so, you're using the pulumi image from inside a container running the

docker:dind

image?

I want to install and run pulumi in my Gitlab runner.

oh, then skip

docker:dind

can you elaborate please?

GitLab lets you specify any image

ALright let me look into it

so use

pulumi/pulumi

(https://hub.docker.com/r/pulumi/pulumi) or define your own by having a Dockerfile like:

FROM python:latest
RUN curl -fsSL <https://get.pulumi.com> | sh

(Substitute the appropriate base image of your choice) If you make a new repo with just a

Dockerfile

and turn on auto devops, GitLab will build the image and upload it to gitlab container registry. For extra fun, set up a pipeline schedule and rebuild it nightly/weekly/etc.
