If registry API discovery fails for a particular host then it's better to
generate an explicit error message for that early -- so we can tell the
user exactly what happened -- rather than assuming a default path and
then failing downstream when we get a 404 from that request.
This is a significant rework of the Modules getting started guide to be
in terms of the Consul module available via the Terraform Registry. This
allows us to introduce the registry as part of the tutorial, and also
gives us some auto-generated documentation to link to as context for
the tutorial.
This new module is designed pretty differently than the one we formerly
used, and in particular it doesn't expose any server addresses for the
created Consul cluster -- due to using an auto-scaling group -- and thus
we're forced to use the (arguably-less-compelling) auto-scaling group name
for our output example.
Now includes more complete information on usage of private registries and
updates the module registry API documentation to include the new
version-enumeration endpoint along with describing Terraform's discovery
protocol.
The modules mechanism has changed quite a bit for version 0.11 and so
although simple usage remains broadly compatible there are some
significant changes in the behavior of more complex modules.
Since large parts of this were rewritten anyway, I also took the
opportunity to do some copy-editing to make the prose on this page more
consistent with our usual editorial voice and to wrap the long
lines.
In the 0.10 release we added an opt-in mode where Terraform would prompt
interactively for confirmation during apply. We made this opt-in to give
those who wrap Terraform in automation some time to update their scripts
to explicitly opt out of this behavior where appropriate.
Here we switch the default so that a "terraform apply" with no arguments
will -- if it computes a non-empty diff -- display the diff and wait for
the user to type "yes" in similar vein to the "terraform destroy" command.
This makes the commonly-used "terraform apply" a safe workflow for
interactive use, so "terraform plan" is now mainly for use in automation
where a separate planning step is used. The apply command remains
non-interactive when given an explicit plan file.
The previous behavior -- though not recommended -- can be obtained by
explicitly setting the -auto-approve option on the apply command line,
and indeed that is how all of the tests are updated here so that they can
continue to run non-interactively.
While the TLS handshakes are a fairly small overhead compared to
downloading the providers, clients in some situation are failing to
complete the TLS handshake in a timely manner. It's unclear if this is
because of heavily constrained clients are stalling while doing the
major crpto operations, or the edge servers are throttling repeated
requests from the same IPs.
This should allow reusing the open TLS connection to the release edge
servers during init.
This patch allows `build.sh` to be used with terraform plugins to
easily create cross-platform packages, using the same method as the
terraform Makefile:
```
mkdir scripts
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hashicorp/terraform/master/scripts/build.sh -o scripts/build.sh
TF_RELEASE=1 sh -c "scripts/build.sh" # make bin
```
It's not always easy or convenient for a web application to determine its
own absolute URL to return, so here we pragmatically allow the download
source string from a registry to be a path relative to the download
endpoint.
Since X-Terraform-Get is a go-getter string, not all valid values are
valid URLs and so we sniff for certain relative-path-looking prefixes
in order to decide whether to apply the relative lookup transform.
Reuse the running consul server for all tests.
Update the lostLockConnection package, since the api client should no
longer lose a lock immediately on network errors.
This is from a commit just after the v1.0.0 release, because it removes
the Porter service dependency for tests. The client api package was not
changed.
Previously we forced all remote state backends to be wrapped in a
BackupState wrapper that generates a local "terraform.tfstate.backup"
file before updating the remote state.
This backup mechanism was motivated by allowing users to recover a
previous state if user error caused an undesirable change such as loss
of the record of one or more resources. However, it also has the downside
of flushing a possibly-sensitive state to local disk in a location where
users may not realize its purpose and accidentally check it into version
control. Those using remote state would generally prefer that state never
be flushed to local disk at all.
The use-case of recovering older states can be dealt with for remote
backends by selecting a backend that has preservation of older versions
as a first-class feature, such as S3 versioning or Terraform Enterprise's
first-class historical state versioning mechanism.
There remains still one case where state can be flushed to local disk: if
a write to the remote backend fails during "terraform apply" then we will
still create the "errored.tfstate" file to allow the user to recover. This
seems like a reasonable compromise because this is done only in an
_exceptional_ case, and the console output makes it very clear that this
file has been created.
Fixes#15339.
Add GetModule for the cli to initialize from a regisry module source.
Storage.GetModule fetches a module using the same detection and
discovery as used by the normal module loading. The final copy is still
done by module.GetCopy to remove vcs files.
Since bucket names must be *globally* unique. By including the project
ID in the bucket name we ensure that people don't step on each other's
feet when testing.
This calls backend.TestBackend() and remote.TestRemoteLocks() for
standardized acceptance tests. It removes custom listing tests since
those are performed by backend.TestBackend(), too.
Since each tests uses its own bucket, all tests can be run in parallel.
