Chef run_list required rather than optional

[PartTimeLegend]

In the documentation you can see that run_list is marked as optional. However when using the Chef provider you will get the message "run_list": required field is not set.

If you look at the Chef documentation, it states that empty run_list is fine

Terraform version: v0.9.11

Is this still an issue? The code: https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-chef/blob/62dd4f5790b407fca7ce1584ef7871d51dea30d4/chef/resource_node.go#L54-L58 it's marked as optional.

Not an issue for me - with this HCL:

resource "chef_node" "test" {
  name             = "test"

It creates the node fine:

$ terraform version
Terraform v0.11.4
+ provider.chef v0.1.0
$ terraform apply

An execution plan has been generated and is shown below.
Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  + create

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  + chef_node.test
      id:                        <computed>
      automatic_attributes_json: "{}"
      default_attributes_json:   "{}"
      environment_name:          "_default"
      name:                      "test"
      normal_attributes_json:    "{}"
      override_attributes_json:  "{}"

Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

Do you want to perform these actions?
  Terraform will perform the actions described above.
  Only 'yes' will be accepted to approve.

  Enter a value: yes
