Howdy all, Are there any consensus on how to update an existing Kubernetes ConfigMap from Pulumi. It is the usual CoreDNS configuration in a EKS based cluster 🙂 I'm trying to do an import then update cycle via automation, but I'm not having too much success with this.

what kind of problem do you have?
I’d say importing it and start managing it within pulumi seems like the easiest way to do that.

I want to avoid all manual steps... So... • I have a Python script that creates all the parts - VPC, subnets, security groups, VPN connections, peering, EKS, monitoring, etc... • I invoke Pulumi via the automation API - this allows we to find a number of values first in a configuration file (like regions, users, type of cluster (production/test/ci), etc) • I can invoke Pulumi up several times if needed - to import the CM the first time and then change the data part of the CM in the next round • I get all green lights from pulumi preview • but I get the error "inputs to import do not match the existing resource" from pulumi up. I will try to create a minimal example.
I got it to work... The trick it is use proper ignore_changes. This small AWS example illustrates my "solution":

variant = pulumi.Config().require('variant')
<http://pulumi.log.info|pulumi.log.info>(f"{variant=}")

# No default VPC

if variant == 'just-import':
    k8s.core.v1.ConfigMap(
        rname,
        metadata={
            'namespace': 'kube-system',
            'name': 'coredns',
        },
        opts=pulumi.ResourceOptions(
            provider=kubernetes_provider,
            import_='kube-system/coredns',
            ignore_changes=['data', 'metadata.annotations', 'metadata.labels']
        )
    )

elif variant == 'declare':
    k8s.core.v1.ConfigMap(
        rname,
        metadata={
            'namespace': 'kube-system',
            'name': 'coredns',

        data={

        opts=pulumi.ResourceOptions(
            provider=kubernetes_provider,

        )
    )
I run this project twice via automation. • First with variant="just-import", which will import the wanted ConfigMap • Then with variant="declare", which will change the data of the map For unknown reasons it does a delete-create operation instead of a fix... but at least it works for now.
Forgot... the trick is to use the proper ignore_changes=[...] in the ResourceOptions
