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.
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.
To keep with the current convention of most other schema.Resource
functional fields being fairly short, CustomizeDiff has been changed to
"Review". It would be "Diff", however it is already used by existing
functions in schema.Provider and schema.Resource.
Both Destroy and DestroyDeposed are not propagated down the diff stack,
meaning that there is no way we can tell at this point if an instance is
being destroyed or deposed, so this check would never be used.
In this regard, Destroy never runs a diff down the stack at all, and a
deposition check is not run until *after* the provider's diff function
is called. To answer this question and close it off, we could either
determine if a resource is deposed earlier, and propagate that down, or
treat deposed resources like full destroy nodes, and not diff them at
all (but rather making a diff with the only thing in it being
DestroyDeposed flagged).
Added a few more test cases for CustomizeDiff, caught another error in
the process. I think this is ready for review now, and possibly some
real-world testing of the waters by way of porting some resources that
would benefit from the feature.
It's alive! CustomizeDiff logic now has been inserted into the diff
process. The test_resource_with_custom_diff resource provides some basic
testing and a reference implementation.
There should now be plenty of test coverage for this feature via the
tests added for ResourceDiff, and the basic test added to the
schemaMap.Diff test, and the test resource, but more can be added to
test any specific case that comes up otherwise.
This provides a deep copy of a schemaMap, which will be needed for the
diff customization process as ResourceDiff will be able to flag fields
as ForceNew - we don't want to affect the source schema.
In diffString, removed values are marked if the old value is non-nil and
the new value is nil, regardless of if the new value is marked as a
computed value. With the new diff override behaviour, this can lead to
issues where a nil attribute may get inserted into the diff if the new
value has been marked as computed (as the value will be marked as
missing, but computed).
This propagates into finalizeDiff in some respects because even if
NewComputed is manually set in the diff that gets passed in, it is
ignored, and the schema becomes the only source of truth. Since our new
diff behaviour is mainly designed to be supported on computed keys only,
it stands to reason that we there will be a time where we want to set a
diff as NewComputed on a key, and see that change in the diff.
These two small changes makes that happen. No regressions in tests have
been observed via this change, so it seems safe and non-invasive.
This adds a new object, ResourceDiff, to the schema package. This
object, in conjunction with a function defined in CustomizeDiff in the
resource schema, allows for the in-flight customization of a Terraform
diff. This helps support use cases such as when there are necessary
changes to a resource that cannot be detected in config, such as via
computed fields (most of the utility in this object works on computed
fields only). It also allows for a wholesale wipe of the diff to allow
for diff logic completely offloaded to an external API, if it is a
better use case for a specific provider.
As part of this work, many internal diff functions have been moved to
use a special resourceDiffer interface, to allow for shared
functionality between ResourceDiff and ResourceData. This may be
extended to the DiffSuppressFunc as well which would restrict use of
ResourceData in DiffSuppressFunc to generally read-only fields.
This work is not yet in its final state - CustomizeDiff is not yet
implemented in the general diff workflow, new functions may be added
(notably Clear() for a single key), and functionality may be altered.
Tests will follow as well.
GH-14784 allowed nested structures to be validate, rather than relying
on the raw value. However this still returns the same validation error
if the structures contain a computed value, since Get will return the
raw string in that case.
This simply skips the validation in the IsComputed case, since there's
nothing that can be checked.
When interpreting a nested object, we were validating against the "raw"
value, and not the interpolated value, causing incorrect errors.
This affects structures such as:
```tf
tags = "${list(map("foo", "bar"))}"
```
Prior to this, a complaint about "expected object, got string" since the
raw value is obviously a string, when the interpolated value is the
correct shape.
If a schema.TypeList had a Schema with ForceNew, and if that list was
NewComputed, the diff would not have RequiresNew set. This causes apply
to fail when the diffs didn't match because of the change to
RequiresNew.
Set the RequiresNew field on the list's ResourceAttrDiff based on the
Schema value.
