export interface CosmosContainerArgs {
    region: pulumi.Input<string>;
    endpoint: pulumi.Input<string>;
    masterKey: pulumi.Input<string>;
    client: any;
}

class MyResource extends pulumi.dynamic.Resource {
    constructor(name: string, props: MyResourceInputs, opts?: pulumi.CustomResourceOptions) {
        let region = args.region;
        let endpoint = args.endpoint;
        let masterKey = args.masterKey;

        let connectionPolicy = new cosmos.ConnectionPolicy();
        connectionPolicy.PreferredLocations = [args.region];

        const client = new cosmos.CosmosClient({
            endpoint,
            auth: { masterKey },
            connectionPolicy,
        });

        args.client = client;

        super(myprovider, name, props, opts); 
    }
}

Trying to initialise a custom client in the resource constructor, so the I can pass it on to the provider to work with. What is the best way to approach this? The above fails because

arg.region

returns

Promise

Type 'Input<string>' is not assignable to type 'string'.
  Type 'Promise<string>' is not assignable to type 'string'.

You will most likely want to construct this client inside your CRUD implementations (or in a helper they call) using information passed in as arguments. When the data arrives at your CRUD implementations it will be raw `strings`s, not

Input<string>

.

but a

constructor

in the

ResourceProvider

that deals with all the CRUD implementations, will mess with the arguments that’s receiving from what I’ve noticed. How do you suggest doing it? Any example I can have a look at?

I'm online now, let me have a look

it was a very weird thing that I managed to resolve by clearing out a bit the state file… but definitely there was something in there cached
