Sets rely on diffs being complete for all elements, even when they are
unchanged. When encountering a DiffSuppressFunc inside a set the diffs
were being dropped entirely, possible causing set elements to be lost.
Previously we were using the type name requested in the import to select
the schema, but a provider is free to return additional objects of other
types as part of an import result, and so it's important that we perform
schema selection separately for each returned object.
If we don't do this, we get confusing downstream errors where the
resulting object decodes to the wrong type and breaks various invariants
expected by Terraform Core.
The testResourceImportOther test in the test provider didn't catch this
previously because it happened to have an identical schema to the other
resource type being imported. Now the schema is changed and also there's
a computed attribute we can set as part of the refresh phase to make sure
we're completing the Read call properly during import. Refresh was working
correctly, but we didn't have any tests for it as part of the import flow.
This checking helper is frequently used in provider tests for data
sources, as a shorthand to verify that an attribute of the data source
matches with the corresponding attribute on a managed resource.
Since we now leave empty collections null in more cases, this function is
sometimes effectively asked to verify that a given attribute is _unset_
in both the data source and the resource, so here we slightly adjust the
definition of the check to consider two nulls to be equal to one another,
which at this layer manifests as the keys not being present in the state
attributes map at all.
This check function didn't previously have tests, so this commit also adds
a basic suite of tests, including coverage for the new behavior.
While copyMissingValues was meant to re-insert empty values that were
null after apply, it turns out plan is sometimes not predictable as
well.
normalizeNullValue is meant to fix up any null/empty transitions between
to values, and be useful during plan as well. For plan the function only
concerns itself with individual, known values, and skips sets entirely.
The result of running with plan == true is that only changes between
empty and null collections should be fixed.
The new decoder is more precise, and unpacks the timeout block into a
single map, which ResourceTimeout.ConfigDecode was updated to handle.
We however still need to work with legacy versions of terraform, with
the old decoder.
With the new diff.Apply we can keep the diff mostly intact, but we need
turn off all RequiresNew flags so that the prior state is not removed
from the apply.
One quirky aspect of our import feature is that we allow the importer to
produce additional resources alongside the one that was imported, such as
to create separate rules for each rule of an imported security group.
Providers need to be able to set the types of these other resources since
they may not match the "main" resource type. They do this by calling
ResourceData.SetType, which in turn sets InstanceState.Ephemeral.Type.
In our shims here we therefore need to copy that out into our new TypeName
field so that the new core import code can see it and create the right
type in the state.
Testing this required a minor change to the test harness to allow the
ImportStateCheck function to see the resource type.
Historically helper/schema did not support non-primitive map attributes
because they cannot be represented unambiguously in flatmap. When we
initially implemented CoreConfigSchema here we mapped that situation to
a nested block of mode NestingMap, even though that'd never worked until
now, assuming that it'd be harmless because providers wouldn't be using
it.
It turns out that some providers are, in fact, incorrectly populating
a TypeMap schema with Elem: &schema.Resource, apparently under the false
assumption that it would constrain the keys allowed in the map. In
practice, helper/schema has just been ignoring this and treating such
attributes as map of string. (#20076)
In order to preserve the behavior of these existing incorrectly-specified
attribute definitions, here we mimic the helper/schema behavior by
presenting as an attribute of type map(string).
These attributes have also been shown in some documentation as nested
blocks (with no equals sign), so that'll need to be fixed in user
configurations as they upgrade to Terraform 0.12. However, the existing
upgrade tool rules will take care of that as a natural consequence of the
name being indicated as an attribute in the schema, rather than as a block
type.
This fixes#20076.
Our new diff handling no longer requires stripping the empty diffs out,
and provider may be relying on some of the empty-value quirks in
helper/schema.
Due to various inprecisions in the old SDK implementation, applying the
generated diff can potentially make changes to the data structure that
have no real effect, such as replacing an empty list with a null list or
vice-versa.
Although we can't totally eliminate such diff noise, here we attempt to
avoid it in situations where there are _only_ meaningless changes -- where
the prior state and planned state are equivalent -- by just echoing back
the prior state verbatim to ensure that Terraform will treat it as a noop
change.
If there _are_ some legitimate changes then the result may still contain
meaningless changes alongside it, but that is just a cosmetic problem for
the diff renderer, because the meaningless changes will be ignored
altogether during a subsequent apply anyway. The primary goal here is just
to ensure we can converge on a fixpoint when there are no explicit changes
in the configuration.
