I've done your method before and it works, so how would I do it if I have to bind multiple resources?

It might actually work if you take the JSON.stringify away (though not certain on that)

For multiple variables like that you can use

pulumi.all

Copy code

const policy = pulumi.all([thing1.arn, thing2.arn]).apply(([arn1, arn2]) => {
    return ......
});

aha! - That is most useful

stocky-spoon-28903

There’s also an overload where you can pass an object like this:

09/28/2018, 9:09 PM

Copy code

const policy = pulumi.all({
    arn1: thing1.arn,
    arn2: thing2.arn
}).apply(reified => {
    // reified.arn1 and reified.arn2 are unwrapped values here
});

Perfect- thanks @stocky-spoon-28903

Is somewhere a good explanation on how

.get

on resources works and where it gets its data from? Does it query information from the state in the current stack, can I query other stacks, does it call the provider APIs to figure out the information? I need to get some info about an existing GKE cluster, similar to what I would do with “data sources” in terraform https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/google/d/google_container_cluster.html.

@glamorous-printer-66548 All of the terraform data sources are reflected in the form of

get*

functions

https://github.com/jen20/pulumi-aws-vpc/blob/master/src/index.ts#L102-L104 is an example (in this case for AWS)

so the equivalent for a gke cluster data source in pulumi would be this? https://pulumi.io/reference/pkg/nodejs/@pulumi/gcp/container/#getCluster

09/28/2018, 10:12 PM

Thats the one

glamorous-printer-66548

09/28/2018, 10:12 PM

what is the static

.get

method on resource classes then for?

stocky-spoon-28903

09/28/2018, 10:12 PM

Hmm, I don’t know. @big-piano-35669 or @microscopic-florist-22719 likely do

It’s to refer to a resource that already exists - you can use

.get

to get a Resource object representing something that Pulumi didn’t create.

incalculable-sundown-82514

09/28/2018, 10:13 PM

e.g. created by the cloud console, Terraform, etc.

incalculable-sundown-82514

09/28/2018, 10:13 PM

Pulumi won’t delete it or modify it in any way, but you can use its properties to create other resources.

.get

overlaps a little with TF data sources

is it possible to turn a

Promise<gcp.container.GetClusterResult>

into an

Input<gcp.container.GetClusterResult>

Output<gcp.container.GetClusterResult>

so that I can pass subproperties of the result to pulumi resources without manual unwrapping?

Is there a way to get all stack outputs as a json map?

Looking to experiment with pulumi .. seems very promising. Since I am mostly using helm right now I figured I would start with the provided example. https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes/blob/master/examples/helm/index.ts

of interest to me was the ability to get information back from a chart and possibly use that as a value in other chart install. My use case is with CRD. So I tried to use the getResource as show here as follows: getResource(“kubeless.io/v1beta1”, “kinesis-trigger”); But that results in error TS2345: Argument of type ‘“kubeless.io/v1beta1”’ is not assignable to parameter of type ‘“storage.k8s.io/v1beta1/StorageClassList”’.

is there an easier way to get data from the state file? Very familiar with terraform and how their remote state works, figuring pulumi has something equivalent

man pulumi is fun, its so easy

Hey when reading an existing resource via

<Resource>.get(...)

it seems the imported resource info always shows up in the stack diff, even if it hasn’t really changed. I’m seeing this behaviour with GKE clusters and this basically adds multiple hundred lines of noise to each diff. Is this a known limitation or bug, shall I open an issue?

what system libs does pulumi require? having a hard time getting it running in alpine

stocky-spoon-28903

Likely DNS and CA roots, what are you seeing?

trying to get it added into a circleci build, would like to add it to our already alpine based ci image
