On that subject, if anyone has details on how does pulumi does the auth for docker image pushes.... I have both gcloud and docker that I can do pushes to a registry with, but when using pulumi I get a failure. I do not want to manually provide a username/password and want it to use my current gcp auth... thoughts? And I'm trying with the new docker_build to be exact(v4, not the v3)

i'm using gitlab ci/cd for this and only using pulumi to manage the gcp & gitlab resources and privs.

yeah, that's easier indeed.

I believe you're looking for step 5 from this list of pre-reqs: https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/gcp/how-to-guides/gcp-ts-docker-gcr-cloudrun/#prerequisites. Ex,

gcloud auth configure-docker <http://us-central1-docker.pkg.dev|us-central1-docker.pkg.dev>
