Calling the nonsensitive function with values which are not sensitive
will result in an error. This restriction was added with the goal of
preventing confusingly redundant use of this function.
Unfortunately, this breaks when using nonsensitive to reveal the value of
sensitive resource attributes. This is because the validate walk does
not (and cannot) mark attributes as sensitive based on the schema,
because the resource value itself is unknown.
This commit therefore alters this restriction such that it permits
nonsensitive unknown values, and adds a test case to cover this specific
scenario.
When returning generic grpc errors from a provider, use
WholeContainingBody so that callers can annotate the error with all the
available contextual information. This can help troubleshoot problems by
narrowing down problems to a particular configuration or specific
resource instance.
Add an address argument to tfdiags.InConfigBody, and store the address
string the diagnostics details. Since nearly every place where we want
to annotate the diagnostics with the config context we also have some
sort of address, we can use the same call to insert them both into the
diagnostic.
Perhaps we should rename InConfigBody and ElaborateFromConfigBody to
reflect the additional address parameter, but for now we can verify this
is a pattern that suits us.
* Optimize (m ModuleInstance) String()
Optimize (m ModuleInstance) String() to preallocate the buffer and use strings.Builder instead of bytes.Buffer
This leads to a common case only doing a single allocation as opposed to a few allocations which the bytes.Buffer is doing.

Dependencies are tracked via configuration addresses, but when dealing
with depends_on references they can only apply to resources within the
same module instance. When determining if a data source can be read
during planning, verify that the dependency change is coming from the
same module instance.
When rendering the JSON plan sensitivity output, if the plan contained
unknown collection or structural types, Terraform would crash. We need
to detect unknown values before attempting to iterate them.
Unknown collection or structural values cannot have sensitive contents
accidentally displayed, as those values are not known until after apply.
As a result we return an empty value of the appropriate type for the
sensitivity mapping.
When applying sensitivity marks to resources, we previously would first
mark any provider-denoted sensitive attributes, then apply the set of
planned-change sensitive value marks. This would cause a panic if a
provider marked an iterable value as sensitive, because it is invalid to
call `MarkWithPaths` against a marked iterable value.
Instead, we now merge the marks from the provider schema and the planned
change into a single set, and apply them with one call. The included
test panics without this change.
We previously added a hint to both resource for_each and dynamic blocks
about using the "flatten" and "setproduct" situations to construct
suitable collections to repeat over.
However, we used the same text in both places which ended up stating that
dynamic blocks can only accept map or set values, which is a constraint
that applies to resource for_each (because we need to assign a unique
identifier to each instance) and not to dynamic blocks (which don't have
any uniqueness enforced by Terraform Core itself).
To remove that contradiction with the text above which talks about what
is valid here, I've just generalized this to say "collection", because
the primary point of this paragraph is the "one element per desired nested
block" part, not specifically what sort of collections are permitted in
this location. (Text further up describes the supported types.)
If the provider locks have not changed, there is no need to rewrite the
locks file. Preventing this needless rewrite should allow Terraform to
operate in a read-only directory, so long as the provider requirements
don't change.
The resource configuration was always being used to determine
dependencies during refresh, because if there were no changes to a
resource, there was no chance to replace any incorrect stored
dependencies. Now that we are refreshing during plan, we can determine
that a resource has no changes and opt to store the new dependencies
immediately.
Here we clean up the writeResourceInstanceState calls to no longer
modify the resource instance state, removing the `dependencies`
argument. Callers are now expected to set the Dependencies field as
needed.
When an output value changes, we have a small amount of information we
can convey about its sensitivity. If either the output was previously
marked sensitive, or is currently marked sensitive in the config, this
is tracked in the output change data.
This commit encodes this boolean in the change struct's
`before_sensitive` and `after_sensitive` fields, in the a way which
matches resource value sensitivity. Since we have so little information
to work with, these two values will always be booleans, and always equal
each.
This is logically consistent with how else we want to obscure sensitive
data: a changing output which was or is marked sensitive should not have
the value shown in human-readable output.
Similar to `after_unknown`, `before_sensitive` and `after_sensitive` are
values with similar structure to `before` and `after` which encode the
presence of sensitive values in a planned change. These should be used
to obscure sensitive values from human-readable output.
These values follow the same structure as the `before` and `after`
values, replacing sensitive values with `true`, and non-sensitive values
with `false`. Following the `after_unknown` precedent, we omit
non-sensitive `false` values for object attributes/map values, to make
serialization more compact.
One difference from `after_unknown` is that a sensitive complex value
(collection or structural type) is replaced with `true`. If the complex
value itself is sensitive, all of its contents should be obscured.
We have these funny extra options that date back to before Terraform even
had remote state, which we've preserved along the way by most recently
incorporating them as special-case overrides for the local backend.
The documentation we had for these has grown less accurate over time as
the details have shifted, and was in many cases missing the requisite
caveats that they are only for the local backend and that backend
configuration is the modern, preferred way to deal with the use-cases they
were intended for.
We always have a bit of a tension with this sort of legacy option because
we want to keep them documented just enough to be useful to someone who
finds an existing script/etc using them and wants to know what they do,
but not to take up so much space that they might distract users from
finding the modern alternative they should consider instead.
As a compromise in that vein here I've created a new section about these
options under the local backend documentation, which then gives us the
space to go into some detail about the various behaviors and interactions
and also to discuss their history and our recommended alternatives. I then
simplified all of the other mentions of these in command documentation
to just link to or refer to the local backend documentation. My hope then
is that folks who need to know what these do can still find the docs, but
that information can be kept out of the direct path of new users so they
can focus on learning about remote backends instead.
This is certainly not the most ideal thing ever, but it seemed like the
best compromise between the competing priorities I described above.
The formatter for value expressions which use legacy interpolation
syntax was previously behaving incorrectly with some multi-line
expressions. Any HCL expression which requires parenthesis to be allowed
to span multiple lines could be skip those parens if already inside
string interpolation (`"${}"`).
When removing string interpolation, we now check for a resulting
multi-line expression, and conservatively ensure that it starts and ends
with parenthesis. These may be redundant, as not all expressions require
parens to permit spanning multiple lines, but at least it will be valid
output.
The stored planfile now serializes the required-replace path set and the
collection of before/after sensitivity marks. This ensures that storing
a plan and displaying it with `terraform show` renders the same output
for plans with required-replace resources, and those with sensitive
values in the diff.
