Interesting... Hashicorp even copied the concept of the Stack. https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/cdk-for-terraform-enabling-python-and-typescript-support/

Quick Question. I see that for Pulumi, Python and other languages were available initially and then .Net was added later. Does anyone see any challenges specific to using .NET for aws Pulumi because it might not be as mature a language for Pulumi? Is aws-python template or another language template a clear better choice when it comes to Pulumi capabilities vis-à-vis aws? we are a .Net shop but if there is a very clear choice in another language, then would like to know

👋 how does one go about upgrading the underlying tf module in an integration and build it?

when passing opts to ComponentResource I would expect all underlying resources and ComponentResource implementations to inherit them, but I don't see it happens that way. Am I supposed to pass them explicitly to entire chain?

Hello everyone, I'm glad to begin my steps with this beautiful framework! I've read several articles, guides and documentations, alongside video tutorials with pulumi and I'm almost ready to put my hands on it. Some things, though, still not so clear, and I've posted a question in SO about it. If someone could help me there I would appreciate a lot. Thank you! How can I bind my existing programs to Pulumi?

Hey guys, checking the docs, i saw some python examples have an extra

i.e: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/github/branchprotection/ (and i think lots of others are the same) Checking on the source (https://github.com/pulumi/docs/blob/d1d22789dad6609d4a7336a9d41568a14a5064be/content/docs/reference/pkg/github/branchprotection.md) seems like this are generated by a bot? I was going to try and open PR fixing this, but not sure if is a problem in the automation somewhere, of if I should open the PR

I'm trying to set a "onPut" event trigger for a bucket using python, but I couldn't find any method like the one for Nodejs, also I've looked in the docs but couldn't find this info. Does someone know how to accomplish this? (I'm looking at this example)

when using 3rd party npm inside lambda that doesn't have typings via require("") it's not recognized as dependency in serialized lambda function. Is that expected behavior? Should I generate typings for such modules or add them explicitly as lambda layer?

Just a suggestion, if you use pulumi.interpolate in a string concatenation operation along with a normal string it produces undesired result and can be very hard to debug like the image below. The documentation is not clear enough and for someone like me who is new to pulumi it can become a real pain. So pulumi.interpolate should either throw an error is used in the incorrect way or the documentation should have a note mentioning this very clearly. I hope I have not missed any part of the documentation.

Should I always use "pulumi.concat()" when using string resources gotten from the cloud? For example, if I get a bucket name from SSM and want to create a bucket with that name:

Copy code

const aws = require("@pulumi/aws");

const pictures_bucket_name: String = aws.ssm.getParameter("pictures_bucket")

const pictures_bucket = new aws.s3.Bucket(pictures_bucket_name+"_resource", {
    bucket: pictures_bucket_name
})

So, in the 'name' parameter of the bucket should I use 'pulumi.concat(pictures_bucket_name, "_resource")' or just that native string concatenation is ok? Update: I think I got it, but if someone could provide a validation to way I'm saying I would appreciate: Output objects HAS to be used when I retrieve resources from the cloud and they might be automatically created by some method that returns Output objects of a given resource or I might have to wrap values by hand in an Output object (using

pulumi.output()

), but there are two main moments in which I will use these values wrapped by an Output object: "deploy-time" and runtime. If I want to manipulate the value wrapped by the Output object during deploy-time, when things may not be yet defined and values may not exist yet, then I must use a Promise-like approach with

Output<T>.apply(f: T -> G)

and all resource-method parameters will accept this transformed Output as a valid argument. Or, in some cases (like native Pulumi classes) I may skip the

apply()

step and just retrieve the expected value with

Output<T>.some_attribute

. If I want to use the value wrapped by the Output object during runtime, then I must call the

Output<T>.get()

method to retrieve the actual

Object<T>

. Sorry if the question is not well formulated or seems like lack of effort in finding documentation, I've read a lot of it but I'm missing use cases and examples.

just out of curiosity, has Pulumi grown any better support for bare metal deployment? amusingly when I Google "pulumi bare metal" the first result is my Hacker News comment on the initial release lamenting the lack of bare metal support 🙂

Guys, I'm using typescript to build a simple bucket with a trigger on it, that calls a "magic lambda" and puts a thumbnail in another bucket, but every time the lambda fails and the output in the CloudWatch logs show this error:

Copy code

{
  "errorType": "Runtime.ImportModuleError",
  "errorMessage": "Error: Cannot find module '@pulumi/aws/s3/index.js'\nRequire stack:\n- /var/task/__index.js\n- /var/runtime/UserFunction.js\n- /var/runtime/index.js",