This adds unexpected values in some cases, and since the case this
handles is only within set objects, we'll deal woth this when tackling
the sets themselves.
Cycle through the shim operations after Apply, to ensure that we can
converge on a stable value for for Plan. While the shims produce valid
values in both directions, helper/schema sometimes does not agree on
which containers should be empty or null.
There are a few constructs from 0.11 and prior that cause 0.12 parsing to
fail altogether, which previously created a chicken/egg problem because
we need to install the providers in order to run "terraform 0.12upgrade"
and thus fix the problem.
This changes "terraform init" to use the new "early configuration" loader
for module and provider installation. This is built on the more permissive
parser in the terraform-config-inspect package, and so it allows us to
read out the top-level blocks from the configuration while accepting
legacy HCL syntax.
In the long run this will let us do version compatibility detection before
attempting a "real" config load, giving us better error messages for any
future syntax additions, but in the short term the key thing is that it
allows us to install the dependencies even if the configuration isn't
fully valid.
Because backend init still requires full configuration, this introduces a
new mode of terraform init where it detects heuristically if it seems like
we need to do a configuration upgrade and does a partial init if so,
before finally directing the user to run "terraform 0.12upgrade" before
running any other commands.
The heuristic here is based on two assumptions:
- If the "early" loader finds no errors but the normal loader does, the
configuration is likely to be valid for Terraform 0.11 but not 0.12.
- If there's already a version constraint in the configuration that
excludes Terraform versions prior to v0.12 then the configuration is
probably _already_ upgraded and so it's just a normal syntax error,
even if the early loader didn't detect it.
Once the upgrade process is removed in 0.13.0 (users will be required to
go stepwise 0.11 -> 0.12 -> 0.13 to upgrade after that), some of this can
be simplified to remove that special mode, but the idea of doing the
dependency version checks against the liberal parser will remain valuable
to increase our chances of reporting version-based incompatibilities
rather than syntax errors as we add new features in future.
Provider tests often rely on checking values contained within sets, by
directly accessing their flatmapped representation. In order to provider
the test harness with the expected set hashes, the sets must be
generated by the schema.Resource itself.
During the test we now build a fixed map of the providers, which should
only contain schema.Provider instances, and pass them into each
TestStep. The individual schema.Resource instances can then be pulled
from the providers, and used to recreate the state from the cty.Value
returned by the core operations.
Stricter type handling in the new shims may add empty containers into
the state where they were previously elided. Since the detection of
missing and empty containers in the legacy state was never reliable,
allow TestCheckNoResourceAttr to succeed if the key is a container count
index, and the value is "0"
Missing containers were often erroneously kept in the state, but since
the addition of the new provider shims, they can often be correctly
eliminated. There are however many tests that check for a "0" count in
the flatmap state when there shouldn't be a key at all. This addition
looks for a container count key and "0" pair, and allows for the key to
be missing.
There may be some tests negatively effected by this which were
legitimately checking for empty containers, but those were also not
reliably detected, and there should be much fewer tests involved.
Zero values and empty containers can be lost during the shimming
process, and during the provider's Apply step.
If we have known zero value containers and primitives in the source,
which appear as null values in the destination, we copy over the zero
value. Sets (and lists to an extent) are more difficult, since there
before and after indexes may not correlate. In that case we take the
entire container if it's wholly known, expecting the provider to have
correctly handled the value.
Due to incorrect use of a loop iterator variable inside a closure, all of
the given providers were ending up with the same factory function.
Now we copy the factory function to a local within the loop first so that
each iteration has its own variable.
This is the second round of similar bugs in this function, so we'll also
add a test case for it to reduce the risk of future regressions given that
most real callers don't exercise this with multiple providers in practice.
We use a shim to convert from the new state model back to the old because
the provider test API is still using the old API throughout. However, the
shim was not preserving the schema version recorded in the new-style state
and so a round-trip through this shim would cause the schema versions to
all revert to zero.
This can cause trouble with the destroy phase of provider tests because
(for API legacy reasons) we round-trip from old state back to new again
before the destroy phase and thus causing the providers to try to upgrade
from state version zero even though the data was already latest, which
can cause errors because state upgrades are generally not idempotent.
