Question

Bit of a basic question I think How do I access registered outputs of a component after constructing it I have registerOutputs called at the end of my custom component constructor There does not seem to be a `getOutput` or any getter for that matter on the component type

Would a PR be reasonable to allow for a generic version of `ComponentResource lt pulumi Outputs gt ` which provides type safety for registerOutputs and types the class properties

magnificent-lifeguard-15082 · Answer

There s a problem with having to add class property types because typescript will complain that the property is definitely not set in the constructor

magnificent-lifeguard-15082 · Answer

Unless you have to also set the property yourself I was expecting registerOutputs to do this

In a pulumi component you do all the work in the constructor so there is not usually an issue with setting the properties there

miniature-king-36473 · Answer

yes you set the properties of the class yourself in the same way you would for other typescript classes there is no magic going on with register outputs

magnificent-lifeguard-15082 · Answer

If there s no magic what does it do My expectation was that it registerOutputs would be required so that pulumi could correctly understand the dependency graph But then if it s doing that why not set the properties too so I am not having to jump to three places to set an output which is highly error prone property type set the property in constructor call registerOutputs Eg with psuedo `Integration target = myFunctionComponent lambdaArn ` should allow pulumi to say Integration depends on myFunctionComponent and not integration depends on a lambda resource which is supposed to be hidden and encapsulated in the component
