Need a memory refresher, but wen I create a stack, do a create the yaml file manually in my project?

pulumi stack init

will create the stack and the yaml file! https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/cli/pulumi_stack_init/

hmm pulumi stack init didnt make a yaml file for me? i do it in the dir of the vs solution and the stack name is gurdips1/prd

I remember being tripped up on this myself! The stack-config file actually only gets created if there’s stack-config to be applied — so if you run

pulumi config set

. Otherwise, no

Pulumi.stackname.yaml

will be created.

ah yes! awesome, i better remember this! in fact i think i asked this before! thanks guys!

Aha, and I even wrote a note about it in the docs: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/stack/#create-stack

Oof. That's what I get for trying to help from my poor memory! I guess I needed the refresher too 😂😂
