Is anyone working on a Grafana provider?
s
I’m not aware of anyone having done so!
Are you thinking of using the Terraform bridge to wrap the TF provider?
q
The Terraform provider always breaks when I use it. I'm hoping I can do something slightly more robust with Pulumi
I've had to comment out my dashboard management with the Terraform provider because it keeps saying the resources are missing
s
Hmm, thats not very good
As far as I’m aware, no-one is working on that, I’m sure it would be welcomed!
q
I'll take a stab at it 👍
s
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
Feel free to ping if you hit problems or need help/guidance
q
Thanks, @stocky-spoon-28903
@stocky-spoon-28903 Are there docs / examples for writing a Pulumi provider?
s
I don’t think there are docs at this point (it’s on the roadmap) - the best example of a non-Terraform provider is the Kubernetes provider that @creamy-potato-29402 has built.
q
I just realised your James Nugent, of Terraform; right?
s
Correct!
q
We got rather inebriated together in Edinburgh after DevOps Edinburgh one evening, should you recall 😂
s
Ohhh yes I remember missing my flight the next morning.
q
Ooops!
c
lol
hilarious.
@quiet-wolf-18467 happy to answer questions about the provider interface. It’s not a lot of code, but the semantics are not specified anywhere, which means you just have to board the strugglebus and power through it.
q
Is the OpenFaaS provider a good baseline to follow?
c
It might be! I don’t know how far along it is. It looks like it’s approximately what you want though.
