add an error_tag optional field to resource.shell_script
This is a hack that fixes #60.
I believe the footprint to be reasonably small and that it has some merit.
I'm tempted to use a DiffSuppressFunc
that disables the diff entirely for this field, hoping to trigger no changes at all when adding an error_tag
or changing it - but that may be counter-intuitive ; and it would take some explaining - so I refrained.
The biggest downside is that it's not very Terraformish. Maybe the real solution for #60 should be within Terraform itself.
The tests pass and I added an extra one, but I'm in no way sure that I did not break anything.
Feel free to close if you believe this fix is too much of a burden to maintain or ill designed.
I think this could be a good idea except i would like to see it combined with the retry block from earlier. For example, I could see something like:
resource "shell_script" "basic" {
lifecycle_commands {
create = <<EOF
echo "Something went wrong!"
exit 1
EOF
delete = "exit 1"
}
environment = {
filename= "create_delete.json"
}
on_error = {
tag = var.username
retry = {
exit_code = 30
delay = 5
}
}
}
)