* Revert #11245, #11321, #11498 and #11757
These PR’s are all related to issue #11170 for which I would like to propose a different solution then the one currently implemented.
* A different approach to solve #11170
This approach has (IMHO) a few advantages with regards to the solution currently implemented. I will elaborate on this in the PR.
Discussion in #9512 revealed that some of the comments here were
inaccurate and that the comments here did not paint a complete enough
picture of the behavior and expectations of Default and DefaultFunc.
This is a comments-only change that aims to clarify the situation and
call attention to the fact that the defaults only affect the handling of
the configuration and that changes to defaults may require migration of
existing resource states.
This closes#9512.
If the list was marked as computed, all values will be raw config
values. Fetch the individual keys from the config to get any known
values before validating.
The Required||Optional logic in schemaMap.Input was incorrect, causing
it to always request input. Fix the logic, and the associated tests
which were passing "just because".

Fixes#10125
If the elements are computed and the field is ForceNew, then we should
mark the computed count as potentially forcing a new operation.
Example, assuming `groups` forces new...
**Step 1:**
groups = ["1", "2", "3"]
At this point, the resource isn't create, so this should result in a
diff like:
CREATE resource:
groups: "" => ["1", "2", "3"]
**Step 2:**
groups = ["${computedvar}"]
The OLD behavior was:
UPDATE resource
groups.#: "3" => "computed"
This would cause a diff mismatch because if `${computedvar}` was
different then it should force new. The NEW behavior is:
DESTROY/CREATE resource:
groups.#: "3" => "computed" (forces new)
Fixes#2748
This changes the diff to only mark "forces new resource" on the fields
that actually caused the new resource, not every field that changed.
This makes diffs much more accurate.
I'd like to request a review but I'm going to defer merging until
Terraform 0.8. Changes like this are very possible to cause "diffs
didn't match" errors and I want some real world testing in a beta before
we hit prod with this.
Fixes#5138
If an item is optional and is removed completely from the configuration,
it should still trigger a destroy/create if the field itself was marked
as "ForceNew".
See the example in #5138.
Fixes#3309
There are two primary changes, one to how helper/schema creates diffs
and one to how Terraform compares diffs. Both require careful
understanding.
== 1. helper/schema Changes
helper/schema, given any primitive field (string, int, bool, etc.)
_used to_ create a basic diff when given a computed new value (i.e. from
an unkown interpolation). This would put in the plan that the old value
is whatever the old value was, and the new value was the actual
interpolation. For example, from #3309, the diff showed the following:
```
~ module.test.aws_eip.test-instance.0
instance: "<INSTANCE ID>" => "${element(aws_instance.test-instance.*.id, count.index)}"
```
Then, when running `apply`, the diff would be realized and you would get
a diff mismatch error because it would realize the final value is the
same and remove it from the diff.
**The change:** `helper/schema` now marks unknown primitive values with
`NewComputed` set to true. Semantically this is correct for the diff to
have this information.
== 2. Terraform Diff.Same Changes
Next, the way Terraform compares diffs needed to be updated
Specifically, the case where the diff from the plan had a NewComputed
primitive and the diff from the apply _no longer has that value_. This
is possible if the computed value ended up being the same as the old
value. This is allowed to pass through.
Together, these fix#3309.
This is required for the times when the configuration cannot have an
empty configuration. An example would be in AzureRM, when you create a
LoadBalancer with a configuration, you can delete *all* but 1 of these
configurations
This commit adds a new callback, DiffSuppressFunc, to the schema.Schema
structure. If set for a given schema, a callback to the user-supplied
function will be made for each attribute for which the default
type-based diff mechanism produces an attribute diff. Returning `true`
from the callback will suppress the diff (i.e. pretend there was no
diff), and returning false will retain it as part of the plan.
