- Lazily produce conversion failure diagnostics. This lowers the
allocation volume and cuts down on execution time by avoiding the
conversion of source and dest types to strings.
- Add a fast path for union conversions that checks if the source type
is identical to any of the union's element types. Type equality
checks are generally much faster than type conversion checks.
These changes lead to a significant speedup in codegen time in
azure-native.
Some property names are mapped from their `camelCase` Pulumi name to a
`snake_case` Python name. This mapping is irregular, and only occurs for
resources properties and function calls.
Note that there's still more work to do here: this only fixes names on
the output side; the input side is still broken for nested resource
proprerties and function calls.
The underlying design--annotated types in `hcl2/model`--may need some
additional work in the future, but I _believe_ it's good enough for now.
These changes add a package for type checking and modeling HCL2
configurations. It is made up of three primary components:
1. A static type system
2. A semantic representation of HCL2 expressions and a binder from HCL2
native syntax to this representation
3. A semantic representation of HCL2 structural elements and binders
from HCL2 native syntax to this representation.
The type system is described in the "Extended Types" section of the
specification. The semantic representations of expressions and
structural elements are documented in their implementations.
