This test highlights how changing an intermediate source path prevents
reloading of submodules. While this is somewhat of an edge case now, it
becomes quite common in the cacse where module versions are updated.
This implements provider inheritance during config loading, rather than
during graph evaluation. At this point it's much simpler to find the
desired configuration, and once all providers are declared, all the
inheritance code in the graph can be removed.
The inheritance is dome by simply copying the RawConfig from the parent
ProviderConfig into the module. Since this happens before any
evaluation, we record the original interpolation scope in the
ProviderConfig so that it can be properly resolved later on.
In order to remain backward compatible with some modules, we need to
handle subdirs during Load. This means duplicating part of the go-getter
code path for subDir handling so we can resolve any subDirs and globs
internally, while keeping the entire remote directory structure within
the file storage.
Test that we can get a subdirectory from a tarball (or any other
"packed" source that we support).
The 'tar-subdir-to-parent' test highlights a regression where the
subdirectory module references a module in its parent directory. This
breaks the intended use ofr the subdirectory and the implementation in
go-getter. We need to fix this in terraform, and possible plan warnings
and deprecations for this type of source.
Fixes#12788
We would panic when referencing an output from an undefined module. The
panic above this is correct but in this case Load will not catch
interpolated variables that _reference_ an unloaded/undefined module.
Test included.
It can be tedious fixing a new module with many errors when Terraform
only outputs the first random error it encounters.
Accumulate all errors from validation, and format them for the user.
Fixes#11038
This is a **short term fix**.
Terraform core doesn't currently handle root modules named "root" well
because the prefix `[]string{"root"}` has special meaning and Terraform
core [currently] can't disambiguate between the root module and a module
named "root" in the root module.
This PR introduces a short term fix by simply disallowing root modules
named "root". This shouldn't break any BC because since 0.8.0 this
didn't work at all in many broken ways (including crashes).
Longer term, this should be fixed by removing the special prefix at all
and having empty paths be root. I started down this path but the core
changes necessary are far too scary for a patch release. We can aim for
0.9.
Fixes#4789
This improves the validation that valid provider aliases are used.
Previously, we required that provider aliases be defined in every module
they're used. This isn't correct because the alias may be used in a
parent module and inherited.
This removes that validation and creates the validation that a provider
alias must be defined in the used module or _any parent_. This allows
inheritance to work properly.
We've always had this type of validation for aliases because we believe
its a good UX tradeoff: typo-ing an alias is really painful, so we
require declaration of alias usage. It may add a small burden to
declare, but since relatively few aliases are used, it improves the
scenario where a user fat-fingers an alias name.
