Hi folks, new to Pulumi and enjoying it so far, but wanted to ask one thing. Say I try to create an existing resource (and ofc it fails). If the resource already exists, how can I register it to state?

Hey folks, what is the way to get the value out of pulumi/random? I tried using apply and pulumi output, just keep getting an error

Calling [toJSON] on an [Output<T>] is not supported. To get the value of an Output as a JSON value or JSON string consider either: 1: o.apply(v => v.toJSON()) 2: o.apply(v => JSON.stringify(v)) See <https://pulumi.io/help/outputs> for more details. This function may throw in a future version of @pulumi/pulumi.

Copy code

const rdsPassword = new random.RandomPassword('rds-password', {
  length: 20,
  special: true,
  overrideSpecial: '_%@',
})

const rdsUsername = new random.RandomPassword('rds-username', {
  length: 20,
  special: false,
})

const rdsSecretVersion = new aws.secretsmanager.SecretVersion('rds-secret-version', {
  secretId: rdsSecret.id,
  secretString: JSON.stringify({
    AURORA_USERNAME: rdsUsername.result.apply((value) => JSON.stringify(value)),
    AURORA_PASSWORD: rdsPassword.result.apply((value) => JSON.stringify(value)),
  }),
})

Is there any ideas for creating an interface for stack outputs? I caught myself using the automation API to orchestrate 100+ micro-stacks and weaving outputs together and staging dependent resources, but it seems like I am really just creating a layer on top of what Pulumi already does pretty well with outputs. My use case is solving the orchestration issue that arises when moving from a mono-repo to micro-stacks. From one side, we want to make workflows efficient for dev teams, but it comes at a cost to us as the operators as we need to pick up the orchestration "slack". Stuff like provisioning dev environments can be tricky if we need to trigger 60+ pipelines in other repositories. If dev teams services depend on other teams services it becomes even more opaque what to do.

Hi Pulumi Folks - I'm looking into Pulumi, and wondering if the Pulumi SaaS offering provides features that would allow engineers, managers, etc to visualize the infrastructure we are deploying, see dependency relationship, do cost analysis, etc?

In Terraform there is a

data

type that I can use to refer to and verify external ( unmanaged ) resources Is there an equivalent in Pulumi?

Hey, is there a way to pass in Autoscaling Groups in EKS Node Groups? AWS auto creates an autoscaling group for the Node Group I make, but there's no way to pass in the autoscaling group in order to be able to specify the autoscaling behavior

Hi y’all! Want to use the PostgreSQL provider to create and set up multiple DBs in a single stack. However, the docs say that I need to specify either one set of environment variables or one set of pulumi config values. Does anyone know a strategy that would allow me to use a different set of values for each DB that my stack intends to create? Thanks!

I’d like to create a custom component resource that on creation performs some api calls and builds a thing on a website. If the calls are successful I’d like to publish an arbitrary resource in the pulumi state to track this resource. On pulumi destroy, or on destroy of the specific component resource, I’d like specific actions to be performed (An API call is executed to delete the resource, the arbitrary resource is deleted from pulumi state). Can anyone link me to some docs around handling the lifecycle of a custom component resource that’s built without using an already published provider? Lets say the class is called ClusterConnection, and it integrates my k8s cluster with a ci cd system by calling the cicd service’s API. I would have a clusterconnection resource in my pulumi state, and on destruction of that pulumi stack or resource it would perform a custom api call to delete the object and then it would remove the object from state

Hi Team, https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/aws/api-docs/s3control/bucketlifecycleconfiguration/ when I try with this example, I am getting _*NameError: name 'aws_s3control_bucket' is not defined*_ Could anyone help in this regard? I am assuming here ''example' as - Lifecycle Name

Hi all, I'm upgrading from v3.5.0 to v4.1.0 of the Cloudflare provider (https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/cloudflare/). This is resulting in a bunch of replacements because the resource URN changes:

[provider: urn:pulumi:cloudflare-dns-secondary-domains::cloudflare-dns-secondary-domains::pulumi:providers:cloudflare::default_3_0_0::3a22f721-09b3-4061-965f-6d1a97f600f4 => urn:pulumi:cloudflare-dns-secondary-domains::cloudflare-d urn:pulumi:cloudflare-dns-secondary-domains::cloudflare-dns-secondary-domains::pulumi:providers:cloudflare::default_4_0_0::output<string>]

Is this expected behaviour (because there's a breaking change in the upstream TF provider)? What's the best way of dealing with this?

Is there a good reason to why

pulumi up

doesn't run

init

if the stack doesn't exists?

Hi, I'm new to Pulumi, so this might be a terribly stupid question. I've created a project with a stack that creates ONE EC2 instance which are configured based on a couple of configuration settings. Now, I want to have (I think) another project (or stack?) that can launch the first one 5 times with different configurations. Is this possible? Am I even thinking about this right?

Does pulumi handle resource name restriction? • automatically • is this based on the provider • do I need to write my own code?

Copy code

aws:lb/targetGroup:TargetGroup resource 'abc-app-backend-staging-fg-alb-tg' has a problem: "name" cannot be longer than 32 characters. Examine values at 'TargetGroup.Name'.

hi all, I was trying to create IAP brand and client, strangely, the first attempt creating the brand actually throws an error saying the Support Email was invalid; on running pulumi up again, it then shows the entity has already exists with unconfiguredapp@google.com as the support Email. I retrieve the brand details using gcloud CLI and hard code it in my code and tried to create an IAP client using the brand ID, it shows the following error:

Copy code

error: 1 error occurred:
        * Error creating Client: googleapi: Error 400: Precondition check failed.

I was running pulumi on my local, did I miss anything?

Is there integration testing example for Typescript? I would like to write a test case to test a file upload function of my application after it was deployed, basically the test depends on 2 parameters: 1) the url of the application and 2) application authentication key which is generated on the fly in Pulumi.

Question regarding automation API and support for policy: 1. Can we use a policy with automation api (not defined at the org level) 2. Do we still need an enterprise edition for using policies with automation API's?

Hi! Could you please help to clarify 2 questions about Pulumi AWS EKS cluster deployment: - Are any reasons to use AWS EKS module from AWS package comparing to Pulumi.Eks package? - What is the best practice to configure custom CNI like Calico/Cilium instead of VPC Cni?
