Hi, Just testing things out with the vSphere provider doing the create new datacenter example and it errors out with * creating urn😛ulumi:dev::infra::vsphere:index/datacenter😄atacenter::my-dc: POST https://xxxxxx.io/rest/com/vmware/cis/tagging/tag-association?~action=list-attached-tags: 404 Not Found But it actually created the datacenter resource, just seems to have issues with the tagging. Does pulumi work with VCSA 7.01 ? Is there something else I have to enable before the tagging works ?

HI guys, I have a question. I have defined

var args = new ResourceGroupArgs {ResourceGroupName = "AppShared"};

inside my stack... I can deploy changes to my Azure subscription, but I wonder why the name is always AppShared{SOME_RANDOM_CHARACTERS} when i browse resources on azure portal? I need the name to be set exactly as I defined. Please advice

Hello, I have been utterly puzzled on how to create an api config on gcp. The required properties are content and path, content is fairly self explanatory but any path I try to give it spits back a 404 at me?

    error: 1 error occurred:
        * Error creating ApiConfig: googleapi: got HTTP response code 404 with body: <!DOCTYPE html>

^ am trying to set github org structure with pulumi TS. I get the repo name auto-named

demo-repo-dea3c46

. Am reading https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/resources/#autonaming yet don’t find a way to avoid auto naming. I want my repo to appear in github as

demo-repo

instead of

demo-repo-dea3c46

. What should I change in my code? Thanks

Hi. It is possible to host a aws lambdas deployment package via s3. This works nicely using Pulumis Function type. Now I wonder if it's possible to configure the Function in a way that Pulumi automatically redeploys it when the associated BucketObject gets updated?

Hi all. I plan to use pulumi at work if possible (replacing bespoke boto3 scripts..). We are heavy cloudformation an servicecatalog users, which seems like it will be easy to migrate over pulumi (cloudformation is essentially already there) and servicecatalog should be easy for us to wrap around our code into a ressource. Question: cloudformation exposes the concept of "drift" (if someone modifies the ressource manually, for instance). Does pulumi have plans to detect and make use of that feature? Currently it seems like it's not being used by the diff engine at all (maybe it should).

Is it possible to import component resources in the CLI? You can see I successfully imported 3 resources related to an S3 bucket, but it's at the root of the stack. I want to import them into the S3Bucket component I've created. I assume this is possible with a resource import, but is it possible from the CLI bulk import?

hi, how do i pull an image from a private registry (on gcp or aws) to local. i tried something like this:

const xyz = new docker.RemoteImage("xyz", {
  name: '<http://1234567899.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/myimage|1234567899.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/myimage>'
})

but it failed with

Unable to read Docker image into resource: Unable to pull image...no basic auth credentials

(i have AWS keys set in my shell) How do i configure the auth, (i couldn't find any options to configure it in the remoteImage doc)

How long does the Pulumi CLI cache new project(s), I was creating a new project - it failed with a permissions error (I'll ask about that separately). After I wiped out the directory, the CLI is still telling me there's already a project created with that name.

My second question: I created a config repo for my pulumi stacks (dev, stage, prod) each with their own stack specific config settings for GCP, etc. When I do a

pulumi new

and provide the path to the config I want to seed the project with it runs and then hits this permissions error.

stack name: (dev)
Created stack 'dev'

Hey pulumi people 🙂 This thing is completely new to me, but before diving in I've a quick question. Can I tell Pulumi to pull code from GitHub/Gitlab into a k8s pod, build a container (perhaps with kaniko) and push that container to a container registry? I've read a little about the Docker provider, and also looked through an example where a Python app is packaged up in a container in Azure and then deployed to Azure App Service. That's really cool but I'm looking at ways to do this inside a generic k8s cluster.

Hi, I am reading the docs and searching for provisioning a bare-metal cluster under KVM or whatever virtualization tech with Pulumi. Is this possible or is it supported in any way(bare-metal specific) or will it be in the future?

Hi pulumi folks, I just discovered pulumi. Also signed up for pulumiUP! event 🙌 I recently figured out how to use ansible on a control node on digitalocean and from that one configure another digitalocean server node. My use case is: 1. i setup a web app that allows users to oauth connect their digitalocean credentials to my webapp 2. then they can press a button to spin up a new instance in their DO account and with all the configuration and software installed. My original plan was: 1. use an open source python-digitalocean library to call DO public API to spin up the instance under the user’s account 2. then use the ansible control node (which belongs to my service and account) to configure the basic software on that new instance With the discovery of pulumi, what can I use it to replace in my original plan? I suppose the open source python-digitalocean library calling DO public API can be replaced by pulumi. What about ansible? do i still need that?

Hello Pulumi people! After using Terraform for a while, I just discovered Pulumi and trying out if it's worth migrating! I though encountered an issue with the input/output concept, and the documentation is not enough for me to be unstuck. Let me explain: I would like to do a base setup of our AWS infrastructure, using Go language. I started up by creating a VPC with pulumi and AWS sdk. Then, I wanted to grab the main route table id from that VPC (the one created by default), to associate more routes to it. I failed miserably at that step.

Hello everyone! Thanks for the great product which Pulumi is. I have a question: in the Google Cloud Console I manually set an alert to send a notifcation to a slack channel when a service in the GKE restarts. Does anyone have experience doing that via Pulumi? Could you please point out to a tutorial or smth on how to do that?

Hi, team! I really like Pulumi and trying to migrate from Terraform. I have a question. I have two GCP projects(dev & prod). Should I create two Pulumi project or should I use the same Pulumi project and seperate it by two stacks? Thank you!

Think about it this way - your pulumi code represents a way of building something. You ideally want to build it the same way in development and production - but perhaps have smaller scale in development.

a pulumi project maps to the pulumi code pretty much - so having multiple stacks for multiple environments for a single project makes sense - that way a fix in development can be easily and correctly applied to production because you've tested the pulumi code there first and the original code for both environments were the same 🙂

when I mention multiple projects for multiple types of operations- I usually think about this in terms of layers of stuff.. baseline infra established in one project, then one project manages database configurations, another project manages kubernetes configurations, and you might have a seperate project for access management (I'm currently playing with pulumi automation for this purpose, it shows real promise! :D)
