This PR implements 2 changes to the merge function.
- Rather than always defining the merge return type as dynamic, return
a precise type when all argument types match, or all possible object
attributes are known.
- Always return a value containing all keys when the keys are known.
This allows the use of merge output in for_each, even when keys are yet
to be determined.
These are intended to make it easier to work with arbitrary data
structures whose shape might not be known statically, such as the result
of jsondecode(...) or yamldecode(...) of data from a separate system.
For example, in an object value which has attributes that may or may not
be set we can concisely provide a fallback value to use when the attribute
isn't set:
try(local.example.foo, "fallback-foo")
Using a "try to evaluate" model rather than explicit testing fits better
with the usual programming model of the Terraform language where values
are normally automatically converted to the necessary type where possible:
the given expression is subject to all of the same normal type conversions,
which avoids inadvertently creating a more restrictive evaluation model
as might happen if this were handled using checks like a hypothetical
isobject(...) function, etc.
The fallback type for GetResource from an EachMap is a cty.Object,
because resource schemas may contain dynamically typed attributes.
Check for an Object type in the evaluation of self, to use the proper
GetAttr method when extracting the value.
self references do not need to be added to `managedResource`, and in
fact that could cause issues later if self is allowed in contexts other
than managed resources.
Coalesce 2 cases in the Referenceable switch, be take the
ContainingResource address of an instance beforehand.
Previously we were using the experimental HCL 2 repository, but now we'll
shift over to the v2 import path within the main HCL repository as part of
actually releasing HCL 2.0 as stable.
This is a mechanical search/replace to the new import paths. It also
switches to the v2.0.0 release of HCL, which includes some new code that
Terraform didn't previously have but should not change any behavior that
matters for Terraform's purposes.
For the moment the experimental HCL2 repository is still an indirect
dependency via terraform-config-inspect, so it remains in our go.sum and
vendor directories for the moment. Because terraform-config-inspect uses
a much smaller subset of the HCL2 functionality, this does still manage
to prune the vendor directory a little. A subsequent release of
terraform-config-inspect should allow us to completely remove that old
repository in a future commit.
This is a companion to cidrsubnet that allows bulk-allocation of multiple
subnet addresses at once, with automatic numbering.
Unlike cidrsubnet, cidrsubnets allows each of the allocations to have a
different prefix length, and will pack the networks consecutively into the
given address space. cidrsubnets can potentially create more complicated
addressing schemes than cidrsubnet alone can, because it's able to take
into account the full set of requested prefix lengths rather than just
one at a time.
Continue only evaluating resource at a whole and push the indexing of
the resource down into the expression evaluation.
The exception here is that `self` must be an instance which must be
extracted from the resource. We now also add the entire resource to the
context, which was previously only partially populated with the self
referenced instance.
In order to allow lazy evaluation of resource indexes, we can't index
resources immediately via GetResourceInstance. Change the evaluation to
always return whole Resources via GetResource, and index individual
instances during expression evaluation.
This will allow us to always check for invalid index errors rather than
returning an unknown value and ignoring it during apply.

Enumerates a set of regular file names from a given glob pattern. Implemented via the Go stdlib `path/filepath.Glob()` functionality. Notably, stdlib does not support `**` or `{}` extended patterns. See also: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/11862
To support the extended glob patterns, it will require adding a dependency on a third party library or adding our own matching code.
These existing upstream cty functions allow matching strings against
regular expression patterns, which can be useful if you need to consume
a non-standard string format that Terraform doesn't (and can't) have a
built-in function for.
* lang/funcs: lookup() can work with maps of lists, maps and objects
lookup() can already handle aribtrary objects of (whatever) and should
handle maps of (whatever) similarly.
Mistakenly using dynamic on an attribute will lead to a panic when
attempting to resolve variable references with a partial body, because
the dynamic blocks have yet to be expanded and validated. Check that the
block element type is actually an object before generating a schema.
The function would previously panic when one or more null values were among the arguments.
The new behavior treats nulls as empty strings, therefore, it removes them.
These follow the same principle as jsondecode and jsonencode, but use
YAML instead of JSON.
YAML has a much more complex information model than JSON, so we can only
support a subset of it during decoding, but hopefully the subset supported
here is a useful one.
Because there are many different ways to _generate_ YAML, the yamlencode
function is forced to make some decisions, and those decisions are likely
to affect compatibility with other real-world YAML parsers. Although the
format here is intended to be generic and compatible, we may find that
there are problems with it that'll we'll want to adjust for in a future
release, so yamlencode is therefore marked as experimental for now until
the underlying library is ready to commit to ongoing byte-for-byte
compatibility in serialization.
The main use-case here is met by yamldecode, which will allow reading in
files written in YAML format by humans for use in Terraform modules, in
situations where a higher-level input format than direct Terraform
language declarations is helpful.
This is similar to the function of the same name in Python, generating a
sequence of numbers as a list that can then be used in other
sequence-oriented operations.
The primary use-case for it is to turn a count expressed as a number into
a list of that length, which can then be iterated over or passed to a
collection function to produce that number of something else, as shown
in the example at the end of its documentation page.
Added higher-level test for matchkeys to exercise mixing
types in searchset. This had to be in the functions tests so the HCL
auto conversion from tuple to list would occur.
`matchkeys` was returning a (false) error if the searchset was a
variable, since then the type of the keylist and searchset parameters
would not match.
This does slightly change the behavior: previously matchkeys would
produce an error if the parameters were not of the same type, for e.g.
if searchset was a list of strings and keylist was a list of integers.
This no longer produces an error.
If a dynamic block is evaluated zero times, the body content will
contain 0 blocks. Allow the probe for ConfigModeAttr to accept that no
blocks with a matching attribute should still be converted to a block if
they are called with dynamicExpand.
Previously the type-selection codepath for an input tuple referred
unconditionally to the start and end index values. In the Type callback,
only the types of the arguments are guaranteed to be known, so any access
to the values must be guarded with an .IsKnown check, or else the function
will not short-circuit properly when an unknown value is passed.
Now we will check the start and end indices are in range when we have
enough information to do so, but we'll return an approximate result if
either is unknown.
