Martin Atkins fe8c380fe1 website: Remove the Sentinel section from 0.12 upgrade guide
A longer-form guide will follow in the Sentinel section of the Terraform
Enterprise documentation, once it's ready. For now, this section isn't
saying anything useful since it was always just a stub for a guide we
planned to write later.

Martin Atkins 32d19b9574 website: 0.12 upgrade guide about variable type constraints
The upgrade tool is assuming that a type of "list" means list(string) and
a type of "map" means map(string), because that was what we documented
those as meaning.

In practice, Terraform 0.11 was lacking some validation which allowed
more complex nested structures in some cases even though they were pretty
inconvenient to use due to other language limitations.

The upgrade tool doesn't have enough context to make a reliable decision
on this, so instead we'll rely on the upgrade guide for this. We don't
need a TF-UPGRADE-TODO comment in this case because we reserve those for
things where a subsequent operation might cause the configuration to be
misinterpred, rather than just causing an error. Instead, we'll show an
example of the comment in the upgrade guide so the reader can easily
match it, and give some advice in the guide on how to address it.

Martin Atkins c6e32f148d website: v0.12 upgrade guide revisions preparing for final release
Our original upgrade guide was drafted while some things were still in
flux and not all of our upgrade tooling was in place yet.

This redraft now attempts to be more specific and direct, showing exact
commands to run and (where relevant) exact error messages that Terraform
might return.

I also took this opportunity for some general copy-editing, though we'll
probably want to do one more pass of that alone (without changing any
content at the same time) before final release.

This new content presumes the existence of a Terraform v0.11.14 release,
which isn't published yet at the time of writing but should be published
before v0.12.0 final, once we've done final verification and review of
the upgrade path including it.

lang/funcs: add acc tests for functions (#21112)
* lang/funcs: testing of functions through the lang package API
The function-specific unit tests do not cover the HCL conversion that happens when the functions are called in a terraform configuration. For e.g., HCL converts sets to lists before passing it to the function. This means that we could not test passing a set in the function _unit_ tests.
This adds a higher-level acceptance test, plus a check that every (pure) function has a test.

website: Update "Local Values" docs to use v0.12 syntax in example
There was some leftover v0.11-style interpolation syntax here.

We prefer to use a "naked" expression in situations like this where the result
isn't a string, because interpolations returning non-strings is a common source
of confusion for new users.

Martin Atkins c94f8f9067 website: Document division behavior change in v0.12 upgrade guide
The division operator now always performs floating point division, whereas
before it would choose between float and int division based on the types
of its arguments.

We have a specific error message for when a fractional number is used as
an index in HCL, but this additional upgrade guidance provides a specific
solution to the problem: the floor function.

Sadly we don't have enough context in the current design of the upgrade
tool to make this fix automatic. With some refactoring it may be possible
to apply the fix automatically within list brackets, but since that is
a relatively complex change we'll first try this manual solution prompted
by an error message, because in practice so far we've seen this reported
only in the context of list indexing and our error check will catch that
and make the user aware of the need for a fix there.

funcs/coalesce: return the first non-null, non-empty-string element from a sequence (#21002)
* funcs/coalesce: return the first non-null, non-empty element from a
sequence.

The go-cty coalesce function, which was originally used here, returns the
first non-null element from a sequence. Terraform 0.11's coalesce,
however, returns the first non-empty string from a list of strings.

This new coalesce function aims to preserve terraform's documented
functionality while adding support for additional argument types. The
tests include those in go-cty and adapted tests from the 0.11 version of
coalesce.

Martin Atkins 99f2623d10 website: Documentation of the special "attributes as blocks" mode
The re-introduction of some of the ambiguity between argument and nested
block syntax (for compatibility with existing provider patterns)
unfortunately leads to some interesting consequences for attributes using
this mode.

While the behavior is generally as before in straightforward cases, this
page aims to spell out some of the different usage patterns explicitly
for the benefit of those writing more complex configurations, such as
generic re-usable modules where using argument vs. block syntax leads to
some real differences.

This page is intentionally not linked from anywhere in the part of the
website maintained in the Terraform repository. Instead, it can be linked
from the provider documentation for any argument where this pattern is
used, to help users understand the ways in which that argument might
deviate from the usual behaviors of arguments vs. nested blocks.

Nick Fagerlund 13166df619 website: move docs/index.html to docs/cli-index.html
Terraform is way bigger than the core CLI tools and the language
now, and the docs have grown accordingly. So we're adding a
global index page to help users get around the many sections of the
docs site, and bumping the CLI/core docs down so they're no longer at the
top of the hierarchy.

