Make use of the new Dependencies field in the instance state.
The inter-instance dependencies will be determined from the complete
reference graph, so that absolute addresses can be stored, rather than
just references within a module. The Dependencies are added to the node
in the same manner as state, i.e. via an "attacher" interface and
transformer. This is because dependencies are calculated from the graph
itself, and not from the config.
There are some differences between the Terraform CLI and Terraform Cloud ideas of workspaces.
This documentation aims to explain those differences and show different patterns for configuring the remote backend and the implications of different approaches.
The grpc protocol requires strings to be valid utf8, but because
provisioners often don't have control over the command output, invalid
utf8 sequences can make it into the response causing grpc transport
errors.
Replace all invalid utf sequences with the standard utf replacement
character in the provisioner output. The code is a direct copy from the
go1.13 std library, and can be replaced with strings.ToValidUTF8 once
it's available.
This is the latest 1.12 minor release at the time of writing. We are not
yet upgrading to Go 1.13 because it ends support for MacOS 10.10 and
earlier (Yosemite) and for versions of FreeBSD prior to 11.2, and so we
need to make that switch with care to properly phase those out as
supported platforms in Terraform too.
This "Plan" type, along with the other types it directly or indirectly
embeds and the associated functions, are adaptations of the
flatmap-oriented plan renderer logic from Terraform 0.11 and prior.
The current diff rendering logic is in diff.go, and so the contents of the
plan.go file are defunct apart from the DiffActionSymbol function that
both implementations share. Therefore here we move DiffActionSymbol into
diff.go and then remove plan.go entirely, in the interests of dead code
removal.
During the Terraform 0.12 work we briefly had a partial update of the old
Terraform 0.11 (and prior) diff renderer that could work with the new
plan structure, but could produce only partial results.
We switched to the new plan implementation prior to release, but the
"terraform show" command was left calling into the old partial
implementation, and thus produced incomplete results when rendering a
saved plan.
Here we instead use the plan rendering logic from the "terraform plan"
command, making the output of both identical.
Unfortunately, due to the current backend architecture that logic lives
inside the local backend package, and it contains some business logic
around state and schema wrangling that would make it inappropriate to move
wholesale into the command/format package. To allow for a low-risk fix to
the "terraform show" output, here we avoid some more severe refactoring by
just exporting the rendering functionality in a way that allows the
"terraform show" command to call into it.
In future we'd like to move all of the code that actually writes to the
output into the "command" package so that the roles of these components
are better segregated, but that is too big a change to block fixing this
issue.
As mentioned in #17871 the current example can hide the fact that the module
path plays an important role. The example's explanation is expanded.
Moreover, the verb "attach" is replaced with "map" to make the vocabulary
consistent with the wording in the documentation of the terraform state.
For remote operations, the remote system (Terraform Cloud or Enterprise)
writes the stored variable values into a .tfvars file before running the
remote copy of Terraform CLI.
By contrast, for operations that only run locally (like
"terraform import"), we fetch the stored variable values from the remote
API and add them into the set of available variables directly as part
of creating the local execution context.
Previously in the local-only case we were assuming that all stored
variables are strings, which isn't true: the Terraform Cloud/Enterprise UI
allows users to specify that a particular variable is given as an HCL
expression, in which case the correct behavior is to parse and evaluate
the expression to obtain the final value.
This also addresses a related issue whereby previously we were forcing
all sensitive values to be represented as a special string "<sensitive>".
That leads to type checking errors for any variable specified as having
a type other than string, so instead here we use an unknown value as a
placeholder so that type checking can pass.
Unpopulated sensitive values may cause errors downstream though, so we'll
also produce a warning for each of them to let the user know that those
variables are not available for local-only operations. It's a warning
rather than an error so that operations that don't rely on known values
for those variables can potentially complete successfully.
This can potentially produce errors in situations that would've been
silently ignored before: if a remote variable is marked as being HCL
syntax but is not valid HCL then it will now fail parsing at this early
stage, whereas previously it would've just passed through as a string
and failed only if the operation tried to interpret it as a non-string.
However, in situations like these the remote operations like
"terraform plan" would already have been failing with an equivalent
error message anyway, so it's unlikely that any existing workspace that
is being used for routine operations would have such a broken
configuration.
We need to be able to reference all possible dependencies for ordering
when the configuration is no longer present, which means that absolute
addresses must be used. Since this is only to recreate the proper
ordering for instance destruction, only resources addresses need to be
listed rather than individual instance addresses.
The fallback type for GetResource from an EachMap is a cty.Object,
because resource schemas may contain dynamically typed attributes.
Check for an Object type in the evaluation of self, to use the proper
GetAttr method when extracting the value.
These are often confusing for new contributors, since this looks
suspiciously like the right place to add new functions or change the
behavior of existing ones.
To reduce that confusion, here we remove them entirely from this package
(which is now dead code in Terraform 0.12 anyway) and include in the
documentation comments a pointer to the current function implementations.
