Terraform - v1.9.0-alpha20240404


1.9.0-alpha20240404 (April 4, 2024)

ENHANCEMENTS:

  • terraform console: Now has basic support for multi-line input in interactive mode. (#34822)

    If an entered line contains opening paretheses/etc that are not closed, Terraform will await another line of input to complete the expression. This initial implementation is primarily intended to support pasting in multi-line expressions from elsewhere, rather than for manual multi-line editing, so the interactive editing support is currently limited.

BUG FIXES:

  • remote-exec: Each remote connection will be closed immediately after use (#34137)
  • backend/s3: Fixed the digest value displayed for DynamoDB/S3 state checksum mismatches (#34387)

EXPERIMENTS:

Experiments are only enabled in alpha releases of Terraform CLI. The following features are not yet available in stable releases.

  • terraform test accepts a new option -junit-xml=FILENAME. If specified, and if the test configuration is valid enough to begin executing, then Terraform writes a JUnit XML test result report to the given filename, describing similar information as included in the normal test output. (#34291)
  • The new command terraform rpcapi exposes some Terraform Core functionality through an RPC interface compatible with go-plugin. The exact RPC API exposed here is currently subject to change at any time, because it's here primarily as a vehicle to support the Terraform Stacks private preview and so will be broken if necessary to respond to feedback from private preview participants, or possibly for other reasons. Do not use this mechanism yet outside of Terraform Stacks private preview.
  • The experimental "deferred actions" feature, enabled by passing the -allow-deferral option to terraform plan, permits count and for_each arguments in module, resource, and data blocks to have unknown values and allows providers to react more flexibly to unknown values. This experiment is under active development, and so it's not yet useful to participate in this experiment.