The "right" (as in, conceptually pure) way to do this would be to actually
create a new level of directory hierarchy in between. But that would be real
expensive and annoying — the amount of 301s and links to edit would be
monumental, and it wouldn't gain us much beyond a certain picture-straightening
satisfaction, so I'm resisting the temptation.

Nick Fagerlund 34e90ff3c1 website: Fix broken links to modules/usage and modules/create
As part of this, I'm copying the entire text of the 0.12
docs/configuration/modules.html page into docs/configuration-0-11/modules.html —
some of the 0.11 pages needed to be able to link to the moved content, I
didn't want to jump versions jarringly, and a close reading didn't reveal
anything in there that's inaccurate for 0.11.

Martin Atkins 36bb9b462c website: "for" expression examples to use canonical formatting
The "terraform fmt" command produces a different canonical form than we
were showing in our examples here. Our examples should always reflect the
conventions applied by "terraform fmt" to avoid confusion.

(This particular decision is a pragmatic one because the formatter design
needs to use the same rules for the colon in the ? : conditional operator
as for the colon in "for" expressions.)

Martin Atkins 0a9959cbe4 website: References to Resource Attributes
Since references to attributes of resources are by far the most common
reference type, and the mapping of resource type config to the attributes
is not always obvious, here we give some real examples of patterns for
accessing different configuration constructs within resource blocks along
with the resource type's exported attributes.

Since we don't have any real examples of labelled nested blocks yet (the
current SDK doesn't support them) I've included a hypothetical example for
now just to establish the patterns around them in preparation for
beginning to introduce them as we roll out this feature in the SDK.

Martin Atkins 9336c7fba3 website: Revamped module-authoring docs for Terraform v0.12
As well as some general consolidation and reorganizing, this also includes
some updated advice for making the best use of new Terraform v0.12
features to create infrastructure building-blocks.

In particular, the "Module Usage" documentation is now consolidated into
the configuration section in order to bring all of our general language
documentation together, and the top-level "Modules" section is now
primarily focused on module _authors_ as an audience, covering topics such
as publishing modules and designing them for reuse.

Martin Atkins 954d38e870 lang: New file-hashing functions
In prior versions, we recommended using hash functions in conjunction with
the file function as an idiom for detecting changes to upstream blobs
without fetching and comparing the whole blob.

That approach relied on us being able to return raw binary data from
file(...). Since Terraform strings pass through intermediate
representations that are not binary-safe (e.g. the JSON state), there was
a risk of string corruption in prior versions which we have avoided for
0.12 by requiring that file(...) be used only with UTF-8 text files.

The specific case of returning a string and immediately passing it into
another function was not actually subject to that corruption risk, since
the HIL interpreter would just pass the string through verbatim, but this
is still now forbidden as a result of the stricter handling of file(...).

To avoid breaking these use-cases, here we introduce variants of the hash
functions a with "file" prefix that take a filename for a disk file to
hash rather than hashing the given string directly. The configuration
upgrade tool also now includes a rule to detect the documented idiom and
rewrite it into a single function call for one of these new functions.

This does cause a bit of function sprawl, but that seems preferable to
introducing more complex rules for when file(...) can and cannot read
binary files, making the behavior of these various functions easier to
understand in isolation.

Martin Atkins 2f8f7d6f4d lang/funcs: Type conversion functions
It's not normally necessary to make explicit type conversions in Terraform
because the language implicitly converts as necessary, but explicit
conversions are useful in a few specialized cases:

- When defining output values for a reusable module, it may be desirable
  to force a "cleaner" output type than would naturally arise from a
  computation, such as forcing a string containing digits into a number.
- Our 0.12upgrade mechanism will use some of these to replace use of the
  undocumented, hidden type conversion functions in HIL, and force
  particular type interpretations in some tricky cases.
- We've found that type conversion functions can be useful as _temporary_
  workarounds for bugs in Terraform and in providers where implicit type
  conversion isn't working correctly or a type constraint isn't specified
  precisely enough for the automatic conversion behavior.

These all follow the same convention of being named "to" followed by a
short type name. Since we've had a long-standing convention of running all
the words together in lowercase in function names, we stick to that here
even though some of these names are quite strange, because these should
be rarely-used functions anyway.

Martin Atkins da51e72cbb lang/functions: set functions from cty
The sethaselement, setintersection, and setunion functions are defined in
the cty stdlib. Making them available in Terraform will make it easier to
work with sets, and complement the currently-Terraform-specific setproduct
function.

