This commit touches an intersection of a few different provider-oriented
features that combined to cause a particularly severe bug that made it
impossible for users to upgrade provider versions without seeing
replacements with their resources.
For some context, Pulumi models all providers as resources and places
them in the snapshot like any other resource. Every resource has a
reference to the provider that created it. If a Pulumi program does not
specify a particular provider to use when performing a resource
operation, the Pulumi engine injects one automatically; these are called
"default providers" and are the most common ways that users end up with
providers in their snapshot. Default providers can be identified by
their name, which is always prefixed with "default".
Recently, in an effort to make the Pulumi engine more flexible with
provider versions, it was made possible for the engine to have multiple
default providers active for a provider of a particular type, which was
previously not possible. Because a provider is identified as a tuple of
package name and version, it was difficult to find a name for these
duplicate default providers that did not cause additional problems. The
provider versioning PR gave these default providers a name that was
derived from the version of the package. This proved to be a problem,
because when users upgraded from one version of a package to another,
this changed the name of their default provider which in turn caused all
of their resources created using that provider (read: everything) to be
replaced.
To combat this, this PR introduces a rule that the engine will apply
when diffing a resource to determine whether or not it needs to be
replaced: "If a resource's provider changes, and both old and new
providers are default providers whose properties do not require
replacement, proceed as if there were no diff." This allows the engine
to gracefully recognize and recover when a resource's default provider changes
names, as long as the provider's config has not changed.
We model providers as resources in our state file, but we were
neglecting to set Outputs for these resources. This was problematic
when we started to try to run DiffConfig, because when diffing a
resource we compare thed new inputs and the old outputs, but the
resource never had any old outputs, so it was impossible for the
provider to see what the old state of the resource was.
To fix this, we now reflect the inputs we use the create the provider
reference as outputs on the resource.
For provider plugins, the gRPC interfaces expect that a URN would be
included as part of the DiffConfig/CheckConfig request, which means we
need to flow this value into our Provider interface.
This change does that.
* Load specific provider versions if requested
As part of pulumi/pulumi#2389, we need the ability for language hosts to
tell the engine that a particular resource registration, read, or invoke
needs to use a particular version of a resource provider. This was not
previously possible before; the engine prior to this commit loaded
plugins from a default provider map, which was inferred for every
resource provider based on the contents of a user's package.json, and
was itself prone to bugs.
This PR adds the engine support needed for language hosts to request a
particular version of a provider. If this occurs, the source evaluator
specifically records the intent to load a provider with a given version
and produces a "default" provider registration that requests exactly
that version. This allows the source evaluator to produce multiple
default providers for a signle package, which was previously not
possible.
This is accomplished by having the source evaluator deal in the
"ProviderRequest" type, which is a tuple of version and package. A
request to load a provider whose version matches the package of a
previously loaded provider will re-use the existing default provider. If
the version was not previously loaded, a new default provider is
injected.

* Install missing plugins on startup
This commit addresses the problem of missing plugins by scanning the
snapshot and language host on startup for the list of required plugins
and, if there are any plugins that are required but not installed,
installs them. The mechanism by which plugins are installed is exactly
the same as 'pulumi plugin install'.
The installation of missing plugins is best-effort and, if it fails,
will not fail the update.
This commit addresses pulumi/pulumi-azure#200, where users using Pulumi
in CI often found themselves missing plugins.

These changes take advantage of the newly-added support for returning
inputs from Read to update a resource's inputs as part of a refresh.
As a consequence, the Pulumi engine will now properly detect drift
between the actual state of a resource and the desired state described
by the program and generate appropriate update or replace steps.
As part of these changes, a resource's old inputs are now passed to the
provider when performing a refresh. The provider can take advantage of
this to maintain the accuracy of any additional data or metadata in the
resource's inputs that may need to be updated during the refresh.
This is required for the complete implementation of
https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-terraform/pull/349. Without access to
the old inputs for a resource, TF-based providers would lose all
information about default population during a refresh.
This implements the new algorithm for deciding which resources must be
deleted due to a delete-before-replace operation.
We need to compute the set of resources that may be replaced by a
change to the resource under consideration. We do this by taking the
complete set of transitive dependents on the resource under
consideration and removing any resources that would not be replaced by
changes to their dependencies. We determine whether or not a resource
may be replaced by substituting unknowns for input properties that may
change due to deletion of the resources their value depends on and
calling the resource provider's Diff method.
