“Thanks to integration with Terraform providers, Pulumi is able to support a superset of the providers that Terraform currently offers.” So, how would you leverage a TF provider such as pingdom? Pingdom isn’t listed as a provider in Pulumi.

Is there a way to get or create a resource? I’m trying to add a Cloudwatch log group subscription to a log group that may or may not exist when I deploy to different regions and accounts. When I try:

let batchLogGroup = null;
    try {
        batchLogGroup = aws.cloudwatch.LogGroup.get(`batch-log-group-${region}`, '/aws/batch/job', {},  {provider})
    } catch (e) {
        batchLogGroup = new aws.cloudwatch.LogGroup(`batch-log-group-${region}`, {name: "/aws/batch/job", retentionInDays: 7}, {provider})
    }

I get `error:

Preview failed: resource ‘/aws/batch/job’ does not exist

.

Hello. I'm trying to determine the best way to dynamically spin up and tear down infrastructure from my app backend. The Pulumi Team Pro plan says it includes access to APIs and Webhooks. Does anyone know where I can find the docs for that API?

Hey. Either I found a bug or I am doing something wrong. Could you please advise (or should I submit a GH issue)? What am I trying to do is to retrieve an existing aws AMI imageId deployed to the same aws account from which I do request. For some reason when my search query finds AMI, the returned imageId is undefined.

const ami = aws.getAmi({
            mostRecent: false,
            owners: ["0123456"], // my AWS account ID
        }, { provider: args.provider });

        let imageId = ami.imageId || ami.id;

        console.log('IMAGE ID: ' + imageId); 
//result: Your query returned more than one result. Please try a more specific search criteria, or set `most_recent` attribute to true.

const ami = aws.getAmi({
            filters: [
                {
                    name: "name",
                    values: ['non existing ami name'],
                }
            ],
            mostRecent: true,
            owners: ["0123456"], // my AWS account ID
        }, { provider: args.provider });

        let imageId = ami.imageId || ami.id;

        console.log('IMAGE ID: ' + imageId); 
// result:  Your query returned no results. Please change your search criteria and try again.

const ami = aws.getAmi({
            mostRecent: true,
            owners: ["0123456"], // my AWS account ID
        }, { provider: args.provider });

        let imageId = ami.imageId || ami.id;

        console.log('IMAGE ID: ' + imageId); 
//result: IMAGE ID: undefined

Can Pulumi handle configuring a VM it just created? IE installing apt packages, copying config files into it etc. Or is there a better tool suited for that?

hey! i'm trying to diagnose some very slow performance when updating multiple resources in kubernetes - i get a lot of hanging with no activity, and very slow resource modification times (~41 minutes to delete 137 resources). i've taken a trace, but i'm unable to view it in any browser, as it end up crashing my machine after using all my memory (32GB!) to load the trace. is anyone able to help or give some pointers? i'm happy to share the trace if required

I'm trying to clone a VM in vSphere and add an extra disk to it. Everything works except for adding the disk using

disks: [{ label: 'backups', size: 100 }]

which gives me the following error

vsphere:index/virtualMachine:VirtualMachine resource 'NFS1P' has a problem: "disk.0.attach": conflicts with datastore_cluster_id

Quick question. I’m throwing an error using

pulumi.log.error()

in ts, without a resource. When running up, the error shows up in preview yet Pulumi asks me if I want to deploy the changes. The docs says it should stop processing. Am I doing something wrong here?

error logs a fatal error to indicate that the tool should stop processing resource operations immediately.

https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/nodejs/pulumi/pulumi/log/#error

I started getting

error: connection error: desc = "transport: Error while dialing dial tcp 127.0.0.1:49758: connect: connection refused"

…

panic: fatal: An assertion has failed: Expected diff to not require deletion or replacement during Update of urn:pulumi:dev::<project>::aws:batch/computeEnvironment:ComputeEnvironment::gpu-worker-computeEnvironment-us-east-1

last night. I destroyed the stack, rebooted, backed out all changes to a point that was definitely working. I don’t know what else to try. Any ideas? A change to an AWS Batch Compute Environment almost always results in a replacement.

Hi guys! I'm trying to use the Systems Manager Parameter Store and creating a new parameter in pulumi like so.

export const param = new aws.ssm.Parameter("mySecVal", {
    type: "SecureString",
    value: 'Some Value'
})

However, when I try to get this value in my Lambda I I can't access by the name

mySecVal

AWS says the parameter doesn't exist. I can pull it if I use the pulumi name

mySecValue

. Is there a pulumi way of pulling this value by the name I gave it in my lambda or Is there anyway to have this parameter stored without the pulumi id that get's tacked on at the end.?

I have run into an odd pulumi question. When I try to run 

pulumi up

, I get

Diagnostics:
  aws:route53:Record (newDnsAlias-rw):
    error: Duplicate resource URN 'urn:pulumi:qa-red::eks-cluster::aws:route53/record:Record::newDnsAlias-rw'; try giving it a unique name

If I export the stack, that urn is not listed. Even if I just search for

newDnsAlias-rw

in the export, it is not found. If I try to delete it, it says it doesn't exist.

