Hey o/ I’m trying to write my stack outputs to variables on azure devops pipelines. The deployment using the devops pulumi task works nice, but after that I run a shell script

pulumi login
pulumi stack select dev

echo "##vso[task.setvariable variable=webapp.billingApi]$(pulumi stack output billingApi)"

and the stack cannot be found. I set the same working directory as in the pulumi task.

2020-11-12T12:05:15.7625612Z Logged in to xxx as vsts (azblob://***-infrastructure)
2020-11-12T12:05:16.1752240Z error: no stack named 'dev' found
2020-11-12T12:05:16.2685326Z error: no stack selected; please use `pulumi stack select` to choose one

How can I figure out whats wrong? I don’t see any error. Even in verbose output. My state is stored in an azure blob storage container

Is there a way for Pulumi to parse and use Terraform

tf.json

files? Or even

.tf

? That could help transitioning by just using the Pulumi CLI referencing existing Terraform code. I appreciate maintaining something that works with the HCL language is a big overhead, but, at least supporting

tf.json

should be more trivial. Also, as Pulumi has already

tf2pulumi

, probably part of the work of parsing HCL is already there.

👋 hello everyone! We are evaluating Pulumi to migrate from TF and we are running into what should be a trivial issue and probably are missing something obvious. We are using AWS Batch and are trying to create a Job Definition, which requires a template literal to define properties of an ECS container. Inside this we need to reference an ECR repository dynamically in the definition:

const ecrRepository = new aws.ecr.Repository('batch-services-pulumi', {
  name: 'batch-services-pulumi',
  imageScanningConfiguration: {
    scanOnPush: true,
  },
  imageTagMutability: 'MUTABLE',
});

const batchJobDefinition = new aws.batch.JobDefinition(
  'image_processor_pulumi',
  {
    name: 'image_processor_job_definition_pulumi',
    retryStrategy: { attempts: 3 },
    timeout: { attemptDurationSeconds: 1200 },
    containerProperties: `{
    "command": [ "blah" ],
    "image": "${ecrRepository.repositoryUrl}",
    "memory": 1024,
    "vcpus": 1,
    "otherprops" ...
}
`,
    type: 'container',
  },
  {
    dependsOn: [ecrRepository],
  },
);

The template literal is throwing an error when using

pulumi preview

error: aws:batch/jobDefinition:JobDefinition resource 'image_processor_pulumi' has a problem: AWS Batch Job container_properties is invalid: Error decoding JSON: invalid character '\n' in string literal

after debugging, it looks like its applying this value

{
        "command": [ "blah" ],
        "image": 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`
    See <https://pulumi.io/help/outputs> for more details.
    This function may throw in a future version of @pulumi/pulumi.,
        "memory": 1024,
        "vcpus": 1,
        morestuff ...
}

we tried to use apply and interpolate to formate and that seems to work outside of the template literal, but not when its applied inside. Any help would be appreciated (this is our last hurdle to get a working POC

quick question, I am looking for a way in Pulumi to extract the current branch at runtime, but couldnt find any documentation on this. As this information is also available in the Pulumi Webfrontend I was hoping that there are APIs available...

I have a stack named github and I'm trying to set a config option as

github:token

; it keeps showing up as

token

- anything else (foo:bar) will show as such... is this a bug?

I just wanna say; using Pulumi is so awesome. I haven't had this much fun working in forever. Cheers Pulumi team

Is there a roadmap for full-fledged providers in languages other than Go ? Dynamic Providers are great for quick-n-dirty and small projects, but as I'm trying to implement bigger providers (e.g. AWS products that don't have a TF provider, Snowflake, etc.) and in a clean, open-source fashion... I feel like I firstly need to develop the Terraform provider then the Pulumi wrapper on top of it, which is tedious Would be so epic to code a proper provider with a nice repo structure, all in Python 🐍

