Currently Terraform will use an entry from the global plugin cache only if it matches a checksum already recorded in the dependency lock file. This allows Terraform to produce a complete lock file entry on the first encounter with a new provider, whereas using the cache in that case would cause the lock file to only cover the single package in the cache and thereefore be unusable on any other operating system or CPU architecture. This temporary CLI config option is a pragmatic exception to support those who cannot currently correctly use the dependency lock file but who still want to benefit from the plugin cache. With this setting enabled, Terraform has permission to produce a dependency lock file that is only suitable for the current system if that would allow use of an existing entry in the plugin cache. We are introducing this option to resolve a conflict between the needs of folks who are using the dependency lock file as expected and the needs of folks who cannot use the dependency lock file for some reason. The hope then is to give respite to those who need this exception in the meantime while we understand better why they cannot use the dependency lock file and improve its design so that everyone will be able to use it successfully in a future version of Terraform. This option will become a silent no-op in a future version of Terraform, once the dependency lock file behavior is sufficient for all supported Terraform development workflows. |
