This implies some notable changes that will have a visible impact to
end-users of official Terraform releases:
- Terraform is no longer compatible with MacOS 10.10 Yosemite, and
requires at least 10.11 El Capitan. (Relatedly, Go 1.14 is planned to be
the last release to support El Capitan, so while that remains supported
for now, it's notable that Terraform 0.13 is likely to be the last major
release of Terraform supporting it, with 0.14 likely to further require
MacOS 10.12 Sierra.)
- Terraform is no longer compatible with FreeBSD 10.x, which has reached
end-of-life. Terraform now requires FreeBSD 11.2 or later.
- Terraform now supports TLS 1.3 when it makes connections to remote
services such as backends and module registries. Although TLS 1.3 is
backward-compatible in principle, some legacy systems reportedly work
incorrectly when attempting to negotiate it. (This change does not
affect outgoing requests made by provider plugins, though they will see
a similar change in behavior once built with Go 1.13 or later.)
- Ed25519 certificates are now supported for TLS 1.2 and 1.3 connections.
- On UNIX systems where "use-vc" is set in resolv.conf, TCP will now be
used for DNS resolution. This is unlikely to cause issues in practice
because a system set up in this way can presumably already reach its
nameservers over TCP (or else other applications would misbehave), but
could potentially lead to lookup failures in unusual situations where a
system only runs Terraform, has historically had "use-vc" in its
configuration, but yet is blocked from reaching its configured
nameservers over TCP.
- Some parts of Terraform now support Unicode 12.0 when working with
strings. However, notably the Terraform Language itself continues to
use the text segmentation tables from Unicode 9.0, which means it lacks
up-to-date support for recognizing modern emoji combining forms as
single characters. (We may wish to upgrade the text segmentation tables
to Unicode 12.0 tables in a later commit, to restore consistency.)
This also includes some changes to the contents of "vendor", and
particularly to the format of vendor/modules.txt, per the changes to
vendoring in the Go 1.14 toolchain. This new syntax is activated by the
specification of "go 1.14" in the go.mod file.
Finally, the exact format of error messages from the net/http library has
changed since Go 1.12, and so a couple of our tests needed updates to
their expected error messages to match that.
* add TencentCloud COS backend for remote state
* add vendor of dependence
* fixed error not handle and remove default value for prefix argument
* get appid from TF_COS_APPID environment variables
This brings in the new HCL extension functions "try", "can", and
"convert", along with the underlying HCL and cty infrastructure that allow
them to work.
* deps: bump terraform-config-inspect library
* configs: parse `version` in new required_providers block
With the latest version of `terraform-config-inspect`, the
required_providers attribute can now be a string or an object with
attributes "source" and "version". This change allows parsing the
version constraint from the new object while ignoring any given source attribute.
This also includes an upgrade to cty v1.1.1 because HCL calls for it.
The changes in these two libraries are mainly to codepaths that don't
directly affect Terraform, but including this upgrade will cause some
small improvements to Terraform's error messages for type conversion
problems.
In order to make this work reasonably we can't avoid using some funny
heuristics, which are somewhat reasonable to apply within the context of
Terraform itself but would not be good to add to the general "logutils".
Specifically, this is adding the additional heuristic that lines starting
with spaces are continuation lines and so should inherit the log level
of the most recent non-continuation line.
Previously we were using the experimental HCL 2 repository, but now we'll
shift over to the v2 import path within the main HCL repository as part of
actually releasing HCL 2.0 as stable.
This is a mechanical search/replace to the new import paths. It also
switches to the v2.0.0 release of HCL, which includes some new code that
Terraform didn't previously have but should not change any behavior that
matters for Terraform's purposes.
For the moment the experimental HCL2 repository is still an indirect
dependency via terraform-config-inspect, so it remains in our go.sum and
vendor directories for the moment. Because terraform-config-inspect uses
a much smaller subset of the HCL2 functionality, this does still manage
to prune the vendor directory a little. A subsequent release of
terraform-config-inspect should allow us to completely remove that old
repository in a future commit.
This new version includes Solaris support, the lack of which previously
caused us to disable readline-using features ("terraform console") on
Solaris builds.
We'll use this to call the Windows ReplaceFile API for safe file
replacement when updating credentials.tf.json in "terraform login" and
"terraform logout".
The dependencies here are dated and are causing conflicts with the
ACME provider, namely the version of the top-level autorest package.
This explicitly updates the Azure SDK and autorest packages, with the
separately versioned sub-packages being added automatically.
Notable changes (from Terraform AWS Provider CHANGELOG):
```
NOTES:
* backend/s3: Region validation now automatically supports the new `me-south-1` Middle East (Bahrain) region. For AWS operations to work in the new region, the region must be explicitly enabled as outlined in the [previous new region announcement blog post](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/now-open-aws-asia-pacific-hong-kong-region/). When the region is not enabled, the Terraform S3 Backend will return errors during credential validation (e.g. `error validating provider credentials: error calling sts:GetCallerIdentity: InvalidClientTokenId: The security token included in the request is invalid`).
* backend/s3: After this update, the AWS Go SDK will prefer credentials found via the `AWS_PROFILE` environment variable when both the `AWS_PROFILE` environment variable and the `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` environment variables are statically defined. Previously the SDK would ignore the `AWS_PROFILE` environment variable, if static environment credentials were also specified. This is listed as a bug fix in the AWS Go SDK release notes.
ENHANCEMENTS:
* backend/s3: Add support for assuming role via web identity token via the `AWS_WEB_IDENTITY_TOKEN_FILE` and `AWS_ROLE_ARN` environment variables
* backend/s3: Support automatic region validation for `me-south-1`
BUG FIXES:
* backend/s3: Load credentials via the `AWS_PROFILE` environment variable (if available) when `AWS_PROFILE` is defined along with `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`
```
Updated via:
```
go get github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go@v1.21.7
go mod tidy
go mod vendor
```
Verification with this update:
```hcl
terraform {
backend "s3" {
bucket = "me-south-1-testing"
key = "test"
region = "me-south-1"
}
}
output "test" {
value = timestamp()
}
```
Outputs:
```
$ terraform apply
Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.
Outputs:
test = 2019-07-30T12:49:19Z
```
If the new region is not properly enabled for the account, errors like the below will be received:
```
$ terraform init
Initializing the backend...
Error: error validating provider credentials: error calling sts:GetCallerIdentity: InvalidClientTokenId: The security token included in the request is invalid.
```
To use this region before this update:
```hcl
terraform {
# ... potentially other configuration ...
backend "s3" {
# ... other configuration ...
region = "me-south-1"
skip_region_validation = true
}
}
```
