I’ve noticed that if I do a

pulumi up

and get a summary of proposed changes, then modify the code prior to

approving

the changes, the modified changes get put in place instead of the previously proposed changes. Is this expected/normal in the Pulumi world? It is different than what I am accustom to coming from Terraform. Is there a way to preserve the behavior like Terraform, where a specific plan output can be what is approved/applied?

Hi, when running pulumi through gitlab ci, i get a

kubernetes:core/v1:Namespace testtest creating error: configured Kubernetes cluster is unreachable: unable to load schema information from the API server: the server has asked for the client to provide credentials

However running it locally it works fine. I use a google service account both locally and on gitlab ci by exporting

GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS

env variable

Another question, how can i use a private gitlab repository when fetching e.g. kustomization files?

Is there a way to get all the outputs of a stack from within another stack without knowing the output names/ids?

Is there any way to read helm charts (or just plain yamls etc) from a private gitlab repository (at gitlab.com)?

Hi guys, I was wondering if there is any way to get rid of the “pulumi up” and run everything programatically. I was trying to create a Go library for infrastructure and I was evaluating pulumi, so I was wondering if I could do everything from some function. Is that possible?

Hi guys, is there an example somewhere of usage of

[OutputTypeAttribute]

and

[OutputConstructorAttribute]

(c#) ? I'm looking to output stuff in hierarchy. Ex:

{
  logging: {
    AppInsights: {
      InstrumentationKey: "...",
    },
    ...<other logging stuff>
  },
  ... <other stuff>
}

Using ImmutableDictionnary seem to display secrets when executing `pulumi output`😞 Thanks!

Hey! Is it possible to register custom output? E.g I have

someString

and would like to register it with custom name, so that it can be reused on the next run.

Hey guys, I’m trying to understand the pricing model for Team plan. Let’s say if I spin up a k8s cluster with 2 nodes on EKS and it runs 24/7. How many resources does it take? and how many credits will I consume?

Hi, is there any way to get a gcp artifact registry URL? Theres one for the gcp container registry but since google now advice its user to switch to using the artifact registry instead

Hello Team, Started using pulumi today, whenever i use

pulumi new gcp-python

it creates a sample example for gcs bucket, but i dont want that. Is there any different way or this is how pulumi works ??

Hello. Am I blind or is there no logout/signout action on the https://app.pulumi.com/ site? I need to log out of my personal account and in to my company account.

Hi Friends, I am looking into Pulumi for AWS and K8s orchestration. I am wondering what is the recommended approach to work with EKS. I see 2 options -

from pulumi_aws import eks

and second one is

import pulumi_eks as eks

Which will you recommend?

Hi guys, I'm using azurekeyvault has secrets-provider. The azurekeyvault which contains the stack key is not in the same tenant/subscription as where the stack is deployed and I'm trying to run

pulumi cli

from a pipeline. From what I understand with

pulumi cli

(https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/secrets/#azure-key-vault), the secret provider authentication is based on azure environment variables:

ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID
ARM_CLIENT_ID
ARM_CLIENT_SECRET
ARM_TENANT_ID

is there a un-documented way of having 2 sets of Azure auth ENV. One for secret-provider and second for AzureProvider and deploying the stack? Currently it seem that the

azurekeyvault

have to be in the same subscription of where the stack is deployed. Thanks

How would I run a bash command like

git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD

or a webpack command in a pulumi file? Is there a way to run arbitrary shell commands synchronously?

Hello there, Any guide on how to push docker images to an artifact repository (GCP) using pulumi?

important-twilight-35510

10/01/2021, 3:21 PM

hey there, i was wondering about choosing language (compiled vs interpreted). to ask if there is a performance difference

important-twilight-35510

10/01/2021, 3:21 PM

this is me coming from ansible, which is written in python and dog-slow to execute. literally like toffee

important-twilight-35510

10/01/2021, 3:23 PM

i understand that generally speaking... typescript is the preferred language for pulumi. however i would also like to see some hard performance test comparison to confirm the relative execution speeds of each option. before finally deciding which one to use myself

important-twilight-35510

10/01/2021, 3:24 PM

does such comparison already exist out there? as cannot seem to find anything

important-twilight-35510

10/01/2021, 4:19 PM

it seems would naturally follow my next question here: are all these different language bindings just end up calling down the same calls to be in python underneath? which might make them all approximately the same speed maybe? 👀

Apologies if this is a trivial question, but is it perhaps possible to somehow generate the Pulumi stack of an existing Kubernetes based infrastructure that was manually created? If not, and I do end up manually coding it in Pulumi, assuming the code matches the infra, when it gets applied would it update the existing non-Pulumi based infrastructure and make it Pulumi managed? Briefly put, how do I turn an existing infrastructure into a Pulumi managed one?

Hi there, I’m trying to deploy my backend service on gke, I look up the crosswalk document and github repo, but not sure which one I should follow. In github repo, step 4 need config

pulumi config set k8s-gke-apps-svcs:clusterStackRef myUser/k8s-gke-cluster/dev-1573601751

, and this stack

k8s-gke-cluster

comes from another repo: 03-cluster-configuration, will I need create a cluster configuration stack as well? Cuz crosswalk document doesn’t mention this part. (BTW, the github repo links in crosswalk gcp document link to aws repo 🤣 )

Hi, I’m having trouble using output value of one Docker container (ip address) in another container’s environment variable. There seems to be no way to turn an output value into a string and pulumi.interpolate doesn’t seem to work. Any suggestions?

10/04/2021, 3:59 PM

const pgContainer = new docker.Container('postgres-container', { ... })
const apiContainer = new docker.Container('api-container', {
    ...,
    envs: [
        pulumi.interpolate`DB_HOST=${pgContainer.networkDatas[0].gateway}`,
    ]
}, { dependsOn: [pgContainer] })

need a little help with how to "return" outputs from a component resource and use them in the main package as i'm still getting the error

error: program failed: waiting for RPCs: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = marshaling properties: awaiting input property vpc: cannot marshal an input of type pulumi.StringOutput with element type string as a value of type pulumi.StringOutput

... if I flatten the struct and just return

StringOutput

types, i can make it work but if i try and nest a struct, i'm missing something...the

standardEnvironment.go

file is in my component resource and

main.go

is from the main package where I'm running the CLI Any help / guidance here is appreciated!!

main.go standardEnvironment.go

Can I dynamically fetch provider credentials from somewhere like Vault?

gentle-diamond-70147

10/05/2021, 4:05 PM

Not for default provider configuration (e.g.

pulumi config set aws:accessKeyId ...

), but you can for explicit providers like below:

const awsProvider = new aws.Provider("main",{
    accessKeyId: vaultClient.getSecret("accessKeyId"),
    // ...
});

That is pseudocode, fyi.
