To avoid breaking automation where plugin-path was assumed to be set
permanently, only remove the plugin-path record if it was explicitly set
to and empty string.
The existing prompts were worded as if backend configurations were
named, but they can only really be referenced by their type. Change the
wording to reference them as type "X backend". When migrating state,
refer to the backends as the "previously configured" and "newly
configured", since they will often have the same type.
Rather than relying on interrupting Diff, just make sure Stop was called
on the provider. The DiffFn is protected by a mutex in the mock
provider, which means that the tests can't rely on concurent calls to
diff working.
There's no point in trying to track these, they're lost after each test.
Kill them after a short delay so we don't have goroutines from every single
command test to wade through if we have a stack dump.
Only check for input twice in the meta.confirm method. This prevents an
errant newline from aborting the run while allowing Terraform to exit if
there is no input available. We don't just check for a tty, since we
still rely on being able to pipe input in for testing.
Remove the redundant confirmation loops in the migration code, and only
use the confirm method.
Make sure the init inputFalse test actually errors from missing input,
since skipping input will still fail later during provider
initialization. We need to make sure there are two different states that
aren't a noop for migration, and reset the command struct for each run.
Also verify that we don't go into an infinite loop if there is no input.
The duplicate prompts can be confusing when the user confirms that a
migration should happen and we immediately prompt a second time for the
same thing with slightly different wording. The extra hand-holding that
this provides for legacy remote states is less critical now, since it's
been 2 major release cycles since those were removed.
The init command needs to parse the state to resolve providers, but
changes to the state format can cause that to fail with difficult to
understand errors. Check the terraform version during init and provide
the same error that would be returned by plan or apply.
If users run "terraform import" in a directory with no Terraform
configuration files, it's likely that they've made a mistake either by
being in the wrong directory or forgetting to use the -config option
on the command line.
To help users find their mistake in this case, we'll now produce a
specialized error message for this situation:
Error: No Terraform configuration files
The directory /home/user/example does not contain any Terraform
configuration files (.tf or .tf.json). To specify a different
configuration directory, use the -config="..." command line option.
While here, this also converts some of the other existing messages to
diagnostics so that we can show any configuration warnings along with
the error message, and move towards the new standard error presentation.
Previously we required callers to separately call .Validate on the root
module to determine if there were any value errors, but we did that
inconsistently and would thus see crashes in some cases where later code
would try to use invalid configuration as if it were valid.
Now we run .Validate automatically after config loading, returning the
resulting diagnostics. Since we return a diagnostics here, it's possible
to return both warnings and errors.
We return the loaded module even if it's invalid, so callers are free to
ignore returned errors and try to work with the config anyway, though they
will need to be defensive against invalid configuration themselves in
that case.
As a result of this, all of the commands that load configuration now need
to use diagnostic printing to signal errors. For the moment this just
allows us to return potentially-multiple config errors/warnings in full
fidelity, but also sets us up for later when more subsystems are able
to produce rich diagnostics so we can show them all together.
Finally, this commit also removes some stale, commented-out code for the
"legacy" (pre-0.8) graph implementation, which has not been available
for some time.
Now that the local backend can be cancelled during plan and refresh, we
don't really need the testShutdownHook. Simplify the tests by just
checking for Stop being called on the provider.
Add a shutdown hook to verify that a context has been correctly
cancelled, so we can remove the sleep and stop guessing.
Add a plan version of the shutdown test as well.
There was no cancellation context for a plan, so it would always have to
run to completion as SIGINT was being swallowed.
Move the shutdown channel to the command Meta since it's used in
multiple commands.
Validation is the best time to return detailed diagnostics
to the user since we're much more likely to have source
location information, etc than we are in later operations.
This change doesn't actually add any detail to the messages
yet, but it changes the interface so that we can gradually
introduce more detailed diagnostics over time.
While here there are some minor adjustments to some of the
messages to improve their consistency with terminology we
use elsewhere.
As part of the 0.10 core/provider split we moved this provider, along with
all the others, out into its own repository.
In retrospect, the "terraform" provider doesn't really make sense to be
separated since it's just a thin wrapper around some core code anyway,
and so re-integrating it into core avoids the confusion that results when
Terraform Core and the terraform provider have inconsistent versions of
the backend code and dependencies.
There is no good reason to use a different version of the backend code
in the provider than in core, so this new "internal provider" mechanism
is stricter than the old one: it's not possible to use an external build
of this provider at all, and version constraints for it are rejected as
a result.
This provider is also run in-process rather than in a child process, since
again it's just a very thin wrapper around code that's already running
in Terraform core anyway, and so the process barrier between the two does
not create enough advantage to warrant the additional complexity.
Change "Downloading" to 'Initializing" to match the provider loading
dialog.
List each module being loaded.
If a regisry module is being downloaded, list the registry host, and the
version discovered.
