Terraform 0.12 compatibility #62

Closed jbscare closed 4 years ago

jbscare commented 5 years ago

It'd be great if Terrascript were compatible with Terraform 0.12 when it came out (or soon after).

mjuenema commented 5 years ago

Hi Josh,

I fear that's going to be quite a challenge. I haven't really looked into it yet but one option would be to create a completely new Terrascript2 project for Terraform 0.12+. It appears that Hashicorp cleaned up some oddities of the JSON configuration language for Terraform 11 and earlier. That may make my job actually much easier. Maintaining backwards compatibility might become a complete nightmare. So the current Terrascript release may be "frozen" and future development may go into "Terrascript2".

Markus

PS: I am contemplating asking the community whether anyone is interested in becoming co-maintainer(s) of the project. I only have limited time available and could do with some help.

@mjuenema, I think that I would be a co-maintener. I'm currently building the script to create the resources/data based on documentation (https://github.com/terraform-providers/).

mjuenema commented 5 years ago

Thanks Nielson, I am going to check how that works on Github. I'll let you know.

I'd happily jump in and help with this work, I am starting to use this at work, and they would let me work on this on the clock. I'm also going to go through other issues and see if I can help.

mjuenema commented 5 years ago

@Spikeophant Great thanks.

mjuenema commented 5 years ago

I am going to start on a separate branch for Terraform 0.12 soon.

somehowadev commented 5 years ago

Hey, how's this going? Need any help?

mjuenema commented 5 years ago

Sorry for the lack of progress here. First I have been really busy with work and now I am away on holidays (much nicer!). I hope that I can start on Terraform 0.12 compatibility sometime in early August.

Spikeophant commented 5 years ago

I'm in the same boat, swamped with work, we pushed back our TF 0.12 project until August as well so this aligns with the timeline I'll be able to jump in too.

mjuenema commented 5 years ago

There is now a develop-0.7 branch which has not seen much testing yet but contains a lot of changes introduced by Pull Request #72. Personally I will be focussing on a major code rewrite which will eventually become release 0.8.0. I find the (my!) current code really messy and that's never a good sign.

mjuenema commented 4 years ago

I am closing this is as I am actively (really, just started finding some time!!!) working on 0.8.0 which will support Terraform 0.12
