When using the enhanced remote backend, a subset of all Terraform
operations are supported. Of these, only plan and apply can be executed
on the remote infrastructure (e.g. Terraform Cloud). Other operations
run locally and use the remote backend for state storage.
This causes problems when the local version of Terraform does not match
the configured version from the remote workspace. If the two versions
are incompatible, an `import` or `state mv` operation can cause the
remote workspace to be unusable until a manual fix is applied.
To prevent this from happening accidentally, this commit introduces a
check that the local Terraform version and the configured remote
workspace Terraform version are compatible. This check is skipped for
commands which do not write state, and can also be disabled by the use
of a new command-line flag, `-ignore-remote-version`.
Terraform version compatibility is defined as:
- For all releases before 0.14.0, local must exactly equal remote, as
two different versions cannot share state;
- 0.14.0 to 1.0.x are compatible, as we will not change the state
version number until at least Terraform 1.1.0;
- Versions after 1.1.0 must have the same major and minor versions, as
we will not change the state version number in a patch release.
If the two versions are incompatible, a diagnostic is displayed,
advising that the error can be suppressed with `-ignore-remote-version`.
When this flag is used, the diagnostic is still displayed, but as a
warning instead of an error.
Commands which will not write state can assert this fact by calling the
helper `meta.ignoreRemoteBackendVersionConflict`, which will disable the
checks. Those which can write state should instead call the helper
`meta.remoteBackendVersionCheck`, which will return diagnostics for
display.
In addition to these explicit paths for managing the version check, we
have an implicit check in the remote backend's state manager
initialization method. Both of the above helpers will disable this
check. This fallback is in place to ensure that future code paths which
access state cannot accidentally skip the remote version check.
The remote backend tests spent most of their execution time sleeping in
various polling and backoff waits. This is unnecessary when testing
against a mock server, so reduce all of these delays when under test to
much lower values.
Only one remaining test has an artificial delay: verifying the discovery
of services against an unknown hostname. This times out at DNS
resolution, which is more difficult to fix than seems worth it at this
time.
Until now the default workspace for every project would have the ID 1,
which would make it impossible to lock them at the same time since we
use the ID to identify the lock. With a global sequence to generate the
IDs, the default workspace will now have a different ID for each project
and it will be possible to lock multiple unrelated projects at the same
time.
If an old version of Terraform tries to get the lock on a project created
with this new version it will work as we continue to use the ID of the
workspace, we just change the way we generate them.
If this version tries to get a lock on a project created by an old
version of Terraform it will work as usual, but we may encounter a
conflict with another unrelated project. This is already the current
behavior so it's not an issue to persist this behavior. As users migrate
to an up-to-date version of Terraform this will stop.
Projects already present in the database will keep their conflicting IDs,
I did not wanted to change them as users may be reading the states
directly in the database for some reason. They can if they want change
them manually to remove conflicts, newly created projects will work
without manual intervention.

