hi there o/ I see pulumi scripts need to be invoked using a custom runtime, "pulumi". I would be interested in using pulumi as a library, from a custom k8s operator. Is this possible somehow - for example if I run the engine in a separate k8s pod?

Hi, we don’t have an SDK option as of this time - it’s CLI only I’m afraid

Note that you can programmatically shell out to `pulumi` and there are `—json` flags on many cli commands to produce programmatically readable output. Many users are doing this today to “use Pulumi as a library” in programmatic workflows. 

that seemed to be the case, but from the docs I couldnt completely grasp why :slightly_smiling_face: it d be awesome to be able to generate that JSON from a SDK and then just send that to the runtime... some day! Thanks a lot for the replies :+1:
