hi everyone, i've created a protected resource, and then i unprotected it directly by modifying the state:

pulumi state unprotect ...

now, in the code, i still have the code block which creates the protected resource, but when i run

pulumi preview

, it shows resources unchanged. what i imagine how it should work is: since i modify the state manually (setting it as unprotected), while my code has it as protected, when i do

pulumi preview

i expect it should show resource going from

unprotected

protected

. i know

protect

is a pulumi thing, but does my expectation make sense? is this expected?

hi everyone, how do you properly type this go struct in python?

type Team struct {
  Name         string `yaml:"name"`
  Description  string `yaml:"description"`
  Slug         string   `yaml:"slug"`
  ParentTeamId int
  Teams        []Team   `yaml:"teams"`
}

here is what i have:

@dataclass
class Team:
    name: str
    slug: str
    description: str
    ...
    subteams: Optional[list[Team]] 
    parent_team_id: Optional[int] = None

the team data is read from a yaml file here are several issues: 1. in order to use

refence , you have to do

Team(**team)

to create the object, where

team

is a python dict read from YAML. however, this will be flagged by type checker:

Arguments missing for parameters "name", "slug", "description

2. there is a nested field

subteams

, when reading from yaml, it's not automatically deserialized, so you have to create the object again

Team(**sub_team)

to use

reference 3. since not every team entry has

subteam

field, you have to assign empty list as default value. but when you iterate over the entries in yaml, you will have type error

Object of type "None" cannot be used as iterable value

when you do

parent_team.subteams

I can't write the C# that works because I don't have domain knowledge about Azure -- does that sound right?

We already have four

SQL server

things in Azure's lit of All resource but no 'SQL server registration'. Why is pulumi requiring this?

stocky-butcher-62635

04/11/2022, 10:06 AM

in fact I can't even find anything called SQL server registration in the Azure website

stocky-butcher-62635

04/11/2022, 11:13 AM

OK, so

Pulumi.AzureNative.AzureData.SqlServer

is not

Pulumi.AzureNative.Sql.Server

I guess what's happening now is that for some reason pulumi thinks that the resource group exists even though it doesn't. It's appended something to resource group name. (I deleted the resource group that it had created and then failed.)

username is a substring of password, apparently.

Can I create a server login and database user for that login? Or only an admin user for the server?

stocky-butcher-62635

04/11/2022, 11:55 AM

and do the passwords have to be plaintext hard-coded into the C#?

System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine

doesn't work. How do you debug the programme?

04/11/2022, 12:22 PM

config.Require(...)

returns

Output<string>

and there is no way to get the actual value?

pulumi stack change-secrets-provider

is for where the encryption key is stored but not for the encrypted values themselves. How do I change it back? Looks like I have to delete the stack and start over?

stocky-butcher-62635

04/11/2022, 12:47 PM

Maybe it didn't work anyway -- website says Pulumi Service under Secrets Management

hi @stocky-butcher-62635! would you be up for sharing what ur working on? then we may be able to curate a set of docs and other learning resources to help get you in a good place. folks are also available to zoom with you if that works better.

How about I make a GitHub repo and organise it into a sequence of steps?

After creating an SQL Server database I want to make the connection string and add it to a key vault.

// Make the database conneciotn string and store it in the key vault.
            Output<string> cs = administratorLoginPassword.Apply(z => $"Server={sqlServer.FullyQualifiedDomainName}; Database={database.Name}, uid=rwb, pwd={z}");
            KeyVault.Secret s = new KeyVault.Secret($"{PulumiProject}-{ae}-key-vault-secret", new KeyVault.SecretArgs()
            {
                ResourceGroupName = resourceGroup.Name,
                VaultName = v.Name,
                SecretName = "ConnectionString",
                Properties = new KeyVault.Inputs.SecretPropertiesArgs() { Value = cs }
            });

But the value is coming out as junk

Server=Calling [ToString] on an [Output<T>] is not supported.

    To get the value of an Output<T> as an Output<string> consider:
    1. o.Apply(v => $"prefix{v}suffix")
    2. Output.Format($"prefix{hostname}suffix");

    See <https://pulumi.io/help/outputs> for more details.
    This function may throw in a future version of Pulumi.; Database=Calling [ToString] on an [Output<T>] is not supported.

The only workaround I can think of is to store the password as plaintext in the

yml

config or to generate it on the fly so that I have a proper string instead of this

Output

that can't be used

how can I tell pulumi that my stack files are in a different folder other than the root?

Hi Folks, I am new to Pulumi, I am trying to understand how to extract actual value out of a Pulumi Output<>. this is my usecase :

const repository = new aws.ecr.Repository(".......");

const serviceImage = pulumi.output(aws.ecr.getImage({
  imageTag: "latest",
  repositoryName: ... NEED TO SPECIFY THE ACTUAL STRING REPO NAME...,
}));

repository.name

is of the form :

pulumi.Output<String>

which is why I cannot use it as is.

howdy 👋 I couldn’t find much information on best practices for breaking out pulumi to different files, I’m using typescript and simply importing * from folders according to my own logic not sure it’s the cause, but my issue right now is that I’m exporting a const from an inner file that I include from

index.ts

but it’s not being recognized as an output - is pulumi picking up all of the exports from all the files or do I need to indicate something specific in the root level

index.ts

hi folks, I have a couple of questions that I guess probably belong here rather than in #general. Rather than repeating myself, could somebody help me with them? https://pulumi-community.slack.com/archives/C84L4E3N1/p1649911995262149 https://pulumi-community.slack.com/archives/C84L4E3N1/p1649925295765309
