helm provisioner as well?

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 7:46 PM

that’s a no, that part is node only for now.

I guess I dont really need helm, pulumi kinda replaces that

just a quick question, how do I create k8s provider when I dont have kube config on the disk? so I create AKS and use output to "init" the k8s provider? does that work or ... ?

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 7:53 PM

Yep, that does work. You do need to construct a

kubeconfig

string based on the output of AKS, but you can do this to create a provider from that kubeconfig: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes/blob/master/examples/python/provider/__main__.py

You can get it from AKS here: https://pulumi.io/reference/pkg/python/pulumi_azure/containerservice/#pulumi_azure.containerservice.KubernetesCluster.kube_config_raw

little-river-49422

I assume I can use this property in output? https://pulumi.io/reference/pkg/python/pulumi_azure/containerservice/#pulumi_azure.containerservice.KubernetesCluster.kube_config_raw

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 7:54 PM

yep!

little-river-49422

02/05/2019, 7:54 PM

ok 😉

02/05/2019, 7:54 PM

not sure why you only have partypus, not parrot, but kinda works 😉

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 7:55 PM

oh no, we don’t have party parrot in here?

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 7:55 PM

this must be fixed

little-river-49422

the more i think about the more I tend to agree that I dont need helm at all, lol. python can do anything helm can and even more. and I wont have to use yet another HCL

02/05/2019, 8:06 PM

yeah, we feel the same! We have the helm stuff in node since it’s sometimes useful to have an easy way to deploy existing helm charts to your cluster

little-river-49422

02/05/2019, 8:06 PM

okay. we're getting there

little-river-49422

02/05/2019, 9:14 PM

ok, thats a fair point. but I suppose I cant really mix 2 types of languages in the same project?

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 9:16 PM

that’s a great question and today the answer is no, you can’t mix two languages in the same project. In the next few weeks we’ll be pursuing a prototype to investigate if it is possible to do that, though.

Since it would be awesome to use Pulumi libraries written in TypeScript from Python without having to re-write everything.

little-river-49422

02/05/2019, 9:17 PM

yeah, for instance I dont think rewriting helm chart for prometheus operator in python makes a lot of sense... 🙂

little-river-49422

02/05/2019, 9:18 PM

but I can just have a separate pulumi configuration for initial cluster configuration. no biggie

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 9:19 PM

cool. we’ve found it’s pretty common for people to have different tiers of their architecture with different Pulumi programs. You can use the

StackReference

resource to reference different stacks: https://pulumi.io/reference/organizing-stacks-projects.html

little-river-49422

02/05/2019, 9:20 PM

ok, this basically means there is no point in multi language configuration, if you can just reference it

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 9:20 PM

that’s not really true, there is a point to it - you may not want to split up your configuration, especially if you’re referencing a library that defines some sort of primitive that you intend to build on

incalculable-sundown-82514

02/05/2019, 9:20 PM

but yeah, you do always have the option of splitting stuff up.

incalculable-sundown-82514

StackReference isn’t available in Python yet IIRC but let me know if you want to play with it and I’ll hook it up (https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/2344)
