In historical versions of Terraform the responsibility to check this was
inside the terraform.NewContext function, along with various other
assorted concerns that made that function particularly complicated.
More recently, we reduced the responsibility of the "terraform" package
only to instantiating particular named plugins, assuming that its caller
is responsible for selecting appropriate versions of any providers that
_are_ external. However, until this commit we were just assuming that
"terraform init" had correctly selected appropriate plugins and recorded
them in the lock file, and so nothing was dealing with the problem of
ensuring that there haven't been any changes to the lock file or config
since the most recent "terraform init" which would cause us to need to
re-evaluate those decisions.
Part of the game here is to slightly extend the role of the dependency
locks object to also carry information about a subset of provider
addresses whose lock entries we're intentionally disregarding as part of
the various little edge-case features we have for overridding providers:
dev_overrides, "unmanaged providers", and the testing overrides in our
own unit tests. This is an in-memory-only annotation, never included in
the serialized plan files on disk.
I had originally intended to create a new package to encapsulate all of
this plugin-selection logic, including both the version constraint
checking here and also the handling of the provider factory functions, but
as an interim step I've just made version constraint consistency checks
the responsibility of the backend/local package, which means that we'll
always catch problems as part of preparing for local operations, while
not imposing these additional checks on commands that _don't_ run local
operations, such as "terraform apply" when in remote operations mode.
We recently removed the legacy way we used to track the SHA256 hashes of
individual provider executables as part of a plans.Plan, because these
days we want to track the checksums of entire provider packages rather
than just the executable.
In order to achieve that new goal, we can save a copy of the dependency
lock information inside the plan file. This follows our existing precedent
of using exactly the same serialization formats we'd normally use for
this information, and thus we can reuse the existing models and
serializers and be confident we won't lose any detail in the round-trip.
As of this commit there's not yet anything actually making use of this
mechanism. In a subsequent commit we'll teach the main callers that write
and read plan files to include and expect (respectively) dependency
information, verifying that the available providers still match by the
time we're applying the plan.
Previously the planfile.Create function had accumulated probably already
too many positional arguments, and I'm intending to add another one in
a subsequent commit and so this is preparation to make the callsites more
readable (subjectively) and make it clearer how we can extend this
function's arguments to include further components in a plan file.
There's no difference in observable functionality here. This is just
passing the same set of arguments in a slightly different way.
Historically the responsibility for making sure that all of the available
providers are of suitable versions and match the appropriate checksums has
been split rather inexplicably over multiple different layers, with some
of the checks happening as late as creating a terraform.Context.
We're gradually iterating towards making that all be handled in one place,
but in this step we're just cleaning up some old remnants from the
main "terraform" package, which is now no longer responsible for any
version or checksum verification and instead just assumes it's been
provided with suitable factory functions by its caller.
We do still have a pre-check here to make sure that we at least have a
factory function for each plugin the configuration seems to depend on,
because if we don't do that up front then it ends up getting caught
instead deep inside the Terraform runtime, often inside a concurrent
graph walk and thus it's not deterministic which codepath will happen to
catch it on a particular run.
As of this commit, this actually does leave some holes in our checks: the
command package is using the dependency lock file to make sure we have
exactly the provider packages we expect (exact versions and checksums),
which is the most crucial part, but we don't yet have any spot where
we make sure that the lock file is consistent with the current
configuration, and we are no longer preserving the provider checksums as
part of a saved plan.
Both of those will come in subsequent commits. While it's unusual to have
a series of commits that briefly subtracts functionality and then adds
back in equivalent functionality later, the lock file checking is the only
part that's crucial for security reasons, with everything else mainly just
being to give better feedback when folks seem to be using Terraform
incorrectly. The other bits are therefore mostly cosmetic and okay to be
absent briefly as we work towards a better design that is clearer about
where that responsibility belongs.
We must ensure that the terraform required_version is checked as early
as possible, so that new configuration constructs don't cause init to
fail without indicating the version is incompatible.
