Since we need to know the index to know the result type for a tuple, we
need a special case here to deal with that situation and return
cty.DynamicVal; we can't predict the result type exactly until we know the
element type.
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.
This is based on c811440188 made against the
old "config" package implementations, but also catches a few other cases
where we would previously have printed the private key into the error
messages.
These implementations are adaptations of the existing implementations in
config/interpolate_funcs.go, updated to work with the cty API.
The set of functions chosen here was motivated mainly by what Terraform's
existing context tests depend on, so we can get the contexts tests back
into good shape before fleshing out the rest of these functions.
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.
Whereas package "configs" deals with the static structure of the
configuration language, this new package "lang" deals with the dynamic
aspects such as expression evaluation.
So far this mainly consists of populating a hcl.EvalContext that contains
the values necessary to evaluate a block or an expression. There is also
special handling here for dynamic block generation using the HCL
"dynblock" extension, which is exposed in the public interface (rather
than hiding it as an implementation detail of EvalBlock) so that the
caller can then extract proper source locations for any result values
using the expanded body.
This also includes the beginnings of a replacement for the function table
handling that currently lives in the old "config" package, but most of
the functions are not yet ported and so this will expand in subsequent
commits.
