The helper/schema diff process loses empty strings, causing them to show
up as unset (null) during apply. Besides failing to show as set by
GetOk, the absence of the value also triggers the schema to insert a
default value again during apply.
It would also be be preferable if the defaults weren't re-evaluated
again during ApplyResourceChange, but that would require a more invasive
patch to the field readers, and ensuring the empty string is stored in
the plan should block the default.
This also includes a previously-missing test that verifies the behavior
described here, implemented as a planning context test for consistency
with how the other ignore_changes tests are handled.
This includes a fix to make sure that an expression with a static string
index, like foo["bar"], will be parsed as a traversal rather than as a
dynamic index expression.
* Correct fmt -check
With `-check=false` the exit status is always zero.
With `-check=true` the exit status is zero when all files are properly formatted and non-zero otherwise.
* update fmt documentation to use short form for -diff and -check
We previously had some notes about handling configuration variants just
tacked on to the "dependency inversion" section as an afterthought, but
this idea is a major use-case for dependency inversion so it deserves its
own section and a specific example.
When upgrading from a flatmap state, unset blocks would not exist in the
state, while they will represented as empty in the new cty.Value. This
will cause an unexpected diff in the first plan after upgrade. This
situation may normally be applied with no impact, but some providers may
have unexpected behavior, and if the attributes force replacement it may
require manual alteration of the state to complete the upgrade.
When a Diff contains a NewRemoved attribute (which would have been null
in the planned state), the final value is often the "zero" value string
for the type, which the provider itself still applies to the state.
Rather than risking a change of behavior in helper/schema by fixing the
inconsistency, we'll remove the NewRemoved attributes after apply to
prevent further issues resulting from the change in planned value.
Re-seeding the PRNG every time only serves to make the output an
obfuscated timestamp. On windows with a low clock resolution, this
manifests itself by outputting the same value on calls within the
minimum time delta of the clock.
