The main significant change here is that the package name for the proto
definition is "tfplugin5", which is important because this name is part
of the wire protocol for references to types defined in our package.
Along with that, we also move the generated package into "internal" to
make it explicit that importing the generated Go package from elsewhere is
not the right approach for externally-implemented SDKs, which should
instead vendor the proto definition they are using and generate their
own stubs to ensure that the wire protocol is the only hard dependency
between Terraform Core and plugins.
After this is merged, any provider binaries built against our
helper/schema package will need to be rebuilt so that they use the new
"tfplugin5" package name instead of "proto".
In a future commit we will include more elaborate and organized
documentation on how an external codebase might make use of our RPC
interface definition to implement an SDK, but the primary concern here
is to ensure we have the right wire package name before release.
Since protoc is not go-gettable, and most development tasks in Terraform
won't involve recompiling protoc files anyway, we'll use a separate
mechanism for these.
This way "go generate" only depends on things we can "go get" in the
"make tools" target.
In a later commit we should also in some way specify a particular version
of protoc to use so that we don't get "flapping" regenerations as
developers work with different versions, but the priority here is just to
make "make generate" minimally usable again to restore the dev workflow
documented in the README.
This also includes some updates that resulted from running "make generate"
and "make protobuf" after those Makefile changes were in place.
Even if a provider doesn't indicate a specific attribute as the cause of
a resource operation error, we know the error relates to some aspect of
the resource, so we'll include that approximate information in the result
so that we don't produce user-hostile error messages with no context
whatsoever.
Later we can hopefully refine this to place the source range on the header
of the configuration block rather than on an empty part of the body, but
that'll require some more complex rework here and so for now we'll just
accept this as an interim state so that the user can at least figure out
which resource block the error is coming from.
An earlier change made the tests not compile here. We now need to use the
legacyPluginMap function, since pluginMap has now been replaced with
helpers to produce new-style plugin _sets_.
Previously we just left these out of the plan altogether, but in the new
plan types we intentionally include change information for every resource
instance, even if no changes are actually planned, to allow alternative
plan file viewers to show what isn't changing as well as what is.
Previously we would construct both provisioner and the provider objects if
either callback was set, but this is incorrect because a plugin should
actually set only one of these at a time, depending on what kind of plugin
it is.
Managing which function need to be shared between the terraform plugin
and the helper plugin without creating cycles was becoming difficult.
Move all functions related to converting between terraform and proto
type into plugin/convert.
Here we add the GRPCProvisioner and GRPCProvider which implement the
core provisioners.Interface and providers.Interface, and translate
betweeen the core types and the grpc protocol.
These will allow easier testing of the grpc endpoints in isolation.
Mocks are generated for ProviderClient, ProvisionerClient,
Provisioner_ProvisionResourceClient, and
Provisioner_ProvisionResourceServer using `go generate`
support the requested platform.
If the newest version of a provider which matches the version
constraints does not support the requested platform, filter the list of
available versions by platform support and try again.
For the moment this is just a lightly-adapted copy of
ModuleTreeDependencies named ConfigTreeDependencies, with the goal that
the two can live concurrently for the moment while not all callers are yet
updated and then we can drop ModuleTreeDependencies and its helper
functions altogether in a later commit.
This can then be used to make "terraform init" and "terraform providers"
work properly with the HCL2-powered configuration loader.
While the TLS handshakes are a fairly small overhead compared to
downloading the providers, clients in some situation are failing to
complete the TLS handshake in a timely manner. It's unclear if this is
because of heavily constrained clients are stalling while doing the
major crpto operations, or the edge servers are throttling repeated
requests from the same IPs.
This should allow reusing the open TLS connection to the release edge
servers during init.
In order to parse provider, resource and data source configuration from
HCL2 config files, we need to know the relevant configuration schema.
This new method allows Terraform Core to request these from a provider.
This is a breaking change to this interface, so all of its implementers
in this package are updated too. This includes concrete implementations
of the new method in helper/schema that use the schema conversion code
added in an earlier commit to produce a configschema.Block automatically.
Plugins compiled against prior versions of helper/schema will not have
support for this method, and so calls to them will fail. Callers of
this new method will therefore need to sniff for support using the
SchemaAvailable field added to both ResourceType and DataSource.
This careful handling will need to persist until next time we increment
the plugin protocol version, at which point we can make the breaking
change of requiring this information to be available.
For users that have metered or slow internet connections it is annoying
to have Terraform constantly re-downloading the same files when they
initialize many separate directories.
To help such users, here we add an opt-in mechanism to use a local
directory as a read-through cache. When enabled, any plugin download will
be skipped if a suitable file already exists in the cache directory. If
the desired plugin isn't in the cache, it will be downloaded into the
cache for use next time.
This mechanism also serves to reduce total disk usage by allowing
plugin files to be shared between many configurations, as long as the
target system isn't Windows and supports either hardlinks or symlinks.
If we encounter something that isn't a file -- for example, a dangling
symlink whose referent has been deleted -- we'll ignore it so that we
can either later produce a "no such plugin" error or auto-install a plugin
that will actually work.
The go-plugin package now uses hclog. The default Logger has a level set
to Info, but all plugin output is relayed via Debug. Create a new named
logger for plugins with the level set to Trace so that all output comes
through.
On Windows systems the plugin binaries use a .exe suffix, which we were
misparsing as part of either the "v" or "x" parts of the filename.
This fixes#15578.
If the release site is missing the "x-terraform-protocol-version"
header, we should fetch the latest spec'ed release. Downloading the
wrong protocol version can't do any damage, and the version present is
more than likely compatible.
Previously we forced only installing for the current GOOS and GOARCH. Now
we allow this to be optionally overridden, which allows building tools
that can, for example, populate a directory with plugins to run on a Linux
server while working on a Mac.
