Hi Alex. Are you trying to deploy a container with Table Storage API?

Hi Mikhail, so after more playing around realised that it just my typescript syntax just creates the CosmosDB account, but no DB.

So what I need to figure out, is the optimal way of creating the Databases and a bunch of tables/containers in it

salmon-beard-79336

so basically need to find the equivalent of these commands in Pulumi

az cosmosdb database create --name MyCosmosDBDatabaseAccount --resource-group MyResourceGroup --db-name MyDatabase

and

az cosmosdb collection delete --collection-name xxx --db-name yyy

The database is easy:

Copy code

const db = new azure.cosmosdb.SqlDatabase("testdb", {
    resourceGroupName: resourceGroup.name,
    accountName: account.name,
});

However, there's no Pulumi resource for Sql Container yet

They need to be added to the Terraform provider first, see https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-azurerm/issues/3506

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:41 AM

ah…. was going to ask how to create a custom resource for that, but terraform is behind

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:41 AM

😕

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:41 AM

I’ll try adapt this then https://github.com/pulumi/examples/blob/95e240cdd174feb4b1660aa5cf6b59bf541289a1/azure-ts-serverless-url-shortener-global/cosmosclient.ts

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:41 AM

do you recommend that approach?

tall-librarian-49374

07/04/2019, 9:42 AM

Yeah, that's what I did

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:42 AM

great, thanks for the feedback Mikhail

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:42 AM

much appreciated

There is a way to wrap a CLI command into a dynamic resource but that's not a trivial thing to do

tall-librarian-49374

07/04/2019, 9:43 AM

I can show you an example if you want to try

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:44 AM

is it the Static Website example?

tall-librarian-49374

07/04/2019, 9:44 AM

yes 🙂

tall-librarian-49374

07/04/2019, 9:45 AM

But you'd have to add deletion if you want to keep it correct

tall-librarian-49374

07/04/2019, 9:46 AM

And upvote the terraform issue above 😉

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:47 AM

yea, that’s what I was thinking… need to be able to delete to. In fact, I have implemented the static website example but the deletion of that is easy because it just deletes the whole storage account

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:48 AM

but yes, need to implement both the ability to create and delete the container

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:48 AM

upvoted

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 9:48 AM

any guidance would be very appreciated

tall-librarian-49374

07/04/2019, 9:58 AM

You just add a call to the CLI delete command in delete method of the dynamic provider

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 10:04 AM

yea, so just like the StaticWebsite custom resource, but with the additional

delete(id, props)

method triggering

az cosmosdb collection delete --collection-name --db-name

tall-librarian-49374

07/04/2019, 11:21 AM

yes (sorry for slow responses)

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 11:27 AM

haha, no worries… much appreciated your support

If you make it work and don't mind sharing, I'd love to use it too!

salmon-beard-79336

07/04/2019, 3:59 PM

absolutely, will update you once I have something working

salmon-beard-79336

07/11/2019, 9:08 AM

Mikhail, this is on hold for a bit as I’ve been pulled to fix some inherited mess. Will get back to it at some point and let you know the outcome

Hello @tall-librarian-49374 I’m running into a few issue trying to put this together. Would you have sometime tomorrow to maybe go over them with me?

Sure! What's your time zone?

It’s about what I posted in #CJ909TL6P, what time would best suit you?
