The previous name didn't fit with the naming scheme for addrs types:
The "Abs" prefix typically means that it's an addrs.ModuleInstance
combined with whatever type name appears after "Abs", but this is instead
a ModuleCallOutput combined with an InstanceKey, albeit structured the
other way around for convenience, and so the expected name for this would
be the suffix "Instance".
We don't have an "Abs" type corresponding with this one because it would
represent no additional information than AbsOutputValue.
* terraform: use hcl.MergeBodies instead of configs.MergeBodies for provider configuration
Previously, Terraform would return an error if the user supplied provider configuration via interactive input iff the configuration provided on the command line was missing any required attributes - even if those attributes were already set in config.
That error came from configs.MergeBody, which was designed for overriding valid configuration. It expects that the first ("base") body has all required attributes. However in the case of interactive input for provider configuration, it is perfectly valid if either or both bodies are missing required attributes, as long as the final body has all required attributes. hcl.MergeBodies works very similarly to configs.MergeBodies, with a key difference being that it only checks that all required attributes are present after the two bodies are merged.
I've updated the existing test to use interactive input vars and a schema with all required attributes. This test failed before switching from configs.MergeBodies to hcl.MergeBodies.
* add a command package test that shows that we can still have providers with dynamic configuration + required + interactive input merging
This test failed when buildProviderConfig still used configs.MergeBodies instead of hcl.MergeBodies
As the comment notes, this hostname is the default for provide source
addresses. We'll shortly be adding some address types to represent module
source addresses too, and so we'll also have DefaultModuleRegistryHost
for that situation.
(They'll actually both contain the the same hostname, but that's a
coincidence rather than a requirement.)
Most legacy provider resources do not implement any import functionality
other than returning an empty object with the given ID, relying on core
to later read that resource and obtain the complete state. Because of
this, we need to check the response from ReadResource for a null value,
and use that as an indication the import id was invalid.
Do not convert provisioner diagnostics to errors so that users can get
context from provisioner failures.
Return diagnostics from the builtin provisioners that can be annotated
with configuration context and instance addresses.
This is part of a general effort to move all of Terraform's non-library
package surface under internal in order to reinforce that these are for
internal use within Terraform only.
If you were previously importing packages under this prefix into an
external codebase, you could pin to an earlier release tag as an interim
solution until you've make a plan to achieve the same functionality some
other way.
