I noticed we had two mechanisms for unit test override. One that dropped
a sentinel into the env var, and another with a struct member on
TestCase. This consolidates the two, using the cleaner struct member
internal mechanism and the nicer `resource.UnitTest()` entry point.
Although DiffFieldReader was the one mostly responsible for a buggy behaviour
more tests were added throughout the debugging process most of which
would fail without the bugfix.

The helper/schema framework for building providers previously validated
in all cases that each field being set in state was in the schema.
However, in order to support remote state in a usable fashion, the need
has arisen for the top level attributes of the resource to be created
dynamically. In order to still be able to use helper/schema, this commit
adds the capability to assign additional fields.
Though I do not forsee this being used by providers other than remote
state (and that eventually may move into Terraform Core rather than
being a provider), the usage and semantics are:
To opt into dynamic attributes, add a schema attribute named
"__has_dynamic_attributes", and make it an optional string with no
default value, in order that it does not appear in diffs:
"__has_dynamic_attributes": {
Type: schema.TypeString
Optional: true
}
In the read callback, use the d.UnsafeSetFieldRaw(key, value) function
to set the dynamic attributes.
Note that other fields in the schema _are_ copied into state, and that
the names of the schema fields cannot currently be used as dynamic
attribute names, as we check to ensure a value is not already set for a
given key.
This commit adds a flag to acceptance tests in order to make
appropriately named tests work during `make test` irrespective of the
TF_ACC environment variable. This should only be used on tests which are
known to be fast.
The serializeCollectionMemberForHash helper can't be called for the
MapType values, because MapType doesn't have a schema.Elem. Instead, we
can write the key/value pairs directly to the buffer. This still doesn't
allow for nested maps or lists, but we need to define that use case
before committing to it here.
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.
The mapstructure library has a regrettable backward compatibility
concern whereby a WeakDecode of []interface{}{} into a target of
map[string]interface{} yields an empty map rather than an error. One
possibility is to switch to using Decode instead of WeakDecode, but this
loses the nice handling of type conversion, requiring a large volume of
code to be added to Terraform or HIL in order to retain that behaviour.
Instead we add a DecodeHook to our usage of the mapstructure library
which checks for decoding []interface{}{} or []string{} into a map and
returns an error instead.
This has the effect of defeating the code added to retain backwards
compatibility in mapstructure, giving us the correct (for our
circumstances) behaviour of Decode for empty structures and the type
conversion of WeakDecode.
The code is identical to that in the HIL library, and packaged into a
helper.
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).
When testing destroy, the test harness calls Refresh followed by Plan,
with the expectation that the resulting diff will be empty.
Data resources challenge this expectation, because they will always be
instantiated during refresh if their configuration isn't computed, and so
the subsequent diff will want to destroy what was instantiated.
To work around this, we make an exception that data resource destroy
diffs may appear in the plan but nothing else.
This fixes#6713.
This commit forward ports the changes made for 0.6.17, in order to store
the type and sensitive flag against outputs.
It also refactors the logic of the import for V0 to V1 state, and
fixes up the call sites of the new format for outputs in V2 state.
Finally we fix up tests which did not previously set a state version
where one is required.
For backward compatibility we will continue to support using the data
sources that were formerly logical resources as resources for the moment,
but we want to warn the user about it since this support is likely to
be removed in future.
This is done by adding a new "deprecation message" feature to
schema.Resource, but for the moment this is done as an internal feature
(not usable directly by plugins) so that we can collect additional
use-cases and design a more general interface before creating a
compatibility constraint.
Historically we've had some "read-only" and "logical" resources. With the
addition of the data source concept these will gradually become data
sources, but we need to retain backward compatibility with existing
configurations that use the now-deprecated resources.
This shim is intended to allow us to easily create a resource from a
data source implementation. It adjusts the schema as needed and adds
stub Create and Delete implementations.
This would ideally also produce a deprecation warning whenever such a
shimmed resource is used, but the schema system doesn't currently have
a mechanism for resource-specific validation, so that remains just a TODO
for the moment.
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 is a breaking change to the ResourceProvider interface that adds the
new operations relating to data sources.
DataSources, ValidateDataSource, ReadDataDiff and ReadDataApply are the
data source equivalents of Resources, Validate, Diff and Apply (respectively)
for managed resources.
The diff/apply model seems at first glance a rather strange workflow for
read-only resources, but implementing data resources in this way allows them
to fit cleanly into the standard plan/apply lifecycle in cases where the
configuration contains computed arguments and thus the read must be deferred
until apply time.
Along with breaking the interface, we also fix up the plugin client/server
and helper/schema implementations of it, which are all of the callers
used when provider plugins use helper/schema. This would be a breaking
change for any provider plugin that directly implements the provider
interface, but no known plugins do this and it is not recommended.
At the helper/schema layer the implementer sees ReadDataApply as a "Read",
as opposed to "Create" or "Update" as in the managed resource Apply
implementation. The planning mechanics are handled entirely within
helper/schema, so that complexity is hidden from the provider implementation
itself.
This adds a test and the support necessary to read from native maps
passed as variables via interpolation - for example:
```
resource ...... {
mapValue = "${var.map}"
}
```
We also add support for interpolating maps from the flat-mapped resource
config, which is necessary to support assignment of computed maps, which
is now valid.
Unfortunately there is no good way to distinguish between a list and a
map in the flatmap. In lieu of changing that representation (which is
risky), we assume that if all the keys are numeric, this is intended to
be a list, and if not it is intended to be a map. This does preclude
maps which have purely numeric keys, which should be noted as a
backwards compatibility concern.
This commit adds support for native list variables and outputs, building
up on the previous change to state. Interpolation functions now return
native lists in preference to StringList.
List variables are defined like this:
variable "test" {
# This can also be inferred
type = "list"
default = ["Hello", "World"]
}
output "test_out" {
value = "${var.a_list}"
}
This results in the following state:
```
...
"outputs": {
"test_out": [
"hello",
"world"
]
},
...
```
And the result of terraform output is as follows:
```
$ terraform output
test_out = [
hello
world
]
```
Using the output name, an xargs-friendly representation is output:
```
$ terraform output test_out
hello
world
```
The output command also supports indexing into the list (with
appropriate range checking and no wrapping):
```
$ terraform output test_out 1
world
```
Along with maps, list outputs from one module may be passed as variables
into another, removing the need for the `join(",", var.list_as_string)`
and `split(",", var.list_as_string)` which was previously necessary in
Terraform configuration.
This commit also updates the tests and implementations of built-in
interpolation functions to take and return native lists where
appropriate.
A backwards compatibility note: previously the concat interpolation
function was capable of concatenating either strings or lists. The
strings use case was deprectated a long time ago but still remained.
Because we cannot return `ast.TypeAny` from an interpolation function,
this use case is no longer supported for strings - `concat` is only
capable of concatenating lists. This should not be a huge issue - the
type checker picks up incorrect parameters, and the native HIL string
concatenation - or the `join` function - can be used to replicate the
missing behaviour.
This adds a field terraform_version to the state that represents the
Terraform version that wrote that state. If Terraform encounters a state
written by a future version, it will error. You must use at least the
version that wrote that state.
Internally we have fields to override this behavior (StateFutureAllowed),
but I chose not to expose them as CLI flags, since the user can just
modify the state directly. This is tricky, but should be tricky to
represent the horrible disaster that can happen by enabling it.
We didn't have to bump the state format version since the absense of the
field means it was written by version "0.0.0" which will always be
older. In effect though this change will always apply to version 2 of
the state since it appears in 0.7 which bumped the version for other
purposes.