With the introduction of explicit "null" in 0.12 it's possible for a value
that is unknown during plan to become a known null during apply, so we
need to slightly weaken our validation rules to accommodate that, in
particular skipping the validation of conflicting attributes if the result
could potentially be valid after the unknown values become known.
This change is in the codepath that is common to both 0.12 and 0.11
callers, but that's safe because 0.11 re-runs validation during the apply
step and so will still catch problems here, albeit in the apply step
rather than in the plan step, thus matching the 0.12 behavior. This new
behavior is a superset of the old in the sense that everything that was
valid before is still valid.
The implementation here also causes us to skip all other validation for
an attribute whose value is unknown. Most of the downstream validation
functions handle this directly anyway, but again this doesn't add any new
failure cases, and should clean up some of the rough edges we've seen with
unknown values in 0.11 once people upgrade to 0.12-compatible providers.
Any issues we now short-circuit during planning will still be caught
during apply.
While working on this I found that the existing "Not a list" test was not
actually testing the correct behavior, so this also includes a tweak to
that to ensure that it really is checking the "should be a list" path
rather than the "cannot be set" codepath it was inadvertently testing
before.
This causes the output to include additional helpful context such as
the values of variables referenced in the config, etc. The output is in
the same format as normal Terraform CLI error output, though we don't
retain a source code cache in this codepath so it will not include a
source code snippet.
Previously the test harness was preloading schemas from the providers
before running any test steps.
Since terraform.NewContext already deals with loading provider schemas,
we can instead just use the schemas it loaded for our shimming needs,
avoiding the need to reimplement the schema lookup behavior and thus
the need to create a throwaway provider instance with which to do it.
Previously we were running the factory function only once when
constructing the provider resolver, which means that all contexts created
from that resolver share the same provider instance.
Instead now we will call the given factory function once for each
instantiation, ensuring that each caller ends up with a separate object
as would be the case in real-world use.
The added test in this commit, without the fix, will make d.Set return
the following error:
`Invalid address to set: []string{"ports", "0", "set"}`
This was due to the fact that setSet in feild_writer_map tried to
convert a slice into a set by creating a temp set schema and calling
writeField on that with the address(`[]string{"ports", "0", "set"}"` in
this case). However the temp schema was only for the set and not the
whole schema as seen in the address so, it should have been `[]string{"set"}"`
so it would align with the schema.
This commits adds another variable there(tempAddr) which will only
contain the last entry of the address that would be the set key, which
would match the created schema
This commit potentially fixes the problem described in #16331
Any state modifying functions can only be run once during the plan-apply
cycle. When regenerating the Diff during ApplyResourceChange, strip out
all StateFunc and CustomizeDiff functions from the schema.
Thew NewExtra diff field was where config data that was modified by a
StateFunc was stored, and needs to be maintained between plan and apply.
During PlanResourceChange, store any NewExtra data from the Diff in the
PlannedPrivate data, and re-insert the NewExtra data into the Diff
generated during ApplyResourceChange.
Errors were being ignore with the intention that they would be caught
later in validation, but it turns out we nee dto catch those earlier.
The legacy schemas also allowed providers to set and empty string for a
bool value, which we need to handle here, since it's not being handled
from user input like a normal config value.
The rest of Terraform is still using uint64 for this in various spots, but
we'll update that gradually later. We use int64 here because that matches
what's used in our protobuf definition, and unsigned integers are not
portable across all of the protobuf target languages anyway.
When normalizing flatmapped containers, compare the attributes to the
prior state and preserve pre-existing zero-length or unknown values. A
zero-length value that was previously unknown is preserved as a
zero-length value, as that may have been computed as such by the
provider.
Since the SDK's schema system conflates attributes and nested blocks, it's
possible to state some nonsensical schema situations such as:
- A nested block is both optional but has MinItems > 0
- A nested block is entirely computed but has MinItems or MaxItems set
Both of these weird situations are handled here in the same way that the
existing helper/schema validation code would've handled them: by
effectively disabling the MinItems/MaxItems checks where they would've
been ignored before.
the MinItems/MaxItems
The SDK has a mechanism that effectively makes it possible to declare an
attribute as being _conditionally_ required, which is not a concept that
Terraform Core is aware of.