$ pulumi state delete 'urn:pulumi:qa-red::eks-cluster::aws:route53/record:Record::newDnsAlias-rw'
 warning: This command will edit your stack's state directly. Confirm? Yes
error: No such resource "urn:pulumi:qa-red::eks-cluster::aws:route53/record:Record::newDnsAlias-rw" exists in the current state

Pulumi v1.14.1 Node v12.16.1 aws cli 1.18.39 kubectl v1.18.1 package.json has

latest

flag for everything except typescript. Let me know if you need anything from

package-lock.json

. Writing everything in

typescript

. Any insights?

Did Pulumi support deployment of app or containers to cloud foundry instance.

What is the preferred method for waiting for a specific Resource status member to reach a certain state, before reporting that the Resource itself is provisioned completely?

@broad-dog-22463 Found a rather worrying bug: The output of pulumi up/preview tells me this:

error: no resource plugin 'gcp-v1.4.5' found in the workspace or on your $PATH, install the plugin using `pulumi plugin install resource gcp v1.4.5`

Now, when I run this command I run into a different error:

> pulumi plugin install resource gcp v1.4.5                                                                       ~/Graphmasters/pummeleinhorn/tests/basic_deployment(cloud-dns-records-108✗)@Nilss-MBP.fritz.box
[resource plugin gcp-1.4.5] installing

Is there a workaround? Greetings and have a nice day!

Hi, I’m pulling in secrets from config as follows:

const cfg = new pulumi.Config();
const dbUsername = cfg.requireSecret("db_username");
const dbPassword = cfg.requireSecret("db_password");

When I run

pulumi stack export --file stack.json

these details are appearing in plain text in the exported file, under an

outputs

node. Is that expected?

Does anyone by chance have provider binaries handy for https://github.com/ibrasho/pulumi-github?

Good evening, what's the Pulumi best practice with manging a lot of configuration? For example, we have 10+ Kubernetes clusters with different node types, size, disk configuration but common Pulumi code between them i.e for loop through the 10 different Kubernetes config. Looking at the Pulumi docs it says you should set it via the CLI using config set which adds it to the stack. I'd prefer to do it via code and store it in a Git Repo but I seem to be going down the root of using YAML to feed into Python Pulumi code which seems to be going against the Pulumi grain. Another example is a large series of NSG rules across different Azure subscriptions. What's the best way to handle common Pulumi code with large variation via configuration? Cheers!

How would you deploy an asset from GS bucket? E.g.

new pulumi.asset.RemoteArchive('<gs://example/file.zip>')

<-- complains that

gs://

is not supported

Also, how would you make Pulumi extract that archive before deploying?

Hi there, How are you supposed now to successfully access a component’s value passed to a custom

ComponentResource

(in my use case, I need a bucket’s name) ? I tried to define an arg like

aws.s3.bucket

,

string

,

pulumi.Input<string>

,

pulumi.Input<aws.s3.bucket>

, I tried to pass the whole bucket object or the bucket name directly, I tried to convert the input as an output, I tried to apply, interpolate, whatever, all I get when I want to use the name is :

Calling [toString] on an [Output<T>] is not supported.
    
    To get the value of an Output<T> as an Output<string> consider either:
    1: o.apply(v => `prefix${v}suffix`)
    2: pulumi.interpolate `prefix${v}suffix

Thanks

Hi all. With the pulumi_docker library for python, how do I declare env vars for a container?

envs

is of type pulumi.Input[list] but i would expect it to be of type pulumi.Input[dict] to take key:value pairs for the env vars? I appreciate any help

help, download plugins is too slow, my internet connection has 120Mb for download, but plugins take hours to download

why download plugins is too slow?

I'm thinking about doing crazy project in pulumi, please tell me that I'm a too much of a dreamer 🙂 The idea is to build a microservices infrastracture in GKE with dynamic dev envirment. Which means that we have 10+ microservices in diffrent repos written in JS and we want every developer to create his own environment . The idea is to have 2 type of pulumi configuration: 1. in repo

infrastracture

that will have 3 stacks (dev/staging/prod), each stack configures diffrent GCP project 2. in each repo it will be a folder called

infra

which will have pulumi configration for dynamic env. So if Joe wants environment he will trigger some script that will go across all repos and create env for him joe.env.company.dev where he can work on it Am I going a right direction? I'm afraid I'll stumble on something unexpected so I ask here...

Hi All, I am new to Pulumi . Any starter Pulumi video tutorials ? If so , Please share the link

I found the Pulumi TV channel on Youtube helpful (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2Dhyn4Ev52YSbcpfnfP0Mw)

There have been a bunch of video conferences in the last few weeks that have been useful also.