Also, what is the recommended way to extend an existing Provider with our own Dynamic Provider ? My use-case here is that I'm trying to implement AWS Pinpoint Journeys, and the Pinpoint provider doesn't have them in Terraform... but the Python SDK

boto3

definitely has them ! I kinda wonder how I can interact with the

pulumi_aws.Provider

instance to share credentials and stuff : should I declare it as a dependency of my

dynamic.Resource

? If so, what should be the link between the

pulumi_aws.Provider

and my

dynamic.Provider

? We've achieved some working examples with my team but I'm not quite satisfied with it : most of the time we ended up with unstable stacks and locked states (had to

pulumi stack export/import

)

Quick question: does Pulumi version v2.13.2 support the deployment of net5.0 framework deployments to Azure?

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net5.0</TargetFramework>
    <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Pulumi.Azure" Version="3.*" />
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>

hello folks, is it possible to export nat_ip from pulumi? I need to setup GCE Instance using pulumi and pass nat_ip to other tools in my build pipeline. I have already tried to achieve it with terraform and stuck with it. I would like to use Type Script together with pulumi. Many thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Docs here https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/digitalocean/sshkey/#inputs say...

The public key. If this is a file, it can be read using the file interpolation function

where can I find this "file interpolation function"?

I have a problem doing a volume attachment on DigitalOcean... the droplet output

id

is

str

type: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/digitalocean/droplet/#id_python but the

droplet_id

input for the volume attachment is `int`: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/digitalocean/volumeattachment/#droplet_id_python

pulumi up

fails with:

VolumeAttachment resource 'pgb-dokku-db-vol-attachment' has a problem: Attribute must be a whole number, got 216866671

if I try to cast the output id as

int(droplet.id)

(in python) I get:

TypeError: int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a number, not 'Output'

is there a workaround?

DigitalOcean API docs give return type of created droplet id as `int`: https://developers.digitalocean.com/documentation/v2/#droplets

For this you will need to run an apply - this allows you to control the cast when the promise resolves In JavaScript I would do this as .id.apply(id => parseInt(id))

is it a bug? seems like the droplet resource has wrong return type

but thanks, I was looking for something like apply

It’s kinda a bug kinda not - it’s what comes back from the generated code upstream :/

You are correct that it’s not a great experience here

ok, found the apply docs now https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/programming-model/#apply

Hello 👋 I use Pulumi for all infrastructure, including K8S. I am seeing a pattern with our current configuration where canary releases are filling up our git history (the way it works; we release, that also triggers a commit in our infrastructure repository to update the version). What I’d like to do instead of commiting each time is just update that specific piece of infrastructure, without needing the whole infra repository. Like we do with kubectl – just patch it. Is there anything like that available within Pulumi, or do I have to find something outside of Pulumi for those cases?

Is there a general way within the pulumi UI to see stack differences?

Hi all, I am new to pulumi. I am using it to deploy an AWS stack. Has anyone experience that when you create an s3 object and use it for lambda function, in the first try to create the lambda function, it complains that object does not exists. The next time I run "pulumi up" it is fine.

"Error occurred while GetObject. S3 Error Code: NoSuchKey. S3 Error Message: The specified key does not exist."

Hey guys, We're using Pulumi pretty extensively in our company. Regarding configuration:

Where do you keep your initial configuration? Is your secret manager/vault the only thing that's defined and handled locally?

Or your CI/CD also creates/starts the vault, with some sort of a funny circular approach (the CI/CD uses secrets from the vault which is created/updated/destroyed by the CI/CD)

Hi, sometimes pulumi fails to update managed instance group in GCP, it fails on deleting old instance template while replacing it with

Hello, I am having trouble adding a user from my github-backed organization. The problem may have started when we enabled SSO in github. The error is:

User is not a member of Pulumi organization’s backing identity provider.

The user appears in the list, I click +, get above message. Any ideas? Thanks.

@broad-dog-22463 Do you know when the latest Rancher2 provider will be released? There was a bunch of fixes in the v1.10.6 release that we would like to start using.
