All run variables remain encoded as strings in the API but will now be expressed as an HCL value to be evaluated correctly by the remote terraform. Previously, only strings were supported.
Examples:
string: `"quoted literal"` (strings must be quoted)
map: `{ foo = "bar" }`
list: `["foo", "bar"]`
bool: `true`
null: `null`
number: `0.0001`
This requires the API to anticipate that all run variables will be HCL values
These changes remove all of the preexisting version checking for
individual features, wiping the slate clean with an overall minimum
requirement of a future TFP-API-Version 2.5, which at the time of this
writing is expected to be TFE v202112-1.
It also actually provides that expected TFE version as an actionable
error message, rather than generically saying that it isn't supported or
using the somewhat opaque API version header.
This changes the 'name' strategy to always align the local configured
workspace name and the remote Terraform Cloud workspace, rather than the
implicit use of the 'default' unnamed workspace being used instead.
What this essentially means is that the Cloud integration does not fully
support workspaces when configured for a single TFC workspace (as was
the case with the 'remote' backend), but *does* use the
backend.Workspaces() interface to allow for normal local behaviors like
terraform.workspace to resolve to the correct name. It does this by
always setting the local workspace name when the 'name' strategy is
used, as a part of initialization.
Part of the diff here is exporting all the previously unexported types
for mapping workspaces. The command package (and init in particular)
needs to be able to handle setting the local workspace in this
particular scenario.
A mostly cosemetic change; The fields 'workspace' and 'prefix' don't
really describe well what they are from a caller, so change these to use
a workspaceMapping struct to convey they are for implementing workspace
mapping strategies from CLI -> TFC
These changes include additions to fulfill the interface for the client
mock, plus moving all that logic (which needn't be duplicated across
both the remote and cloud packages) over to the cloud package under a
dedicated mock client file.
The cloud package intends to implement a new integration for
Terraform Cloud/Enterprise. The purpose of this integration is to better
support TFC users; it will shed some overly generic UX and architecture,
behavior changes that are otherwise backwards incompatible in the remote
backend, and technical debt - all of which are vestiges from before
Terraform Cloud existed.
This initial commit is largely a porting of the existing 'remote'
backend, which will serve as an underlying implementation detail and not
be a typical user-level backend. This is because to re-implement the
literal backend interface is orthogonal to the purpose of this
integration, and can always be migrated away from later.
As this backend is considered an implementation detail, it will not be
registered as a declarable backend. Within these changes it is, for easy
of initial development and a clean diff.
