#terraform-0_12 - March 2019

Woooooooooooooooooooooo

I got stuff like

Error: Incorrect attribute value type

  on .terraform/modules/rds_cluster_aurora_mysql_serverless/main.tf line 22, in resource "aws_security_group" "default":
  22:     security_groups = ["${var.security_groups}"]

Inappropriate value for attribute "security_groups": element 0: string
required.

after updating to the beta

Will various modules be being update soon or should I hold off for a while?

(I'm also pretty new to Terraform so excuse any future ignorance 🙂 )

pokes @Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse)

@idlework unfortunately we have not had a chance to update any of our modules to 0.12 (yet)

So we cannot provide much yet in ways of guidance.

Oh I was simply interested in that information, thank you. I will hold off on upgrading (since I use your modules!)

also, the terraform-aws-provider v2+ might have broken some things

we have a lot of homework ahead of us

@Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) Are you saying that you think the most recent aws provider for 0.12 might itself be broken? Or that changes in the provider might have broken bits of sweetops modules?

the terraform-aws-provider is used by all versions of terraform. it broke compatibility with some things.

For example, I ran into this: https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-aws/issues/7846
