I'm assuming this shouldn't be a problem but thought I'd check just in case: is there any issue with mixing languages across stacks? I'd like to use TypeScript but with a StackReference to a stack created using Go.

Does anyone have a good pattern for applying resources across multiple regions and multiple accounts in aws? I am spinning up security hub and config… ends up eating all the memory

important-appointment-55126

i just use a loop in a loop and create a provider for each (account, region) tuple and define the resources for each

Speed up GitHub Actions CICD with caching: what are the best practices? I've followed https://www.pulumi.com/docs/guides/continuous-delivery/github-actions/ and things are working fine (pulumi preview for PR and pulumi up for push to master). The challenge is pulumi preview is taking 6 minutes and pulumi up is taking 14 minutes, even for the most minor change (e.g. changing the desiredCount for a Fargate service (I'm using AWS ECS)). It seems that all the containers are built from scratch, and the task definitions are replaced, even when nothing changed. Advice is greatly appreciated!

Do any TypeScript pulumi users make re-usable modules for use across projects? Imagine an importable typescript module that bundles together a small reusable set of components (such as roles, IAM, services, etc) that can be used to speed up cross-company projects. However, as I've attempted this it feels challenging for a number of reasons (asynchronous nature of infra, tooling, etc) and I'm wondering if I'm misusing pulumi.

Hi friends - probably a bit of a different question this one. In short I want the developer productivity loop of Serverless Framework on my AWS Lambdas while expressing the rest of the infra of my AWS estate (cognito, postgres, vpc's, etc). Is there any published guidance/blogs on making the two work nicely together, or making Pulumi play well with another IaC tool in general? There will be some bi-directional overlap (for eg. a lambda that is attached to Cognito ConfirmSignUp trigger) so wondering how to go about that

HI all. I upgraded to the latest version and the verbose output is not working, i.e. "-v=9" doesn't show any additional output. What can I do?

If I have Pulumi attaching an ALB/NLB to each of 3 Fargate containers, does that mean I'm paying ~$60/mo just for the load balancers in my test/staging environment?

Also, I imported an ACM certificate into the stack and used

protect

due to the account limit of 20 certs, and now I can't delete the resources since they depend on the certificate 😬 Is it possible to say "Delete everything in the stack but X"?

Is there a way (I'm thinking ResourceOptions) to specify that a resource should always be replaced, not updated?

Hi. How do we declare and assign a value to a new

pulumi.Input

variable?

damp-table-85095

09/20/2020, 12:03 AM

Are there any examples I could look at? I want to populate this variable with an asynchronous value.

damp-table-85095

I tried converting a

Promise<string>

to an

Input<string>

but couldn't figure it out.

damp-table-85095

09/20/2020, 2:12 AM

I stand corrected. I was declaring a function that returned a Promise instead of a Promise. My mistake.

Can we have a channel dedicated for github, more specifically Github Actions? Apparently the docker image for github actions doesn't support NodeJS as it keeps failing and a PR is still in progress to fix this https://github.com/pulumi/actions/pull/29 Anyone has an experience with using Github Actions to deploy a nodejs app?

I need to pass many

env

variables to container. Is there any way I can define env variables as an array in yaml file and loop through then in my typescript file instead of coding each variable. This is what I have today in yaml

config:
  pro:key1:value1
  pro:key2:value2

and this is how I am using them in my typescript file

env: [
    {
      name: "key1",
      value: config.get("key1")
    },
    {
      name: "key2",
      value: config.get("key2")
    },

This works fine but I have 30+ parameters and want the create env using loop instead of hardcoding every one in ts file any help? Something like

env: [
    array.forEach((param :string) => {
        const splitString = param.split(":");
        {
            name: splitString[0],
            value: splitString[1]
        }
    })
],

Hi! This may be a newb question, but is there a way to resolve an Ouput (specifically, a StackReference.get_ouput result) to it's value at runtime? I'm writing a simple security group helper that needs to know if the input is a security_group or a cidr_block. I'd like to simply test if the first letter of the string is a digit or 's' (as-in 'sg-XXXXXX').

I'm having difficulties with my migration. I've moved resources from several small projects into one large one, mostly using the

import

opt. There have been a few changes on the way, most of which I've resolved using

pulumi refresh

. Two that haven't yet been resolved are: 1. An IAM role created without a name or namePrefix, which has defaulted to using namePrefix = Pulumi name. In order to import it, I had to temporarily add the name property with its actual name. I now want to go back to using either the default or namePrefix. How do I get Pulumi to recognize that changing

name: "myprefix-984ac6"

namePrefix: "myprefix"

is no changed? I'm prepared to edit the state if needed. 2. My Directory was created with a password, which I'm now ignoring via

ignoreChanges

(because I want to be able to change the password outside of Pulumi). If I leave ignoreChanges in, then Pulumi reports "resource 'dirname' has a problem: Missing required property 'password'". Are either of these resolvable?

Hi all, I'm having an issue with doing a lookup of a floatingIP and creating an association. The floating ip has been created previously and will not be changed (in this scenario) - so I only want to do the lookup and assoc with a bastion host

famous-twilight-87777

09/21/2020, 7:11 AM

trying to assoc by id:

famous-twilight-87777

09/21/2020, 7:11 AM

let assoc_bastion_ip = new os.networking.FloatingIpAssociate("associate_bastion_fip", {
    floatingIp: bastion_ip.then(ip  => ip.id),
    portId: bastion.id
});

famous-twilight-87777

09/21/2020, 7:11 AM

leads to this

famous-twilight-87777

09/21/2020, 7:12 AM

Diagnostics:
  openstack:networking:FloatingIpAssociate (associate_bastion_fip):
    error: Unable to get ID of openstack_networking_floatingip_associate_v2 floating_ip 41142f29-54b9-44a7-bb33-8e6581634aa7: there are no openstack_networking_floatingip_v2 with 41142f29-54b9-44a7-bb33-8e6581634aa7 IP

famous-twilight-87777

09/21/2020, 7:13 AM

but if I try to use the address of the floating ip..

famous-twilight-87777

09/21/2020, 7:13 AM

floatingIp: bastion_ip.then(ip => ip.address)

famous-twilight-87777

09/21/2020, 7:14 AM

this doesn't work as the Promise could return an undefined which cannot be used as input.

hello everybody 👋 just wondering if there is a way for Pulumi to forget about a resource? we would like that resource to be still physically there but we don't want it in that stack anymore

broad-helmet-79436

you can delete the resource from your state file https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/cli/pulumi_state_delete/

if you also remove your code declaring the resource, it will be as if Pulumi never knew about it

nutritious-shampoo-16116

09/21/2020, 10:43 AM

cool, thanks!

little-cartoon-10569

09/21/2020, 10:09 PM

If you remove the code declaring the resources without removing it from the state file, won't Pulumi detect the difference and offer to delete it? That's what it does when I try it, and it's what I'd expect it to do.

curved-dress-32683

09/22/2020, 1:17 AM

Yes, you are right. The resource has to be deleted first from the state and then from the code.
