These tests demonstrates a problem where the types to a module input are
not checked. For example, if a module - inner - defines a variable
"should_be_a_map" as a map, or with a default variable of map, we do not
fail if the user sets the variable value in the outer module to a string
value. This is also a problem in nested modules.
The implementation changes add a type checking step into the graph
evaluation process to ensure invalid types are not passed.
Fixes an interpolation race that was occurring when a tainted destroy
node and a primary destroy node both tried to interpolate a computed
count in their config. Since they were sharing a pointer to the _same_
config, depending on how the race played out one of them could catch the
config uninterpolated and would then throw a syntax error.
The `Copy()` tree implemented for this fix can probably be used
elsewhere - basically we should copy the config whenever we drop nodes
into the graph - but for now I'm just applying it to the place that
fixes this bug.
Fixes#4982 - Includes a test covering that race condition.
This function returns -1 for negative numbers, 0 for 0 and 1 for positive numbers.
Useful when you need to set a value for the first resource and a different value for the rest of the resources.
Example: `${element(split(",", var.r53_failover_policy), signum(count.index))}`
If a variable type which is invalid (e.g. "stringg") is declared, we now
include the invalid type description in the error message to make it
easier to track down the source of the error in the source file.
This commit adds support for declaring variable types in Terraform
configuration. Historically, the type has been inferred from the default
value, defaulting to string if no default was supplied. This has caused
users to devise workarounds if they wanted to declare a map but provide
values from a .tfvars file (for example).
The new syntax adds the "type" key to variable blocks:
```
variable "i_am_a_string" {
type = "string"
}
variable "i_am_a_map" {
type = "map"
}
```
This commit does _not_ extend the type system to include bools, integers
or floats - the only two types available are maps and strings.
Validation is performed if a default value is provided in order to
ensure that the default value type matches the declared type.
In the case that a type is not declared, the old logic is used for
determining the type. This allows backwards compatiblity with previous
Terraform configuration.
The render code path in `template_file` was doing unsynchronized access
to a shared mapping of functions in `config.Func`.
This caused a race condition that was most often triggered when a
`template_file` had a `count` of more than one, and expressed itself as
a panic in the plugin followed by a cascade of "unexpected EOF" errors
through the plugin system.
Here, we simply turn the FuncMap from shared state into a generated
value, which avoids the race. We do more re-initialization of the data
structure, but the performance implications are minimal, and we can
always revisit with a perf pass later now that the race is fixed.
This may be brittle as it makes use of .gitattributes to override the
autocrlf setting in order to have an input file with Windows line
endings across multiple platforms.
This was never intended to be valid syntax, but it worked in the old HCL
parser, and we've found a decent number of examples of it in the wild.
Fixed in https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl/pull/62 and we'll keep this
test in Terraform to cover the behavior.
Building on the work of #3846, deprecate `filename` in favor of a
`template` attribute that accepts file contents instead of a path.
Required a bit of work in the interpolation code to prevent Terraform
from assuming that template interpolations were resource variables that
needed to be resolved. Leaving them as "Unknown Variables" prevents
interpolation from happening early and lets the `template_file` resource
do its thing.
This test reproduces the issue which is likely the root cause of #3840.
Test is currently failing with an "illegal character" message
corresponding with the location of the heredoc, which is also seen in
various acceptance tests for providers.
It has improvements to error messaging that we want.
We'll use this occasion begin developing / building with Go 1.5 from
here on out. Build times will be slower, but we have core development
plans that will help mitigate that.

These new functions allow Terraform to be used for network address space
planning tasks, and make it easier to produce reusable modules that
contain or depend on network infrastructure.
For example:
- cidrsubnet allows an aws_subnet to derive its
CIDR prefix from its parent aws_vpc.
- cidrhost allows a fixed IP address for a resource to be assigned within
an address range defined elsewhere.
- cidrnetmask provides the dotted-decimal form of a prefix length that is
accepted by some systems such as routing tables and static network
interface configuration files.
The bulk of the work here is done by an external library I authored called
go-cidr. It is MIT licensed and was implemented primarily for the purpose
of using it within Terraform. It has its own unit tests and so the unit
tests within this change focus on simple success cases and on the correct
handling of the various error cases.
There isn't any precedent for abbreviating words in the interpolation
function names, and it may not be clear to all users what "enc" and "dec"
are short for, so instead we'll prefer to spell out the whole words for
improved readability.
It seems there are 4 locations left that use the `helper/multierror`
package, where the rest is TF settled on the `hashicorp/go-multierror`
package.
Functionally this doesn’t change anything, so I suggest to delete the
builtin version as it can only cause confusion (both packages have the
same name, but are still different types according to Go’s type system.
Had to handle a lot of implicit leaning on a few properties of the old
representation:
* Old representation allowed plain strings to be treated as lists
without problem (i.e. shoved into strings.Split), now strings need to
be checked whether they are a list before they are treated as one
(i.e. shoved into StringList(s).Slice()).
* Tested behavior of 0 and 1 length lists in formatlist() was a side
effect of the representation. Needs to be special cased now to
maintain the behavior.
* Found a pretty old context test failure that was wrong in several
different ways. It's covered by TestContext2Apply_multiVar so I
removed it.
This is the initial pure "all tests passing without a diff" stage. The
plan is to change the internal representation of StringList to include a
suffix delimiter, which will allow us to recognize empty and
single-element lists.
Without this 12 line function it’s impossible to use any of the
Terraform code without the need for having the files on disk. As more
and more people are using (parts of) Terraform in other software, this
seems to be a very welcome addition. It has no negative impact on
Terraform itself whatsoever (the function is never called), but it
opens up a lot of other use cases.
Next to the single new function, I renamed the existing function (and
related tests) to better reflect what the function does. So now there
is a `LoadDir` function which calls `LoadFile` for each file, which
kind of made sense to me, especially when now adding a `LoadJSON`
function as well.
But of course if the rename is a problem, I can revert that part as
it’s not related to the added `LoadJSON` function.
Thanks!
formatlist distributes formatting over lists.
See the docs for details.
As a colleague commented:
"It happens all the time that we want a set of
outputs, but in a slightly different way than
just simple joining or concatting."
formatlist (combined with join)
makes it easy to satisfy those needs.
