Description

  • Direct state reads for GCS, Azure
  • Unsupported configs fall back to native
  • Azure account keys resolved once per run
  • Setup failures fail loud, not mocks

TODOs

Read the Gruntwork contribution guidelines.

  • I authored this code entirely myself
  • I am submitting code based on open source software (e.g. MIT, MPL-2.0, Apache)
  • I am adding or upgrading a dependency or adapted code and confirm it has a compatible open source license
  • Update the docs.
  • Update the changelog in the docs.
  • Run the relevant tests successfully, including pre-commit checks.
  • This change is backwards compatible.
  • If this change is not forwards compatible (e.g. a new feature), it is gated behind a feature flag.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Dependency outputs can now be read directly from S3, GCS, and Azure Storage state where supported.
    • Added Azure Storage support for direct state reads when the Azure backend experiment is enabled.
    • Unsupported configurations automatically fall back to the native output process.
    • Missing state continues to use configured mock outputs.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved Azure credential handling, caching, error reporting, and environment detection.
    • Improved streaming and error handling when parsing remote state outputs.
  • Documentation

    • Updated backend support, encryption limitations, fallback behavior, and version-specific guidance.
    • Added v1.1.4 changelog entries for GCS and Azure state reads.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Terragrunt now reads dependency outputs directly from supported S3, GCS, and AzureRM state backends. The change adds backend validation, workspace handling, streaming state parsing, Azure client caching, native fallback behavior, integration tests, regression coverage, and updated documentation.

Changes

Dependency state read orchestration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared direct-read orchestration
pkg/config/dependency.go, pkg/config/dependency_state.go, pkg/config/context.go, internal/venv/*, pkg/config/*_test.go
Direct readers are selected through a backend registry. Credentials and process environments are reused across fallback paths. State outputs are parsed from streams. Missing state, invalid workspaces, cleanup, and fallback behavior are covered.
S3 direct state reads
pkg/config/dependency_state_s3.go
S3 reads validate workspace prefixes and encryption settings, construct workspace-specific keys, fetch state, and classify missing objects.
GCS direct state reads
pkg/config/dependency_state_gcs.go
GCS reads validate configuration, credentials, environment, and encryption settings. Supported state objects are read with optional customer-supplied encryption keys.
AzureRM direct state reads
pkg/config/dependency_state_azurerm.go, internal/remotestate/backend/azurerm/*, internal/azurehelper/*
AzureRM reads validate authentication and storage settings, resolve workspace blob keys, use cached state clients, and report typed setup errors.
Backend integration coverage
test/fixtures/output-from-remote-state-*, test/integration_azure_test.go, test/integration_gcp_test.go, pkg/config/dependency_state_test.go
Integration and unit tests verify direct reads, mock-output fallback, streaming behavior, encryption headers, resource cleanup, and Azure setup failures.
Remote-state fallback regression
test/fixtures/regressions/dependency-remote-state-fallback-extra-args-env/*, test/integration_regressions_tf_test.go
Regression coverage verifies that extra_arguments environment variables remain available during native output fallback.
Backend support documentation
docs/src/content/docs/*, docs/src/data/experiments/*, docs/src/data/flags/*, docs/src/data/changelog/v1.1.4/*
Documentation describes supported backends, version gates, fallback conditions, encryption limitations, and AzureRM experiment status.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 97c77

This PR adds direct GCS and Azure state reads, but current merge-readiness risk remains moderate because documentation may expose v1.1.4 behavior before release and certain dot-segment workspace values may select the wrong state object; one regression test can also pass with an uninformative mock value. These bounded issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

1980-1998: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Move the direct-read fast path before the temp working directory setup.

getTerragruntOutputJSONFromRemoteState creates pctx.DownloadDir, makes a temp directory, and registers the RemoveAll cleanup before it checks directStateReaders. A direct read never uses tempWorkDir or tfRunOpts. Every direct dependency read therefore performs three filesystem operations for nothing. Move the reader dispatch above the MkdirAll/MkdirTemp block.

It looks like PR supersedes #5499
We've been running this alpha release for a while without issues but would like to upgrade to newer TG features including vuln fixes. Is this PR likely to merged any time soon given we need the fetching remote output directly from GCS?

Hey, I re-opened your PR to try to give you credit, but it might be faster to just get this reviewed and add a line to the changelog to give you credit for the first pass at this, @joshmyers .

We should be able to get this in 1.1.4.

@yhakbar Agreed, don't think there is much point rebasing #5499 when this looks to do the same feature + for Azure. Happy for this to land if it's gonna be soon, else it's gonna have to be a fork 😭

This API is a little weird. It's not a reader in the io.Reader sense.

Would it be better to have a type like this:

type directStateBackend struct {
      supported func(*ParsingContext, *remotestate.RemoteState) bool
      read      func(context.Context, log.Logger, *ParsingContext, *remotestate.RemoteState, string) ([]byte, error)
}

And a global var like this:

var directStateBackends = map[string]directStateBackend{...}

Use a distinct mock output value.

If module-b output retrieval fails, the resolver can return module-c’s "argocd" mock for the allowed "output" command. The assertion at test/integration_regressions_tf_test.go:1167 can then pass without proving that module-b’s output-time environment variable was used. Set the mock to "mock-not-used".

Shouldn't ErrStateClientCoordinates be a type?

Why are we doing this? We shouldn't need to.

Again, can't we just open the file here instead of reading it all into memory?

Why are we using a method for this instead of assigning a value directly in the struct like we do for the rest?

If we can get rid of ProcessEnv, I think that would be really good and address my concerns here. If not, I think this does the job and can be merged in. Just tell me if you want the stamp.
