hi all! Is there any way to block program execution until an output value is known? For example if I conditionally wanted to peer a vpc - but only if a VPC of a certain name exists?

const inRegionJumpVPC = getVpcOutput({ name: "foo" });
    //Somehow Block here
  if (inRegionJumpVPC) {
    const vpcPeeringConnection = new VpcPeeringConnection(
      `${clusterId}-jumpVpc-peering`,
      {

I know this would be possible with `async`/`await` I’m specifically curious about outputs. The ultimate goal is conditional resource creation in a ComponentResource

Hi Brady, take a look at [apply](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/concepts/inputs-outputs/#apply) to create dependencies.

You might also be able to add an explicit dependency with

dependsOn

, more details at https://www.pulumi.com/docs/concepts/options/dependson/ unfortunately the vpc in question is not created by pulumi so dependencies can not be used here (

get

function results can not be used as dependencies ) @salmon-account-74572 > Hi Brady, take a look at [apply](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/concepts/inputs-outputs/#apply) to create dependencies. Im not sure how apply can be used to create dependencies here @calm-airplane-91573, all values accessible in an apply block would be strings anot not resources

Apologies, I overlooked the fact you’re using a

get

function to look up an existing VPC.
