Howdy all! havent used pulumi in a while and happy to consider myself a user again .. that being said, I want to use awsx provider with python and it looks like I cannot pass any args to the provider? I would have expected something similar to the classic provider. Am I missing something here? thanks

Hey Benjamin. I'm pretty sure AWSX takes a "normal"
pulumi_aws
provider, so you can just configure that as normal and pass it through.

hey, sorry had to let that go for a while but resuming now - if i understand correctly , that means programmatically setting up an awsx provider with arguments is impossible and I should fallback to a classic provider and pass it to the awsx resource? I will give it a try but that feels odd
that seems to be aligned with https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-awsx?tab=readme-ov-file#custom-aws-provider-versions ( different use case though )

Yes, indeed. AWSX is just an abstraction over AWS Classic resources, so it doesn't introduce any providers of its own
g
out of curiosity, did that change? i have some memories of a specific provider with a different set of options available ( was a bit painful)

Not to my knowledge, but perhaps a very old version before my time behaved differently.
