Early on it looked like we wouldn't need to distinguish these since we
were only analyzing for provider types, but we're now leaning directly
on the resource addresses later on and so we need to make sure we produce
valid ones when data resources are present.
Users discovered that they could exploit some missing validation in
Terraform v0.11 and prior to treat block types as if they were attributes
and assign dynamic expressions to them, with some significant caveats and
gotchas resulting from the fact that this was never intended to work.
However, since such patterns are in use in the wild we'll convert them
to a dynamic block during upgrade. With only static analysis we must
unfortunately generate a very conservative, ugly dynamic block with
every possible argument set. Users ought to then clean up the generated
configuration after confirming which arguments are actually required.
We're using break elsewhere in here so it was weird to have a small set
of situations that return instead, which could then cause confusion for
future maintenance if a reader doesn't notice that control doesn't always
leave the outer switch statement.
If lookup is being used with only two arguments then it is equivalent to
index syntax and more readable that way, so we'll replace it.
Ideally we'd do similarly for element(...) here but sadly we cannot
because we can't prove in static analysis that the user is not relying
on the modulo wraparound behavior of that function.
We now have native language features for declaring tuples and objects,
which are the idiomatic way to construct sequence and mapping values that
can then be converted to list, set, and map types as needed.
In the old world, lists and maps could be created either using functions
in HIL or list/object constructs in HCL. Here we ensure that in the HCL
case we'll apply any required expression transformations to the individual
items within HCL's compound constructs.
Previously we were using the line count difference between the start of
one item and the next to decide whether to insert a blank line between
two items, but that is incorrect for multi-line items.
Instead, we'll now count the difference from the final line of the
previous item to the first line of the next, as best we can with the
limited position info recorded by the HCL1 parser.
The old parser was forgiving in allowing the use of block syntax where a
map attribute was expected, but the new parser is not (in order to allow
for dynamic map keys, for expressions, etc) and so the upgrade tool must
fix these to use attribute syntax.
The main area of interest in upgrading is dealing with special cases for
individual block items, so this generalization allows us to use the same
overall body-processing logic for everything but to specialize just how
individual items are dealt with, which we match by their names as given
in the original input source code.
This involved some refactoring of how block bodies are migrated, which
still needs some additional work to deal with meta-arguments but is now
at least partially generalized to support both resource and provider
blocks.
This allows basic static validation of a traversal against a schema, to
verify that it represents a valid path through the structural parts of
the schema.
The main purpose of this is to produce better error messages (using our
knowledge of the schema) than we'd be able to achieve by just relying
on HCL expression evaluation errors. This is particularly important for
nested blocks because it may not be obvious whether one is represented
internally by a set or a list, and incorrect usage would otherwise produce
a confusing HCL-oriented error message.
We want the forthcoming v0.12.0 release to be the last significant
breaking change to our main configuration constructs for a long time, but
not everything could be implemented in that release.
As a compromise then, we reserve various names we have some intent of
using in a future release so that such future uses will not be a further
breaking change later.
Some of these names are associated with specific short-term plans, while
others are reserved conservatively for possible later work and may be
"un-reserved" in a later release if we don't end up using them. The ones
that we expect to use in the near future were already being handled, so
we'll continue to decode them at the config layer but also produce an
error so that we don't get weird behavior downstream where the
corresponding features don't work yet.
Since our new approach here works by installing with a synthetic module
configuration block, we need to treat relative paths as a special case
for two reasons:
- Relative paths in module addresses are relative to the file containing
the call rather than the working directory, but -from-module uses the
working directory (and the call is in a synthetic "file" anyway)
- We need to force Terraform to pass the path through to go-getter rather
than just treating it as a relative reference, since we really do want
a copy of the directory in this case, even if it is local.
To address both of these things, we'll detect a relative path and turn it
into an absolute path before beginning installation. This is a bit hacky,
but this is consistent with the general philosophy of the -from-module
implementation where it does hacky things so that the rest of the
installer code can be spared of dealing with its special cases.
This is covered by a couple of existing tests that run init -from-module,
including TestInit_fromModule_dstInSrc which now passes.
The tests in here are illustrating that this package is not yet finished,
but we plan to run a release before we finish this and so we'll skip those
tests for now with the intent of reinstating this again once we return
to finish this up.
The test provider comes with a lot of baggage since it's designed to be
used as a plugin, so instead we'll just use the mock provider
implementation directly, and so we can (in a later commit) configure it
appropriately for what our tests need here.
