    So I'm using the Rancher2 Provider and 
    getCluster
    returns a promise. I'm then trying to use 
    getProject
    with cluster id via 
    cluster.then(cluster => cluster.id)
    however I get an error saying 
    Error: Promises cannot be passed in as arguments to a data source call.
    How am I supposed to get around that?

    One thing which is not clear to me in unit testing Pulumi infra is how to mimic an update of existing infra. How can I mimic in a unit test a certain state as starting point, create my infra and validate the proposed change set? Is it possible?

    Is there a way to detect a change in code? I need to pass new and old credentials as env to ensure the app reconfigures itself to use the new credentials.

    Where is the format of the "import" string documented? e.g.: for a namespaced resource in Kubernetes is it: Given resource $NAME, $KIND, and namespace as $SPACE for readability. Namespaced resources: • 
    $NAME
    aka 
    istio-citadel
    - the name of the resource • 
    $KIND/$NAME
    aka 
    deployment.apps/istio-citadel
    - the resource kind and name • 
    $SPACE/NAME
    aka 
    istio-system/istio-citadel
    - the namespace and name of the resource (omitting the resource kind) Non-namespaced resources: • 
    $NAME
    aka 
    istio-citadel
    - the name of the resource • 
    $KIND/$NAME
    aka 
    deployment.apps/istio-citadel
    - the resource kind and name

    Further, how does that interplay with Helm Charts? Do I declare 
    { import: '???' }
    on the chart, or do I use per-yaml resource transformations?

    Okay, I think I've answered that question by just trying a bunch of things, leaving me with more questions! 1. Is it possible to pass a dynamic (
    Input/Output
    ) value to the 
    import
    property? I am able to pass an Input/Output to the 
    metadata.name
    and 
    metadata.namespace
    into the object args, but I cannot then reference said name and namespace in the 
    import
    arg? 2. Is it possible to pass in a value for 
    opts: { import: ??? }
    that automatically determines what to import? For Kubernetes resources where the name and namespace are part of the resource itself, that is, for any given object defining 
    { metadata: ObjectMeta }
    we can determine the ID deterministically, so having to repeat it seems un-DRY.

    This is all an XY Problem though, the root problem is: I have a helm chart (ugh) that sometimes hangs (double ugh!) when I try to Pulumi deploy it, and when it hangs it doesn't serialize the state and checkpoints back. This then puts me in a really bad state because I have a bunch of dangling resources that I can't import correctly. How do I handle this?

    Are there any plans to create utilities in Pulumi to help with authoring helm charts? It would be amazing to write charts using code rather than YAML + go templates.

    Hi! After 2.0 update i'm having troubles managing AWS named profiles. Since in new versions eks cluster access is controlled with a named profile (that's a great thing!). Problem is, that in development env I have a named profile and in CI/CD [github action] a default one. When updating from dev machine profile name is stored in the resource description and CICD pipeline is fails, because it's on a default profile. One of the solutions i'm thinking about is to write ~/.aws/credentials on CICD that has a same profile, but that seams like doing something wrong.. am I missing something here, is there some config variable to allow eks access on a default profile in a github action?

    hi, maybe I missed something, but is there a way to set/import/load config/secret values in bulk? I'm asking because my playground project is getting more and more configuration and secret values and creating a new stack is getting annoying. Or can I maybe copy config/secets from another stack? I also startet to use nested config values. Is there no way to set the whole complex config value from e.g. a JSON string?

    Just checked policy-packs for the first time. Seems really promising 👍 1. Can you “acknowledge” a CrossGuard-policy, 
    enforcementLevel: "advisory"
    , directly at the resource? To get this check out of the list of policy violations. Similar like 
    nolint
    flags. 2. How can you check if a value is a secret value, i.e. encrypted in the stack? Just read that secrets are unencrypted in policy-pack checks.

