Is it possible to have pulumi build a docker image from an enclosing directory? I am trying the following but getting errors:

image: awsx.ecs.Image.fromDockerBuild("test", {
          context: "../",
          dockerfile: "docker/prod/Dockerfile"
        }),

Error is

error: unable to prepare context: unable to evaluate symlinks in Dockerfile path:

. My pulumi code is in a subfolder of my source code directory.

Are there any symlinks involved in the paths here? I’ve not seen this specific error before, even in cases where things are structured generally like you describe here. Are you able to successfully run the equivalent

docker build

command directly?

@white-balloon-205 Thanks I figured it out by trying to docker build directly like you said, there are no symlinks involved, but the path in

dockerfile

should be

../docker/prod/Dockerfile

,

../

needs to be pre-pended.