This is still not compileable because the test provider needs to be
updated to the new provider interface, but all the rest of the types are
now correct so we can update the test provider in a later commit to make
this work again.
Given a module foo and a module foo/bar, the previous code might
incorrectly treat "bar" as a file within "foo" rather than as a module
directory in its own right.
We need to make the collection itself be a tuple or object rather than
list or map in this case, since otherwise all of the elements of the
collection are constrained to be of the same type and that isn't the
intent of a provider indicating that it accepts any type.
This produces a "proposed new state", which already has prior computed
values propagated into it (since that behavior is standard for all
resource types) but could be customized further by the provider to make
the "_planned_ new state".
In the process of implementing this it became clear that our configschema
DecoderSpec behavior is incorrect, since it's producing list values for
NestingList and map values for NestingMap. While that seems like it should
be right, we should actually be using tuple and object types respectively
to allow each block to have a different runtime type in situations where
an attribute is given the type cty.DynamicPseudoType. That's not fixed
here, and so without a further fix list and map blocks will panic here.
The DecoderSpec implementation will be fixed in a subsequent commit.
Due to how often the state and plan types are referenced throughout
Terraform, there isn't a great way to switch them out gradually. As a
consequence, this huge commit gets us from the old world to a _compilable_
new world, but still has a large number of known test failures due to
key functionality being stubbed out.
The stubs here are for anything that interacts with providers, since we
now need to do the follow-up work to similarly replace the old
terraform.ResourceProvider interface with its replacement in the new
"providers" package. That work, along with work to fix the remaining
failing tests, will follow in subsequent commits.
The aim here was to replace all references to terraform.State and its
downstream types with states.State, terraform.Plan with plans.Plan,
state.State with statemgr.State, and switch to the new implementations of
the state and plan file formats. However, due to the number of times those
types are used, this also ended up affecting numerous other parts of core
such as terraform.Hook, the backend.Backend interface, and most of the CLI
commands.
Just as with 5861dbf3fc49b19587a31816eb06f511ab861bb4 before, I apologize
in advance to the person who inevitably just found this huge commit while
spelunking through the commit history.
Any value that is not set in the configuration should decode as a Null
value. Unknown should still be returned if a computed value expression
is unknown.
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.
In order to properly migrate the contents of resource, data, provider and
provisioner blocks we will need the provider's schema in order to
understand what is expected, so we can resolve some ambiguities inherent
in the legacy HCL AST.
This includes an initial prototype of migrating the content of resource
blocks just to verify that the information is being gathered correctly.
As with the rest of the upgrade_native.go file, this will be reorganized
significantly once the basic end-to-end flow is established and we can
see how to organize this code better.
Since schemas are required to interpret provider, resource, and
provisioner attributes in configs, states, and plans, these helpers intend
to make it easier to gather up the the necessary provider types in order
to preload all of the needed schemas before beginning further processing.
Config.ProviderTypes returns directly the list of provider types, since
at this level further detail is not useful: we've not yet run the
provider allocation algorithm, and so the only thing we can reliably
extract here is provider types themselves.
State.ProviderAddrs and Plan.ProviderAddrs each return a list of
absolute provider addresses, which can then be turned into a list of
provider types using the new helper providers.AddressedTypesAbs.
Since we're already using configs.Config throughout core, this also
updates the terraform.LoadSchemas helper to use Config.ProviderTypes
to find the necessary providers, rather than implementing its own
discovery logic. states.State is not yet plumbed in, so we cannot yet
use State.ProviderAddrs to deal with the state but there's a TODO comment
to remind us to update that in a later commit when we swap out
terraform.State for states.State.
A later commit will probably refactor this further so that we can easily
obtain schema for the providers needed to interpret a plan too, but that
is deferred here because further work is required to make core work with
the new plan types first. At that point, terraform.LoadSchemas may become
providers.LoadSchemas with a different interface that just accepts lists
of provider and provisioner names that have been gathered by the caller
using these new helpers.
This is the frontend to the work-in-progress codepath for upgrading the
source code for a module written for Terraform v0.11 or earlier to use
the new syntax and idiom of v0.12.
The underlying upgrade code is not yet complete as of this commit, and
so the command is not yet very useful. We will continue to iterate on
the upgrade code in subsequent commits.
This covers all of the expression node types in HIL's AST, and also
includes initial support for some of our top-level blocks so that we can
easily test that.
