Previously we were using the experimental HCL 2 repository, but now we'll
shift over to the v2 import path within the main HCL repository as part of
actually releasing HCL 2.0 as stable.
This is a mechanical search/replace to the new import paths. It also
switches to the v2.0.0 release of HCL, which includes some new code that
Terraform didn't previously have but should not change any behavior that
matters for Terraform's purposes.
For the moment the experimental HCL2 repository is still an indirect
dependency via terraform-config-inspect, so it remains in our go.sum and
vendor directories for the moment. Because terraform-config-inspect uses
a much smaller subset of the HCL2 functionality, this does still manage
to prune the vendor directory a little. A subsequent release of
terraform-config-inspect should allow us to completely remove that old
repository in a future commit.
These overly-general interfaces are no longer used anywhere, and their
presence in the important-sounding semantics.go file was a distracting
red herring.
We'd previously replaced the one checker in here with a simple helper
function for checking input variables, and that's arguably more at home
with all of the other InputValue functionality in variables.go, and that
allows us to remove semantics.go (and its associated test file) altogether
and make room for some forthcoming new files for static validation.
This new source type should be used for variables loaded from .tfvars files that were explicitly passed as command line arguments (e.g. -var-file=foo.tfvars)
This test required some adaptation for the new variable handling model in
the HCL2-oriented codepaths, where more of the handling is now done in the
"command" package.
The initial reorganization of this test was not correct, so this is a
further revision to adapt the original assertions to the new model as much
as possible, removing a few tests that no longer make sense in the new
world.
After the refactoring to integrate HCL2 many of the tests were no longer
using correct types, attribute names, etc.
This is a bulk update of all of the tests to make them compile again, with
minimal changes otherwise. Although the tests now compile, many of them
do not yet pass. The tests will be gradually repaired in subsequent
commits, as we continue to complete the refactoring and retrofit work.
Due to how deeply the configuration types go into Terraform Core, there
isn't a great way to switch out to HCL2 gradually. As a consequence, this
huge commit gets us from the old state to a _compilable_ new state, but
does not yet attempt to fix any tests and has a number of known missing
parts and bugs. We will continue to iterate on this in forthcoming
commits, heading back towards passing tests and making Terraform
fully-functional again.
The three main goals here are:
- Use the configuration models from the "configs" package instead of the
older models in the "config" package, which is now deprecated and
preserved only to help us write our migration tool.
- Do expression inspection and evaluation using the functionality of the
new "lang" package, instead of the Interpolator type and related
functionality in the main "terraform" package.
- Represent addresses of various objects using types in the addrs package,
rather than hand-constructed strings. This is not critical to support
the above, but was a big help during the implementation of these other
points since it made it much more explicit what kind of address is
expected in each context.
Since our new packages are built to accommodate some future planned
features that are not yet implemented (e.g. the "for_each" argument on
resources, "count"/"for_each" on modules), and since there's still a fair
amount of functionality still using old-style APIs, there is a moderate
amount of shimming here to connect new assumptions with old, hopefully in
a way that makes it easier to find and eliminate these shims later.
I apologize in advance to the person who inevitably just found this huge
commit while spelunking through the commit history.
Setting variables happens before context validation, so it's possible
that the user could be trying to set an incorrect variable type to a
map. Return a useful error rather than panicking.
Fixes#6447
This ensures that all variables of type string are consistently
converted to a string value upon running Terraform.
The place this is done is in the `Variables()` call within the
`terraform` package. This is the function responsible for loading and
merging the variables from the various sources and seems ideal for
proper conversion to consistent values for various types. We actually
already had tests to this effect.
This also adds docs that talk about the fake-ish boolean variables
Terraform currently has and about how in future versions we'll likely
support them properly, which can cause BC issues so beware.
