* command/show: marshal the state snapshot from the planfile
The planfile contains a state snapshot with certain resources updated
(outputs and datasources). Previously `terraform show -json PLANFILE`
was using the current state instead of the state inside the plan as
intended.
This caused an issue when the state included a terraform_remote_state
datasource. The datasource's state gets refreshed - and therefore
upgraded to the current state version - during plan, but that won't
persist to state until apply.
* update comment to reflect new return
In the unlikely event that a moduleCall has a nil config - for example,
if a nested module call includes a variable with a typo in an
attribute - continue gracefully.
* command/show -json: fix panic
afterUnknown should return only bools, not values.
* command/jsonplan: let's delete some redundant code!
the plan output was somewhat inconsistent with return values for
"after_unknown". This strives to fix that. If all "after" values are
known, return an empty object instead of iterating over values.
Also fixing some typos and general copypasta.
There is currently no way to unset -backend-config during init, since
not setting that option assumes the user will use the saved config.
Allow setting `-backend-config=""` to specify no overrides.
The omitUnknowns and unknownAsBool functions were previously trying hard
to preserve the same collection types in the output as they had in the
input, by attempting to keep everything matched up so that the results
would be valid.
Unfortunately, this turns out to be a harder problem than we originally
thought: it was possible for a collection value going in to produce
inconsistent element types out (and thus a panic) in the following
situations:
- when a collection with mixed known and unknown values was passed in
to omitUnknowns.
- when a collection of collections where the inner collections are a
mixture of empty and not empty in unknownAsNull.
The results of these functions are only used to marshal to JSON anyway,
and JSON serialization can't distinguish between the three sequence types
or the two mapping types, so in practice we can just standardize on
converting all sequences to tuple and all mappings to object here and not
change the resulting output at all, and then we don't have to worry about
making sure all of the inner types get preserved exactly.
A nice consequence of that relaxation is that we can now do what we
originally wanted to do with unknownAsBool, and omit map keys and
object attributes altogether if their values would've been false,
producing a much more compact result. This is easiest to do now when
there's only one known user of this JSON plan output, and we know that
user will treat both false and omitted as the same here.
The backend gets to "prepare" the configuration before Configure is
called, in order to validate the values and insert defaults. We don't
want to store this value in the "config state", because it will often
not match the raw config after it is prepared, forcing unecessary
backend migrations during init.
Since PrepareConfig is always called before Configure, we can store the
config value directly, and assume that it will be prepared in the same
manner each time.
If the backend config hashes match during init, and there are no new
backend override options, then we assume the existing config is OK.
Since init should be idempotent, we should be able to run init with no
options or config changes, and not effect the backends at all.
This includes a small fix to ensure the parser doesn't produce an invalid
body for block parsing syntax errors, and instead produces an incomplete
result that calling applications like Terraform can still analyze.
The problem here was affecting our version-constraint-sniffing code, which
intentionally tried to find a core version constraint even if there's a
syntax error so that it can report that a new version of Terraform is a
likely cause of the syntax error. It was working in most cases, unless
it was the "terraform" block itself that contained the error, because then
we'd try to analyze a broken hcl.Block with a nil body.
This includes a new test for "terraform init" that exercises this
recovery codepath.
There are a number of use cases that can require a user to select a workspace after initializing Terraform.
To make sure we cover all these use cases, we will always call the selectWorkspace method to verify a valid workspace is already selected or (if needed) offer to select one before moving on.
cty now guarantees that sets of primitive values will iterate in a
reasonable order. Previously it was the caller's responsibility to deal
with that, but we invariably neglected to do so, causing inconsistent
ordering. Since cty prioritizes consistent behavior over performance, it
now imposes its own sort on set elements as part of iterating over them so
that calling applications don't have to worry so much about it.
This change also causes cty to consistently push unknown and null values
in sets to the end of iteration, where before that was undefined. This
means that our diff output will now consistently list additions before
removals when showing sets, rather than the ordering being undefined as
before.
The ordering of known, non-null, non-primitive values is still not
contractually fixed but remains consistent for a particular version of
cty.
* internal/initwd: Allow deprecated relative module paths
In Terraform 0.11 we deprecated this form but didn't have any explicit
warning for it. Now we'll still accept it but generate a warning. In a
future major release we will drop this form altogether, since it is
ambiguous with registry module source addresses.
This codepath is covered by the command/e2etest suite.
* e2e: Skip copying .exists file, if present
We use this only in the "empty" test fixture in order to let git know that
the directory exists. We need to skip copying it so that we can test
"terraform init -from-module=...", which expects to find an empty
directory.