When rendering planned output changes, we need to filter the plan's
output changes to ensure that only root module outputs which have
changed are rendered. Otherwise we will render changes for submodule
outputs, and (with concise diff disabled) render unchanged outputs also.
Use a single log writer instance for all std library logging.
Setup the std log writer in the logging package, and remove boilerplate
from test packages.
A cost estimation error does not actually stop a run, so the run was continuing in the background after the cli exits, causing confusion. This change matches the UI behavior.
pathorcontents was solely used by the gcs backend. I moved the function
into the backend package so it could still be used by other backends for
good measure.
* remove unused code
I've removed the provider-specific code under registry, and unused nil
backend, and replaced a call to helper from backend/oss (the other
callers of that func are provisioners scheduled to be deprecated).
I also removed the Dockerfile, as our build process uses a different
file.
Finally I removed the examples directory, which had outdated examples
and links. There are better, actively maintained examples available.
* command: remove various unused bits
* test wasn't running
* backend: remove unused err
When rendering a diff between current state and projected state, we only
show resources and outputs which have changes. However, we show a full
structural diff for these values, which includes all attributes and
blocks for a changed resource or output. The result can be a very long
diff, which makes it difficult to verify what the changed fields are.
This commit adds an experimental concise diff renderer, which suppresses
most unchanged fields, only displaying the most relevant changes and
some identifying context. This means:
- Always show all identifying attributes, initially defined as `id`,
`name`, and `tags`, even if unchanged;
- Only show changed, added, or removed primitive values: `string`,
`number`, or `bool`;
- Only show added or removed elements in unordered collections and
structural types: `map`, `set`, and `object`;
- Show added or removed elements with any surrounding unchanged elements
for sequence types: `list` and `tuple`;
- Only show added or removed nested blocks, or blocks with changed
attributes.
If any attributes, collection elements, or blocks are hidden, a count
is kept and displayed at the end of the parent scope. This ensures that
it is clear that the diff is only displaying a subset of the resource.
The experiment is currently enabled by default, but can be disabled by
setting the TF_X_CONCISE_DIFF environment variable to 0.
This pull reverts a recent change to backend/local which created two context, one with and one without state. Instead I have removed the state entirely from the validate graph (by explicitly passing a states.NewState() to the validate graph builder).
This changed caused a test failure, which (ty so much for the help) @jbardin discovered was inaccurate all along: the test's call to `Validate()` was actually what was removing the output from state. The new expected test output matches terraform's actual behavior on the command line: if you use -target to destroy a resource, an output that references only that resource is *not* removed from state even though that test would lead you to believe it did.
This includes two tests to cover the expected behavior:
TestPlan_varsUnset has been updated so it will panic if it gets more than one request to input a variable
TestPlan_providerArgumentUnset covers #26035Fixes#26035, #26027
The Consul KV store limits the size of the values in the KV store to 524288
bytes. Once the state reaches this limit Consul will refuse to save it. It is
currently possible to try to bypass this limitation by enable Gzip but the issue
will manifest itself later. This is particularly inconvenient as it is possible
for the state to reach this limit without changing the Terraform configuration
as datasources or computed attributes can suddenly return more data than they
used to. Several users already had issues with this.
To fix the problem once and for all we now split the payload in chunks of 524288
bytes when they are to large and store them separatly in the KV store. A small
JSON payload that references all the chunks so we can retrieve them later and
concatenate them to reconstruct the payload.
While this has the caveat of requiring multiple calls to Consul that cannot be
done as a single transaction as those have the same size limit, we use unique
paths for the chunks and CAS when setting the last payload so possible issues
during calls to Put() should not result in unreadable states.

When the path ends with / (e.g. `path = "tfstate/"), the lock
path used will contain two consecutive slashes (e.g. `tfstate//.lock`) which
Consul does not accept.
This change the lock path so it is sanitized to `tfstate/.lock`.
If the user has two different Terraform project, one with `path = "tfstate"` and
the other with `path = "tfstate/"`, the paths for the locks will be the same
which will be confusing as locking one project will lock both. I wish it were
possible to forbid ending slashes altogether but doing so would require all
users currently having an ending slash in the path to manually move their
Terraform state and would be a poor user experience.
Closes https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/15747
When locking was enabled with the Consul backend and the lock not properly
released, the `terraform force-unlock <lock_id>` command would do nothing as
its implementation would exit early in that case.
It now destroys the session that created the lock and clean both the lock and
the lock-info keys.
A regression test is added to TestConsul_destroyLock() to catch the issue if it
happends again.

Most of the state package has been deprecated by the states package.
This PR replaces all the references to the old state package that
can be done simply - the low-hanging fruit.
* states: move state.Locker to statemgr
The state.Locker interface was a wrapper around a statemgr.Full, so
moving this was relatively straightforward.
* command: remove unnecessary use of state package for writing local terraform state files
* move state.LocalState into terraform package
state.LocalState is responsible for managing terraform.States, so it
made sense (to me) to move it into the terraform package.
* slight change of heart: move state.LocalState into clistate instead of
terraform
* unlock the state if Context() has an error, exactly as backend/remote does today
* terraform console and terraform import will exit before unlocking state in case of error in Context()
* responsibility for unlocking state in the local backend is pushed down the stack, out of backend.go and into each individual state operation
* add tests confirming that state is not locked after apply and plan
* backend/local: add checks that the state is unlocked after operations
This adds tests to plan, apply and refresh which validate that the state
is unlocked after all operations, regardless of exit status. I've also
added specific tests that force Context() to fail during each operation
to verify that locking behavior specifically.
The validate command should work with the configuration, but when
validate was run at the start of a plan or apply command the state was
inserted in preparation for the next walk. This could lead to errors
when the resource schemas had changes and the state could not be
upgraded or decoded.
* command/console: return in case of errors before trying to unlock remote
state
The remote backend `Context` would exit without an active lock if there
was an error, while the local backend `Context` exited *with* a lock. This
caused a problem in `terraform console`, which would call unlock
regardless of error status.
This commit makes the local and remote backend consistently unlock the
state incase of error, and updates terraform console to check for errors
before trying to unlock the state.

