Dmitry Grigorenko (gitHUB)	27aa4cb6bf	website: fix documented naming scheme for provider plugins	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	3d33a36bf6	website: update terminology used in provider config docs ... The bulk of the text on this page hasn't been revised for some time and so parts of it were using non-idiomatic terminology or not defining terms at all. The main goal of this revision is to standardize on the following terms: - "provider configuration" refers to a specific provider block in config, as a distinct idea from the provider _itself_, which is a singleton. - "Default" vs. "additional" provider configurations, distinguishing those without and with "alias" arguments respectively. These are named here so that we can use this terminology to describe the different behaviors of each for the purposes of provider inheritance between modules.	9 years ago
Patrick Decat	00c3367dda	website: Replace `~` by `$HOME` in documentation of TF_PLUGIN_CACHE_DIR	9 years ago
James Bardin	da0e74276a	fix provider with local value test and docs ... Make sure this fails during destroy Add a note in the documentation that local values may fail during destroy.	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	34956cd124	website: Document the plugin cache ... Since we don't currently auto-install provisioner plugins this is currently placed on the providers documentation page and referred to as the "Provider Plugin Cache". In future this mechanism may also apply to provisioners, in which case we'll figure out at that point where better to place this information so it can be referenced from both the provider and provisioner documentation pages.	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	f19bf25945	website: don't recommend "providers" block in CLI config ... This mechanism for configuring plugins is now deprecated, since it's not capable of declaring plugin versions. Instead, we recommend just placing plugins into a particular directory, which is now documented on the main providers documentation page and linked from the more detailed docs on plugins in general.	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	c5d8f2ffd2	website: clarify that provider version does not accept interpolations ... This fixes #15896.	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	bb0e57fec1	website: explain how to upgrade providers ... Previously the -upgrade option was covered only on the "terraform init" usage page. It seems also worth mentioning in the main docs on provider versioning, since we're already explaining here other mechanics of the versioning/constraints system.	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	7ed70bb00e	website: new filesystem layout for core/provider split ... This repo now contains only the core docs, with other content moving elsewhere.	9 years ago