This is perhaps clearer when described by example. Consider the
following dependency graph:
A
__|__
B C
| _|_
D E F
In this graph, all of B, C, D, E, and F transitively depend on A. It may
be the case, however, that changes to the specific properties of any of
those resources R that would occur if a resource on the path to A were
deleted and recreated may not cause R to be replaced. For example, the
edge from B to A may be a simple dependsOn edge such that a change to
B does not actually influence any of B's input properties. In that case,
neither B nor D would need to be deleted before A could be deleted.
In order to make the above algorithm a reality, the resource monitor
interface has been updated to include a map that associates an input
property key with the list of resources that input property depends on.
Older clients of the resource monitor will leave this map empty, in
which case all input properties will be treated as depending on all
dependencies of the resource. This is probably overly conservative, but
it is less conservative than what we currently implement, and is
certainly correct.
These changes add a new resource to the Pulumi SDK,
`pulumi.StackReference`, that represents a reference to another stack.
This resource has an output property, `outputs`, that contains the
complete set of outputs for the referenced stack. The Pulumi account
performing the deployment that creates a `StackReference` must have
access to the referenced stack or the call will fail.
This resource is implemented by a builtin provider managed by the engine.
This provider will be used for any custom resources and invokes inside
the `pulumi:pulumi` module. Currently this provider supports only the
`pulumi:pulumi:StackReference` resource.
Fixes#109.
We run the same suite of changes that we did on gometalinter. This
ended up catching a few new issues, some of which were addressed and
some of which were baselined.
The provider registry was checking for a `nil` provider instance before
checking for a non-nil error. This caused the CLI to fail to report
important errors during the plugin load process (e.g. invalid checkpoint
errors) and instead report a failure to find a matching plugin.
* Validate type tokens before using them
When registering or reading a resource, we take the type token given to
us from the language host and assume that it's valid, which resulted in
assertion failures in various places in the engine. This commit
validates the format of type tokens given to us from the language host
and issues an appropriate error if it's not valid.
Along the way, this commit also improves the way that fatal exceptions
are rendered in the Node language host.

This commit reverts most of #1853 and replaces it with functionally
identical logic, using the notion of status message-specific sinks.
In other words, where the original commit implemented ephemeral status
messages by adding an `isStatus` parameter to most of the logging
methdos in pulumi/pulumi, this implements ephemeral status messages as a
parallel logging sink, which emits _only_ ephemeral status messages.
The original commit message in that PR was:
> Allow log events to be marked "status" events
>
> This commit will introduce a field, IsStatus to LogRequest. A "status"
> logging event will be displayed in the Info column of the main
> display, but will not be printed out at the end, when resource
> operations complete.
>
> For example, for complex resource initialization, we'd like to display
> a series of intermediate results: [1/4] Service object created, for
> example. We'd like these to appear in the Info column, but not at the
> end, where they are not helpful to the user.
Some time ago, we introduced the concept of the initialization error to
Pulumi (i.e., an error where the resource was successfully created but
failed to fully initialize). This was originally implemented in `Create`
and `Update` methods of the resource provider interface; when we
detected an initialization failure, we'd pack the live version of the
object into the error, and return that to the engine.
Omitted from this initial implementation was a similar semantics for
`Read`. There are many implications of this, but one of them is that a
`pulumi refresh` will erase any initialization errors that had
previously been observed, even if the initialization errors still exist
in the resource.
This commit will introduce the initialization error semantics to `Read`,
fixing this issue.
When calculating deletes, we will only issue a single delete step for a
particular URN. This is incorrect in the presence of pending deletes
that share URNs with a live resource if the pending deletes follow the
live resource in the checkpoint: instead of issuing a delete for
every resource with a particular URN, we will only issue deletes for
the pending deletes.
Before first-class providers, this was mostly benigin: any remaining
resources could be deleted by re-running the destroy. With the
first-class provider changes, however, the provider for the undeleted
resources will be deleted, leaving the checkpoint in an invalid state.
These changes fix this issue by allowing the step generator to issue
multiple deletes for a single URN and add a test for this scenario.