* command/e2etests: Re-enable and fix up the e2etest "acctests"
We disabled all of the tests that accessed remote services like the
Terraform Registry while they were being updated to support the new
protocols we now expect. With those services now in place, we can
re-enable these tests.
Some details of exactly what output we print, etc, have intentionally
changed since these tests were last updated.
* e2e: refactor for modern states and plans
* command/e2etest: re-enable e2etests and update for tf 0.12 compatibility
plugin/discovery: mkdirAll instead of mkdir when creating cache dir
Once you start reading from stdin, that is a blocking call that will
never finish. So when a context is canceled causing the input method to
return, the read will remain blocking in the running goroutine.
There isn't a real solution for it (e.g. its not possible to unblock the
read) so the only solution is to make the reader reusable.
When rendering the diff, the NoOp changes should come from the LCS
sequence, rather than the new sequence. The two indexes will not align
in many cases, adding the wrong new object or indexing out of bounds.
* command/state_list.go: fix bug loading user-defined state
If the user supplied a state path via the `-state` flag and terraform
was running in a workspace other than `default`, the state was not being
loaded properly. Fixes#19920
In study of existing providers we've found a pattern we werent previously
accounting for of using a nested block type to represent a group of
arguments that relate to a particular feature that is always enabled but
where it improves configuration readability to group all of its settings
together in a nested block.
The existing NestingSingle was not a good fit for this because it is
designed under the assumption that the presence or absence of the block
has some significance in enabling or disabling the relevant feature, and
so for these always-active cases we'd generate a misleading plan where
the settings for the feature appear totally absent, rather than showing
the default values that will be selected.
NestingGroup is, therefore, a slight variation of NestingSingle where
presence vs. absence of the block is not distinguishable (it's never null)
and instead its contents are treated as unset when the block is absent.
This then in turn causes any default values associated with the nested
arguments to be honored and displayed in the plan whenever the block is
not explicitly configured.
The current SDK cannot activate this mode, but that's okay because its
"legacy type system" opt-out flag allows it to force a block to be
processed in this way anyway. We're adding this now so that we can
introduce the feature in a future SDK without causing a breaking change
to the protocol, since the set of possible block nesting modes is not
extensible.
If the registry is unresponsive, you will now get an error
specific to this, rather than a misleading "provider unavailable" type
error. Also adds debug logging for when errors like this may occur
Due to these tests happening in the wrong order, removing an object from
the end of a sequence of objects would previously cause a bounds-check
panic.
Rather than a more severe rework of the logic here, for now we'll just
introduce an extra precondition to prevent the panic. The code that
follows already handles the case where there _is_ no new object (i.e. the
"old" object is being deleted) as long as we're able to pass through this
type-checking logic.
The new "JSON list of objects - removing item" test covers this problem
by rendering a diff for an object being removed from the end of a list
of objects within a JSON value.
Terraform Registry (and other registry implementations) can now return
an array of warnings with the versions response. These warnings are now
displayed to the user during a `terraform init`.
In earlier refactoring we updated these commands to support the new
address and state types, but attempted to partially retain the old-style
"StateFilter" abstraction that originally lived in the Terraform package,
even though that was no longer being used for any other functionality.
Unfortunately the adaptation of the existing filtering to the new types
wasn't exact and so these commands ended up having a few bugs that were
not covered by the existing tests.
Since the old StateFilter behavior was the source of various misbehavior
anyway, here it's removed altogether and replaced with some simpler
functions in the state_meta.go file that are tailored to the use-cases of
these sub-commands.
As well as just generally behaving more consistently with the other
parts of Terraform that use the new resource address types, this commit
fixes the following bugs:
- A resource address of aws_instance.foo would previously match an
resource of that type and name in any module, which disagreed with the
expected interpretation elsewhere of meaning a single resource in the
root module.
- The "terraform state mv" command was not supporting moves from a single
resource address to an indexed address and vice-versa, because the old
logic didn't need to make that distinction while they are two separate
address types in the new logic. Now we allow resources that do not have
count/for_each to be treated as if they are instances for the purposes
of this command, which is a better match for likely user intent and for
the old behavior.
Finally, we also clean up a little some of the usage output from these
commands, which hasn't been updated for some time and so had both some
stale information and some inaccurate terminology.
* command/providers schemas: return empty json object if config parses successfully but no providers found
* command/show (state): return an empty object if state is nil
* configs/configupgrade: detect possible relative module sources
If a module source appears to be a relative local path but does not have
a preceding ./, print a #TODO message for the user.
