Hi Everyone.
I am using pulumi and azure python sdk.
I want to spread the resources creation across several python files, so I have:
```__main__.py
azure-appservice.py```
But it seems my code is only executed when it is in `__main__.py` and  the resources defined on  `azure-appservice.py` are not readed when I execute `pulumi up` command.

Is there a way to use more than one python file similar to terraform?

you can't have it read all the files, but you can import from other files, and separate the resources into components.
See here:

and here:

<https://github.com/jaxxstorm/pulumi-nginx-demo/blob/main/nginx-ingress/__main__.py#L45>

the way terraform works sorta violates the "principal of least surprise" to me, executing random files you haven't explicitly imported

you'll notice the import here:

<@UCWG26BH7>  thanks, it makes sense under modularity perspective.
