Question

Hey guys I am trying to use Pulumi in Azure Dev Ops release pipeline and I am receiving this `error no resource plugin pulumi nodejs found in the workspace or on your $PATH` every time I try to run `pulumi preview` In this pipeline I am using the <https www pulumi com docs get started install installation script|installation script >but I can t change the PATH Therefore I am adding the path of the installation to `PULUMI HOME` as `C lt path gt pulumi` I am running pulumi as ` lt path gt pulumi bin pulumi exe` Even after all that the error about not finding the plugin is still happening Any idea

looks like the postinstall script is failing You could try to manually install the resource plugin by `pulumi plugin install`

Got it < future morning 96441> Where can I see the list of plugins I can install In this case I need to install the `pulumi nodejs` but I need the KIND and VERSION infos to install it

I believe you can try just running `pulumi plugin install` iirc we have this statement in our ci script and it tries to install the correct plugins

did `pulumi plugin install` print any errors is `PULUMI HOME` set as well when the command gets executed

shy-exabyte-78907 · Answer

Prints nothing just finishes successfully and yes the `PULUMI HOME` is set to this command as well

It seems that the `PULUMI HOME` is not being used for some reason

shy-exabyte-78907 · Answer

It shows an empty list after the `pulumi plugin install`

We used bitbucket pipelines and are currently moving to gitlab ci where we do the following steps iirc use install script move the installed files to another dir which can be accessed easier export PULUMI HOME add pulumi dir to PATH other irrelevant stuff npm i pulumi plugin install someSetupScriptToCalculateMoreEnvironmentVars sh pulumi update s $PULUMI STACK NAME
