terragrunt plan/apply dependency warnings about terragrunt HOT 9 OPEN

hey @levkohimins, I am usure if this is the correct thing to do, but I noticed changing config_path in b to "${get_terragrunt_dir()}/../a" seems to work in both c and d

from terragrunt.

I aggree! Same issue at my side at the same process.

Hey @ben-dov,
I wasn't able to repro the issue, the test config I used https://github.com/levkohimins/terragrunt-issue-3080. Can you confirm that the issue is resolved? If not, please provide test configs to reproduce it.

Hey @levkohimins, I tested and found what is missing in your repo to match my case (I probably was unclear).
in order to encounter my bug you just need to change the path in first/b/terragrunt.hcl from ../../second/a to ../a (use relative path of C to A).
after changing, you will see that plans running on C work fine, but plans on D have a warning (but otherwise seem to work).

Hey @ben-dov, Thanks for clarifying. I dare say, just the opposite, the previous behavior before v0.55.6 was incorrect. It makes sense and is intuitive when the relative path is calculated from the location of the included file, not from where it is included. In your case, you need to use the path_relative_to_include() function.

dependency "a" {
  config_path = "${path_relative_to_include()}/../a"
}

Please let me know if this doesn't solve your problem.

hey @levkohimins, if so, it is still weird that runnning C directly causes no warning,

Anyway, I attempted the change and it works in this simple scenario, but not it in others.

New example changes

1. in b, hange config_path to ${path_relative_to_include()}/../a (as per your suggestion)
2. Add the directory second under another parent named into_second
3. Fix path in c, change include "b" path from ../../first/b/terragrunt.hcl to ../../../first/b/terragrunt.hcl

Expected behavior

Runing terragrunt plan in C or D works.

What actually happens

C returns an error:

ERRO[0000] <project-root>/into_second/into_second/second/a does not exist 
ERRO[0000] Unable to determine underlying exit code, so Terragrunt will exit with error code 1 

D also errors with:

WARN[0000] Error reading file <project-root>/into_second/into_second/second/a: open <project-root>/into_second/into_second/second/a: no such file or directory 
ERRO[0000] open <project-root>/into_second/into_second/second/a: no such file or directory 
ERRO[0000] Unable to determine underlying exit code, so Terragrunt will exit with error code 1

hi @ben-dov,

I missed one point, since path_relative_to_include() returns a relative path from the b dir, config_path is assigned to ../../into_second/second/c/ + ../a, but including is happening from c directory and when we actually include the dependency a, we calculate the absolute path from the directory c and it looks like this
into_second/second/c/ + ../../into_second/second/c/ + ../a => into_second/into_second/second/a.

Thus, we have to build the relative path from the c directory, for this we need to use another func, path_relative_from_include(), and in the end it should look like this:

dependency "a" {
  config_path = "${path_relative_from_include()}/${path_relative_to_include()}/../a"
}

into_second/second/c/ + ../../../first/b/ + ../../into_second/second/c/ + ../a => into_second/second/a

I hope this helped you solve the issue.

THX @levkohimins for the quick response,

Running terragrunt plan on c works without issues,
but running on d prints the warning (but does not fail), kinda like the first problem:

WARN[0000] Error reading file <partial-absolute-path>/into_second/second/a: open <partial-absolute-path>/into_second/second/a: no such file or directory 
WARN[0000] Error reading partial config for dependency c: open <partial-absolute-path>/into_second/second/a: no such file or directory

what seems to be missing now is the parent the project directory in partial-absolute-path

I attempted to add another directory pre_into that will contain into_second, but the project directory was still missing from the path when running from d

from terragrunt.

This is a bug. I will try to fix it in a while.

It's great that you found a workaround.
