Need a pointer (no pun intended) on this issue: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/discussions/8939 Getting mixed up on string pointer/input/output.

@chilly-plastic-75584 it’ll be a bit easier to help if you’re able to share some more code snippets of what you’re trying to do.
On my hand, have something like:
Copy code
myConfigMap, err := corev1.NewConfigMap(ctx, "my-configmap", &corev1.ConfigMapArgs{
And then use it like this:
Copy code
corev1.EnvFromSourceArray{
		&corev1.EnvFromSourceArgs{
			ConfigMapRef: &corev1.ConfigMapEnvSourceArgs{
				Name: DefaultConfig.Metadata.Name(),
			},
		},
		&corev1.EnvFromSourceArgs{
			ConfigMapRef: &corev1.ConfigMapEnvSourceArgs{
				Name: Config.Metadata.Name(),
			},
		},
DefaultConfig
and 
Config
are basically the 
myConfigMap
(just exported in anoher variable)

Updated github question with code snippets. Looking at what you provided as well, cheers
Added last item to end, issue with
Copy code
ResourceNames: pulumi.StringArray{
					cfgMap.Metadata.Name(),  // 👈 THIS cannot use cfgMap.Metadata.Name() (value of type pulumi.StringPtrOutput) as pulumi.StringInput value in array or slice literal: missing method ToStringOutput
				},
Close! I updated to use config.metatadata.name and all but the last item seem to be working

Your code snippet uses 
generatedConfigMapName
but doesn’t set it anywhere
Use this: 
Metadata.Name().Elem()
I’m also not quite sure what you mean about letting deployment do it in any order.

I figured the order of dependencies is calculated by pulumi. However, in this case I need to explicitly have a generated output name from the config map so thought I might need to run an Apply to then export the configMap name for usage in the rest of the plan. I will try what you just said

It should not be necessary to do an Apply, this is a pretty normal use case.
This is one area for Go’s type system is getting in the way.

Copy code
ResourceNames: pulumi.StringArray{
					// CfgMap.Metadata.Name(),.
					cfgMap.Metadata.Name().Elem(),
				},
This gave no error
I'm trying now
NICE

Are you on github so I can mention your username in the answer in github discussions?

Happy to help - thought it’d be faster here than GitHub 🙂

Yeah. I'm kinda zealous on putting in github even if i chat in slack because I believe that the lack of visibility and searching to others makes slack a walled garden compared to the repo. Helpful to do here, but I want to save my problem/answer there so others benefit hopefully. Thank you for the quick help

For sure, kudos to you for doing that.
