Using the new possibility of provider-contributed functions, this introduces three new functions which live in the terraform.io/builtin/terraform provider, rather than being language builtins, due to their Terraform-domain-specific nature. The three new functions are: - tfvarsencode: takes a mapping value and tries to transform it into Terraform CLI's "tfvars" syntax, which is a small subset of HCL that only supports key/value pairs with constant values. - tfvarsdecode: takes a string containing content that could potentially appear in a "tfvars" file and returns an object representing the raw variable values defined inside. - exprencode: takes an arbitrary Terraform value and produces a string that would yield a similar value if parsed as a Terraform expression. All three of these are very specialized, of use only in unusual situations where someone is "gluing together" different Terraform configurations etc when the usual strategies such as data sources are not suitable. There's more information on the motivations for (and limitations of) each function in the included documentation. |
