Martin Atkins	30204ecded	command/cliconfig: Allow development overrides for providers ... For normal provider installation we want to associate each provider with a selected version number and find a suitable package for that version that conforms to the official hashes for that release. Those requirements are very onerous for a provider developer currently testing a not-yet-released build, though. To allow for that case this new CLI configuration feature allows overriding specific providers to refer to give local filesystem directories. Any provider overridden in this way is not subject to the usual restrictions about selected versions or checksum conformance, and activating an override won't cause any changes to the selections recorded in the lock file because it's intended to be a temporary setting for one developer only. This is, in a sense, a spiritual successor of an old capability we had to override specific plugins in the CLI configuration file. There were some vestiges of that left in the main package and CLI config package but nothing has actually been honoring them for several versions now and so this commit removes them to avoid confusion with the new mechanism.	5 years ago
Martin Atkins	c7fe6b9160	command/cliconfig: handle provider_installation block in JSON syntax ... The CLI config can be written in both native HCL and HCL JSON syntaxes, so the provider_installation block must be expressible using JSON too. Our previous checks to approximate HCL 2-level strictness were too strict for HCL JSON where things are more ambiguous even in HCL 2, so this includes some additional relaxations if we detect that we're decoding an AST produced from a JSON file. This is still subject to the quirky ways HCL 1 handles JSON though, so the JSON value must be structured in a way that doesn't trigger HCL's heuristics that try to guess what is a block and what is an attribute. (This is the issue that HCL 2 fixes by always decoding using a schema; there's more context on this in: https://log.martinatkins.me/2019/04/25/hcl-json/ )	6 years ago
Martin Atkins	8b75d1498f	command/cliconfig: Use existing HTTP mirror source rather than new stub ... An earlier commit added a redundant stub for a new network mirror source that was already previously stubbed as HTTPMirrorSource. This commit removes the unnecessary extra stub and changes the CLI config handling to use it instead. Along the way this also switches to using a full base URL rather than just a hostname for the mirror, because using the usual "Terraform-native service discovery" protocol here doesn't isn't as useful as in the places we normally use it (the mirror mechanism is already serving as an indirection over the registry protocol) and using a direct base URL will make it easier to deploy an HTTP mirror under a path prefix on an existing static file server.	6 years ago
Martin Atkins	2c535d829d	command/cliconfig: Decode provider_installation blocks ... This new CLI config block type allows explicitly specifying where Terraform should look to find provider plugins for installation. This is not used anywhere as of this commit, but in a future commit we'll change package main to treat the presence of a block of this type as a request to disable the default set of provider sources and use these explicitly- specified ones instead.	6 years ago
Martin Atkins	e1590d0a70	command/cliconfig: Factor out CLI config handling ... This is just a wholesale move of the CLI configuration types and functions from the main package into its own package, leaving behind some type aliases and wrappers for now to keep existing callers working. This commit alone doesn't really achieve anything, but in future commits we'll expand the functionality in this package.	7 years ago