In the long run setproduct should probably move into the cty stdlib too,
but since it was submitted as a Terraform function originally we'll leave
it here now for simplicity's sake and reorganize later.
2019-01-16 09:57:16 -08:00
Martin Atkins edb5f82de1 lang/funcs: Convert the "setproduct" function to the new approach
In our new world it produces either a set of a tuple type or a list of a
tuple type, depending on the given argument types.

The resulting collection's element tuple type is decided by the element
types of the given collections, allowing type information to propagate
even if unknown values are present.

The terraform-aws-provider `config.Client()` sets `MaxRetries` to 0 unless explicitly configured above 0. Previously, we were not overriding this behavior by setting the configuration and therefore not invoking the default request retryer.

The default retryer already handles HTTP error codes above 500, including S3's InternalError response, so the extraneous handling can be removed. This will also start automatically retrying many additional cases, such as temporary networking issues or other retryable AWS service responses.

Changes:
* s3/backend: Add `max_retries` argument
* s3/backend: Enhance S3 NoSuchBucket error to include additional information

Martin Atkins d0e6a4c69a lang: Add "formatdate" function

stdlib functions.

This will resolve #17625 by allowing conversion from Terraform's
conventional RFC 3339 timestamps into various other formats.

Martin Atkins c753df6a93 lang/funcs: templatefile function
This function is similar to the template_file data source offered by the
template provider, but having it built in to the language makes it more
convenient to use, allowing templates to be rendered from files anywhere
an inline template would normally be allowed:

    user_data = templatefile("${path.module}/userdata.tmpl", {
      hostname = format("petserver%02d", count.index)
    })

Unlike the template_file data source, this function allows values of any
type in its variables map, passing them through verbatim to the template.
Its tighter integration with Terraform also allows it to return better
error messages with source location information from the template itself.

The template_file data source was originally created to work around the
fact that HIL didn't have any support for map values at the time, and
even once map support was added it wasn't very usable. With HCL2
expressions, there's little reason left to use a data source to render
a template; the only remaining reason left to use template_file is to
render a template that is constructed dynamically during the Terraform
run, which is a very rare need.

- Separates style conventions out into their own page.
- Separates type constraints and conversion info into their own page.
- Conflates similar complex types a little more freely, since the distinction is
  only relevant when restricting inputs for a reusable module or resource.
- Clarifies several concepts that confused me during edits.

website: Fix plugin path on Windows (#19423)
...and one other reference to the application data directory.

Context:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/shell/knownfolderid#folderid_roamingappdata

In newer Windows versions, the folder accessible as `%APPDATA%` (and via various
APIs) is actually at something like "documents and settings\user\application
data\roaming", while earlier versions omit the "\roaming" part of the path. This
means you can confuse people by referring to the "application data" directory by
its human name, because "roaming" is the real application data directory, but it
looks like a subdirectory of "application data".

Thus, it's less confusing to just use the `%APPDATA%` variable, with the added
benefit that you can copy and paste the path and it'll just work in most places.

Martin Atkins 48d940323e website: Beginnings of "Functions" configuration section
Previously we just listed out all of the functions in alphabetical order
inside the "Interpolation Syntax" page, but that format doesn't leave much
room for details and usage examples.

Now we give each function its own page, and categorize them for easier
navigation. While many functions are very simple and don't really warrant
a full page, certain functions do have additional details that are worth
mentioning and this structure scales better for those more complicated
functions.

So far this includes only the numeric and string functions. Other
categories will follow in subsequent commits.

Martin Atkins 39579e8d0f website: revisions to the "Configuration Syntax" page and expressions
This rewrite of the "Configuration Syntax" page now gives some more detail
on the top-level structural constructs and de-emphasizes the name "HCL"
as subordinate to "the Terraform language".

It also now includes some commentary on valid identifiers and comments,
and issues around character encodings and line endings.

In addition, we now have a new "Expressions" page that replaces the old
"Interpolation Syntax" page, covering the expression language features
we inherit from HCL and how they behave in the context of Terraform.

The "Expressions" page currently links to a page about the built-in
functions which does not yet exist. This will be created in a later
commit.

Martin Atkins e1754970a8 website: Revise the "Data Sources" configuration docs section
This adopts a more guide-like writing style, similar to what prior commits
have done to some other subsections of this section.

The data sources page has not got any real attention since the feature
was first added, and our vocabulary for describing them and their
lifecycle hadn't quite settled when the page was originally written. This
new version is consistent in how it uses "data source" to describe the
feature that providers offer and "data resource" to describe what is
created by a "data" block in configuration, which then allows us to
draw on the many shared features between both data and managed resources.

