Pulumi looks like it's off to a great start. I see that most of the developer examples are in JS/TS, but I would love to see more then the one example in Python. Do you have a simple example or doc of what is supported by the Pulumi engine for passing Python callables to the get/set/put/post methods of the cloud.HttpEndpoint resource?

Pulumi does look great. It was hinted on hackers news that you can self host pulumi and there is the --cloud-url flag on pulumi login which also hints that you can use a back end hosted elsewhere. But I dont see any information on this or the expected rep on git hub? Can we self host and if so how?

pulumi login --cloud-url local://

somewhat works. I wonder if and how I can point that at s3.....

Hey people 🙂

I was trying out pulumi today, using golang, even though it’s still in preview

And I stumbled upon quite some small issues, but huddled through them, and finally got stuck in an error telling me that I don’t have the aws plugin and I don’t know how to install the aws plugin using the

pulumi plugin install

command, as it keeps telling me that the

KIND

I mentioned is wrong. I just assumed the

KIND

is

aws

. I tried searching in the pulumi site a bit, couldn’t find anything. Is this info present in any doc ? 🙂

If it is, please let me know. Till then, I am planning to try out pulumi using Js instead 😄

Okay, trying out the Js version of the whole thing was pretty easy - packages for the code and aws plugin got installed automatically. looks like plugins are global ? I am able to

pulumi preview

even in my golang repo now. I guess there was some issue in automatically getting aws plugin while scaffolding golang project

We will make sure to document this, sorry for the troubles! Other languages automatically install the plugins as part of package management, but we are still working out the best way to do this with Go. In the meantime,

pulumi plugin install resource aws 0.14.0

should do the trick.

Ah. Okay.

Great! You're entirely correct, we have a global plugin cache. You can see what's in it with

pulumi plugin ls

.

Yes, that’s how I managed to make sure

aws

was present 😄

Thanks for the help ! 😄 And about the doc, I would be happy to help document it if you are planning to do it temporarily, till the automated solution is put up

That would be wonderful, really appreciate the help! Definitely curious, where would you yourself have discovered it? The package READMEs have `go get`s, so it could be done there.

You mean

pulumi

repo readme ?

I thought of putting it in the tour site which is the only place that I know of mentioning Golang, Python code. So we could put a note in this page :

<https://pulumi.io/tour/basics-projects.html>

where the users create the project

I even made some small mistakes. Not sure if some of them can be documented to help others like me. I made mistakes like not creating the project in the Go workspace directory (

$GOPATH

). Then I didn’t do

go build

and

go install .

to get the executable in the

$PATH

through the

$GOPATH/bin

- I guessed this from the error I got about the program executable missing. And while doing that I realized the dependencies didn’t install automatically, so I installed it using

dep ensure

, and then I faced the plugin issue finally, for which you just helped me 🙂

Thanks to @echoing-match-29901 for the cool software ! 😄 It’s pretty cool! I just followed the tour in the site and saw how easy it is to create a s3 bucket and change

acl

in it, all in just a few lines of code. 😄 This is the first time I am doing such automated deployment related stuff, but I can make sense out of how much effort has been put into this as it feels so easy because of the fact that

pulumi

has done all the heavy lifting

It also makes sense of how easy it is to reproduce the deployment with the same code! 😄

@big-piano-35669 is there a simple example or doc of what is supported by the Pulumi engine for passing Python callables to the get/set/put/post methods of the cloud.HttpEndpoint resource?

Okay I see that the HttpEndpoint is only for JS/TS https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-cloud/tree/master/api

Ah yes, sorry for missing your question earlier, Tony. That is right, the

API

class (renamed from

HttpEndpoint

) is JS/TS-only at the moment. The cloud package overall is still in a very early state, so definitely eager to hear feedback on the concepts there and where you'd like to see us take them.

It would be nice to have a python package of pulumi-cloud

Do you intended to port the JS/TS framework or is that something you are leaving to the community?

@big-piano-35669 Good to see that Sean started porting pulumi-aws-infra in python. I see Network was worked on last week. I suspect Cluster, etc.. are on his road map which would make porting pulumi-cloud's shared.ts to shared.py as a first step straightforward

Spent today wrapping Pulumi in a framework with IoC container etc. Will blog post my results when I've cleaned them up a bit and built an npm module for it.

Howdy folks, maybe covered somewhere already but interested in the thinking/vision around deploying whole docker applications as code, into different clouds AWS/Azure with support for Kubernetes and Azure Service Fabric orchestrators?

Hello, I was wondering how could new cloud could be added to pulumi? Do you have a guide for cloud provider to add support for their cloud on your framework?

I spent the day using this to bring up a vpc and associated infrastructure on aws. I do like it. Is there a recommended get the outputs of one project and feed them into the inputs of another project? I want to define a route53 zone in a project called "site" that all the stacks of another project reference.
