Currently `sudo` is applied to `echo` resulting in:
`/etc/apt/sources.list.d/terraform.list: Permission denied`
Using `echo "..." | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/terraform.list` fix the problem
Adding multiple local names for the same provider type in
required_providers was not prevented, which can lead to ambiguous
behavior in Terraform. Providers are always indexed by the providers
fully qualified name, so duplicate local names cannot be differentiated.
The previous version of this document was produced in haste in order to
support the development of the new provider framework, and so it focused
only on the most important details and left some of the operations totally
unmentioned.
This new version aims to capture the full set of managed-resource-related
provider operations, documenting when Terraform Core will call them and
what the provider ought to do in order to meet Terraform Core's
expectations for a valid response.
This new version does still assume a certain amount of knowledge on the
part of the reader about broadly what Terraform does from a user
perspective and what role providers play in that process. Perhaps a future
revision will include some additional background context as well, but
this is a snapshot of what I had time to do today between other work and
so for now I focused on presenting the remaining operations in a similar
amount of detail to what was here before.
For a while now we've had information equivalent to this in various
internal documents that we've referred to when designing features such as
config-driven refactoring, the "replace" planning option, and so forth.
However, so far we've not put that information in any sort of durable
public place that we can easily find and refer to when having design
discussions on GitHub and similar.
This is therefore an attempt to capture a summary of the three main design
patterns we've identified for planning-related behaviors, with a few
motivating examples of each one, in the hope that this will be a good
reference and some helpful inspiration for future design work.
It's intentionally not totally comprehensive of all planning behaviors
both because that would duplicate the end-user-oriented documentation and
because it would be burdensome to keep updating this document each time we
add anything new which might fit into these categories. However, we might
add a later feature to this document if it illustrates a new take or
different perspective on one of these patterns.
Extend the documentation on type constraints to include the new default
functionality, including a detailed example of a nested structure with
multiple levels of defaults.
Now that variables parse and retain a set of default values for
object attributes, we must apply the defaults during variable
evaluation. We do so immediately before type conversion, preprocessing
the given value so that conversion will receive the intended defaults as
appropriate.
The optional modifier previously accepted a single argument: the
attribute type. This commit adds an optional second argument, which
specifies a default value for the attribute.
To record the default values for a variable's type, we use a separate
parallel structure of `typeexpr.Defaults`, rather than extending
`cty.Type` to include a `cty.Value` of defaults (which may in turn
include a `cty.Type` with defaults, and so on, and so forth).
The new `typeexpr.TypeConstraintWithDefaults` returns a type constraint
and defaults value. Defaults will be `nil` unless there are default
values specified somewhere in the variable's type.
