Larger diff than expected when updating helm_release 'set' 'value' #916
Conversation
Fix issue hashicorp#915 where when re-deploying a helm_release after changing a 'set' 'value' the plan generated indicates that values not changing will be deleted and re-applied even though they have not been changed. The issue is caused by the resource diff process removing the 'set' 'type' value from the state as it was not set in the original terraform code. When initially applying the plan the default value "" was used for the 'set' 'type' and stored in the state, when redeploying the original value of 'set' 'type' is requested but as no default has been set in the schema it is marked as removed, which then results in null being stored in the state for the value of 'set' 'type'. This cause an internal warning to be generated in the logs: "Provider "registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/helm" produced an unexpected new value for helm_release.test during refresh."

@jrhouston - as this is a first PR for terraform helm provider, is there anything more you might need/I've missed in this PR? |
Thanks! do you have kind of your own private registry where you uploaded your custom build of the provider? |

@fcrespofastly looking at the contributors and some previous PRs it looks like a key contributor is @jrhouston |

Hey @jrhouston! 👋🏻 👋🏻 this seems like a pretty reasonable and straightforward PR, any chance we can get this merged? We currently can't render manifests which impacts our ability to validate the plan prior to apply. |

Description
Fix issue #915 where when re-deploying a helm_release after changing a 'set' 'value' the plan generated indicates that values not changing will be deleted and re-applied even though they have not been changed.
The issue is caused by the resource diff process removing the 'set' 'type' value from the state as it was not set in the original terraform code. When initially applying the plan the default value "" was used for the 'set' 'type' and stored in the state, when redeploying the original value of 'set' 'type' is requested but as no default has been set in the schema it is marked as removed, which then results in null being stored in the state for the value of 'set' 'type'.
This causes an internal warning to be generated in the logs:
"Provider "registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/helm" produced an unexpected new value for helm_release.test during refresh."
