Sorry for delay!
You can implement providers in any language that can speak gRPC, but we only currently have examples of that in Go.
However, there is also a Dynamic Provider capability to author providers inside the JavaScript of a Pulumi program. There’s some discussion of this latter approach for talking to GitHub here: https://blog.pulumi.com/managing-github-webhooks-with-pulumi

09/28/2018, 7:49 PMok thanks Luke, I'd probably want to create a provider 'the right way' and would happily use gRPC

09/28/2018, 7:49 PMI can do a little bit of go but not as fluent as in other languages

Taking something structurally similar to the Pulumi-openfaas project, but replacing Go with something else that can produce a stand-alone binary to serve gRPC, should work fine. There’s going to be a bit of boilerplate that you’ll need to port over for this - but nothing intractable.

Curious - which language are you expecting to use?

09/28/2018, 8:00 PMor java but I guess thats last on the list

09/28/2018, 8:01 PMif go is the right choice then I'll have a hack away at it
