Pulumi Community

Hi all! I'm setting up pulumi with github actions, I installed the pulumi github app but I cannot see any comments on the PR that triggers the workflow nor the checks integration. Any ideas?

:wave: Did you follow this guide? <https://github.com/pulumi/actions>

In that case, there shouldn't be a need for the Pulumi Github App. Just make sure to set `comment-on-pr` to `true`  :slightly_smiling_face:

I followed the guide and got github actions to make the comment. But I wanted to use the app since it looks a bit nicer

The github app was installed, but it just seems to do nothing? This is not the expected behaviour

Not sure if it works any longer, since the new Github Actions is using Pulumi Automation API. I like the feedback about it looking nicer, which part do you think we can improve on?

I also installed the Pulumi GitHub App and didn't get it working. The comment-on-pr works, but I thought the GitHub App seemed to look a little bit nicer and integrated (using the checks api sounds better than just the PR comment)

I made a fork of it a while back if you have any questions.

If the github app doesn't work it should surely be removed from the official documentation?

<@UMP2PT80L> I think the pulumi logo on pulumi comments looks nice and make sure it doesn't get lost in the other github actions comments on a PR (SonarQube etc.) The integration with the checks API also makes it stand out compared to just using the github actions comment

Nice, I can open an issue to see if we could improve on that. How would you like Checks API to work? I dream of using annotations to give errors/output on the line number of the resource. I can post the issue here when I create it, maybe you could leave you thoughts there? :slightly_smiling_face:

I suggest removing the github app from docs until it works. <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/guides/continuous-delivery/github-actions/|This> makes it seem that the github app is the default and preferred method, even though it doesn't work.

I LOVE your idea, that is the dream indeed. I'll follow the issue closely
