* huge change to weave new addrs.Provider into addrs.ProviderConfig
* terraform: do not include an empty string in the returned Providers /
Provisioners
- Fixed a minor bug where results included an extra empty string
Add deprecation warning for references from destroy provisioners or
their connections to external resources or values. In order to ensure
resource destruction can be completed correctly, destroy nodes must be
able to evaluate with only their instance state.
We have sufficient information to validate destroy-time provisioners
early on during the config loading process. Later on these can be
converted to hard errors, and only allow self, count.index, and each.key
in destroy provisioners. Limited the provisioner and block evaluation
scope later on is tricky, but if the references can never be loaded,
then they will never be encountered during evaluation.
Following on from de652e22a26b, this introduces deprecation warnings for
when an attribute value expression is a template with only a single
interpolation sequence, and for variable type constraints given in quotes.
As with the previous commit, we allowed these deprecated forms with no
warning for a few releases after v0.12.0 to ensure that folks who need to
write cross-compatible modules for a while during upgrading would be able
to do so, but we're now marking these as explicitly deprecated to guide
users towards the new idiomatic forms.
The "terraform 0.12upgrade" tool would've already updated configurations
to not hit these warnings for those who had pre-existing configurations
written for Terraform 0.11.
The main target audience for these warnings are newcomers to Terraform who
are learning from existing examples already published in various spots on
the wider internet that may be showing older Terraform syntax, since those
folks will not be running their configurations through the upgrade tool.
These warnings will hopefully guide them towards modern Terraform usage
during their initial experimentation, and thus reduce the chances of
inadvertently adopting the less-readable legacy usage patterns in
greenfield projects.
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 also fixes a few things with resource for_each:
It makes validation more like validation for count.
It makes sure the index is stored in the state properly.
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.
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.
Our new "addrs" package gives us some nice representations of various
kinds of "address" within Terraform. To talk to APIs that use these, it's
convenient to be able to easily derive such addresses from the
configuration objects.
These new methods, along with a recasting of the existing
Resource.ProviderConfigKey method to Resource.ProviderConfigAddr, give us
some key integration points to support the configuration graph transforms
in the main "terraform" package.
This was accidentally missed on the first pass of module call decoding.
As before, this is a map from child provider config address to parent
provider config address, allowing the set of providers to be projected in
arbitrary ways into a child module.
Initially the intent here was to tease these apart a little more since
they don't really share much behavior in common in core, but in practice
it'll take a lot of refactoring to tease apart these assumptions in core
right now and so we'll keep these things unified at the configuration
layer in the interests of minimizing disruption at the core layer.
The two types are still kept in separate maps to help reinforce the fact
that they are separate concepts with some behaviors in common, rather than
the same concept.
For the moment this is just a lightly-adapted copy of
ModuleTreeDependencies named ConfigTreeDependencies, with the goal that
the two can live concurrently for the moment while not all callers are yet
updated and then we can drop ModuleTreeDependencies and its helper
functions altogether in a later commit.
This can then be used to make "terraform init" and "terraform providers"
work properly with the HCL2-powered configuration loader.
The initial pass of implementation here missed the special case where
ignore_changes can, in the old parser, be set to ["*"] to ignore changes
to all attributes.
Since that syntax is awkward and non-obvious, our new decoder will instead
expect ignore_changes = all, using HCL2's capability to interpret an
expression as a literal keyword. For compatibility with old configurations
we will still accept the ["*"] form but emit a deprecation warning to
encourage moving to the new form.
In our new loader we are changing certain values in configuration to be
naked keywords or references rather than quoted strings as before. Since
many of these have been shown in books, tutorials, and our own
documentation we will make the old forms generate deprecation warnings
rather than errors so that newcomers starting from older documentation
can be eased into the new syntax, rather than getting blocked.
This will also avoid creating a hard compatibility wall for reusable
modules that are already published, allowing them to still be used in
spite of these warnings and then fixed when the maintainer is able.
Some of the fields in our config structs are either mandatory in primary
files or there is a default value that we apply if absent.
Unfortunately override files impose the additional constraint that we
be allowed to omit required fields (which have presumably already been
set in the primary files) and that we are able to distinguish between a
default value and omitting a value entirely.
Since most of our fields were already acceptable for override files, here
we just add some new fields to deal with the few cases where special
handling is required and a helper function to disable the "Required" flag
on attributes in a given schema.
This method wraps LoadConfigFile to load all of the .tf and .tf.json files
in a given directory and then bundle them together into a Module object.
This function also deals with the distinction between primary and override
files, first appending together the primary files in lexicographic order
by filename, and then merging in override files in the same order.
The merging behavior is not fully implemented as of this commit, and so
will be expanded in future commits.
This is a first pass of decoding of the main Terraform configuration file
format. It hasn't yet been tested with any real-world configurations, so
it will need to be revised further as we test it more thoroughly.
These types represent the individual elements within configuration, the
modules a configuration is made of, and the configuration (static module
tree) itself.
