Random aside @glamorous-waitress-51149: do you know of any infrastructure user groups in the south west?

something at the back of my head says there is one but can’t remember off the top of my head 🙂

There are also DotNet User Groups that would happily listen to how to build in Azure with TypeScript

back to the original question. trying

awsx.ec2.Vpc.fromExistingIds

seems to fail or doesn’t return an object for some reason. we’d like to have a vpc object that means we can access the

privateSubnetIds

property. any ideas?

07/02/2019, 2:11 PM

How are you calling it?

stocky-spoon-28903

07/02/2019, 2:15 PM

When you pass in the existing IDs you have to nominate which subnets are respectively public, private and isolated

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/02/2019, 2:34 PM

calling it like so:

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/02/2019, 2:34 PM

Copy code

const primaryVpc = awsx.ec2.Vpc.fromExistingIds("primary", {
    vpcId: primaryVpcId
});

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/02/2019, 2:34 PM

primaryVpcId

is a value in our config of the vpc id 🙂

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 9:37 AM

Ok I have another suggestion about getting vpc @glamorous-waitress-51149

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 9:37 AM

Trying it out now

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 9:41 AM

ta, i mean i could rewrite what i have because the aws/awsx types don’t tie in eg/awsx wants a vpc type but aws returns a vpcresult type etc but I’d rather not 🙂

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 9:49 AM

so you want the VPC so you can get the Subnets out of the object right?

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 9:50 AM

yeah so i can create a dbsubnet but i also use what i retrieve here too

const sg = new awsx.ec2.SecurityGroup("jcsg", {vpc: primaryVpc});

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 9:54 AM

👍

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 9:57 AM

ok, @glamorous-waitress-51149 so I have the VPC object using this way instead now

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 9:58 AM

trying one other way to see for compatability

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 9:59 AM

thanks 👍

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 9:59 AM

so both of these give me the same object

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 9:59 AM

Copy code

const vpc = pulumi.output(aws.ec2.getVpc({
    id: "vpc-866580ff",
}));

export const id = vpc.id;

const primaryVpc = awsx.ec2.Vpc.fromExistingIds("primary", {
    vpcId: "vpc-866580ff"
});

export const xId = primaryVpc.id;

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:00 AM

the result from the CLI is as follows:

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:00 AM

Copy code

▶ pulumi up --yes
Previewing update (dev):

     Type                 Name         Plan

so if that

fromExistingIds

isn't returning an object, then there's something wrong with the lookup to your account

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 10:07 AM

seems to export ok

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:07 AM

but you can't use it?

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 10:08 AM

privateSubnetIds is empty

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:09 AM

ok so this is a bug - if you can see that there are private subnets in your account

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:09 AM

then we have a bug in the awsx package

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 10:10 AM

there in console

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:10 AM

100% a bug then

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:10 AM

I know you might not have time now, but can you file an issue when you get a chance?

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:11 AM

there's a big release of the awxs module pending thathas a tonne of fixes...

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:11 AM

I wonder if they will solve your problem...

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 10:12 AM

if its a bug its in

fromExistingIds

because when you create a vpc its fine using

Copy code

const vpc = new awsx.ec2.Vpc("custom", {
    subnets: [{ type: "public" }, { type: "private" }],
});

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:12 AM

i am wondering if its the parenting issue wrt to the VPC

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 10:17 AM

fyi added a check for public ids too and thats empty too

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:18 AM

there we are 🙂

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:18 AM

Copy code

+ privateSubnets: []
  + publicSubnets : []
    xId           : "vpc-866580ff"

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:18 AM

mine are empty too

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:18 AM

this feels like a parenting bug

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 10:18 AM

ok, glad i’m not being an annoying noob then

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:19 AM

you 100% are not

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:19 AM

legit bug

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:19 AM

now whether it's solved by master is the question...

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 10:19 AM

🤞

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 10:43 AM

@broad-dog-22463 is there any ETA on the new release?

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:43 AM

when the team come online today, I will ask when it's going to hit

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:44 AM

I think this feels like a big bug we need to fix for people

broad-dog-22463

07/03/2019, 10:44 AM

can you add a github issue in pulumi/pulumi-awsx so I can point people at this?

glamorous-waitress-51149

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 11:46 AM

i thought i could work around the issue by calling

aws.ec2.getSubnetIds({vpcId: primaryVpcId,})

but problem is the results don’t tell you what type the subnet is eg/private/public/isolated etc 🙂

fresh-summer-65887

07/03/2019, 1:23 PM

@glamorous-waitress-51149 Could we hard code any values in this stack for now?

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/03/2019, 1:23 PM

that’s exactly what i’ve just done

glamorous-waitress-51149

ooh i see a new pulumi version is available @broad-dog-22463 is that a coincidence? 🙂

broad-dog-22463

07/04/2019, 9:02 AM

Of Pulumi-awsx?

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/04/2019, 9:09 AM

no the pulumi binary

broad-dog-22463

07/04/2019, 9:10 AM

I think that’s for something else :)

glamorous-waitress-51149

07/04/2019, 9:11 AM

thought there might have been a massive roll out of everything 😉

broad-dog-22463

07/04/2019, 9:17 AM

nah, not the day before July 4th weekend!
