
A TLS config was being assigned to a Transport in a nil http.Client. The
Transport is built in the consul config by default, but the http.Client
is not built until later in NewClient.
Go 1.9 adds this new function which, when called, marks the caller as
being a "helper function". Helper function stack frames are then skipped
when trying to find a line of test code to blame for a test failure, so
that the code in the main test function appears in the test failure output
rather than a line within the helper function itself.
This covers many -- but probaly not all -- of our test helpers across
various packages.
Added locking support via blob leasing (requires that an empty state is
created before any lock can be acquired.
Added support for "environments" in much the same way as the S3 backend.
S3 accepts objects with a leading slash and strips them off. This works
fine except in our workspace hierarchy, which then can no longer find
suffixes matching the full key name.
When remote backend imeplemtations create a new named state, they may
need to acquire a lock and/or save an actual empty state to the backend.
Copy this behavior in the inmem backend for testing.
Updated the vendored consul which no longer requires the channel adapter
to convert a `chan stuct{}` to a `<-chan struct{}`.
Call testutil.NewTestServerConfigT with the new signature.
Forward-port the plan state check from the 0.9 series.
0.10 has improved the serial handling for the state, so this adds
relevant comments and some more test coverage for the case of an
incrementing serial during apply.
When a consul lock is lost, there is a possibility that the associated
session is still active. Most commonly, the long request to watch the
lock key may error out, while the session is continually refreshed at a
rate of TTL/2.
First have the lock monitor retry the lock internally for at least 10
seconds (5 attempts with the default 2 second wait time). In most cases
this will reconnect on the first try, keeping the lock channel open.
If the consul lock can't recover itself, then cancel the session as soon
as possible (terminating the PreiodicRenew will call Session.Destroy),
and start over. In the worse case, the consul agents were split, and the
session still exists on the leader so we may need to wait for the old
session TTL, plus the LockWait time to renew the lock.
We use a Context for the cancellation channels here, because that
removes the need to worry about double-closes and nil channels. It
requires an awkward adapter goroutine for now to convert the Done()
`<-chan` to a `chan` for PeriodicRenew, but makes the rest of the code
safer in the long run.
Remote state implementations may initialize a lineage when creating a
new named state (i.e. "workspace"). The tests were ignoring that initial
lineage to write a new state to the backend.