There are a number of motivating examples for this - one of which is
included as an example:
1. On SSH public keys, trailing whitespace does not matter in many
cases - and in some cases it is added by provider APIs. For
digitalocean_ssh_key resources we previously had a StateFunc that
trimmed the whitespace - we now have a DiffSuppressFunc which
verifies whether the trimmed strings are equivalent.
2. IAM policy equivalence for AWS. A good proportion of AWS issues
relate to IAM policies which have been "normalized" (used loosely)
by the IAM API endpoints. This can make the JSON strings differ
from those generated by iam_policy_document resources or template
files, even though the semantics are the same (for example,
reordering of `bucket-prefix/` and `bucket-prefix/*` in an S3
bucket policy. DiffSupressFunc can be used to test for semantic
equivalence rather than pure text equivalence, but without having to
deal with the complexity associated with a full "provider-land" diff
implementation without helper/schema.
The flatmapped representation of state prior to this commit encoded maps
and lists (and therefore by extension, sets) with a key corresponding to
the number of elements, or the unknown variable indicator under a .# key
and then individual items. For example, the list ["a", "b", "c"] would
have been encoded as:
listname.# = 3
listname.0 = "a"
listname.1 = "b"
listname.2 = "c"
And the map {"key1": "value1", "key2", "value2"} would have been encoded
as:
mapname.# = 2
mapname.key1 = "value1"
mapname.key2 = "value2"
Sets use the hash code as the key - for example a set with a (fictional)
hashcode calculation may look like:
setname.# = 2
setname.12312512 = "value1"
setname.56345233 = "value2"
Prior to the work done to extend the type system, this was sufficient
since the internal representation of these was effectively the same.
However, following the separation of maps and lists into distinct
first-class types, this encoding presents a problem: given a state file,
it is impossible to tell the encoding of an empty list and an empty map
apart. This presents problems for the type checker during interpolation,
as many interpolation functions will operate on only one of these two
structures.
This commit therefore changes the representation in state of maps to use
a "%" as the key for the number of elements. Consequently the map above
will now be encoded as:
mapname.% = 2
mapname.key1 = "value1"
mapname.key2 = "value2"
This has the effect of an empty list (or set) now being encoded as:
listname.# = 0
And an empty map now being encoded as:
mapname.% = 0
Therefore we can eliminate some nasty guessing logic from the resource
variable supplier for interpolation, at the cost of having to migrate
state up front (to follow in a subsequent commit).
In order to reduce the number of potential situations in which resources
would be "forced new", we continue to accept "#" as the count key when
reading maps via helper/schema. There is no situation under which we can
allow "#" as an actual map key in any case, as it would not be
distinguishable from a list or set in state.
This an effort to address hashicorp/terraform#516.
Adding the Sensitive attribute to the resource schema, opening up the
ability for resource maintainers to mark some fields as sensitive.
Sensitive fields are hidden in the output, and, possibly in the future,
could be encrypted.
This means it’s shown correctly in a plan and takes into account any
actions that are dependant on the tainted resource and, vice verse, any
actions that the tainted resource depends on.
So this changes the behaviour from saying this resource is tainted so
just forget about it and make sure it gets deleted in the background,
to saying I want that resource to be recreated (taking into account the
existing resource and it’s place in the graph).
In the "schema" layer a Resource is just any "thing" that has a schema
and supports some or all of the CRUD operations. Data sources introduce
a new use of Resource to represent read-only resources, which require
some different InternalValidate logic.
This adds a test and the support necessary to read from native maps
passed as variables via interpolation - for example:
```
resource ...... {
mapValue = "${var.map}"
}
```
We also add support for interpolating maps from the flat-mapped resource
config, which is necessary to support assignment of computed maps, which
is now valid.
Unfortunately there is no good way to distinguish between a list and a
map in the flatmap. In lieu of changing that representation (which is
risky), we assume that if all the keys are numeric, this is intended to
be a list, and if not it is intended to be a map. This does preclude
maps which have purely numeric keys, which should be noted as a
backwards compatibility concern.