### First-Class Providers
These changes implement support for first-class providers. First-class
providers are provider plugins that are exposed as resources via the
Pulumi programming model so that they may be explicitly and multiply
instantiated. Each instance of a provider resource may be configured
differently, and configuration parameters may be source from the
outputs of other resources.
### Provider Plugin Changes
In order to accommodate the need to verify and diff provider
configuration and configure providers without complete configuration
information, these changes adjust the high-level provider plugin
interface. Two new methods for validating a provider's configuration
and diffing changes to the same have been added (`CheckConfig` and
`DiffConfig`, respectively), and the type of the configuration bag
accepted by `Configure` has been changed to a `PropertyMap`.
These changes have not yet been reflected in the provider plugin gRPC
interface. We will do this in a set of follow-up changes. Until then,
these methods are implemented by adapters:
- `CheckConfig` validates that all configuration parameters are string
or unknown properties. This is necessary because existing plugins
only accept string-typed configuration values.
- `DiffConfig` either returns "never replace" if all configuration
values are known or "must replace" if any configuration value is
unknown. The justification for this behavior is given
[here](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1695/files#diff-a6cd5c7f337665f5bb22e92ca5f07537R106)
- `Configure` converts the config bag to a legacy config map and
configures the provider plugin if all config values are known. If any
config value is unknown, the underlying plugin is not configured and
the provider may only perform `Check`, `Read`, and `Invoke`, all of
which return empty results. We justify this behavior becuase it is
only possible during a preview and provides the best experience we
can manage with the existing gRPC interface.
### Resource Model Changes
Providers are now exposed as resources that participate in a stack's
dependency graph. Like other resources, they are explicitly created,
may have multiple instances, and may have dependencies on other
resources. Providers are referred to using provider references, which
are a combination of the provider's URN and its ID. This design
addresses the need during a preview to refer to providers that have not
yet been physically created and therefore have no ID.
All custom resources that are not themselves providers must specify a
single provider via a provider reference. The named provider will be
used to manage that resource's CRUD operations. If a resource's
provider reference changes, the resource must be replaced. Though its
URN is not present in the resource's dependency list, the provider
should be treated as a dependency of the resource when topologically
sorting the dependency graph.
Finally, `Invoke` operations must now specify a provider to use for the
invocation via a provider reference.
### Engine Changes
First-class providers support requires a few changes to the engine:
- The engine must have some way to map from provider references to
provider plugins. It must be possible to add providers from a stack's
checkpoint to this map and to register new/updated providers during
the execution of a plan in response to CRUD operations on provider
resources.
- In order to support updating existing stacks using existing Pulumi
programs that may not explicitly instantiate providers, the engine
must be able to manage the "default" providers for each package
referenced by a checkpoint or Pulumi program. The configuration for
a "default" provider is taken from the stack's configuration data.
The former need is addressed by adding a provider registry type that is
responsible for managing all of the plugins required by a plan. In
addition to loading plugins froma checkpoint and providing the ability
to map from a provider reference to a provider plugin, this type serves
as the provider plugin for providers themselves (i.e. it is the
"provider provider").
The latter need is solved via two relatively self-contained changes to
plan setup and the eval source.
During plan setup, the old checkpoint is scanned for custom resources
that do not have a provider reference in order to compute the set of
packages that require a default provider. Once this set has been
computed, the required default provider definitions are conjured and
prepended to the checkpoint's resource list. Each resource that
requires a default provider is then updated to refer to the default
provider for its package.
While an eval source is running, each custom resource registration,
resource read, and invoke that does not name a provider is trapped
before being returned by the source iterator. If no default provider
for the appropriate package has been registered, the eval source
synthesizes an appropriate registration, waits for it to complete, and
records the registered provider's reference. This reference is injected
into the original request, which is then processed as usual. If a
default provider was already registered, the recorded reference is
used and no new registration occurs.
### SDK Changes
These changes only expose first-class providers from the Node.JS SDK.
- A new abstract class, `ProviderResource`, can be subclassed and used
to instantiate first-class providers.
- A new field in `ResourceOptions`, `provider`, can be used to supply
a particular provider instance to manage a `CustomResource`'s CRUD
operations.
- A new type, `InvokeOptions`, can be used to specify options that
control the behavior of a call to `pulumi.runtime.invoke`. This type
includes a `provider` field that is analogous to
`ResourceOptions.provider`.
