Terraform was redundantly handling `//dir` notation which should be
handled by go-getter. Rather than allowing go-getter to unpack a subdir
as expected, the subdir was stripped off and accessed through the module
configuration.
This scheme will no longer works now that go-getter supports `*`
subdirectories
(e.g. `//*` would be analogous to `tar --strip-components=1`).
Even though this allows Terraform to use go-getter's native unpacking,
detection is still done separately because Detect requires a `pwd` which
is dependent on the configuration directory and not known to the
global FolderStorage.
Add a getter.Detector for detecting registry modules and looking up
the download location of the latest version. This is essentially a
temporary API until constraint solving is supported by the registry, as
then we'll have to supply the full set of known contraints to the
registry at once for resolution and we will fetch specific versions of
modules.
There is some additional, early validation on the "count" meta-argument
that verifies that only suitable variable types are used, and adding local
values to this whitelist was missed in the initial implementation.
It seems that this somehow got lost in the commit/rebase shuffle and
wasn't caught by the tests that _did_ make it because they were all using
just one file.
As a result of this bug, locals would fail to work correctly in any
configuration with more than one .tf file.
Along with restoring the append/merge behavior, this also reworks some of
the tests to exercise the multi-file case as better insurance against
regressions of this sort in future.
This fixes#15969.
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.
We added the description field in 0.9 but we never parsed it because we
didn't have a use for it. As we prepare to use this field, let's start
parsing it out
This escapes all characters that might have a special interpretation when embedded into a portion of a URL, including slashes, equals signs and ampersands.
Since Terraform's internals are not 8-bit clean (it assumes UTF-8
strings), we can't implement raw gzip directly. We're going to add
support where it makes sense for passing data to attributes as
base64 so that the result of this function can be used.
Previously we were using the "semver" library to parse version
constraints, but we switched over to go-version and encapsulated it
inside our own plugin/discovery package to reduce dependency sprawl in
the code.
This particular situation was missed when updating references to the new
path, which meant that our validation code disagreed with the rest of
the code about what is considered a valid version constraint string.
By using the correct function, we ensure that we catch early any invalid
versions.
Previously the logic for inferring a provider type from a resource name
was buried a utility function in the 'terraform' package. Instead here we
lift it up into the 'config' package where we can make broader use of it
and where it's easier to discover.
In future we will support version constraints on providers, so we're
reserving this attribute name that is currently not used by any builtin
providers.
For now using this will produce an error, since the rest of Terraform
(outside of the config parser) doesn't currently have this notion and we
don't want people to start trying to use it until its behavior is fully
defined and implemented.
It may be used by third-party providers, so this is a breaking change
worth warning about in CHANGELOG but one whose impact should be small.
Any third-party providers using this name should migrate to using a new
attribute name instead moving forward.
Prior to Terraform 0.7, lists in Terraform were just a shallow abstraction
on top of strings with a magic delimiter between items. Wrapping a single
string in brackets in the configuration was Terraform's prompt that it
needed to split the string on that delimiter during interpolation.
In 0.7, when first-class lists were added, this convention was preserved
by flattening lists-of-lists by one level when they were encountered in
configuration. However, there was an oversight in that change where it
did not correctly handle the case where the inner list was unknown.
In #14135 we removed some code that was flattening partially-unknown lists
into fully-unknown (untyped) values. This inadvertently exposed the missed
case from the previous paragraph, causing issues for list-wrapped splat
expressions with unknown members. While this worked fine for resources,
due to some fixup done inside helper/schema, this did not work for other
interpolation contexts such as module blocks.
Various attempts to fix this up and restore the flattening behavior
selectively were unsuccessful, due to a proliferation of assumptions all
over the core code that would be too risky to change just to fix this bug.
This change, then, takes the different approach of removing the
requirement that splats be presented inside list brackets. This
requirement didn't make much sense anymore anyway, since no other
list-returning expression had this constraint and so the rest of Terraform
was already successfully dealing with both cases.
This leaves us with two different scenarios:
- For resource arguments, existing normalization code in helper/schema
does its own flattening that preserves compatibility with the common
practice of using bracketed splats. This change proves this with a test
within the "test" provider that exercises the whole Terraform core and
helper/schema stack that assigns bracketed splats to list and set
attributes.
- For arguments in other blocks, such as in module callsites, the
interpolator's own flattening behavior applies to known lists,
preserving compatibility with configurations from before
partially-computed splats were possible, but those wishing to use
partially-computed splats are required to drop the surrounding brackets.
This is less concerning because this scenario was introduced only in
0.9.5, so the scope for breakage is limited to those who adopted this
new feature quickly after upgrading.
As of this commit, the recommendation is to stop using brackets around
splats but the old form continues to be supported for backward
compatibility. In a future _major_ version of Terraform we will probably
phase out this legacy form to improve consistency, but for now both
forms are acceptable at the expense of some (pre-existing) weird behavior
when _actual_ lists-of-lists are used.
This addresses #14521 by officially adopting the suggested workaround of
dropping the brackets around the splat. However, it doesn't yet allow
passing of a partially-unknown list between modules: that still violates
assumptions in Terraform's core, so for the moment partially-unknown lists
work only within a _single_ interpolation expression, and cannot be
passed around between expressions. Until more holistic work is done to
improve Terraform's type handling, passing a partially-unknown splat
through to a module will result in a fully-unknown list emerging on
the other side, just as was the case before #14135; this change just
addresses the fact that this was failing with an error in 0.9.5.

We've been incorrectly validating (or not validating at all) the
requirement that certain blocks be followed by a name string, to prohibit
e.g. this:
variable {}
and:
variable = ""
Before this change we were catching this for most constructs only if
there were no _valid_ blocks of the same name in the same file. For
modules in particular, we were not catching this at all.
Now we detect this for all kinds of block (resources had a pre-existing
check, so aren't touched here) and produce a different error message
depending on which of the above incorrect forms are used.
This fixes#13575.
stringer has changed the boilerplate it generates in a recent version.
We'd previously updated to the new format but accientally rolled back
to the old while merging a long-running feature branch.
This restores us back to the new format again.
This new function allows using a search within one list to filter another list. For example, it can be used to find the ids of EC2 instances in a particular AZ.
The interface is made slightly awkward by the constraints of HIL's featureset.
#13847
This method mirrors that of config.Backend, so we can compare the
configration of a backend read from a config vs that of a backend read
from a state. This will prevent init from reinitializing when using
`-backend-config` options that match the existing state.
The variable validator assumes that any AST node it gets from an
interpolation walk is an indicator of an interpolation. Unfortunately,
back in f223be15 we changed the interpolation walker to emit a LiteralNode
as a way to signal that the result is a literal but not identical to the
input due to escapes.
The existence of this issue suggests a bit of a design smell in that the
interpolation walker interface at first glance appears to skip over all
literals, but it actually emits them in this one situation. In the long
run we should perhaps think about whether the abstraction is right here,
but this is a shallow, tactical change that fixes#13001.
golang/tools commit 23ca8a263 changed the format of the leading comment
to comply with some new standards discussed here:

This is the result of running generate with the latest version of
stringer. Everyone working on Terraform will need to update stringer
after this is merged, to avoid reverting this:
go get -u golang.org/x/tools/cmd/stringer
Adds `basename` and `dirname` interpolation. I want to add a `stack` tag to our infrastructure, the value of which is set to `${basename(path.cwd)}`. We currently use `${replace(path.cwd, "/^.+\\//", "")}` instead, but this is extremeley unreadable. The existance of a `basename` function would be very useful for this use case.
I don't have an immediate use case for a `dirname` function, but it seemed reasonable to add it as well.
