Doh, I’m a typescript beginner and I’m struggling with converting my `Map&lt;string, number` (I would like to pass port name -&gt; port number mapping that I could then use to generate an array of core.v1.ContainerPort instances :disappointed:

:+1:, I would like this as well. It's not hard to return an object shaped like a `ContainerPort` from a helper function and TypeScript will DTRT, but it'd be nicer to be able to strongly type everything.

<@UD81PU5JL> <@UENBRNS4R> this is an interesting use case… would you mind filing a bug?

I will open a ticket - thanks <@UBAJ7TD53>

<@UD81PU5JL> <@UENBRNS4R> actually, I lied — this already is possible.

`import * as inputApi from "@pulumi/kubernetes/types/input"`

there are technically two shapes — the “input shape” which is the set of properties required at submission time, and the “output shape” which is the  set of properties required when you get the resource definition from the API server.

I’ll follow up in this issue: <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes/issues/336>

Thank you <@UBAJ7TD53> - I wasn’t aware I could import it like this (I’m still typescript newbie)
