Trying to use `ecs.get_cluster` in python.  Is there a code sample that shows how to do this?  Do I really have to create an async function just to get the value?

Also I tried putting it in a function and `await ecs.get_cluster(cluster_name="&lt;name&gt;")`, but when I try to call the function, i get  `coroutine 'get' was never awaited.  Seems like a chicken and an egg if I have to await async functions but can't only await from within a function?

See this thread from yesterday: <https://pulumi-community.slack.com/archives/C84L4E3N1/p1551307179439800?thread_ts=1551307022.439300&amp;cid=C84L4E3N1>

We're working on getting more documentation on this.

As you can see in the example there - you don't have to await the async function, you just pass the result of the function into a resource input somewhere where you want to use it.

We're definitely thinking about ways to improve this API design.

Thanks for the quick reply, this is the code I'm trying

```
async def p():
    return await ecs.get_cluster(cluster_name="testcluster")

cluster_details = p()```

But I get this error: `RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'p' was never awaited`
