Chaange ResourceProvider to providers.Interface starting from the
context, and fix all type errors.
This only replaced some of method calls directly applicable to the
providers themselves. The resource methods will follow.
Due to how often the state and plan types are referenced throughout
Terraform, there isn't a great way to switch them out gradually. As a
consequence, this huge commit gets us from the old world to a _compilable_
new world, but still has a large number of known test failures due to
key functionality being stubbed out.
The stubs here are for anything that interacts with providers, since we
now need to do the follow-up work to similarly replace the old
terraform.ResourceProvider interface with its replacement in the new
"providers" package. That work, along with work to fix the remaining
failing tests, will follow in subsequent commits.
The aim here was to replace all references to terraform.State and its
downstream types with states.State, terraform.Plan with plans.Plan,
state.State with statemgr.State, and switch to the new implementations of
the state and plan file formats. However, due to the number of times those
types are used, this also ended up affecting numerous other parts of core
such as terraform.Hook, the backend.Backend interface, and most of the CLI
commands.
Just as with 5861dbf3fc49b19587a31816eb06f511ab861bb4 before, I apologize
in advance to the person who inevitably just found this huge commit while
spelunking through the commit history.
The "config" package is no longer used and will be removed as part
of the 0.12 release cleanup. Since configschema is part of the
"new world" of configuration modelling, it makes more sense for
it to live as a subdirectory of the newer "configs" package.
Previously we had the evaluate methods accept directly an
addrs.InstanceKey and had our evaluator infer a suitable value for
count.index for it, but that prevents us from setting the index to be
unknown in the validation scenario where we may not be able to predict
the number of instances yet but we still want to be able to check that
the configuration block is type-safe for all possible count values.
To achieve this, we separate the concern of deciding on a value for
count.index from the concern of evaluating it, which then allows for
other implementations of this in future. For the purpose of this commit
there is no change in behavior, with the count.index value being populated
whenever the instance key is a number.
This commit does a little more groundwork for the future implementation
of the for_each feature (which'll support each.key and each.value) but
still doesn't yet implement it, leaving it just stubbed out for the
moment.
EvaluateBlock and EvaluateExpr are often called multiple times in a single
operation, and our usual approach of mocking with static values is a poor
fit for those cases.
To accommodate more complex tests, we allow the test to optionally provide
a callback function to use instead of the static return values.
Since a pretty common need is to just evaluate the given block or
expression in a simple way, we also now have a helper method
installSimpleEval that installs reasonable implementations of these
two methods that can (assuming no other customization) just evaluate
constant expressions, which is sufficient for many tests.
Some of the objects that are referencable from expressions are transient
values computed only during a graph walk, and not persisted in state. In
order to support arbitrary evaluation of expressions, such as in the
"terraform console" CLI command, it's necessary to be able to evaluate
these values before we start evaluating.
This new Eval method achieves this by performing a special graph walk that
ignores resources (except for dependency resolution) and just focuses on
evaluating all of these transient values, before returning an evaluation
scope that can then resolve expressions in terms of that result.
This replaces the Context.Interpolator method, which was fraught with
various issues due to it not properly priming the state before evaluating.
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.
This is currently not very ergonomic due to the API exposed by providers.
We'll smooth this out in a later change to improve the provider API, since
we know we always want the entire schema.
This turned out to be a big messy commit, since the way providers are
referenced is tightly coupled throughout the code. That starts to unify
how providers are referenced, using the format output node Name method.
Add a new field to the internal resource data types called
ResolvedProvider. This is set by a new setter method SetProvider when a
resource is connected to a provider during graph creation. This allows
us to later lookup the provider instance a resource is connected to,
without requiring it to have the same module path.
The InitProvider context method now takes 2 arguments, one if the
provider type and the second is the full name of the provider. While the
provider type could still be parsed from the full name, this makes it
more explicit and, and changes to the name format won't effect this
code.
Use the configured providers directly, rather than looking for inherited
provider configuration during graph evaluation.
First remove the provider config cache, and the associated
SetProviderConfig and ParentProviderConfig methods on the eval context.
Every provider must be configured, so there's no need to look for
configuration from other provider instances.
The config.ProviderConfig struct now has a Scope field which stores the
proper path for the interpolation scope. To get this metadata to the
interpolator, we add an EvalInterpolatProvider node which can carry the
ProviderConfig, and an InterpolateProvider context method to carry the
ProviderConfig.Scope into the InterplationScope.
Some of the tests could be adjusted to account for the new inheritance
behavior, and some were simply no longer valid and will be removed.
The remaining tests have questions on how they should work in practice.
This mostly concerns orphaned modules where there is no longer a way to
obtain a provider. In some cases we may require that a minimal provider
config be present to handle the destroy process, but we need further
testing.
All disabled code was commented out in this commit to record any
additional comments. The following commit will be a cleanup pass.
This switches to the Go "context" package for cancellation and threads
the context through all the way to evaluation to allow behavior based on
stopping deep within graph execution.
This also adds the Stop API to provisioners so they can quickly exit
when stop is called.
This changes the representation of maps in the interpolator from the
dotted flatmap form of a string variable named "var.variablename.key"
per map element to use native HIL maps instead.
This involves porting some of the interpolation functions in order to
keep the tests green, and adding support for map outputs.
There is one backwards incompatibility: as a result of an implementation
detail of maps, one could access an indexed map variable using the
syntax "${var.variablename.key}".
This is no longer possible - instead HIL native syntax -
"${var.variablename["key"]}" must be used. This was previously
documented, (though not heavily used) so it must be noted as a backward
compatibility issue for Terraform 0.7.
Currently Terraform is leaking goroutines and with that memory. I know
strictly speaking this maybe isn’t a real concern for Terraform as it’s
mostly used as a short running command line executable.
But there are a few of us out there that are using Terraform in some
long running processes and then this starts to become a problem.
Next to that it’s of course good programming practise to clean up
resources when they're not needed anymore. So even for the standard
command line use case, this seems an improvement in resource management.
Personally I see no downsides as the primary connection to the plugin
is kept alive (the plugin is not killed) and only unused connections
that will never be used again are closed to free up any related
goroutines and memory.