The loadConfig call before the earlyconfig parsing seems to be unneeded,
and we can delay that to de-tangle it from installing the modules which
may have their own constraints.
TODO: it seems that loadConfig should be able to handle returning the
version constraints in the same manner as loadSingleModule.
Our current implementation of destroy planning includes secretly running a
normal plan first, in order to get its effect of refreshing the state.
Previously our warning about colliding moves would betray that
implementation detail because we'd return it from both of our planning
operations here and thus show the message twice. That would also have
happened in theory for any other warnings emitted by both plan operations,
but it's the move collision warning that made it immediately visible.
We'll now only return warnings from the initial plan if we're also
returning errors from that plan, and thus the warnings of both plans can
never mix together into the same diags and thus we'll avoid duplicating
any warnings.
This does mean that we'd lose any warnings which might hypothetically
emerge only from the hidden normal plan and not from the subsequent
destroy plan, but we'll accept that as an okay tradeoff here because those
warnings are likely to not be super relevant to the destroy case anyway,
or else we'd emit them from the destroy-plan walk too.
The extra feedback information for why resource instance deletion is
planned is now included in the streaming JSON UI output.
We also add an explicit case for no-op actions to switch statements in
this package to ensure exhaustiveness, for future linting.
The previous conservative guarantee that we would not make backwards
incompatible changes to the state file format until at least Terraform
1.1 can now be extended. Terraform 0.14 through 1.1 will be able to
interoperably use state files, so we can update the remote backend
version compatibility check accordingly.
Because our validation rules depend on some dynamic results produced by
actually running the plan, we deal with moves in a "backwards" order where
we try to apply them first -- ignoring anything strange we might find --
and then validate the original statements only after planning.
An unfortunate consequence of that approach is that when the move
statements are invalid it's likely that move execution will not fully
complete, and so the generated plan is likely to be incorrect and might
well include errors resulting from the unresolved moves.
To mitigate that, here we let any move validation errors supersede all
other diagnostics that the plan phase might've generated, in the hope that
it'll help the user focus on fixing the incorrect move statements without
creating confusing by reporting errors that only appeared as a quick of
how Terraform worked around the invalid move statements earlier.
In most cases Terraform will be able to automatically fully resolve all
of the pending move statements before creating a plan, but there are some
edge cases where we can end up wanting to move one object to a location
where another object is already declared.
One relatively-obvious example is if someone uses "terraform state mv" in
order to create a set of resource instance bindings that could never have
arising in normal Terraform use.
A less obvious example arises from the interactions between moves at
different levels of granularity. If we are both moving a module to a new
address and moving a resource into an instance of the new module at the
same time, the old module might well have already had a resource of the
same name and so the resource move will be unresolvable.
In these situations Terraform will move the objects as far as possible,
but because it's never valid for a move "from" address to still be
declared in the configuration Terraform will inevitably always plan to
destroy the objects that didn't find a final home. To give some additional
explanation for that result, here we'll add a warning which describes
what happened.
This is not a particularly actionable warning because we don't really
have enough information to guess what the user intended, but we do at
least prompt that they might be able to use the "terraform state" family
of subcommands to repair the ambiguous situation before planning, if they
want a different result than what Terraform proposed.
The core runtime is now able to specify a reason for some situations when
Terraform plans to delete a resource instance.
This commit makes that information visible in the human-oriented UI. A
previous commit already made the underlying data informing these new hints
visible as part of the machine-oriented (JSON) plan output.
This also removes the bold formatting from the existing "has moved to"
hints, because subjectively it seemed like the result was emphasizing too
many parts of the output and thus somewhat defeating the benefit of the
emphasis in trying to create additional visual hierarchy for sighted users
running Terraform in a terminal. Now only the first line containing the
main action statement will be in bold, and all of the parenthesized
follow-up notes will be unformatted.
There are a few different reasons why a resource instance tracked in the
prior state might be considered an "orphan", but previously we reported
them all identically in the planned changes.