Since this mechanism is in practice only used for a small UX improvement
in prompting for these values interactively when the environment variable
is not set, we avoid here introducing all of this complexity into the
plugin protocol by just having the provider selectively modify its schema
if it detects that such an attribute might be set dynamically.
This then prevents Terraform Core from validating the presence of the
argument or prompting for a new value for it, allowing the null value to
pass through into the provider so that the default value can be generated
again dynamically.
This is a kinda-kludgey solution which we're accepting here because the
alternative would be a much-more-complex two-pass decode operation within
Core itself, and that doesn't seem worth it.
This fixes#19139.
The main significant change here is that the package name for the proto
definition is "tfplugin5", which is important because this name is part
of the wire protocol for references to types defined in our package.
Along with that, we also move the generated package into "internal" to
make it explicit that importing the generated Go package from elsewhere is
not the right approach for externally-implemented SDKs, which should
instead vendor the proto definition they are using and generate their
own stubs to ensure that the wire protocol is the only hard dependency
between Terraform Core and plugins.
After this is merged, any provider binaries built against our
helper/schema package will need to be rebuilt so that they use the new
"tfplugin5" package name instead of "proto".
In a future commit we will include more elaborate and organized
documentation on how an external codebase might make use of our RPC
interface definition to implement an SDK, but the primary concern here
is to ensure we have the right wire package name before release.
In order to prevent mismatched states between read/plan/apply, we need
to ensure that the attributes are generated consistently each time.
Because of the various ways in which helper/schema and the hcl2 shims
interpret empty values, the only way to ensure consistency is to always
remove them altogether.
This makes sure the diff is generated with the matching set ids from
helper/schema.
Update the tests to add ID fields to the state, which will exists in
practice, since any state traversing through the shims will have the ID
inserted.
helper/schema will remove "timeouts" from the config, and stash them in
the diff.Meta map. Terraform sees "timeouts" as a regular config block,
so needs them to be present in the state in order to not show a diff.
Have the GRPCProviderServer shim copy all timeout values into any state
it returns to provide consistent diffs in core.
Resource timeouts were a separate config block, but did not exist in the
resource schema. Insert any defined timeouts when generating the
configshema.Block so that the fields can be accepted and validated by
core.
`Any()` allows any single passing validation of multiple `SchemaValidateFunc` to pass validation to cover cases where a standard validation function does not cover the functionality or to make error messaging simpler.
Example provider usage:
```go
ValidateFunc: validation.Any(
validation.IntAtLeast(42),
validation.IntAtMost(5),
),
```
`All()` combines the outputs of multiple `SchemaValidateFunc`, to reduce the usage of custom validation functions that implement standard validation functions.
Example provider usage:
```go
ValidateFunc: validation.All(
StringLenBetween(5, 42),
StringMatch(regexp.MustCompile(`[a-zA-Z0-9]+`), "value must be alphanumeric"),
),
```
`IntInSlice()` is the `int` equivalent of `StringInSlice()`
Example provider usage:
```go
ValidateFunc: validation.IntInSlice([]int{30, 60, 120})
```
Output from unit testing:
```
$ make test TEST=./helper/validation
==> Checking that code complies with gofmt requirements...
go generate ./...

```
The helper/resource unit tests will panic, because they were using the
legacy terraform.MockResourceProvider, which doesn't have the same
internals required by the new GRPC shims.
Fail these tests for now, and a new test provider will need to be made
out of a schema.Provider instance.
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.
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.
While the schema Diff fucntion returns a nil diff when creating an empty
(except for id) resource, the Apply function expects the diff to be
initialized and ampty.
PlanResourceChange isn't returning the diff, but rather it is returning
the destired state. If the propsed state results in a nil diff, then,
the propsed state is what should be returned.
Make sure Meta fields are not nil, as the schema package expects those
to be initialised.
An earlier change introduced a new function testConfig to the main code
for this package, which conflicted with a function of the same name in
the test code.
Here we rename the function from the test code, allowing for the more
generally-named testConfig to be the one in the main code.
The "id" field is assumed to always exist, and must have a valid value.
Set "id" to unknown when planning new resource changes to indicate that
it will be computed.
Previously we just left these out of the plan altogether, but in the new
plan types we intentionally include change information for every resource
instance, even if no changes are actually planned, to allow alternative
plan file viewers to show what isn't changing as well as what is.
Managing which function need to be shared between the terraform plugin
and the helper plugin without creating cycles was becoming difficult.