* internal/initwd: limit go-getter detectors to those supported by terraform
* internal/initwd: move isMaybeRelativeLocalPath check into getWithGoGetter
To avoid making two calls to getter.Detect, which potentially makes
non-trivial API calls, the "isMaybeRelativeLocalPath" check was moved to
a later step and a custom error type was added so user-friendly
diagnostics could be displayed in the event that a possible relative local
path was detected.
Our initial prototype of new-style diff rendering excluded this because
the old SDK has no support for this construct. However, we want to be able
to introduce this construct in the new SDK without breaking compatibility
with existing versions of Terraform Core, so we need to implement it now
so it's ready to be used once the SDK implements it.
The key associated with each block allows us to properly correlate the
items to recognize the difference between an in-place update of an
existing block and the addition/deletion of a block.
Our null-to-empty normalization was previously assuming these would always
be collection types, but that isn't true when a block contains something
dynamic since we must then use tuple or object types instead to properly
represent all of the individual element types.
We use cty a little differently when a nested list block contains a
dynamically-typed attribute: it appears as a tuple value instead of a
list value so that we can retain the individual types of each element.
Here we introduce a test for that case, but doing so required also making
the runTestCases function handle types in a stricter way so that it will
produce planned values that match how Terraform Core would do it,
including the necessary late-bound type information for the
dynamically-typed attribute.
Previously, these commands were not checking if the user specified a
`-plugin-dir` flag during `terraform init` and would therefor fail if
providers were not in one of the standard directories.
Fixes#20547
When the user aborts input, it may end up as an unknown value, which
needs to be converted to null for PrepareConfig.
Allow PrepareConfig to accept null config values in order to fill in
missing defaults.
When a planfile is supplied to the `terraform show -json` command, the
context that loads only included schemas for resources in the plan. We
found an edge case where removing a data source from the configuration
(though only if there are no managed resources from the same provider)
would cause jsonstate.Marshal to fail because the provider schema wasn't
in the plan context.
jsonplan.Marshal now takes two schemas, one for plan and one for state.
If the state schema is nil it will simply use the plan schemas.
* command/show: fixing bugs in modulecalls
jsonconfig and jsonplan both had subtle bugs with the logic for
marshaling module calls that only showed up when multiple modules were
referenced. This PR fixes those bugs and extends the existing tests to
include multiple modules.
* sort all the things, mostly for tests
* docs: update plan command documentation. Fixes#19235
* docs: added a missing reserved variable name. Fixes#19159.
* website: add note that resource names cannot start with a number
* website: add some notes to the 0.12 upgrade guide
We are now allowing the legacy SDK to opt out of the safety checks we try
to do after plan and apply, and so in such cases the before/after values
in planned changes may be inconsistent with our usual rules.
To avoid adding lots of extra complexity to the diff renderer to deal with
these situations, instead we'll normalize the handling of nested blocks
prior to using these values.
In the long run it'd be better to do this normalization at the source,
immediately after we receive an object from a provider using the opt-out,
but we're doing this at the outermost layer for now to avoid risking
unintended impacts on other Terraform Core components when we're just
about to enter the beta phase of the v0.12.0 release cycle.
This mirrors the change made for providers, so that default values can
be inserted into the config by the backend implementation. This is only
the interface and method name changes, it does not yet add any default
values.
We brought forward a new implementation of "terraform validate" that was
originally scheduled for a later release after finding that it would be
simpler than reworking the old implementation for new v0.12 assumptions,
but we didn't yet implement "terraform plan -validate-only" in spite of
it being mentioned in the updated docs for "terraform validate".
For now then, the documentation will make the weaker suggestion of running
"terraform plan" to validate a particular _run_ rather than a particular
_module_, which is the closest thing we have for now. At some point after
v0.12.0 we will evaluate whether a validate-only mode for "terraform plan"
(which could then run without configuring the providers at all) is needed.
A common new-user mistake is to place variable _declarations_ into .tfvars
files instead of variable _values_. To guide towards the correct approach
here, we add a specialized error message for that situation that includes
guidance on the distinction between declaring and setting values for
variables, and an example of what setting a value should look like.
* command/jsonconfig: provider config marshaling enhancements
This PR fixes a bug wherein the keys in "provider_config" were the
"addrs.ProviderConfig", and therefore being overwritten for each module,
instead of the intended "addrs.AbsProviderConfig".
We realized that there was still opportunity for ambiguity, for example
if a user made a provider alias that was the same name as a module, so
we opted to use the syntax `modulename:providername(.provideralias)`
* command/json*: fixed a bug where we were attempting to lookup schemas
with the provider name, instead of provider type.
* command/show: add "module_version" to "module_calls" in config portion
of `terraform show`.
Also extended the `terraform show -json` test to run `init` so we could
add examples with modules. This does _not_ test the "module_version"
yet, but it _did_ help expose a bug in jsonplan where modules were
duplicated. This is also fixed in this PR.
* command/jsonconfig: rename version to version_constraint and
resolved_source to source.
* command/jsonconfig: display module variables in config output
The tests have been updated to reflect this change.
* command/jsonconfig: properly handle variables with nil defaults
Now that we're actually verifying correct behavior of providers during
plan and apply, our mock providers need to behave like real providers,
properly propagating any configured values through the plan and into the
final state.
For most of these it was simpler to just switch over to using the newer
PlanResourceChangeFn mock interface, away from the legacy DiffFn approach,
because then we can just return the ProposedNewState verbatim because our
schema for these tests does not require any default values to be
populated.
* command/jsonplan:
- add variables to plan output
- print known planned values for resources
Previously, resource attribute values were only displayed if the values
were wholly known. Now we will filter the unknown values out of the
change and print the known values.
* command/jsonstate: added depends_on and tainted fields
* command/show: update tests to reflect added fields
We now require a provider to populate all of its defaults -- including
unknown value placeholders -- during PlanResourceChange. That means the
mock provider for testing "terraform show -json" must now manage the
population of the computed "id" attribute during plan.
To make this logic a little easier, we also change the ApplyResourceChange
implementation to fill in a non-null id, since that makes it easier for
the mock PlanResourceChange to recognize when it needs to populate that
default value during an update.
* command/jsonstate: do not hide SchemaVersion of '0'
* command/jsonconfig: module_calls should be a map
* command/jsonplan: include current terraform version in output
* command/jsonconfig: properly marshal expressions from a module call
Previously this was looking at the root module's variables, instead of
the child module variables, to build the module schema. This fixes that
bug.
* command/show: add support for -json output for state
* command/jsonconfig: do not marshal empty count/for each expressions
* command/jsonstate: continue gracefully if the terraform version is somehow missing from state
* command/jsonplan: sort resources by address
* command/show: extend test case to include resources with count
* command/json*: document resource ordering as consistent but undefined
* command/show: properly marshal attribute values to json
marshalAttributeValues in jsonstate and jsonplan packages was returning
a cty.Value, which json/encoding could not marshal. These functions now
convert those cty.Values into json.RawMessages.
* command/jsonplan: planned values should include resources that are not changing
* command/jsonplan: return a filtered list of proposed 'after' attributes
Previously, proposed 'after' attributes were not being shown if the
attributes were not WhollyKnown. jsonplan now iterates through all the
`after` attributes, omitting those which are not wholly known.
The same was roughly true for after_unknown, and that structure is now
correctly populated. In the future we may choose to filter the
after_unknown structure to _only_ display unknown attributes, instead of
all attributes.
* command/jsonconfig: use a unique key for providers so that aliased
providers don't get munged together
This now uses the same "provider" key from configs.Module, e.g.
`providername.provideralias`.
* command/jsonplan: unknownAsBool needs to iterate through objects that are not wholly known
* command/jsonplan: properly display actions as strings according to the RFC,
instead of a plans.Action string.
For example:
a plans.Action string DeleteThenCreate should be displayed as ["delete",
"create"]
Tests have been updated to reflect this.
* command/jsonplan: return "null" for unknown list items.
The length of a list could be meaningful on its own, so we will turn
unknowns into "null". The same is less likely true for maps and objects,
so we will continue to omit unknown values from those.
We missed this on the initial update pass because this was calling
directly into the module package API rather than going through the Meta
methods that we updated for the new config loader.
m.installModules here is the same method that "terraform init" is using
for this purpose, ensuring the two will behave the same way. This changes
the output a little compared to the old installer, but it still includes
the important information about where each module is coming from.
This possibility was lost in the rewrite to use HCL2, but it's used by
a number of external utilities and text editor integrations, so we'll
restore it here.
Using the stdin/stdout mode is generally preferable for text editor use
since it allows formatting of the in-memory buffer rather than directly
the file on disk, but for editors that don't have support for that sort of
tooling it can be convenient to just launch a single command and directly
modify the on-disk file.
Since the HCL formatter only works with tokens, it can in principle be
called with any input and produce some output. However, when given invalid
syntax it will tend to produce nonsensical results that may drastically
change the input file and be hard for the user to undo.
Since there's no strong reason to try to format an invalid or incomplete
file, we'll instead try parsing first and fail if parsing does not
complete successfully.
Since we talk directly to the HCL API here this is only a _syntax_ check,
and so it can be applied to files that are invalid in other ways as far
as Terraform is concerned, such as using unsupported top-level block types,
resource types that don't exist, etc.
