In terraform, is it possible to only add an optional resource argument if a particular variable is set

On my concrete example:
I want to create a rancher environment resource with preconfigured members. But the number of members is supposed to be depending on a variable list. I'd imaging something like
resource "rancher_environment" "renv" {
name = "renv"
project_template_id = "atmplid"
member {
count = "${length(var.memberlist)}"
external_id = "${var.memberlist[count.index]}"
external_id_type = "exttype"
role = "owner"
}
}
This obviously doesn't work. Is there a trick to achieve this behaviour?

You can use null_resource for this. Try this
resource "null_resource" "memberlist" {
count = "${length(var.memberlist)}"
triggers {
external_id = "${var.memberlist[count.index]}"
external_id_type = "exttype"
role = "owner"
}
}
resource "rancher_environment" "renv" {
name = "renv"
project_template_id = "atmplid"
member = ["${null_resource.memberlist.*.triggers}"]
}

At long last, Terraform has just released v0.12.0-alpha1, which contains a more elegant way of solving this exact problem.
