package workdir import ( "fmt" "os" "path/filepath" ) // Dir represents a single Terraform working directory. // // "Working directory" is unfortunately a slight misnomer, because non-default // options can potentially stretch the definition such that multiple working // directories end up appearing to share a data directory, or other similar // anomolies, but we continue to use this terminology both for historical // reasons and because it reflects the common case without any special // overrides. // // The naming convention for methods on this type is that methods whose names // begin with "Override" affect only characteristics of the particular object // they're called on, changing where it looks for data, while methods whose // names begin with "Set" will write settings to disk such that other instances // referring to the same directories will also see them. Given that, the // "Override" methods should be used only during the initialization steps // for a Dir object, typically only inside "package main", so that all // subsequent work elsewhere will access consistent locations on disk. // // We're gradually transitioning to using this type to manage working directory // settings, and so not everything in the working directory "data dir" is // encapsulated here yet, but hopefully we'll gradually migrate all of those // settings here over time. The working directory state not yet managed in here // is typically managed directly in the "command" package, either directly // inside commands or in methods of the giant command.Meta type. type Dir struct { // mainDir is the path to the directory that we present as the // "working directory" in the user model, which is typically the // current working directory when running Terraform CLI, or the // directory explicitly chosen by the user using the -chdir=... // global option. mainDir string // originalDir is the path to the working directory that was // selected when creating the Terraform CLI process, regardless of // -chdir=... being set. This is only for very limited purposes // related to backward compatibility; most functionality should // use mainDir instead. originalDir string // dataDir is the path to the directory where we will store our // working directory settings and artifacts. This is typically a // directory named ".terraform" within mainDir, but users may // override it. dataDir string } // NewDir constructs a new working directory, anchored at the given path. // // In normal use, mainPath should be "." to reflect the current working // directory, with "package main" having switched the process's current // working directory if necessary prior to calling this function. However, // unusual situations in tests may set mainPath to a temporary directory, or // similar. // // WARNING: Although the logic in this package is intended to work regardless // of whether mainPath is actually the current working directory, we're // currently in a transitional state where this package shares responsibility // for the working directory with various command.Meta methods, and those // often assume that the main path of the working directory will always be // ".".