The initial implementations of the "variable" and "output" blocks are
pretty redundant and messy, so we can hopefully improve on these in a
later pass.
This function is the main functionality of this package. So far it just
deals with detecting and renaming JSON files that are mislabeled as
native syntax files. Other functionality will follow in later commits.
This package will do all of its work in-memory so that it can avoid making
partial updates and then failing, so we need to be able to load the
sources files from a particular directory into memory.
The upgrade process isn't idempotent, so we also attempt to detect
heuristically whether an upgrade has already been performed (can parse
with the new parser and has a version constraint that prevents versions
earlier than 0.12) so that the CLI tool that will eventually wrap this
will be able to produce a warning and prompt for confirmation in that
case.
Although the new HCL implementation and configuration loader is broadly
compatible with the prior implementation, it has a number of new idiomatic
forms and it also cannot parse some more extreme non-idiomatic usages
that were possible under the old parser.
To help users migrate to the new implementation, this package will rewrite
configuration to comply with the new idiom and fix as many cases as
possible where the legacy parser was too liberal or exposed implementation
details.
It is common for the same module source package to be referenced multiple
times in the same configuration, either because there are literally
multiple instances of the same module source or because a single package
(or repository) contains multiple modules in sub-directories and many
of them are referenced.
To optimize this, here we introduce a simple caching behavior where the
module installer will detect if it's asked to install multiple times from
the same source and produce the second and subsequent directories by
copying the first, rather than by downloading again over the network.
This optimization is applied once all of the go-getter detection has
completed and sub-directory portions have been trimmed, so it is also
able to normalize differently-specified source addresses that all
ultimately detect to the same resolved address. When installing, we
always extract the entire specified package (or repository) and then
reference the specified sub-directory, so we can safely re-use existing
directories when the base package is the same, even if the sub-directory
is different.
However, as a result we do not yet address the fact that the same package
will be stored multiple times _on disk_, which may still be problematic
when referencing large repositories multiple times in
disk-storage-constrained environments. We could address this in a
subsequent change by investigating the use of symlinks where possible.
Since the Registry installer is implemented just as an extra resolution
step in front of go-getter, this optimization applies to registry
modules too. This does not apply to local relative references, which will
continue to just resolve into the already-prepared directory of their
parent module.
The cache of previously installed paths lives only for the duration of
one call to InstallModules, so we will never re-use directories that
were created by previous runs of "terraform init" and there is no risk
that older versions will pollute the cache when attempting an upgrade
from a source address that doesn't explicitly specify a version.
No additional tests are added here because the existing module installer
tests (when TF_ACC=1) already cover the case of installing multiple
modules from the same source.
Here we introduce a new idea of a "configuration snapshot", which is an
in-memory copy of the source code of each of the files that make up
the configuration. The primary intended purpose for this is as an
intermediate step before writing the configuration files into a plan file,
and then reading them out when that plan file is later applied.
During earlier configs package development we expected to use an afero vfs
implementation to read directly from the zip file, but that doesn't work
in practice because we need to preserve module paths from the source file
system that might include parent directory traversals (../) while
retaining the original path for use in error messages.
The result, for now, is a bit of an abstraction inversion: we implement
a specialized afero vfs implementation that makes the sparse filesystem
representation from a snapshot appear like a normal filesystem just well
enough that the config loader and parser can work with it.
In future we may wish to rework the internals here so that the main
abstraction is at a similar level to the snapshot and then that API is
mapped to the native filesystem in the normal case, removing afero. For
now though, this approach avoids the need for a significant redesign
of the parser/loader internals, at the expense of some trickiness in the
case where we're reading from a snapshot.
This commit does not yet include the reading and writing of snapshots into
plan files. That will follow in a subsequent commit.
This is important in particular for shimming the "providers" map in module
blocks:
providers = {
"aws" = "aws.foo"
}
We call this shim for both the key and the value here, and the value would
previously have worked. However, the key is wrapped up by the parser in
an ObjectConsKeyExpr container, which deals with the fact that in normal
use an object constructor key that is just a bare identifier is actually
interpreted as a string. We don't care about that interpretation for our
shimming purposes, and so we can just unwrap it here.
Throughout the main "terraform" package we identify resources using the
address types, and so this helper is useful to make concise transitions
between the address types and the configuration types.
As part of this, we use the address types to produce the keys used in our
resource maps. This has no visible change in behavior since the prior
implementation produced an equal result, but this change ensures that
ResourceByAddr cannot be broken by hypothetical future changes to the
key serialization.