Move all functions related to converting between terraform and proto
type into plugin/convert.
Due to how often the state and plan types are referenced throughout
Terraform, there isn't a great way to switch them out gradually. As a
consequence, this huge commit gets us from the old world to a _compilable_
new world, but still has a large number of known test failures due to
key functionality being stubbed out.
The stubs here are for anything that interacts with providers, since we
now need to do the follow-up work to similarly replace the old
terraform.ResourceProvider interface with its replacement in the new
"providers" package. That work, along with work to fix the remaining
failing tests, will follow in subsequent commits.
The aim here was to replace all references to terraform.State and its
downstream types with states.State, terraform.Plan with plans.Plan,
state.State with statemgr.State, and switch to the new implementations of
the state and plan file formats. However, due to the number of times those
types are used, this also ended up affecting numerous other parts of core
such as terraform.Hook, the backend.Backend interface, and most of the CLI
commands.
Just as with 5861dbf3fc49b19587a31816eb06f511ab861bb4 before, I apologize
in advance to the person who inevitably just found this huge commit while
spelunking through the commit history.
The new helper/plugin package contains the grpc servers for handling the
new plugin protocol
The GRPCProviderServer and GRPCProvisionerServer handle the grpc plugin
protocol, and convert the requests to the legacy schema.Provider and
schema.Provisioner methods.
In order to not require state migrations to be supported in both
MigrateState and StateUpgraders, the legacy provider codepath needs to
handle the StateUpgraders transparently during Refresh.
This adds some of the required shim functions to the schema package.
While this further bloats the already huge package, adding the helpers
here was significantly less disruptive than refactoring types into
separate packages to prevent import cycles.
The majority of tests here are directly adapted from existing schema
tests to provide as many known good values to the shims as possible.
It turns out that state upgrades need to be handled differently since
providers are going to be backwards compatible. This means that new
state upgrades may still be stored in the flatmap format when used wih
terraform 0.11. Because we can't account for the specific version which
could produce a legacy state, all future state upgrades need to record
the schema types for decoding.
Rather than defining a single Upgrade function for states, we now have a
list of functions, each of which handle upgrading a specific version to
the next. In practice this isn't much different from the way many
resources implement upgrades themselves, with a separate function for
each version dispatched from the MigrateState function. The only added
burden is the recording of the schema type, and we intend to supply
tools and helper function to prevent the need to copy the entire
existing schema in all cases.
This is the provider-side UpgradeState implementation for a particular
resource. This new function will be called to upgrade a saved state with
an old schema version to the current schema.
UpgradeState also requires a record of the last schema and version that
could have been stored as a flatmapped state. If the stored state is in
the legacy flatmap format, this will allow the provider to properly
decode the flatmapped state into the expected structure for the new json
encoded state. If the stored state's version is below that of the
LegacySchema.Version value, it will first be processed by the legacy
MigrateState function.
The update protocol shims will also check for this this, but eventually
"id" will only be a normal attribute, and we shouldn't have to special
case this.
When converting a legacy schemaMap to a configschema, we need to add
"id" as a required attribute to top-level resources if it's not
declared.
The "id" field will be required to interoperate with the legacy helper
schema, since the presence of an id was used to indicate the existence
of a resource.
The "config" package is no longer used and will be removed as part
of the 0.12 release cleanup. Since configschema is part of the
"new world" of configuration modelling, it makes more sense for
it to live as a subdirectory of the newer "configs" package.
Due to how deeply the configuration types go into Terraform Core, there
isn't a great way to switch out to HCL2 gradually. As a consequence, this
huge commit gets us from the old state to a _compilable_ new state, but
does not yet attempt to fix any tests and has a number of known missing
parts and bugs. We will continue to iterate on this in forthcoming
commits, heading back towards passing tests and making Terraform
fully-functional again.
The three main goals here are:
- Use the configuration models from the "configs" package instead of the
older models in the "config" package, which is now deprecated and
preserved only to help us write our migration tool.
- Do expression inspection and evaluation using the functionality of the
new "lang" package, instead of the Interpolator type and related
functionality in the main "terraform" package.
- Represent addresses of various objects using types in the addrs package,
rather than hand-constructed strings. This is not critical to support
the above, but was a big help during the implementation of these other
points since it made it much more explicit what kind of address is
expected in each context.
