If a flatmap value has a count of 1 and no other attributes, it usually
indicates the equivalent configuration of an empty (or default value)
set block. Treat this as containing a single zero value object and
insert that into the set.
Due to incorrect use of a loop iterator variable inside a closure, all of
the given providers were ending up with the same factory function.
Now we copy the factory function to a local within the loop first so that
each iteration has its own variable.
This is the second round of similar bugs in this function, so we'll also
add a test case for it to reduce the risk of future regressions given that
most real callers don't exercise this with multiple providers in practice.
We missed this one on a previous pass of bringing in most of the cty
stdlib functions.
This will resolve#17625 by allowing conversion from Terraform's
conventional RFC 3339 timestamps into various other formats.
We use a shim to convert from the new state model back to the old because
the provider test API is still using the old API throughout. However, the
shim was not preserving the schema version recorded in the new-style state
and so a round-trip through this shim would cause the schema versions to
all revert to zero.
This can cause trouble with the destroy phase of provider tests because
(for API legacy reasons) we round-trip from old state back to new again
before the destroy phase and thus causing the providers to try to upgrade
from state version zero even though the data was already latest, which
can cause errors because state upgrades are generally not idempotent.
With the introduction of explicit "null" in 0.12 it's possible for a value
that is unknown during plan to become a known null during apply, so we
need to slightly weaken our validation rules to accommodate that, in
particular skipping the validation of conflicting attributes if the result
could potentially be valid after the unknown values become known.
This change is in the codepath that is common to both 0.12 and 0.11
callers, but that's safe because 0.11 re-runs validation during the apply
step and so will still catch problems here, albeit in the apply step
rather than in the plan step, thus matching the 0.12 behavior. This new
behavior is a superset of the old in the sense that everything that was
valid before is still valid.
The implementation here also causes us to skip all other validation for
an attribute whose value is unknown. Most of the downstream validation
functions handle this directly anyway, but again this doesn't add any new
failure cases, and should clean up some of the rough edges we've seen with
unknown values in 0.11 once people upgrade to 0.12-compatible providers.
Any issues we now short-circuit during planning will still be caught
during apply.
While working on this I found that the existing "Not a list" test was not
actually testing the correct behavior, so this also includes a tweak to
that to ensure that it really is checking the "should be a list" path
rather than the "cannot be set" codepath it was inadvertently testing
before.
This function is similar to the template_file data source offered by the
template provider, but having it built in to the language makes it more
convenient to use, allowing templates to be rendered from files anywhere
an inline template would normally be allowed:
user_data = templatefile("${path.module}/userdata.tmpl", {
hostname = format("petserver%02d", count.index)
})
Unlike the template_file data source, this function allows values of any
type in its variables map, passing them through verbatim to the template.
Its tighter integration with Terraform also allows it to return better
error messages with source location information from the template itself.
The template_file data source was originally created to work around the
fact that HIL didn't have any support for map values at the time, and
even once map support was added it wasn't very usable. With HCL2
expressions, there's little reason left to use a data source to render
a template; the only remaining reason left to use template_file is to
render a template that is constructed dynamically during the Terraform
run, which is a very rare need.
This is a HCL feature rather than a Terraform feature really, but we want
to make sure it keeps working consistently in future versions of Terraform
so this is a Terraform-flavored test for the block expansion behavior.
In particular, it tests that a nested dynamic block can access the parent
iterator, so that we won't regress #19543 in future.
This commit is a wide-ranging set of edits to the pages under
/docs/configuration. Among other things, it
- Separates style conventions out into their own page.
- Separates type constraints and conversion info into their own page.
- Conflates similar complex types a little more freely, since the distinction is
only relevant when restricting inputs for a reusable module or resource.
- Clarifies several concepts that confused me during edits.
In prior versions of Terraform we permitted inconsistent use of indexes
in resource references, but in as of 0.12 the index usage must correlate
properly with whether "count" is set on the resource.
Since users are likely to have existing configurations with incorrect
usage, here we introduce some specialized error messages for situations
where we can detect such issues statically. This seems to cover all of the
common patterns we've seen in practice.
Some usage patterns will fall back on a less-helpful dynamic error here,
but no configurations coming from 0.11 can end up that way because 0.11
did not permit forms such as aws_instance.no_count[count.index].bar that
this validation would not be able to "see".
Our configuration upgrade tool also contains a fix for this already, but
it takes a more conservative approach of adding the index [1] rather than
[count.index] because it can't be sure (without human help) if correlation
of indices is what was intended.
This includes a change to accept and ignore a UTF-8 BOM at the start of
any given native syntax configuration.
Although a BOM is redundant in UTF-8, we learned in #18618 that several
software products on Windows will produce a BOM whenever they save as
UTF-8, so accepting it avoids friction when using those tools to author
or generate Terraform configuration files.
This fixes#18618.
The parent commit fixes an issue where this would previously have led to
a crash. These new test cases verify that parsing is now able to complete
without crashing, though the result is still invalid.
Previously we used the native slash type for the host platform, but that
leads to issues if the same configuration is applied on both Windows and
non-Windows systems.
Since Windows supports slashes and backslashes, we can safely return
always slashes here and require that users combine the result with
subsequent path parts using slashes, like:
"${path.module}/foo/bar"
Previously the above would lead to an error on Windows if path.module
contained any backslashes.
This is not really possible to unit test directly right now since we
always run our tests on Unix systems and filepath.ToSlash is a no-op on
Unix. However, this does include some tests for the basic behavior to
verify that it's not regressed as a result of this change.
This will need to be reported in the changelog as a potential breaking
change, since anyone who was using Terraform _exclusively_ on Windows may
have been using expressions like "${path.module}foo\\bar" which they will
now need to update.
This fixes#14986.
Previously we were doing this rather inconsistently: some commands would
do it and others would not. By doing it here we ensure we always apply the
same normalization, regardless of which operation we're running.
This normalization is mostly for cosmetic purposes in error messages, but
it also ends up being used to populate path.module and path.root and so
it's important that we always produce consistent results here so that
we don't produce flappy changes as users work with different commands.
The fact that thus mutates a data structure as a side-effect is not ideal
but this is the best place to ensure it always gets applied without doing
any significant refactoring, since everything after this point happens in
the backend package where the normalizePath method is not available.
We already catch indirect cycles through the normal cycle detector, but
we never create self-edges in the graph so we need to handle a direct
self-reference separately here.
The prior behavior was simply to produce an incorrect result (since the
local value wasn't assigned a new value yet).
This fixes#18503.
