Martin Atkins	36bb9b462c	website: "for" expression examples to use canonical formatting ... The "terraform fmt" command produces a different canonical form than we were showing in our examples here. Our examples should always reflect the conventions applied by "terraform fmt" to avoid confusion. (This particular decision is a pragmatic one because the formatter design needs to use the same rules for the colon in the ? : conditional operator as for the colon in "for" expressions.)	7 years ago
Martin Atkins	0a9959cbe4	website: References to Resource Attributes ... Since references to attributes of resources are by far the most common reference type, and the mapping of resource type config to the attributes is not always obvious, here we give some real examples of patterns for accessing different configuration constructs within resource blocks along with the resource type's exported attributes. Since we don't have any real examples of labelled nested blocks yet (the current SDK doesn't support them) I've included a hypothetical example for now just to establish the patterns around them in preparation for beginning to introduce them as we roll out this feature in the SDK.	7 years ago

Nick Fagerlund	d2abdc23ac	website: Structural edit of configuration language docs ... This commit is a wide-ranging set of edits to the pages under /docs/configuration. Among other things, it - Separates style conventions out into their own page. - Separates type constraints and conversion info into their own page. - Conflates similar complex types a little more freely, since the distinction is only relevant when restricting inputs for a reusable module or resource. - Clarifies several concepts that confused me during edits.	7 years ago

Martin Atkins	39579e8d0f	website: revisions to the "Configuration Syntax" page and expressions ... This rewrite of the "Configuration Syntax" page now gives some more detail on the top-level structural constructs and de-emphasizes the name "HCL" as subordinate to "the Terraform language". It also now includes some commentary on valid identifiers and comments, and issues around character encodings and line endings. In addition, we now have a new "Expressions" page that replaces the old "Interpolation Syntax" page, covering the expression language features we inherit from HCL and how they behave in the context of Terraform. The "Expressions" page currently links to a page about the built-in functions which does not yet exist. This will be created in a later commit.	8 years ago