In order to help users understand the reason for a surprising planned
delete, we'll now try to specify an additional reason for the planned
deletion, covering all of the main reasons why that could happen.
This commit only introduces the new detail to the plans.Changes result,
though it also incidentally exposes it as part of the JSON plan result
in order to keep that working without returning errors in these new
cases. We'll expose this information in the human-oriented UI output in
a subsequent commit.
Our previous rule for implicitly moving from IntKey(0) to NoKey would
apply that move even when the current resource configuration uses
for_each, because we were only considering whether "count" were set.
Previously this was relatively harmless because the resource instance in
question would end up planned for deletion anyway: neither an IntKey nor
a NoKey are valid keys for for_each.
Now that we're going to be announcing these moves explicitly in the UI,
it would be confusing to see Terraform report that IntKey moved to NoKey
in a situation where the config changed from count to for_each, so to
address that we'll only generate the implied statement if neither
repetition argument is set.
When planning in refresh-only mode, we must not remove orphaned
resources due to changed count or for_each values from the planned
state. This was previously happening because we failed to pass through
the plan's skip-plan-changes flag to the instance orphan node.
When initializing a backend, if the currently selected workspace does
not exist, the user is prompted to select from the list of workspaces
the backend provides.
Instead, we should automatically select the only workspace available
_if_ that's all that's there.
Although with being a nice bit of polish, this enables future
improvments with Terraform Cloud in potentially removing the implicit
depenency on always using the 'default' workspace when the current
configuration is mapped to a single TFC workspace.
We can also rule out some attribute types as indicating something other
than the legacy SDK.
- Tuple types were not generated at all.
- There were no single objects types, the convention was to use a block
list or set of length 1.
- Maps of objects were not possible to generate, since named blocks were
not implemented.
- Nested collections were not supported, but when they were generated they
would have primitive types.
If structural types are being used, we can be assured that the legacy
SDK SchemaConfigModeAttr is not being used, and the fixup is not needed.
This prevents inadvertent mapping of blocks to structural attributes,
and allows us to skip the fixup overhead when possible.
When we originally stubbed ApplyMoves we didn't know yet how exactly we'd
be using the result, so we made it a double-indexed map allowing looking
up moves in both directions.
However, in practice we only actually need to look up old addresses by new
addresses, and so this commit first removes the double indexing so that
each move is only represented by one element in the map.
We also need to describe situations where a move was blocked, because in
a future commit we'll generate some warnings in those cases. Therefore
ApplyMoves now returns a MoveResults object which contains both a map of
changes and a map of blocks. The map of blocks isn't used yet as of this
commit, but we'll use it in a later commit to produce warnings within
the "terraform" package.
The whole point of UniqueKey is to deal with the fact that we have some
distinct address types which have an identical string representation, but
unfortunately that fact caused us to not notice that we'd incorrectly
made AbsResource.UniqueKey return a no-key instance UniqueKey instead of
its own distinct unique key type.
Remove answers from testInputResponse as they are given, and raise an
error during cleanup if any answers remain unused.
This enables tests to ensure that the expected mock answers are actually
used in a test; previously, an entire branch of code including an input
sequence could be omitted and the test(s) would not fail.
The only test that had unused answers in this map is one leftover from
legacy state migrations, a prompt that was removed in

Add previous address information to the `planned_change` and
`resource_drift` messages for the streaming JSON UI output of plan and
apply operations.
Here we also add a "move" action value to the `change` object of these
messages, to represent a move-only operation.
As part of this work we also simplify this code to use the plan's
DriftedResources values instead of recomputing the drift from state.
Configuration-driven moves are represented in the plan file by setting
the resource's `PrevRunAddr` to a different value than its `Addr`. For
JSON plan output, we here add a new field to resource changes,
`previous_address`, which is present and non-empty only if the resource
is planned to be moved.
Like the CLI UI, refresh-only plans will include move-only changes in
the resource drift JSON output. In normal plan mode, these are elided to
avoid redundancy with planned changes.
