Is there a way to get a more comprehensive error message? My case I am deploying a lambda function and getting an error which I am guessing is from the AWS API. Pulumi in this case shows me the following error

Diagnostics:
  pulumi:pulumi:Stack (lambda-func-auth-send-welcome-email-development):
    error: update failed
 
  aws:lambda:Function (auth-send-welcome-email):
    error: 1 error occurred:
        * error creating Lambda Function: ValidationException:
        status code: 400, request id: f88cc8e4-4096-46d3-b03d-f708669aafa3

In my opinion this is not enough, and I am pretty sure AWS API returns an error message with more details on exactly the reason of this exception happening that is unique to my request. It is difficult to debug where things went wrong. Correct me If I am wrong about my assumption..

Hi, quick question, is it possible to share providers (or provider arguments i.e.

ProviderArgs

) between stacks? If I export a provider from one stack and access it with another via

StackReference

I seem to get it as a

Promise<Provider>

but this doesn’t let me actually use it as a

Provider

(Typescript)

Hi! Is there a way to pass arguments to

pulumi init

? Im using python, and would like to have code like this in my `__main.py__`:

import pulumi_gcp as gcp
import pulumi

import argparse


parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument("-m", "--machine-type",help="Specify GCP machine type", default="n1-standard-1")
args = parser.parse_args()

default = gcp.compute.Instance("ubuntu-1804",
     [..]
    machine_type=args.machine_type,
      [..]

    )

This way,

machine_type

could become an argument, and of course the same can be applied to many other things, like disk sizes and so on, without touching the code. How can achieve this effect?

Hi! It would be a "nice to have" to be able to pre-select eg. "Custom" and "C#" on https://www.pulumi.com/arm2pulumi/ with query parameters. Would save me a few seconds each I'm firing up the converter to convert my azure templates 🙂

In a Pulumi project setup, is it possible to intercept or reconfigure the lookup to the resource provider plugin(s)? Experimenting a bit with a certain test setup.

Hi guys 🙂 I am trying to debug some error when deploying a Helm chart, but the verbose output (e.g. -v=9) doesn't do anything. Pulumi 2.16.2. Any idea? I am on macOS Big Sur if that's relevant

NVM I see the verbose output with

--logtostderr

Hi folks, does pulumi have a similar concept to AWS profiles? I'm finding I need to log into two separate accounts (work vs etc) and... well.. things can get messy. It seems

pulumi login

is a machine wide thing?

Why doesn't Pulumi have an Instagram account?

mm.. lots of pictures of Internet plumbing doing exactly what it’s supposed to 🙂 🔥

Hi everyone, i have a noob doubt, how do you do to use in two projects the same vpc?

- task: Pulumi@1
      inputs:
        azureSubscription: 'Test (bla-bla)'
        command: "up"
        cwd: "MyProject.Infrastructure/"
        stack: 'dev'
        args: '--yes'
    - script:
        echo "##vso[task.setvariable variable=test;isOutput=true]$(pulumi stack output test)"
      displayName: 'Set stack outputs as variables'
      name: 'pulumi'
    - bash: |
        echo "Using an input-macro works: $(test)"

Hi peeps, a question. If I run

pulumi stack output test

it gives me the output I'm expecting, and I can see in the logs that the pulumi outputs are correctly being registered

but when I try to output them it seems like they're not being set properly

any thoughts?

ok, the script that outputs the variables needs to be in the correct workingDirectory (which in this case is MyProject.Infrastructure)

good evening, I am trying to create a Kubs

PersistentVolumeClaim

object and then refer its name in another object (a

CronJob

)

sadly I can't refer to the

resource_name

I used because Pulumi changes names... which is fine. But how to get the name? I the

.id

field of the resource almost get me there but it includes the namespace in there. I just want the "new" name.

One last question: we did our Docker image build using a deploy.sh script before, and we could get some great build performance using the simple

--cache-from

argument when calling

docker build .

. We'd usually do something like

--cache-from=<http://registry.com/dir/image:latest|registry.com/dir/image:latest>

and then update the latest tag to the newly built and pushed image.

Right now I am using

class Image(pulumi.ComponentResource)

which has nothing that leverages caching

any idea on leveraging this --cache-from property while keep Pulumi in charge of our image building?

Kinda curious, I used pulumi to bootstrap an aws typescript project and when it didn’t find my credentials the error included a link to a terraform help guide, heh. Are some pieces of pulumi built on top of terraform?

Pulumi thinks it needs to replace my

aws:ecs:TaskDefinition

on every

up

run even though nothing has changed. Looking at the diff output for the containerDefinitions parameter on the TaskDefinition, I can see the only difference is on both my containers,

mountPoints

,

portMappings

,

user

, and

volumesFrom

currently exist as empty arrays (except user which is

"0"

) and do not exist in the desired TaskDefinition. I am not setting these properties.

Does the

--show-reads

property not work correctly for diffs? Whenever I do a

preview --diff

it shows reads without that flag set.

Hi all, is it possible to create a single stack that spans multiple cloud environments? I need to create a vpn connection between AWS and Azure. Would be nice if I could put the code for both ends of this setup in a single stack.

Can one shorten the random suffix on the resource names? Maybe with

ResourceTransformations

(dotnet azure sdk)? Thanks

I’m having a real challenge figuring out the right way to validate a certificate which has multiple alternative names - That will result in multiple DNS validation records being generated.. i think this will handle that, but i want the resulting

CertificateValidation

resource to be used in a

Depends

later in the program so that the Cloudfront CDN isn’t created before validation is complete…

s.cert.DomainValidationOptions.ApplyT(func(opts []acm.CertificateDomainValidationOption) (*acm.CertificateValidation, error) {
                var fqdns pulumi.StringArray
                for i, opt := range opts {
                        certValidationDomain, err := route53.NewRecord(ctx, fmt.Sprintf("%s-%d-validation", s.hostname, i), &route53.RecordArgs{
                                Name:    pulumi.String(*opt.ResourceRecordName),
                                Type:    pulumi.String(*opt.ResourceRecordType),
                                Records: pulumi.StringArray{pulumi.String(*opt.ResourceRecordValue)},
                                ZoneId:  s.zoneId, // zone.ID(),
                                Ttl:     <http://pulumi.Int|pulumi.Int>(600),
                        })
                        if err != nil {
                                return nil, fmt.Errorf("create route53 validation record failed: %v", err)
                        }
                        fqdns = append(fqdns, certValidationDomain.Fqdn)
                }

                return acm.NewCertificateValidation(ctx, "certValidation", &acm.CertificateValidationArgs{
                        CertificateArn:        s.cert.Arn,
                        ValidationRecordFqdns: fqdns,
                }, pulumi.Provider(s.usEast1))
        })

i can have it return

CertificateArn

but

ApplyString

converts that

StringOutput

to an

AnyOutput

it appears, which i can’t then use as the input for creating the distribution

I've got an issue where I'm trying to specify

delete_before_replace

but Pulumi seems to be ignoring that advice and still trying to create the resource before deleting the original. In this case it's a Vault Mount that is part of a component resource. I've tried passing the resource options to the entire component, and to just the Mount resource with no luck.

Nevermind, I figured out what my issue was. I had changed the URN prefix for the component resource.
