*resource hooks seem broken on non-AWS ?*

I am trying to use a resource hook in Go with Hetzner Cloud (hcloud).
To the best of my understanding, I adapted the Go example at <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/iac/concepts/resources/options/hooks/#health-checking-example|pulumi.com/docs/…/hooks#…> from AWS to Hetzner Cloud and I get the following error:
```error: after hook "health-check" failed:
rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = error reading from server: EOF```
I opened issue <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/24158|github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/24158>
Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug ?
thanks!

This looks like a bug, I don't think there's anything wrong with the code shown on the issue.

Alright, partly an us bug, partly a you bug.
The hook function panic'd and that tore down the whole process, that's a bug on us, I'm getting that fixed so a panic in a hook just reports the hook as failed not EOF.
Your bug is that a hcloud server doesn't have a publicIp field so the line `publicIp := args.NewOutputs["publicIp"].StringValue()` panics trying to call `StringValue()` on a nil value.

Thanks for the quick confirmation Fraser!

>  Your bug is that a hcloud server doesn't have a publicIp field so the line `publicIp := args.NewOutputs["publicIp"].StringValue()` panics trying to call `StringValue()` on a nil value.
I think that the error on my part was keeping the string `"publicIp"` when exporting the existing field `server.Ipv6Address`:

```ctx.Export("publicIp", server.Ipv6Address)```
(see towards the end of the main() function in the issue)

So I think that the code doesn't panic, because the string  "publicIp" should be present in   `args.NewOutputs["publicIp"]` ?

Is anything else that I should do to help the issue to be triaged ?

args.NewOutputs is the new outputs of the resource running against the hook, which in your code is the `hcloud.NewServer`. The `ctx.Export` is to set the _stack_ outputs, not the _resource_ outputs.
If you change that string to "ipv6Address" it should see the output on the server.
