hello! I'm trying out pulumi and im trying to change one of the fargate awsx tutorials to use ec2. but im getting stumped 😢

import * as awsx from "@pulumi/awsx";

const lb = new awsx.lb.NetworkListener("loadbalancer", { port: 80 });

// Need explicit cluster bc we have to define ec2 autoscaling group
const cluster = new awsx.ecs.Cluster("ec2-cluster");

cluster.createAutoScalingGroup("ec2-cluster-asg", {
  templateParameters: { minSize: 2 },
  launchConfigurationArgs: { instanceType: "t2.nano" },
});

// Will build our app image and push to ECR
const appImage = awsx.ecs.Image.fromPath("app-docker-image", "./app");

const appService = new awsx.ecs.EC2Service("app", {
  cluster,
  taskDefinitionArgs: {
    containers: {
      app: {
        image: appImage,
        portMappings: [lb],
        memoryReservation: 256,
      },
    },
  },
  desiredCount: 2,
});

export const url = lb.endpoint;

When I go to

pulumi up

I get an error creating the autoscale group cloudformation stack

error waiting for CloudFormation Stack creation: failed to create CloudFormation stack, rollback requested (ROLLBACK_COMPLETE): ["The following resource(s) failed to create: [Instances]. Rollback requested by user." "Property AvailabilityZones cannot be empty."]

I'm under the impression auto scaling would be using the clusters azs? Not seeing a good place to specify the az either, so I think I'm missing something? Any help would be much appreciated!

this doesn't look to be supported with awsx at the moment. You'd need ro construct the ec2 instances manually, there's an example of that here: https://github.com/jaxxstorm/pulumi-examples/blob/main/typescript/aws/ecs/index.ts

Thank you. I will try these after work and follow up. first one looks promising since im seeing asg role doesn't have cloudwatch perms
