terraform/CHANGELOG.md

0.3.0 (unreleased)

FEATURES:

• Modules: Configuration can now be modularized. Modules can live on GitHub, BitBucket, Git/Hg repos, HTTP URLs, and file paths. Terraform automatically downloads/updates modules for you on request.
• New Command: init. This command initializes a Terraform configuration from an existing Terraform module (also new in 0.3).
• New Command: destroy. This command destroys infrastructure created with apply.
• Terraform will ask for user input to fill in required variables and provider configurations if they aren't set.
• terraform apply MODULE can be used as a shorthand to quickly build infrastructure from a module.
• The state file format is now JSON rather than binary. This allows for easier machine and human read/write. Old binary state files will be automatically upgraded.
• You can now specify create_before_destroy as an option for replacement so that new resources are created before the old ones are destroyed.
• The count metaparameter can now contain interpolations (such as variables).
• The current index for a resource with a count set can be interpolated using ${count.index}.
• Various paths can be interpolated with the path.X variables. For example, the path to the current module can be interpolated using ${path.module}.

0.2.0 (August 28, 2014)

BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITIES:

• We've replaced the configuration language in use from a C library to a pure-Go reimplementation. In the process, we removed some features of the language since it was too flexible:
  • Semicolons are no longer valid at the end of lines
  • Keys cannot be double-quoted strings: "foo" = "bar" is no longer valid.
  • JSON style maps { "foo": "bar" } are no longer valid outside of JSON. Maps must be in the format of { foo = "bar" } (like other objects in the config)
• Heroku apps now require (will not validate without) region and name due to an upstream API change. [GH-239]

FEATURES:

• New Provider: google: Manage Google Compute instances, disks, firewalls, and more.
• New Provider: mailgun: Manage mailgun domains.
• New Function: concat: Concatenate multiple strings together. Example: concat(var.region, "-", var.channel).

• providers/aws: EIPs now expose allocation_id and public_ip attributes.
• providers/aws: Security group rules can be updated without a destroy/create.