Show the source string from the config that is being fetched, rather
than the go-getter url. The full source can be found in the logs for
debugging.
Add much more extensive logging
This allows the user to customize the location where Terraform stores
the files normally placed in the ".terraform" subdirectory, if e.g. the
current working directory is not writable.
In the 0.10 release we added an opt-in mode where Terraform would prompt
interactively for confirmation during apply. We made this opt-in to give
those who wrap Terraform in automation some time to update their scripts
to explicitly opt out of this behavior where appropriate.
Here we switch the default so that a "terraform apply" with no arguments
will -- if it computes a non-empty diff -- display the diff and wait for
the user to type "yes" in similar vein to the "terraform destroy" command.
This makes the commonly-used "terraform apply" a safe workflow for
interactive use, so "terraform plan" is now mainly for use in automation
where a separate planning step is used. The apply command remains
non-interactive when given an explicit plan file.
The previous behavior -- though not recommended -- can be obtained by
explicitly setting the -auto-approve option on the apply command line,
and indeed that is how all of the tests are updated here so that they can
continue to run non-interactively.
Update the command package to use the new module storage. Move the old
command output strings into the module storage itself. This could be
moved back later either by using ui callbacks, or designing a module
storage interface once we know what the final requirements will look
like.
We encourage users to share the "terraform version" output as part of
filing an issue, but previously it only printed the core Terraform version
and this left provider maintainers with no information about which
_provider_ version an issue relates to.
Here we make a best effort to show versions for providers, though we will
omit some or all of them if either "terraform init" hasn't been run (and
so no providers were selected yet) or if there are other inconsistencies
that would cause Terraform to object on startup and require a re-run of
"terraform init".
Two different errors here caused this test to pass even though it was
incorrect: the wanted version string was incorrect, but the test for it
was also inverted, and so together this made the test pass even though
it was actually not testing the output at all.
Update all references to the version values to use the new package.
The VersionString function was left in the terraform package
specifically for the aws provider, which is vendored. We can remove that
last call once the provider is updated.
The command package is the main place we need access to these, so that
we can use them during init (to install packages, for example) and so that
we can use them to configure remote backends.
For the moment we're just providing an empty credentials object, which
will start to include both statically-configured and
helper-program-provided credentials sources in subsequent commits.
This uses the new diagnostics printer for config-related errors in the
main five commands that deal with config.
The immediate motivation for this is to allow HCL2-produced diagnostics
to be printed out in their full fidelity, though it also slightly changes
the presentation of other errors so that they are not presented in all
red text, which can be hard to read on some terminals.
This new method showDiagnostics takes any value that would be accepted by
tfdiags.Append and renders it to the UI.
This is intended to encourage consistent handling of the different kinds
of errors and diagnostics that can be produced, and allow richer error
objects like the HCL2 diagnostics to be easily unwrapped and shown in
their full-fidelity.
Previously we were using fmt.Sprintf and thus forcing the stringification
of the wrapped error.
Using errwrap allows us to unpack the original error at the top of the
stack, which is useful when the wrapped error is really a hcl.Diagnostics
containing potentially-multiple errors and possibly warnings.
This is a tough one to unit tests because the behavior is tangled up in
the code that hits releases.hashicorp.com, so we'll add this e2etest as
some extra insurance that this works end-to-end.
Since we now have a guide that recommends some specific ways to run
Terraform in automation, we can mimic those suggestions in an e2e test and
thus ensure they keep working.
Here we test the three different approaches suggested in the guide:
- init, plan, apply (main case)
- init, apply (e.g. for deploying to a QA/staging environment)
- init, plan (e.g. for verifying a pull request)
In 6712192724 we stopped counting data
source destroys in the destroy tally since they are an implementation
detail.
This caused this test to start failing, though since the new behavior is
correct here we just update the test to match.
Shell tab completion for all of the subcommands under
"terraform workspace", providing the appropriate kind of auto-complete for
each argument, along with completion for for any flags.
This helper is a Predictor for the "complete" package that tries to
auto-complete workspace names from the current backend, if it's
initialized and operable.
The predictors built in to the "complete" package assume that the same
type of argument is repeated indefinitely, but most Terraform commands
don't work like that, so this helper allows us to define a sequence of
predictors that apply to each argument in turn.
This new option allows importing without configuration present.
Configuration is required by default as a confirmation that the provided resource name is correct, but it can be useful to override this in tools that wrap Terraform to do more involved operations.
In #15884 we adjusted the plan output to give an explicit command to run
to apply a plan, whereas before this command was just alluded to in the
prose.
Since releasing that, we've got good feedback that it's confusing to
include such instructions when Terraform is running in a workflow
automation tool, because such tools usually abstract away exactly what
commands are run and require users to take different actions to
proceed through the workflow.
