(I was thinking like docker cli ---> docker daemon) but it looks like thats not really how it is

No - the CLI hosts the engine

Later on in that video has the best guide that I’m aware of to the various moving parts

Maybe the easiest thing for me to do would be decide on the set of CLI commands I need to support and then basically re-write them (direct from the

cmd

folder) as something like HTTP/Rest end points -- focus on only making new stuff/new changes at the edge (like where it reads input from / prints text to the terminal)

So, I would be in charge of creating that stable interface myself -- and then updating it whenever I need to pull in a new feature and the build breaks 😄

We do have

--json

on many CLI commands whose purpose is to make it easier to script around the CLI so you don’t have to write your own

if that’s your goal

oh!! maybe that's what I want !

e.g.

Copy code

▶ pulumi stack ls --json
[
  {
    "name": "dev",
    "current": true,
    "lastUpdate": "2019-03-20T23:18:32.000Z",
    "updateInProgress": false,
    "resourceCount": 3,
    "url": "<https://app.pulumi.com/swgillespie/ec2/dev>"
  }
]

I did a lightning talk today at F# Exchange conference about the potential use of F# with Pulumi. Many people came to me and asked "yeah, so you said it's experimental and what-not, but can I actually use it? I need something like this so badly". That's just a nudge to you folks to push the cross-language story and .NET in particular further 🙂

Great news @tall-librarian-49374! How was the rest of the conference?

@stocky-spoon-28903 It's a great place to be! The conference is small and cozy, and but so many people are welcoming and great to chat with.

Nice! I haven’t been in a few years, it was always a great conference.

Given a blog about using python was just published I'm guessing there's been some internal movement towards "yes multi-language"

How can I help with this feature? https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes/issues/449. I'm willing to take a stab at it, but I have a few questions about how to attack it. Also, I want to be sure that it would be a welcomed contribution before starting on it.

My employer has a Terraform provider (IBM Cloud/Softlayer) that I'd like to layer Pulumi on top of. Is there a step-by-step walkthrough (not just an example--I understand Go but I am not a Go programmer and the time I have available for this is minimal) for creating a Pulumi provider on top of an existing Terraform provider?

I believe I have a fix for pulumi-aws#252, but am having a heck of a time creating a pull request via

make travis_pull_request

. Basically, I have not been able to configure my build environment correctly, so make always fails near the end. It does work enough to build and install to test the changes.

Examples in

pulumi-azure

use

peerDependencies

package.json

. How do I make this thing work locally? Types don't seem to pick up without doing anything...

white-balloon-205

06/04/2019, 3:56 PM

yarn link @pulumi/azure

in the example after building locally. The local build links that package on the machine.

06/04/2019, 4:19 PM

Hmm, I guess I was doing it wrong. Will try again, thanks.

@tall-librarian-49374 caveat: if your

~/.config

directory is a symlink,

yarn link

fails silently

tall-librarian-49374

06/05/2019, 7:23 AM

Got it working, I guess I had some mess with links/folders/WSL/whatever. Thanks @white-balloon-205 @stocky-spoon-28903

Hi all! I’ve submitted a PR to allow setting backend/cloud url in

Pulumi.yaml

https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/2813 what do you think about this idea?

Hello, I am trying to build pulumi (using https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) and facing errors in the process. Is that the right channel for help?

Apologies for the delay - @breezy-hamburger-69619 and or myself will take a look today!

Anyone able to take a look at this? https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-eks/pull/184

tall-librarian-49374

06/27/2019, 3:53 PM

I've been looking at fixing https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/2784. Found a plausible place in

pulumi/pulumi/pkg/resource/asset.go

where the fix could go. I build

pulumi

CLI with a fix and see the paths do change while running

pulumi up

(with logging to console), however the archive binary in Azure Blob Storage does NOT change. Question: is this piece of code executed inside CLI or also inside the azure provider process? If the later, how do I setup the local environement to be able to bring locally changed package

pulumi/pulumi

pulumi-azure
