For the resources which should be replaced in place you see no changes in output

[kevit]

Imagine a situation when you want to add one more record in route table as below

# aws_default_route_table.main will be updated in-place
  ~ resource "aws_default_route_table" "main" {
        id                     = "rtb-048986295f3176afa"

tf-summarize marked only that resource is updated, but not mentioned that new records(or changed records) took place

Expected behaviour: list of changed records

[dineshba]

Could you please provide the current tf-summarize output for the above terraform plan?

[buckleyGI]

I used tf-summarize in the past without any problem but I think I hit this problem just now. Can I send you the plan directly @dineshba ? I will sent a redacted version.

[buckleyGI]

The -json flag doesn't show version changes (for example) to helm charts

Given this is input tf-summarize -json picks up the changes but displays {}

I don't think this is the expected behaviour?

[dineshba]

Hi @buckleyGI , I have created a new release to surface this error and print in stderr. Could you please update to https://github.com/dineshba/tf-summarize/releases/tag/v0.3.13 and try it and let me know if the error is similar to

error: unmarshalling diff: invalid character '}' looking for beginning of value

[dineshba]

I was able to reproduce this issue.

Working tfplan.json tfplan.json Notworking tfplan.json tfplan-notworking.json

tf-summarize -json tfplan.json

In this tfplan-notworking.json, I have removed the metadata field in the after resource_change which is creating this issue.

Fix needs little more extra time to investigation. So, I made a quick fix to print the raw format if there is issue with formatting jsondiff

I will try to fix it. If someone is able to contribute, please help here

[buckleyGI]

Thanks for reproducing the issue. This is indeed my case as well, the metadata field in the after change has a character that the triggered the problem. Thanks dineshba!
