lang/funcs: add (console-only) TypeFunction #28501
Conversation
The type() function, which is only available for terraform console, prints out the type of a given value. This is mainly intended for debugging - it's nice to be able to print out terraform's understanding of a complex variable. This introduces a new field for Scope: ConsoleMode. When ConsoleMode is true, any additional functions intended for use in the console (only) may be added.

Lines up with the configuration for an empty object type constructor:
variable "foo" {
type = object({})

great catch, thank you, those are both much better. I made those changes and added more test cases to go with 'em.

Same method as above, the type constructor syntax for this is:
variable "foo" {
type = tuple([])
}

The
type() function, which is only available for terraform console,prints out a string representation of the type of a given value. This is mainly intended for
debugging - it's handy to be able to directly inspect terraform's understanding
of a complex variable.
This introduces a new field for
lang.Scope:ConsoleMode. WhenConsoleModeis true, any additional functions intended for use in the console (only) may be added.(with bonus