Since our new packages are built to accommodate some future planned
features that are not yet implemented (e.g. the "for_each" argument on
resources, "count"/"for_each" on modules), and since there's still a fair
amount of functionality still using old-style APIs, there is a moderate
amount of shimming here to connect new assumptions with old, hopefully in
a way that makes it easier to find and eliminate these shims later.
I apologize in advance to the person who inevitably just found this huge
commit while spelunking through the commit history.
The new config loader requires some steps to happen in a different
order, particularly in regard to knowing the schema in order to
decode the configuration.
Here we lean directly on the configschema package, rather than
on helper/schema.Backend as before, because it's generally
sufficient for our needs here and this prepares us for the
helper/schema package later moving out into its own repository
to seed a "plugin SDK".
We will need access to this information in order to render interactive
input prompts, and it will also be useful in returning schema information
to external tools such as text editors that have autocomplete-like
functionality.
One of the tests in this package doesn't work when the tests are run as
root - like inside of a Docker container. The test is still useful to
specify `pathorcontents` behavior when a file is not readable, so it's
better to skip than just delete it. See linked issue for further
disussion.
Closes#7707
When checking if a ResourceDiff key is valid, allow for keys that exist
on sub-blocks. This allows things like diff.Clear to be called on
sub-block fields, instead of just on top-level fields.
The `remote` backend config contains an attribute that is defined as a `*schema.Set`, but currently only `string` values are accepted as the `config` attribute is defined as a `schema.TypeMap`.
Additionally the `b.Validate()` method wasn’t called to prevent a possible panic in case of unexpected configurations being passed to `b.Configure()`.
This commit is a bit of a hack to be able to support this in the 0.11 series. The 0.12 series will have proper support, so when merging 0.12 this should be reverted again.
While this initial implementation is a very simple wrapper function, implementing this in the helper/resource package provides some downstream benefits:
* Provides a standard interface for plugin developers to enable parallel acceptance testing
* Existing plugins can simply convert resource.Test to resource.ParallelTest references (as appropriate) to enable the functionality, rather than worrying about additional line(s) to each acceptance test function or TestCase
* Potential enhancements to ParallelTest (e.g. adding an environment variable to skip enabling the behavior) are consistently propagated
We already had the functionality to make resources deprecated, which was
used when migrating resources to data sources, but the functionality was
unexported, so only the schema package could do it. Now it's exported,
meaning providers can mark entire resources as deprecated. I also added
a test in hopefully-the-right place?
ImportStateVerify does not respect DiffSuppressFunc or CustomizeDiff, which is worth documenting (and maybe, possibly, worth changing?). ImportStateVerifyIgnore is a list of prefixes, rather than a list of fields.
This adds the Taint field to the acceptance testing framework, allowing
the ability to pre-taint resources at the beginning of a particular
TestStep. This can be useful for when an explicit ForceNew is required
for a specific resource for troubleshooting things like diff mismatches,
etc.
The field accepts resource addresses as a list of strings. To keep
things simple for the time being, only addresses in the root module are
accepted. If we ever want to expand this past that, I'd be almost
inclined to add some facilities to the core terraform package to help
translate actual module resource addresses (ie:
module.foo.module.bar.some_resource.baz) into the correct state, versus
the current convention in some acceptance testing facilities that take
the module address as a list of strings (ie: []string{"root", "foo",
"bar"}).
A couple of bugs have been discovered in ResourceDiff.ForceNew:
* NewRemoved is not preserved when a diff for a key is already present.
This is because the second diff that happens after customization
performs a second getChange on not just state and config, but also on
the pre-existing diff. This results in Exists == true, meaning nil is
never returned as a new value.
* ForceNew was doing the work of adding the key to the list of changed
keys by doing a full SetNew on the existing value. This has a side
effect of fetching zero values from what were otherwise undefined values
and creating diffs for these values where there should not have been
(example: "" => "0").
This update fixes these scenarios by:
* Adding a new private function to check the existing diff for
NewRemoved keys. This is included in the check on new values in
diffChange.
* Keys that have been flagged as ForceNew (or parent keys of lists and
sets that have been flagged as ForceNew) are now maintained in a
separate map. UpdatedKeys now returns the results of both of these maps,
but otherwise these keys are ignored by ResourceDiff.
