Implement a new provider_meta block in the terraform block of modules, allowing provider-keyed metadata to be communicated from HCL to provider binaries.
Bundled in this change for minimal protocol version bumping is the addition of markdown support for attribute descriptions and the ability to indicate when an attribute is deprecated, so this information can be shown in the schema dump.

If an attribute was not wholly known, helper/schema was skipping the
`validateType` function which (among other things) returned deprecation
messages. This PR checks for deprecation before returning when skipping
validateType.
You can signal the same information in `Read` with an empty ID if the object does not exist, Implementing `Exists` is not the only way to do so and in some providers is also not the preferred way.
Nil values were not previously expected during validation, but they can
appear in some situations with the new protocol. Add checks to prevent
using zero reflect.Values.
If there are unknowns, the block may have come from a dynamic
declaration, and we can't validate MinItems. Once the blocks are
expanded, we will get the full config for validation without any unknown
values.
Fix 2 specific panics in the sdk when reading nil or computed maps from
various configurations. The legacy sdk code is too dependent on undefined
behavior to attempt to find and fix the root cause at this point.
Since the code is essentially frozen for future development, these
changes are specifically targeted to only prevent panics from within
providers. Because any code effected by these changes would have
panicked, there cannot be anything depending on the behavior, and these
should be safe to fix.
This experiment is no longer needed for handling computed blocks, since
the legacy SDK can't reasonably handle Dynamic types, we need to remove
this before the final release.
Remove LegacySchema functions as well, since handling SkipCoreTypeCheck
was the only thing left they were handling.
The new type system only has a Number type, but helper schema
differentiates between Int and Float values. Verify that a new config
value is an integer during Validate, because the existing WeakDecode
validation will decode a float value into an integer while the config
FieldReader will attempt to parse the float exactly.
Since we're limiting this to protoV5, we can be certain that any valid
config value will be converted to an `int` type by the shims. The only
case where an integral float value will appear is if the integer is out
of range for the systems `int` type, but we also need to prevent that
anyway since it would fail to read in the same manner.
Computed primitive values must see the UnknownConfigValue or they are
assumed to be unchanged. Restrict the usage of the protov5 ComputedKeys
to containers.
First check the ComputedValues field in the config when reading config
field, so that we can detect if there is an unknown value in a
container. Since maps, lists and sets are verified to exist by looking
for a "length" first, an unknown config value in the config is ignored.
removeConfigUnknowns need to remove the value completely from the config
map. Removing this value allows GetOk and GetOkExists to indicate if the
value was set in the config in the case of an Optional+Computed
attribute.
We previously attempted to make the special diff apply behavior for nested
sets of objects work with attribute mode by totally discarding attribute
mode for all shims.
In practice, that is too broad a solution: there are lots of other shimming
behaviors that we _don't_ want when attribute mode is enabled. In
particular, we need to make sure that the difference between null and
empty can be seen in configuration.
As a compromise then, we will give all of the shims access to the real
ConfigMode and then do a more specialized fixup within the diff-apply
logic: we'll construct a synthetic nested block schema and then use that
to run our existing logic to deal with nested sets of objects, while
using the previous behavior in all other cases.
In effect, this means that the special new behavior only applies when the
provider uses the opt-in ConfigMode setting on a particular attribute,
and thus this change has much less risk of causing broad, unintended
regressions elsewhere.
Due to the lossiness of our legacy models for diff and state, shimming a
diff and then creating a state from it produces a different result than
shimming a state directly. That means that ImportStateVerify no longer
works as expected if there are any Computed attributes in the schema where
d.Set isn't called during Read.
Fixing that for every case would require some risky changes to the shim
behavior, so we're instead going to ask provider developers to address it
by adding `d.Set` calls where needed, since that is the contract for
"Computed" anyway -- a default value should be produced during Create, and
thus by extension during Import.
However, since a common situation where this occurs is attributes marked
as "Removed", since all of the code that deals with them has generally
been deleted, we'll avoid problems in that case here by treating Removed
attributes as ignored for the purposes of ImportStateVerify.
This required exporting some functionality that was formerly unexported
in helper/schema, but it's a relatively harmless schema introspection
function so shouldn't be a big deal to export it.
The synthetic config value used to create the Apply diff should contain
no unknown config values. Any remaining UnknownConfigValues were due to
that being used as a placeholder for values yet to be computed, and
these should be marked NewComputed in the diff.
The previous commit added this flag but did not implement it. Here we
implement it by adjusting the shape of schema we return to Terraform Core
to mark the attribute as untyped and then ensure that gets handled
correctly on the SDK side.
When running in v0.12-and-higher mode, this will cause the SDK to report
the type of the attribute as "any", effectively skipping type checking
on the Core side altogether and checking only in the SDK and provider
code.
The practical impact of this is to restore the v0.11-style checking
behavior of allowing object values to be missing certain attributes as
long as they are marked as optional in the schema. The SDK can do this
because it uses a unified schema model for both object values and nested
blocks, while Terraform Core only supports the idea of "optional" when
talking about attributes in nested blocks.
This is a continuation of the pile of workarounds that also includes
the ConfigMode and AsSingle fields, allowing providers to selectively opt
out of new v0.12 behaviors in situations where they conflict with
decisions made in the design of the providers in our old world where
Terraform Core delegated _all_ validation to providers.
This is designed as an opt-in so that we can limit its impact only to
specific cases where it's needed and minimize the risk of regressions
elsewhere. Providers should use this sparingly only in situations where
prevailing usage disagrees with the new expectations of Terraform Core in
v0.12.
This commit only adds the flag, and does not implement any behavior for it
yet. That means this commit can exist in both the v0.11 and v0.12
codebases, allowing for API compatibility. A subsequent commit for v0.12
(not included in v0.11) will then implement this behavior.
The previous commit added a new flag to schema.Schema which is documented
to make a list with MaxItems: 1 be presented to Terraform Core as a single
value instead, giving a way to switch to non-list nested resources without
it being a breaking change for Terraform v0.11 users as long as it's done
prior to a provider's first v0.12-compatible release.
This is the implementation of that mechanism. It's intentionally
implemented as a suite of extra fixups rather than direct modifications to
existing shim code because we want to ensure that this has no effect
whatsoever on the result of a resource type that _isn't_ using AsSingle.
Although there is some small unit test coverage of the fixup steps here,
the primary testing for this is in the test provider since the integration
of all of these fixup steps in the correct order is the more important
result than any of the intermediate fixup steps.
This setting indicates that an attribute defined as TypeList or TypeSet
should be presented to Terraform Core as a single value instead when
running in Terraform v0.12 or later. It has no effect for Terraform v0.10
or v0.11.
This commit just introduces the setting without any associated behavior,
so it can be included in both the v0.12 and v0.11 branches. A subsequent
commit only to the v0.12 branch will introduce the behavior as part of
the protocol version 5 shims.
