Question

Hi everyone slightly smiling face I read <https www pulumi com docs troubleshooting faq does pulumi support automatic rollback in the event of an error or failure|the FAQ on error handling> I like that this is the first question but I m still left wondering Can you define custom deploy time error handling logic in Pulumi For example if I hit some CloudFront API rate limit with a `pulumi up` can I define error handling that says Wait thirty seconds if you get this error code and retry only once in a way that I can unit test with something like `jest`

Please let me know if how I can be more helpful in my GitHub issue description heart I really care a lot about this use case as I ve been so disappointed by pretty much every IaC tool that seems like it could never support it Maybe it s just a bad idea to begin with But if so I really want to learn why

No it s a fair feature request I m really surprised I can t find any other issues about it because I m sure it s come up before

I wouldn t be surprised if it never has As far as I ve seen there hasn t been much of a discussion about unit testable and custom deploy time error handling in the IaC community It seems like we ve converged on templates and DSLs where that sort of thing seems really hard to implement To me it s one of those Is everyone crazy or just me sorts of things Hits you right in the impostor syndrome laughing But I think Pulumi challenges a lot of traditional thought in that community in a really exciting way