* Pursuant the above, values are no longer pushed into the newDiff
writer by ForceNew. This prevents the zero value problem, and makes for
a cleaner implementation where the provider has to "manually" SetNew to
update the appropriate values in the writer. It also prevents
non-computed keys from winding up in the diff, which ResourceDiff
normally blocks by design.
There are also a couple of tests for cases that should never come up
right now involving Optional/Computed values and NewRemoved, for which
explanations are given in annotations of each test. These are here to
guard against future regressions.
Added some more context to GetOkExists, moved Computed to NewValueKnown
to accommodate some changes that will be coming up in HCL2 that may make
"Computed" less intuitive of a function name, and updated the docs for
NewValueKnown as well.
This adds a new method to ResourceDiff: Computed, which exposes the
computed read result field to ResourceDiff. In the context of
customizing the diff, this is important as interpolated and otherwise
computed values will show up in the diff as blank, with no way of
determining if the value is actually blank or if it's a computed value
not available at diff customization time. Currently assumptions need to
be made on this, but this does not help in validation scenarios where
one needs to differentiate between an actual blank value and a value
that will be available later.
This is exposed for the most part via NewComputed in the diff, but the
tests cover both the config reader as well (with no diff, even though
this should not come up in normal operation) and also the newDiff reader
when someone sets a new value using SetNew and SetNewComputed.
This commit also exposes GetOkExists. The tests were mostly pulled from
ResourceData but a few were added to ensure that config was being
properly covered as well, in addition to covering SetNew and
SetNewComputed.
Return the global default timeout if the ResourceData timeouts are nil.
Set the timeouts from the Resource when calling Resource.Data, so that
the config values are always available.
For historical reasons, the handling of element types for maps is inconsistent with other collection types.
Here we begin a multi-step process to make it consistent, starting by supporting both the "consistent" form of using a schema.Schema and an existing erroneous form of using a schema.Type directly. In subsequent commits we will phase out the erroneous form and require the schema.Schema approach, the same as we do for TypeList and TypeSet.
This is rarely needed, but sometimes tests need to create temporary files as part of their operation. This should be used sparingly, since it prevents the pro-active cleanup of the temporary working directory.
In terraform-providers/terraform-provider-aws#2935, we have been cleaning code
duplication by benefiting from the "NormalizeJsonString" present in the "structure" helper.
It appears that tests in the AWS provider are covering more use-cases,
which are added in this work.
This new codepath with the getDiff "customzed" return value, along with
the associated test need to be removed as soon as we can support unset
fields from the config, so we don't continue to carry this broken
behavior forward any longer than needed.
This extends the internal diffChange method so that ResourceDiff's
implementation of it can report back whether or not the value came from
a customized diff.
This is an effort to work to preserve the pre-ResourceDiff behaviour
that ignores the diff for computed keys when the old value was populated
but the new value wasn't - this behaviour is actually being depended on
by users that are using it to exploit using zero values in modules. This
should allow both scenarios to co-exist by shifting the NewComputed
exemption over to exempting values that come from diff customization.
This reverts one of the changes from 6a4f7b0, which broke empty strings
being seen as unset for computed values.
This breaks a number of other tests, and is only an intermediate change
for evaluating other solutions.
This case should be expected to fail with the current diff algorithm,
but the existing behavior was widely relied upon so we need to roll this
back until there is a representable nil value.
The CustomizeDiff functionality in helper/schema is powerful, but directly
writing single CustomizeDiff functions can obscure the intent when a
number of different, orthogonal diff-customization behaviors are required.
This new library provides some building blocks that aim to allow a more
declarative form of CustomizeDiff implementation, by composing a number of
smaller operations. For example:
&schema.Resource{
// ...
CustomizeDiff: customdiff.All(
customdiff.ValidateChange("size", func (old, new, meta interface{}) error {
// If we are increasing "size" then the new value must be
// a multiple of the old value.
if new.(int) <= old.(int) {
return nil
}
if (new.(int) % old.(int)) != 0 {
return fmt.Errorf("new size value must be an integer multiple of old value %d", old.(int))
}
return nil
}),
customdiff.ForceNewIfChange("size", func (old, new, meta interface{}) bool {
// "size" can only increase in-place, so we must create a new resource
// if it is decreased.
return new.(int) < old.(int)
}),
customdiff.ComputedIf("version_id", func (d *schema.ResourceDiff, meta interface{}) bool {
// Any change to "content" causes a new "version_id" to be allocated.
return d.HasChange("content")
}),
),
}
The goal is to allow the various separate operations to be quickly seen
and to ensure that each of them runs independently of the others. These
functions all create closures on the call parameters, so the result is
still just a normal CustomizeDiffFunc and so the helpers in this package
can be combined with hand-written functions as needed.