* backend/remote: do not panic if PrepareConfig or Configure receive null
objects
If a user cancels (ctrl-c) terraform init while it is requesting missing
configuration options for the remote backend, the PrepareConfig and
Configure functions would receive a null cty.Value which would result in
panics. This PR adds a check for null objects to the two functions in
question.
Fixes#23992
This is a baby-step towards an intended future where all Terraform actions
which have side-effects in either remote objects or the Terraform state
can go through the plan+apply workflow.
This initial change is focused only on allowing plan+apply for changes to
root module output values, so that these can be written into a new state
snapshot (for consumption by terraform_remote_state elsewhere) without
having to go outside of the primary workflow by running
"terraform refresh".
This is also better than "terraform refresh" because it gives an
opportunity to review the proposed changes before applying them, as we're
accustomed to with resource changes.
The downside here is that Terraform Core was not designed to produce
accurate changesets for root module outputs. Although we added a place for
it in the plan model in Terraform 0.12, Terraform Core currently produces
inaccurate changesets there which don't properly track the prior values.
We're planning to rework Terraform Core's evaluation approach in a
forthcoming release so it would itself be able to distinguish between the
prior state and the planned new state to produce an accurate changeset,
but this commit introduces a temporary stop-gap solution of implementing
the logic up in the local backend code, where we can freeze a snapshot of
the prior state before we take any other actions and then use that to
produce an accurate output changeset to decide whether the plan has
externally-visible side-effects and render any changes to output values.
This temporary approach should be replaced by a more appropriately-placed
solution in Terraform Core in a release, which should then allow further
behaviors in similar vein, such as user-visible drift detection for
resource instances.

The remote server might choose to skip running cost estimation for a
targeted plan, in which case we'll show a note about it in the UI and then
move on, rather than returning an "invalid status" error.
This new status isn't yet available in the go-tfe library as a constant,
so for now we have the string directly in our switch statement. This is
a pragmatic way to expedite getting the "critical path" of this feature
in place without blocking on changes to ancillary codebases. A subsequent
commit should switch this over to tfe.CostEstimateSkippedDueToTargeting
once that's available in a go-tfe release.
Previously we did not allow -target to be used with the remote backend
because there was no way to send the targets to Terraform Cloud/Enterprise
via the API.
There is now an attribute in the request for creating a plan that allows
us to send target addresses, so we'll remove that restriction and copy
the given target addresses into the API request.
This includes a new TargetAddrs field on both Run and RunCreateOptions
which we'll use to send resource addresses that were specified using
-target on the CLI command line when using the remote backend.
There were some unrelated upstream breaking changes compared to the last
version we had vendored, so this commit also includes some changes to the
backend/remote package to work with this new API, which now requires the
remote backend to be aware of the remote system's opaque workspace id.
Both differing serials and lineage protections should be bypassed
with the -force flag (in addition to resources).
Compared to other backends we aren’t just shipping over the state
bytes in a simple payload during the persistence phase of the push
command and the force flag added to the Go TFE client needs to be
specified at that time.
To prevent changing every method signature of PersistState of the
remote client I added an optional interface that provides a hook
to flag the Client as operating in a force push context. Changing
the method signature would be more explicit at the cost of not
being used anywhere else currently or the optional interface pattern
could be applied to the state itself so it could be upgraded to
support PersistState(force bool) only when needed.
Prior to this only the resources of the state were checked for
changes not the lineage or the serial. To bring this in line with
documented behavior noted above those attributes also have a “read”
counterpart just like state has. These are now checked along with
state to determine if the state as a whole is unchanged.
Tests were altered to table driven test format and testing was
expanded to include WriteStateForMigration and its interaction
with a ClientForcePusher type.