    Hi, can I control the auto-naming at all? When I create an azure Resource Group using C# it is taking the name (div-proj-rg) and appending the auto-name straight to it so I end up with div-proj-rgXYZ (where XYZ is the random part). I'd like to force it to stick a - in so I get div-proj-rg-XYZ Cheers Alan

Hi @eager-pillow-75917, You should provide us a snippet of your code in order to help you with. This error usually means what it says, your are not consuming the 
Output
properly.
w

wonderful-dog-9045

04/23/2020, 12:14 PM
that's because the value is not resolved yet (it will be resolved at a later stage).
So if you value is on variable 
x
you can manipulate it with with 
x.apply(x => doSomethingWithX(x))

Thanks Garik.
But hey, the documentation is wrong, then.
this is basically what I am trying to do… 
import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes";
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
const env = pulumi.getStack();
const infra = new pulumi.StackReference(`acmecorp/infra/${env}`);
const provider = new k8s.Provider("k8s", { kubeconfig: infra.getOutput("kubeConfig") });
const service = new k8s.core.v1.Service(..., { provider: provider });
I got this snippet from https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/organizing-stacks-projects/#inter-stack-dependencies
If I ` 
infra.getOutput("kubeConfig")
like it is in the documentation, I get the above error.
w

wonderful-dog-9045

04/23/2020, 12:26 PM
ok, that depends on how you are using the return value of 
infra.getOutput()
e

eager-pillow-75917

04/23/2020, 12:27 PM
I had to do something like this to make it work. 
const infra = new pulumi.StackReference("acmecorp/infra/${env}");

export const kubeConfig = infra.getOutput("kubeConfig");
let provider;
kubeConfig.apply(clusterNameOutput => {
  bucket = new k8s.Provider("k8s", { kubeconfig: kubeConfig });
});
no it doesnt man
the documentation is just wrong
I am using an output as a value in a new resource just like in the documentation and it just does not work
to be fair, just like a number of other things are also misleading in the docs

@eager-pillow-75917 if you provide the whole exact code you are using, someone can actually help you on your context. What the doc says works. I have several clusters doing exactly that.
What is the code of your stack exporting the 
kubeConfig
?
e

eager-pillow-75917

04/23/2020, 2:10 PM
this is how I did it. (the kubeconfig I was using the same xample as the documentation) 
const infra = new pulumi.StackReference("infra-staging");

export const clusterNameOutput = infra.getOutput("stagingClusterName");

clusterNameOutput.apply(clusterNameOutput => {
  const bucket = new gcp.storage.Bucket(`my-test-bucket-${clusterNameOutput}`)
});
but the documentation for inter stack dependency does not say anything about the apply method and only uses getOutput
f

faint-motherboard-95438

04/23/2020, 2:13 PM
@eager-pillow-75917 I would be interested in what’s happening in the stack 
infra-staging
exporting your 
stagingClusterName
. But there’s already a problem in your code here: you shouldn’t try to use outputs in the name of a component, that should be a static string.
e

eager-pillow-75917

04/23/2020, 2:15 PM
let´s try to abstract the issue here man
that was just the simplest example I could think of
I am dont need a bucket
this is just an exaple
read the first thing I sent this morning
I need to use an output as a value in another resource.

faint-motherboard-95438

04/23/2020, 2:28 PM
You know I’m actually trying to help you here, this is a community and we all give our time freely. We don’t work on “abstract”. The doc and examples work. So if you have an issue with your code that’s exactly where the problem resides, not on an “abstract” example of yours. So take it easy “man”. So, on an “asbtract” way of doing things, based on what you provided this morning, giving your 
infra-staging
creates a cluster and exports the config like this: 
export const { kubeconfig } = cluster
You can then do somewhere else something like this: 
const infraStack = new pulumi.StackReference('infra-staging')

const k8sProvider = new k8s.Provider('k8s-provider', {
  kubeconfig: infraStack.getOutput('kubeconfig')
})

const myNamespace = new k8s.core.v1.Namespace('whatever', {}, { provider: k8sProvider })
