What’s the best way to convert

foo.Arn

(pulumi.StringOutput) to

string

? I’m kind of lost here and I cannot find any working example 😕 I’m trying to make it work with

foo.Arn.ApplyT(func(arn string) string { … }

but somehow it’s not working for me.

you can’t convert a

StringOutput

to a string

ohh ok, so looks like I’m trying to do something wrong…

you can only resolve it and then do something with it inside an Apply

I’m getting

roleArn

from user and it’s a string. So I’m doing something like:

if role.RoleArn == "" { }

to check if there is a RoleArn. If not I’m creating it and adding to one of the policy:

data := tmpArn{
		Version: "2012-10-17",
		Statement: []Statement{
			{
				Effect: "Allow",
				Principal: Principal{
					Aws: RoleArn,
				},
				Action: "sts:AssumeRole",
			},
		},
	}

okay yeah, you need to build that inside an apply: https://github.com/lbrlabs/pulumi-aws-tailscale/blob/main/provider/pkg/provider/bastion.go#L79-L90

why?

because Pulumi is declarative, if it doesn’t exist you should create it. if it does exist you should import it