To accommodate such environments while retaining helpful messages for
normal CLI usage, here we introduce a new environment variable
TF_IN_AUTOMATION which, when set to a non-empty value, is a hint to
Terraform that it isn't being run in an interactive command shell and
it should thus tone down the "next steps" messaging.
The documentation for this setting is included as part of the "...in
automation" guide since it's not generally useful in other cases. We also
intentionally disclaim comprehensive support for this since we want to
avoid creating an extreme number of "if running in automation..."
codepaths that would increase the testing matrix and hurt maintainability.
The focus is specifically on the output of the three commands we give in
the automation guide, which at present means the following two situations:
* "terraform init" does not include the final paragraphs that suggest
running "terraform plan" and tell you in what situations you might need
to re-run "terraform init".
* "terraform plan" does not include the final paragraphs that either
warn about not specifying "-out=..." or instruct to run
"terraform apply" with the generated plan file.
In 3ea1592 the plan rendering was refactored to add an extra indirection
of producing a display-oriented plan object first and then rendering from
that object.
There was a logic error while adapting the existing plan rendering code
to use the new display-oriented object: the core InstanceDiff object sets
the "Destroy" flag (a boolean) for both DiffDestroy and DiffDestroyCreate,
and so this code previously checked r.Destroy to recognize the
"destroy-create" case. This was incorrectly adapted to a check for the
display action being DiffDestroy, when it should actually have been
DiffDestroyCreate.
The effect of this bug was to cause the "(forces new resource)"
annotations to not be displayed on attributes, though the resource-level
information still correctly reflected that a new resource was required.
This fix restores the attribute-level annotations.
The previous diff presentation was rather "wordy", and not very friendly
to those who can't see color either because they have color-blindness or
because they don't have a color-supporting terminal.
This new presentation uses the actual symbols used in the plan output
and tries to be more concise. It also uses some framing characters to
try to separate the different stages of "terraform plan" to make it
easier to visually navigate.
The apply command also adopts this new plan presentation, in preparation
for "terraform apply" (with interactive plan confirmation) becoming the
primary, safe workflow in the next major release.
Finally, we standardize on the terminology "perform" and "actions" rather
than "execute" and "changes" to reflect the fact that reading is now an
action and that isn't actually a _change_.
Previously the rendered plan output was constructed directly from the
core plan and then annotated with counts derived from the count hook.
At various places we applied little adjustments to deal with the fact that
the user-facing diff model is not identical to the internal diff model,
including the special handling of data source reads and destroys. Since
this logic was just muddled into the rendering code, it behaved
inconsistently with the tally of adds, updates and deletes.
This change reworks the plan formatter so that it happens in two stages:
- First, we produce a specialized Plan object that is tailored for use
in the UI. This applies all the relevant logic to transform the
physical model into the user model.
- Second, we do a straightforward visual rendering of the display-oriented
plan object.
For the moment this is slightly overkill since there's only one rendering
path, but it does give us the benefit of letting the counts be derived
from the same data as the full detailed diff, ensuring that they'll stay
consistent.
Later we may choose to have other UIs for plans, such as a
machine-readable output intended to drive a web UI. In that case, we'd
want the web UI to consume a serialization of the _display-oriented_ plan
so that it doesn't need to re-implement all of these UI special cases.
This introduces to core a new diff action type for "refresh". Currently
this is used _only_ in the UI layer, to represent data source reads.
Later it would be good to use this type for the core diff as well, to
improve consistency, but that is left for another day to keep this change
focused on the UI.
Previously we were checking required_version only during "real" operations, and not during initialization. Catching it during init is better because that's the first command users run on a new working directory.
Go 1.9 adds this new function which, when called, marks the caller as
being a "helper function". Helper function stack frames are then skipped
when trying to find a line of test code to blame for a test failure, so
that the code in the main test function appears in the test failure output
rather than a line within the helper function itself.
This covers many -- but probaly not all -- of our test helpers across
various packages.
Fix the -state and -state-out wording to be consistent with other
commands. Remove the erroneous reference to remote state in the website
version of the flag description.
While the `local.Local` backend is the only implementation of
`backend.Local`, creating the backend with `ForceLocal` bypasses the
`backend.Backend` in the `local.Local` causing a local state to be
implicitly created rather than using the configured state backend.
Add a test that imports into a configured backend (using the "local"
backend as a remote state proxy). This further confirms the confusing
nature of ForceLocal, as the backend _is_ local, but not from the
viewpoint of meta.Backend.
This restores the earlier behavior of the first positional argument to
terraform init in 0.9, but as a command line option.
The positional argument was removed to improve consistency with other
commands that take a working directory as their first positional argument.
It was originally intended that this functionality would return in a
later release along with some other general improvements to Terraform's
module handling, but we're introducing here an interim solution that
uses the existing module source concept, to allow for easier porting of
workflows that previously depended on the automatic copy behavior.
In a future release this feature may change again as the module
improvements design firms up, but we expect it to be broadly compatible
with this temporary state.
