Some updates to staticcheck were catching more errors. Most of these
were format functions without a format string, but rather than adding
more exceptions I just fixed them all. This did also catch some
incorrectly wrapped errors.
Since terraform show can accept three different kinds of file to act on, its
error messages were starting to become untidy and unhelpful. The main issue was
that if we successfully identified the file type but then ran into some problem
while reading or processing it, the "real" error would be obscured by some other
useless errors (since a file of one type is necessarily invalid as the other
types).
This commit tries to winnow it down to just one best error message, in the
"happy path" case where we know what we're dealing with but hit a snag. (If we
still have no idea, then we fall back to dumping everything.)
One funny bit: We need to know the ViewType at the point where we ask the Cloud
backend for the plan JSON, because we need to switch between two distinctly
different formats for human show vs. `show -json`. I chose to pass that by
stashing it on the command struct; passing it as an argument would also work,
but one, the argument lists in these nested method calls were getting a little
unwieldy, and two, many of these functions had to be receiver methods anyway in
order to call methods on Meta.
When showing a saved plan, we do not need to check the state lineage
against current state, because the plan cannot be applied. This is
relevant when plan and apply specify a `-state` argument to choose a
non-default state file. In this case, the stored prior state in the plan
will not match the default state file, so a lineage check will always
error.
This is a replacement declaration for using Terraform Cloud as a remote
backend, leaving the literal backend as an implementation detail and not
a user-level concept.
Previously terraform.Context was built in an unfortunate way where all of
the data was provided up front in terraform.NewContext and then mutated
directly by subsequent operations. That made the data flow hard to follow,
commonly leading to bugs, and also meant that we were forced to take
various actions too early in terraform.NewContext, rather than waiting
until a more appropriate time during an operation.
This (enormous) commit changes terraform.Context so that its fields are
broadly just unchanging data about the execution context (current
workspace name, available plugins, etc) whereas the main data Terraform
works with arrives via individual method arguments and is returned in
return values.
Specifically, this means that terraform.Context no longer "has-a" config,
state, and "planned changes", instead holding on to those only temporarily
during an operation. The caller is responsible for propagating the outcome
of one step into the next step so that the data flow between operations is
actually visible.
However, since that's a change to the main entry points in the "terraform"
package, this commit also touches every file in the codebase which
interacted with those APIs. Most of the noise here is in updating tests
to take the same actions using the new API style, but this also affects
the main-code callers in the backends and in the command package.
My goal here was to refactor without changing observable behavior, but in
practice there are a couple externally-visible behavior variations here
that seemed okay in service of the broader goal:
- The "terraform graph" command is no longer hooked directly into the
core graph builders, because that's no longer part of the public API.
However, I did include a couple new Context functions whose contract
is to produce a UI-oriented graph, and _for now_ those continue to
return the physical graph we use for those operations. There's no
exported API for generating the "validate" and "eval" graphs, because
neither is particularly interesting in its own right, and so
"terraform graph" no longer supports those graph types.
- terraform.NewContext no longer has the responsibility for collecting
all of the provider schemas up front. Instead, we wait until we need
them. However, that means that some of our error messages now have a
slightly different shape due to unwinding through a differently-shaped
call stack. As of this commit we also end up reloading the schemas
multiple times in some cases, which is functionally acceptable but
likely represents a performance regression. I intend to rework this to
use caching, but I'm saving that for a later commit because this one is
big enough already.
The proximal reason for this change is to resolve the chicken/egg problem
whereby there was previously no single point where we could apply "moved"
statements to the previous run state before creating a plan. With this
change in place, we can now do that as part of Context.Plan, prior to
forking the input state into the three separate state artifacts we use
during planning.
However, this is at least the third project in a row where the previous
API design led to piling more functionality into terraform.NewContext and
then working around the incorrect order of operations that produces, so
I intend that by paying the cost/risk of this large diff now we can in
turn reduce the cost/risk of future projects that relate to our main
workflow actions.
This is part of a general effort to move all of Terraform's non-library
package surface under internal in order to reinforce that these are for
internal use within Terraform only.
If you were previously importing packages under this prefix into an
external codebase, you could pin to an earlier release tag as an interim
solution until you've make a plan to achieve the same functionality some
other way.
