Yuri Astrakhan 0bd29ce194 clarify config block in terraform_remote_state
This seems to be a common mistake - saw it in StackOverflow
and in several issues.

website: add Sentinel 0.12 upgrade guide details
This adds details for using Sentinel in Terraform 0.12. It largely
links to the corresponding guide in the Terraform Enterprise
documentation.

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.

Martin Atkins 2238fbda1b website: v0.12 upgrade guide about list variables and brackets 2019-04-17 11:16:16 -07:00
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.

Martin Atkins 08f0f60908 website: Temporary link to the beta1 announcement from v0.12 guide
The announcement post contains the information about the temporary
situation where not all of the providers are compatible yet. Linking there
rather than duplicating the information in the upgrade guide means we'll
be able to update in one place as the situation changes.

Martin Atkins da4862e3f7 website: Revamped upgrade guide for v0.12.0-beta1
The upgrade guide had its last major upgrade while we were preparing for
the alpha releases. Now that the upgrade tool is more complete we can
describe the required changes in terms of that tool, and also add
additional information about provider upgrades.

We will revise this at least one more time before v0.12.0 final, but this
is an interim copy of the upgrade guide intended to help those who are
testing the beta releases.

Martin Atkins 9441e78fb9 website: v0.12 preview upgrade guide tweaks
Based on some feedback on the initial draft, make some minor updates to
how information is presented in the preview upgrade guide for v0.12.

This also includes some minor copy-editing work to try to make the "voice"
more consistent between different sections of the guide.
