Hello everyone, I just started using Pulumi. The coolest DevOps tool I've seen so far. Glad to join the community.

welcome!

Thanks!

I am blown away with the depth and breadth of Pulumi, the awesome speakers and presenters and the Cloud Engineering Summit in general - Great job, and thank you!

Any idea what this error is talking about?

error: Exception calling application: Object of type Unknown is not JSON serializable

Debug logging doesn't really help.

Hello 👋 first day user here. I just created a S3 bucket with

pulumi up

. I am evaluating Pulumi to use it inside the reconciliation loop of a K8s controller. Do you think this is a good use case for it?

Hi all, would appreciate any reference or direction to solve an issue, in which pulumi recreates a resource (dynamodb global secondary index) on every deployment again and again and that takes a very long time. Is there a way to debug why the state isn't being stored or used and why pulumi recreates the index over and over again?

Hi Folks, I think it was mentioned yesterday in the summit, that there will be a CLI of sorts for importing existing assets, is there anything public that can be shared about this?

for ‘DigitalOcean k8s’ I’m assuming it’s just a regular kubenetes API call

anyone here, able to help get one on the github CodeSpaces beta, or did that ship sail already?

Hey folks--I have a Rancher cluster that's properly configured, up, reachable, etc. Yet when I try to use the rancher2 integration, I'm getting back a "rancher is not ready". I've configured the rancher url, access key, and secret key

Hi, I'm using Pulumi with AWS and I always keep everything (plugins, libraries) up to date. But I realise that Pulumi is downloading both 2.x and 3.x plugins. Even if I delete the 2.x plugin it always gets downloaded. Considering that I have the 3.x plugin already there, why would this happen? I'm just trying to understand this behaviour.

I seem to have gotten into a bad state after doing a

pulumi up

, and I don’t know how to get out of it… 1. My k8s deployments were running fine. 2. Run

pulumi up

with a new container image for my deployment. Pods get into crash loop and deployment fails. 3. Subsequent

pulumi up

commands always fail with

error: transport is closing

. Not very informative error… I’ve tried

pulumi refresh

and also running

up

with

--logtostderr -v=7

, but I don’t see anything useful

Is it a know issue that init a stack with azure key vault takes a long time or hangs? Or am I doing something wrong? Using a command like:

pulumi stack init --secrets-provider="<azurekeyvault://mykeyvaul.vault.azure.net/keys/mykeyname>" Dev

I get the message that the stack was created, but then it stops for some reason.

Looking for any docs, samples, etc. on how to implement a CustomResource. I read the Programming Model, but I was hoping for something lower level (i.e. code).

Hi all, is there a way to specify the latest version of the plugin to use? I've updated python and it's still trying to use an old version.

Diagnostics:
  pulumi:providers:vsphere (default_2_8_0):
    error: no resource plugin 'vsphere-v2.8.0' found in the workspace or on your $PATH, install the plugin using `pulumi plugin install resource vsphere v2.8.0`

How can I force it to use

2.10.1

pulumi plugin ls
NAME     KIND      VERSION  SIZE   INSTALLED    LAST USED
vsphere  resource  2.10.1   63 MB  6 hours ago  6 hours ago

TOTAL plugin cache size: 63 MB

I had a protected resource and now I have set

protect=False

but it still refuses to delete the protected resource.

Hey everyone, do you know of an example of using Pulumi to build a local Docker image and deploy it to a local K8s? No cloud involve.

This might sound like a stupid question, but not sure. Let's say we are using azure blob storage to store the state so we use that to

--cloud-url

to log in, and I have also set all the azure config with

pulumi config set azure:...

. When we then execute pulumi, what credentials are used? Is it the credentials that I set using

pulumi config set azure:..

or is it some other credentials? For me it sort of make sense it it where two different set of credentials, since one is used to authenticate against the pulumi state and keyvault one might use, but the config you set with

pulumi config set azure:...

is the credentials you use for actual provisioning of resources.

I was on the dotnet documentation for AWS Glue and noticed that in the code examples that the character sets and entity sets are not properly parsed out

using Pulumi;
using Aws = Pulumi.Aws;

class MyStack : Stack
{
public MyStack()
{
    var awsGlueCatalogDatabase = new Aws.Glue.CatalogDatabase("awsGlueCatalogDatabase", new Aws.Glue.CatalogDatabaseArgs
    {
        Name = "MyCatalogDatabase",
    });
}

}

hi all, i’m new to pulumi and i was wondering is it possible to keep the state under version control, or is it a bad idea?

I do that on some projects where the IaC is not run often, sensitive contents should be encrypted with the password

sure, in private repository, we did something similar with terraform back in the days, hence i was thinking doing this with pulumi as well, maybe. thanks for your response.

I would have used the S3 backend but its incredibly slow.

Speaking of S3, there's apparently some real bugginess with the handling of BucketObject's. Trying to sync it with a local folder has unexpected side effects like objects not being overwritten, objects not being deleted - I seem to have sorta hacked a fix together by doing pulumi up with the assets ignored before the real pulumi up, but apparently some assets are still not deleted.

It seems like NodePools don't de-provision properly. Most resources seem to accept a 404 from the API as indicating a resource has been deleted successfully, NodePools on GKE don't

Has anyone run into a

Duplicate resource URN

for their stack? For context, I am running

--refresh

in my

pulumi up

CI workflow.

<PROJECT-NAME>-<STACK-NAME> (pulumi:pulumi:Stack)
error: Duplicate resource URN 'urn:pulumi:<STACK-NAME>::<PROJECT-NAME>::pulumi:pulumi:Stack::<PROJECT-NAME>-<STACK-NAME>'; try giving it a unique name

Is there a way to connect to Pulumi from Gatling Load Tests?

For a Pulumi employee: is it possible to enable issue tracking on the Random provider, please? https://github.com/pulumi/terraform-provider-random