For the moment this waits until "data resource" is defined in order to
first introduce the qualifier "managed resource". We may wish to revise
this again to mention that more specific nomenclature in passing on the
"Resources" page, in case a user encounters it elsewhere and wants to
learn what it means without needing to be familiar with data resources
first.
2018-10-16 18:47:33 -07:00
Martin Atkins eeb96b1e12 website: Revise the "Modules" configuration docs section
This adopts a more guide-like writing style, similar to what prior commits

Since we already have a whole top-level section devoted to modules, there
is no need for full coverage of all of their features here. Instead, this
section focuses on an an initial introduction to what modules are and
the basics of their usage within the Terraform language. We then link
to the main modules section for the full details.

introduced in the prior commit for the "Resources" docs page.
2018-10-16 18:47:33 -07:00
Martin Atkins 6fa6a0d110 website: revise the "Resources" configuration docs section
This is now the leading subsection of the Configuration section of the
docs, and so this rewrite intends to make it more "guide-like" and as
accessible as possible to those who are not yet familiar with other
Terraform concepts.

This rewrite also attempts to introduce some consistency into our
vocabulary, which should eventually be reflected throughout our
documentation. In particular:

- "Resource" refers to the block the user writes in configuration, while
  "Resource _Type_" refers to what the provider defines. We previously
  used "resource" for both of these interchangeably.

- "Resource" is no longer used to refer to what gets created and managed
  in remote APIs as a result of a resource block in configuration. Lacking
  a good distinct name for these, this guide uses the word "object",
  qualifying it as "infrastructure object" or "remote object" where
  necessary to retain clarity. This distinction is important to enable
  a clear description of resource lifecycle.

- "Argument" refers to an element (attribute or block) within a resource
  block. This terminology was already being used in some places, so we
  embrace it here as a way to distinguish from "attribute", which is
  what a resource _exports_ for use in expressions.

- Since interpolation is no longer needed to use expressions in the
  language, the word "expression" is used to describe the definition of
  a value that might involve some computation. Where necessary, this is
  used with a modifier "arbitrary expression" to contrast with situations
  where the set of allowed expression constructs is constrained.

Martin Atkins 27429b61a9 website: Flesh out the intro to the "Configuration" section.
The prior content on this page was little more than an instruction to
begin navigating the sub-sections of this section.

The new content aims to give a broad overview of some of the language
concepts and a syntax example, in order to create some context to help
the user navigate the subsections more easily.

This also introduces for the first time usage of the term "the Terraform
language". This was previously left un-named, leading to some awkward
sentence constructions elsewhere in the docs. This new name gives us
some specific terminology to use in order to contrast the language that
exists at Terraform's level of abstraction, defining the semantics, from
the underlying grammar provided by HCL.

Martin Atkins e5e3452ffa website: Reorganize the "Configuration" docs section

Here we reorganize the navigation slightly in order to introduce the
concepts in a more appropriate order so that we can reveal complexity
more gradually. Subsequent commits will revise the content of these
pages to better reflect the new sequencing.

The "Environment Variables" page is moved from the Configuration section
into the "Commands" section, since it is not considered a part of the
configuration language and thus more appropriate in the CLI documentation.
The old placement is reflective of the broader purpose that the
"Configuration" section had originally, but its new focus will be on
the Terraform language (.tf files) in particular, with other aspects of
customizing Terraforms behavior covered in other sections.

website: Reconcile docs about plugin discovery and downloading

I'm attempting to keep things simple for normal users while making sure we've
got the full behavior written down somewhere for plugin developers.

This commit doesn't stand alone; it's paired with a commit in the
terraform-website repo, to deal with some related content in the "extend"
section.

Martin Atkins 15ad2e4f9e website: Revise the "Module Sources" page
It's been a while since we made any significant updates to this page.
The main theme of this revamp is to ensure that we highlight how to
provide "ambient credentials" for each of the module sources using the
standard mechanisms for each source type.

While there, I also attempted a general cleanup to highlight the main
cases and make this less like a detailed description of all of
go-getter's esoteric features, and did some general copy-editing to write
it in our usual documentation "voice".

Martin Atkins d4ac68423c website: Tweak the language we use to describe remote state
After some discussion with "iamakulov" on Twitter it seems that the use
of the word "conflicts" and "merge conflicts" here was sounding like us
implicitly condoning the use of version control as a mechanism for
distributing local state files, which hasn't been recommended for quite
some time since remote state now provides a much more robust solution.

While here, I also tweaked some other language on this page for style and
for use of terminology we more commonly use in our more recent
documentation.
