Martin Atkins	88e76fa9ef	configs/configschema: Introduce the NestingGroup mode for blocks ... In study of existing providers we've found a pattern we werent previously accounting for of using a nested block type to represent a group of arguments that relate to a particular feature that is always enabled but where it improves configuration readability to group all of its settings together in a nested block. The existing NestingSingle was not a good fit for this because it is designed under the assumption that the presence or absence of the block has some significance in enabling or disabling the relevant feature, and so for these always-active cases we'd generate a misleading plan where the settings for the feature appear totally absent, rather than showing the default values that will be selected. NestingGroup is, therefore, a slight variation of NestingSingle where presence vs. absence of the block is not distinguishable (it's never null) and instead its contents are treated as unset when the block is absent. This then in turn causes any default values associated with the nested arguments to be honored and displayed in the plan whenever the block is not explicitly configured. The current SDK cannot activate this mode, but that's okay because its "legacy type system" opt-out flag allows it to force a block to be processed in this way anyway. We're adding this now so that we can introduce the feature in a future SDK without causing a breaking change to the protocol, since the set of possible block nesting modes is not extensible.	7 years ago
Martin Atkins	b217624d83	config/configupgrade: Test to show that list unwrapping works for sets ... This was already working but we had no tests to prove it.	7 years ago
Martin Atkins	549544f201	configschema: Handle nested blocks containing dynamic-typed attributes ... We need to make the collection itself be a tuple or object rather than list or map in this case, since otherwise all of the elements of the collection are constrained to be of the same type and that isn't the intent of a provider indicating that it accepts any type.	8 years ago
James Bardin	50e099ad10	don't set Unknown for computed values ... Any value that is not set in the configuration should decode as a Null value. Unknown should still be returned if a computed value expression is unknown.	8 years ago
Martin Atkins	479c6b2466	move "configschema" from "config" to "configs" ... The "config" package is no longer used and will be removed as part of the 0.12 release cleanup. Since configschema is part of the "new world" of configuration modelling, it makes more sense for it to live as a subdirectory of the newer "configs" package.	8 years ago
