We've been using the models from the "moduledeps" package to represent our provider dependencies everywhere since the idea of provider dependencies was introduced in Terraform 0.10, but that model is not convenient to use for any use-case other than the "terraform providers" command that needs individual-module-level detail. To make things easier for new codepaths working with the new-style provider installer, here we introduce a new model type getproviders.Requirements which is based on the type the new installer was already taking as its input. We have new methods in the states, configs, and earlyconfig packages to produce values of this type, and a helper to merge Requirements together so we can combine config-derived and state-derived requirements together during installation. The advantage of this new model over the moduledeps one is that all of recursive module walking is done up front and we produce a simple, flat structure that is more convenient for the main use-cases of selecting providers for installation and then finding providers in the local cache to use them for other operations. This new model is _not_ suitable for implementing "terraform providers" because it does not retain module-specific requirement details. Therefore we will likely keep using moduledeps for "terraform providers" for now, and then possibly at a later time consider specializing the moduledeps logic for only what "terraform providers" needs, because it seems to be the only use-case that needs to retain that level of detail. |

Terraform
- Website: https://www.terraform.io
- Forums: HashiCorp Discuss
Terraform is a tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure safely and efficiently. Terraform can manage existing and popular service providers as well as custom in-house solutions.
The key features of Terraform are:
-
Infrastructure as Code: Infrastructure is described using a high-level configuration syntax. This allows a blueprint of your datacenter to be versioned and treated as you would any other code. Additionally, infrastructure can be shared and re-used.
-
Execution Plans: Terraform has a "planning" step where it generates an execution plan. The execution plan shows what Terraform will do when you call apply. This lets you avoid any surprises when Terraform manipulates infrastructure.
-
Resource Graph: Terraform builds a graph of all your resources, and parallelizes the creation and modification of any non-dependent resources. Because of this, Terraform builds infrastructure as efficiently as possible, and operators get insight into dependencies in their infrastructure.
-
Change Automation: Complex changesets can be applied to your infrastructure with minimal human interaction. With the previously mentioned execution plan and resource graph, you know exactly what Terraform will change and in what order, avoiding many possible human errors.
For more information, see the introduction section of the Terraform website.
Getting Started & Documentation
If you're new to Terraform and want to get started creating infrastructure, please checkout our Getting Started guide, available on the Terraform website.
All documentation is available on the Terraform website:
Developing Terraform
This repository contains only Terraform core, which includes the command line interface and the main graph engine. Providers are implemented as plugins that each have their own repository in the terraform-providers organization on GitHub. Instructions for developing each provider are in the associated README file. For more information, see the provider development overview.
To learn more about compiling Terraform and contributing suggested changes, please refer to the contributing guide.
