This work was done against APIs that were already changed in the branch
before work began, and so it doesn't apply to the v0.12 development work.
To allow v0.12 to merge down to master, we'll revert this work out for now
and then re-introduce equivalent functionality in later commits that works
against the new APIs.
After a bunch of recent changes/rebasing our vendored dependencies got a
little out of sync w.r.t transitive dependencies through codebases that
are not themselves Go Modules yet.
Even if a provider doesn't indicate a specific attribute as the cause of
a resource operation error, we know the error relates to some aspect of
the resource, so we'll include that approximate information in the result
so that we don't produce user-hostile error messages with no context
whatsoever.
Later we can hopefully refine this to place the source range on the header
of the configuration block rather than on an empty part of the body, but
that'll require some more complex rework here and so for now we'll just
accept this as an interim state so that the user can at least figure out
which resource block the error is coming from.
This ensures more HCL1/HIL-like behaviors when dealing with nested blocks
that are not set in the configuration, which is important for
compatibility with helper/schema's validation logic.
This is a more specialized version of ConfigValueFromHCL2 which is
specifically for config values that represent the content of a block
body in the configuration.
By using the schema of that block we can more precisely emulate the old
HCL1/HIL behaviors by distinguishing attributes from blocks and applying
some slightly different behaviors for the handling of null values and
of empty collections that are representing the absense of blocks of a
particular type.
Use the new SimpleDiff method of the provider so that the diff isn't
altered by ForceNew attributes.
Always set an "id" as RequiresReplace so core knows an instance will be
replaced, even if all ForceNew attributes are filtered out due to
ignore_changes.
This reinstates an old behavior that was lost in the reorganization of how
we deal with the -var and -var-file options.
This fix is verified by TestApply_planVars now passing.
In the new implementation of collecting variables I initially forgot the
JSON variant of terraform.tfvars.
This fix is verified by TestApply_varFileDefaultJSON now passing.
Terraform now handles any actual "diffing" of resource, and the existing
Diff functions are only used to shim the schema.Provider to the new
methods. Since terraform is handling what used to be the Diff, the
provider now should not modify the diff based on RequiresNew due to it
interfering with the ignore_changes handling.
Since we need to know the index to know the result type for a tuple, we
need a special case here to deal with that situation and return
cty.DynamicVal; we can't predict the result type exactly until we know the
element type.
This was previously targeting the old state manager and state types, so it
needed some considerable rework to get it working again with the new state
types.
Since our new resource address syntax lacks the weird extra .deposed
special case we had before, we instead interpret addresses as
whole-instance addresses here and remove the deposed objects along with
the current one (if present), since this is more likely to match with
user expectations because we don't consider deposed objects to be
independently addressable in any other situation.
With that said, to be more explicit about what is going on we do now have
a -dry-run mode and maintain separate counts of current and deposed
instances so that we can expose that in the UI where relevant.
The tests in here are illustrating that this package is not yet finished,
but we plan to run a release before we finish this and so we'll skip those
tests for now with the intent of reinstating this again once we return
to finish this up.
We temporarily disabled this because it needed some further work to update
it for the new state models, which has now been done.
We no longer need the configuration objects for the outputs because the
state itself contains all of the information needed for displaying these.
We used to treat the "id" attribute of a resource as special and elevate
it into its own struct field "ID" in the state, but the new state format
and provider protocol treats it just as any other attribute.
However, it's still useful to show the value of a single identifying
attribute when there isn't room in the UI for showing all of the
attributes, and so here we take a new strategy of considering "id" along
with some other conventional names as special only in the UI layer.
This new heuristic approach can be adjusted over time as new provider
patterns emerge, but for now it covers some common conventions we've seen
in real providers.
With that said, since all existing providers made for Terraform versions
prior to v0.12 were forced to set "id", we won't see any use of other
attributes here until providers are updated to remove the placeholder
ids they were generating in cases where an id was not actually relevant
but was forced by the old protocol. At that point the UX should be
improved by showing a more relevant attribute instead.
We now also allow for the possibility of no id at all, since that is valid
for resources that exist only within the Terraform state, like the ones
from the "random" and "tls" providers.
This command isn't yet updated for the new state types, but since we were
not returning a non-successful error status here the tests were just
failing in a weird way instead. Now we'll fail with a message that makes
it clear there is still work to do in the real implementation here.
We previously stubbed most of this out because it hadn't yet been updated
to support the new state types, etc.
This restores all of the previous behavior as covered by the tests.
We intentionally remove one behavior that was not covered by the tests:
we used to allow retrieval of outputs from non-root modules using the
-module option, but since we no longer persist non-root outputs in the
state we can no longer support this without a full expression evaluation
walk, and that'd be overkill for this otherwise-simple command. Descendant
module outputs are not part of the public interface of a configuration
anyway, so accessing them from outside in this way is an anti-pattern.
(For debugging scenarios it is still possible to access these from
"terraform console", which _does_ do a full evaluation graph walk to
prepare its evaluation scope.)
The plan file writer requires a backend config to be present, but we don't
really need one for the sake of _this_ test, since we don't activate the
backend to render a plan graph, and so we just write in a placeholder.
