ec2.Vpc.getSubnets

returns a

Promise<ec2.Subnet[]>

as opposed to an

Output<ec2.Subnet>[]

. Is this safe to use as an arg (Input) to a subsequent resource where I need to provide a subnet id?

we have the new

ec2.Vpc.getSubnetsOutput

which might be more helpful in this scenario

Ah, doesn't look like it's on my version awsx.Vpc (sorry should've mentioned this is awsx)

oh, sorry yes it's not in there yet

yeah sounds like bad things will occur 😅

What @magnificent-lifeguard-15082 suggested worked as a charm ❤️

const publicSubnetsIds = vpc.id.apply(async () => vpc.getSubnetsIds("public"));

and then I use it like this:

const alb = new aws.lb.LoadBalancer(`${name}-alb`, {
      internal: false,
      loadBalancerType: "application",
      securityGroups: [albSecGroup.id],
      subnets: publicSubnetsIds.apply((ids) => ids),
    });

Thanks a bunch, @magnificent-lifeguard-15082!

publicSubnetsIds.apply((ids) => ids),

is the same as just

publicSubnetsIds

hmhmh, this confuses me my IDEA says something else:

does this not work?

const alb = new aws.lb.LoadBalancer(`${name}-alb`, {
      internal: false,
      loadBalancerType: "application",
      securityGroups: [albSecGroup.id],
      subnets: publicSubnetsIds
    });

Oh, got it - it does 😄
