How can I have

pulumi up

create a single resource? There is the

-t

flag but my understanding is that the resource doesn’t have a URN yet, so I’m not sure what I would target. I have some other things that would be updated with

pulumi up

, and I want to make sure I only create this one thing and not run the other updates.

hmm, I think the only way is to separate this into its own project, or use a config flag on the stack to enable it

I’m trying to add a new resource to a stack. I want to run

pulumi up

to add it to the stack, but I don’t want pulumi to update other resources as part of (e.g. helm charts that would be updated)

Have you made any code changes? It should only update if your code for the helm chart has changed

the helm chart has changed.

pulumi up

shows a bunch of things that would be updated. I don’t want to update them yet - I only want to create the new resource that I added to my pulumi config

@many-spring-73557 - this was a good question, I didn't know the answer. It turns out, urns are predictable, so you can still use

-t

i grabbed the urn of the resource being created using

jq

but you can probably just run

pulumi preview

and copy it

pulumi preview -j | jq '.steps[] | select(.op=="create") | .urn'

and then run

pulumi up -t <urn>

ah, cool.

pulumi preview

doesn’t provide an urn (anywhere that I can see) but

-j

does

you have to expand the
