You can check between 
preview
and 
up
using the 
is_dry_run
function from the core Pulumi SDK: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/python/pulumi/#pulumi.runtime.is_dry_run When 
destroy
runs, the language host is not involved as Pulumi destroys the resources based on what is in the state, not what is in your Pulumi program.

is there an equivalent for 
destroy
?
l
No, because during 
destroy
, your program isn't loaded. As mentioned above, Pulumi deletes the resources it can find in the state of your stack. Can you explain why you would need it during 
destroy
?
s
Right, good point. I am reaching out to an external database doing crud operations
Perhaps i need to create a custom resource, or custom provider

@strong-helmet-83704 is this what you are after? https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/9397

kinda… I did consider wrapping the program to perform cleanup tasks outside of Pulumi… but this seems less neat
The other thing i could do is refactor the program with automation api and have a custom interface for invoking my program. but this is a major overhaul and automation api does not have all the features of the regular cli
i think for now the best bet might be https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/resources/dynamic-providers/ @kind-jelly-61624