As we get more experience writing CustomizeDiff functions we may wish to
expand the repertoire of functions here in future; this initial set
attempts to cover some common cases we've seen so far. We may also
investigate some helper functions that are entirely declarative and so
don't take callback functions at all, but want to learn what the relevant
use-cases are before going in too deep here.
Looks like while we were checking errors correctly when ExpectError was
set, we weren't checking for the *absence* of an error, which is should
be checked as well (no error is still not the error we are looking for).
Added a few more tests for ExpectError as well.
Validation is the best time to return detailed diagnostics
to the user since we're much more likely to have source
location information, etc than we are in later operations.
This change doesn't actually add any detail to the messages
yet, but it changes the interface so that we can gradually
introduce more detailed diagnostics over time.
While here there are some minor adjustments to some of the
messages to improve their consistency with terminology we
use elsewhere.
StringMatch returns a validation function that can be used to match a
string against a regular expression. This can be used for simple
substring validations or more complex validation scenarios. Optionally,
an error message can be returned so that the user is returned a better
error message other than that their field did not match a regular
expression that they might not be able to understand.
There are situations where one may need to write to a set, list, or map
more than once per single TF operation (apply/refresh/etc). In these
cases, further writes using Set (example: d.Set("some_set", newSet))
currently create unstable results in the set writer (the name of the
writer layer that holds the data set by these calls) because old keys
are not being cleared out first.
This bug is most visible when using sets. Example: First write to set
writes elements that have been hashed at 10 and 20, and the second write
writes elements that have been hashed at 30 and 40. While the set length
has been correctly set at 2, since a set is basically a map (as is the
entire map writer) and map results are non-deterministic, reads to this
set will now deliver unstable results in a random but predictable
fashion as the map results are delivered to the caller non-deterministic
- sometimes you may correctly get 30 and 40, but sometimes you may get
10 and 20, or even 10 and 30, etc.
This problem propagates to state which is even more damaging as unstable
results are set to state where they become part of the permanent data
set going forward.
The problem also applies to lists and maps. This is probably more of an
issue with maps as a map can contain any key/value combination and hence
there is no predictable pattern where keys would be overwritten with
default or zero values. This is contrary to complex lists, which has
this problem as well, but since lists are deterministic and the length
of a list properly gets updated during the overwrite, the problem is
masked by the fact that a read will only read to the boundary of the
list, skipping any bad data that may still be available due past the
list boundary.
This update clears the child contents of any set, list, or map before
beginning a new write to address this issue. Tests are included for all
three data types.
This keeps CustomizeDiff from being defined on data sources, where it
would be useless. We just catch this in InternalValidate like the rest
of the CRUD functions that are not used in data sources.
Added some more detailed comments to CustomizeDiff's comments. The new
comments detail how CustomizeDiff will be called in the event of
different scenarios like creating a new resource, diffing an existing
one, diffing an existing resource that has a change that requires a new
resource, and destroy/tainted resources.
Also added similar detail to ForceNew in ResourceDiff.
This should help mitigate any confusion that may come up when using
CustomizeDiff, especially in the ForceNew scenario when the second run
happens with no state.
setDiff does not make use of its new parameter anymore, so it has been
removed. Also, as there is no more SetDiff (exported) function, mentions
of that have been removed from comments too.
This fixes nil pointer issues that could come up if an invalid key was
referenced (ie: not one in the schema). Also ships a helper validation
function to streamline things.
Restoring the naming of this field in the resource back to
CustomizeDiff, as this is generally more descriptive of the process
that's happening, despite the lengthy name.
The old comments said that this interface was API compatible with
terraform.ResourceProvider's Diff method - with the addition of passing
down meta to it, this is no longer the case.
Not too sure if this is really a big deal - schema.Resource never fully
implemented terraform.ResourceProvider, from what I can see, and the
path from Provdier.Diff to Resource.Diff is still pretty clear. Just
wanted to remove an outdated comment.
