Hmm, I need to add the ALB (ingress) address to route53. One approach was to reference the ALB using

static get()

but there is no way of knowing the name of the ALB created. Another approach is to print the ingress using kubectl and use the address with https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-query-kubernetes But the question is, is it lazy? As if will it wait until the cluster has been setup?

This is for an ALB created by Kubernetes on your behalf? Can you read

ingress.status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].hostname

off of the ingress object?

You mean using kube-query or by using a static get method on network/beta1/ingress?

I mean just from within your Pulumi program. Get the

ingress

object that created with on your behalf (if it's from Helm,

getResource

on the chart). If ALB Ingress allows your to bring-your-own-ALB, that definitely gives you much more control (I wish more Kubernetes things were like that).

Oh, I can access the ingress from the chart? I did not know that.

Yes - reading ingress.status should be the same as reading the corresponding entry of kubectl get ingress.

Perfect.

Great catch on the blog post.

Was halfway through creating ALB from scratch over ClusterIP and an Ingress, lol.

Would you mind opening a GitHub issue in the pulumi/docs repo about the blog post? (Including what there is deprecated?).

To be clear

new k8s.extensions.v1beta1.Deployment

is marked deprecated by you, not by K8.

Yep - got it - thought you meant something in the ALB Ingress itself.
