This fixes several bugs:
- `substr("abc", 0, 0)` would previously return `"abc"`, despite the
length argument being `0`. This has been changed to return an empty
string when length is zero.
- `ceil(1/0)` and `floor(1/0)` would previously return a large integer
value, rather than infinity. This has been fixed.
This brings in the new HCL extension functions "try", "can", and
"convert", along with the underlying HCL and cty infrastructure that allow
them to work.
This also includes an upgrade to cty v1.1.1 because HCL calls for it.
The changes in these two libraries are mainly to codepaths that don't
directly affect Terraform, but including this upgrade will cause some
small improvements to Terraform's error messages for type conversion
problems.
cty now guarantees that sets of primitive values will iterate in a
reasonable order. Previously it was the caller's responsibility to deal
with that, but we invariably neglected to do so, causing inconsistent
ordering. Since cty prioritizes consistent behavior over performance, it
now imposes its own sort on set elements as part of iterating over them so
that calling applications don't have to worry so much about it.
This change also causes cty to consistently push unknown and null values
in sets to the end of iteration, where before that was undefined. This
means that our diff output will now consistently list additions before
removals when showing sets, rather than the ordering being undefined as
before.
The ordering of known, non-null, non-primitive values is still not
contractually fixed but remains consistent for a particular version of
cty.
This includes a fix to prevent unintentional infinite recursion when
trying to unify multiple object types to a single type for conversion to
list(any).
Sadly I wasn't able to reproduce the problem as reported (in #20728), so
therefore I wasn't able to write a Terraform test for it, but I have
confirmed that the cty behavior here was incorrect anyway (recursively
calling the same function we're already in with the same arguments is
clearly not productive) and so this change will allow whatever situation
that was to terminate with a type conversion error, rather than causing a
stack overflow.
It's likely that there is another bug lurking under this, since the
problematic code here was supposed to be unreachable, but avoiding the
crash is the priority for now. If the problem re-surfaces then it should
at least be an error message with some additional context about what the
goal of the caller was.
This also includes an unrelated fix for the gocty package, which doesn't
affect Terraform because it makes very little use of that package.
This fixes a bug in the TestConformance function that was generating false
positives when given two object types with the same number of attributes
but not identical attribute names.
The cty change here fixes a panic situation when cty.Path.Apply is given
a null value, making it now correctly return an error.
However, the HCL2 change includes an alternative to cty.Path.Apply that
uses HCL-level rules rather than cty-level rules, so the result behaves
like an HCL expression would. Most uses of cty.Path.Apply ought to use
hcl.ApplyPath instead, to ensure that the behavior is consistent with what
users expect in the main language.
This fixes some consistency problems with how number strings were parsed
in the msgpack decoder vs other situations.
This commit also includes an upgrade of HCL2 to use this new cty function,
though there's no change in behavior here since the new function is
functionally equivalent to what it replaced.
This includes:
- An additional check in the format stdlib function to fail if there are
too many arguments given, rather than silently ignoring.
- Refinements for the type unification behavior to allow unification of
object/tuple types into weaker map/list types when no other unification
is possible.
- Improvements to the error messages for failed type conversions on
collection and structural types to talk about mismatching element types
where possible, rather than the outer value.
This contains a fix for a panic in Value.HasElement when used on a set
value whose element type is an object or tuple.
A few other minor dependency upgrades came long for the ride.
This brings in a bugfix for analyzing variables inside relative traversal
expressions in HCL, and a cosmetic bugfix in cty for GoString of
cty.NullVal(cty.DynamicPseudoType).
This also updates some other packages, as a result of running "go get -u".
This includes the new PathSet type, which we'll use to represent the
"requires replacement" set of attribute paths coming back from providers
during planning.
This includes a bugfix to the cty/msgpack package to ensure correct
decoding of unknown and null values.
This also includes updates to cty's dependencies.
The existing cty packages were already at the latest version, but we were
not yet vendoring the msgpack package.
This also imports some dependencies from:
github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack
This is largely minor bugfixes for issues found since we last updated the
vendoring. There are some new features here that Terraform is not yet
using and thus present little risk.
In particular this includes the HCL-JSON spec change where arrays can now
be used at any level in a block label structure, to allow for preserving
the relative order of blocks.
This new version supports a conversion from object types to map types,
which is important for Terraform because HCL2 { ... } syntax produces
objects but lots of Terraform attributes require maps.
