FWIW my code is here: https://github.com/cucumber/github-settings/blob/main/.github/workflows/drift.yaml Here's the makefile: https://github.com/cucumber/github-settings/blob/main/Makefile It does three stages: 1. go to GitHub's API to fetch the resources, and format them into a shape that

pulumi import

can read (in

import/resources

) 2. use

pulumi import

to generate TypeScript files for each resource type (in

import/src

) 3. run a

pulumi preview

on the TypeScript files to parse them into a summary output. If there's a simpler way to do this I'd love to hear about it!

Can you leverage

jq

and its sort capabilities?

Yeah, that's going to be my next port of call, I just wondered if there was a pattern for doing this kind of thing in Pulumi itself. It seems like checking for drift would be a fairly common problem.

No, pretty rare 🙂 I've never checked for drift. Pulumi manages that for me.

Any time drift gets detected manually, we have a little blameless post-mortem and put effort into reducing the risk of it happening again.

You mean because you just never touch the stuff manually?

In this instance we're managing GitHub settings, so the likelyhood of drift is pretty high.
