The problem we are having in design discussion is for the stack repo . We’ve been discussing what branching workflow is appropriate. We have environments for stack related deployment targets. Then it’s been suggested to use “environment branching” for the environment stacks. However when I look into “environment branching” there are outstanding critics and it’s not clear if this is a Pulumi best practice

Then I’d like to ask for examples of what works for other orgs. Finally maybe the Pulumi team has some best practice suggestions they could share.

Hello, I need some help, I have a private github repo and I am trying to create a new project from there like this:

pulumi new <https://github.com/><user>/<repo>/tree/<branch>

and it keeps coming with an error

authentication required

I tried

Copy code

pulumi new <https://username>:token@github.com/<user>/<repo>/tree/<branch>`

but I am still getting the same error

Is there a way in pulumi that I can dynamically create EC2 machines and call pulumi up and pulumi destroy accordingly?

Hi, The Cloud Austin Meetup group is looking for a Pulumi user to talk about their experience with Pulumi. If you're interested in doing a Zoom presentation, message me and I can put you in touch with the organizers. https://www.meetup.com/CloudAustin

how do you delete a nested stack resource e.g I have urn:a which contains urn:a2 I can't do pulumi state delete urn:a because urn:a2 depends on it but if I try and do pulumi state delete urn:a2 it complains that it doesnt exist in the current state

Two of my resources won't update. They report that they need to update, and when I

up

they report that they've updated, but the next

preview

still has them requiring an update.

Hi all, I’m trying to use Pulumi to install the

ingress-nginx

helm chart. It gets stuck because the it’s waiting for pods to get ready before moving on, but the pods depend on secrets created by jobs, which are defined in the same chart. These jobs aren’t being installed/applied, I guess because Pulumi is waiting on the other resources to completely deploy succesfully. Does anyone have a solution how to solve this or work around it?

Hi all, Is there a way to change the backend Pulumi code where it starts to store the state inside some DB instead of local file? without us having to register for cloud service?

not sure how the docs are built for pulumi (aws), but this page https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/nodejs/pulumi/aws/types/output/#ProjectSourceGitSubmodulesConfig is killing my browser… 😞

Is it possible to define the parallelism = 1 for only a specific ComponentResource? I understand i can do it via the cli pulumi up -p 1 but I only need it for a specific Resource.

how can I concat extra values to an Output declared just like https://github.com/pulumi/examples/blob/master/aws-ts-airflow/index.ts#L61? I have some common environment variables and some unique environment variables. I’ve tried playing around with

pulumi.all

and

environment.apply

but haven’t been able to figure out how to do something like

environment: environment + {name: "ANOTHER_ENV", value: "value"}

I'm provisioning instances (DigitalOcean droplets if it matters) using a cloudinit YAML config. Pulumi exits (well, considers the droplet provisioned) before my commands in

runcmd

are done. What I'd like to do is wait until these are complete and then take a snapshot. My idea is to

touch

a file as the last command and have something in Pulumi poll & wait for that file to exist - only then should the droplet be considered provisioned. Is this possible - or am I off track? Is Pulumi a good fit here?

how can I integrate Digital Ocean Kubernetes and Container Registry using Pulumi? I’m not clear on how to do it using this tutorial https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/container-registry/how-to/use-registry-docker-kubernetes/

We are planning to use Infrastructructue as code at our company. The python developers suggested Pulumi. Are there more features in the paid version compared to free version?

Hi, I am using the Postgres plugin with dotnet. I have an existing role and changed the provider of the role definition. Pulumi detects this as change and tries to generate a new unique name. I tried to prevent this with IgnoreChanges ("provider"), however, it still detects a change. Any suggestions?

Hi, I'm trying to use the getPolicyDefinition function https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/azure-nextgen/authorization/getpolicydefinition/ , but I don't see what could possibly be the value of the policyDefinitionName argument For example for the built-in policy "Allowed location" (https://github.com/Azure/azure-policy/blob/master/built-in-policies/policyDefinitions/General/AllowedLocations_Deny.json) I tried to use the value of the field displayName or name but with no luck (Error : the policy definition 'Allowed locations' could not be found.) Previously I was using with no problem the function from the azure package https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/azure/policy/getpolicydefintion/ Any idea what could be the value of the policyDefinitionName argument ?

It does not seem possible to me to import a

aws.iam.UserLoginProfile

. There’s a chicken-and-egg situation with the

pgpKey

argument not existing on the resource but also not being creatable on the imported resource, and the suggested workaround (

ignoreChanges

) does not seem to work for me. Is there a recommended way of doing this?

Hi Another question regarding the policies with Azure Nextgen : I can't see any option to set the scope for a policyset definition or a policy definition like I used in the Azure package ( https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/azure/policy/policysetdefinition/#managementgroupname_nodejs), is there an other way to specify the scope that I missed or do I need to open a feature request ?

Hey y’all! Quick question regarding API Gateway and Crosswalk. We may want to create the API Gateway in a separate project and then use a StackReference to add routes/methods/etc. to it. Is it possible to do with Crosswalk, or is this a good place to use the main

aws

provider and make the resources ourselves?

Hello is there any user certification for Pulumi, like in AWS you have certification courses, I would be interested in doing such a thing with this

One problem with Pulumi is convincing management its a good idea, they also will wonder if I am good enough to use Pulumi
