What would be the recommended pattern to have

async

"things" happening inside of a ComponentResource? I need to use await and inside of the constructor, AFAIK, is not possible.

I've had success wrapping the awaited call in

pulumi.output()

(instead of await)

that doesn't work for me... I need to get a parameter from AWS' parameter store and then use it as a parameter to look for an EKS instance. But the

getCluster

API requires a

string

and not an

Output<string>

I've seen some patterns like having a promise field in the ComponentResource and then do

const r = new MyResource();
await r.ready

it's suboptimal... but seems to be the most reasonably way
