I guess subprocessing out to the CLI is the only way -- very disappointing 😞 Looks like it could be possible to extend the LocalWorkspace class though and add a

set_path_config

method or something.

@billowy-army-68599 https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/commit/56e12e9140b5a7ec41aa7215588685b1ca8db889 are commits like these, where someone adds these automation API extras, generated, or does each languages' SDK require its own adaptation? Basically, I didn't see any comments about pulumigen in these files, so I wasn't sure how that worked, contributing-wise?

@billowy-army-68599 for what it's worth, I found myself making a helper method that did this:

def disable_default_providers(stack: auto.Stack) -> None:
    """
    Runs the pulumi cmd to disable all default providers.
    """
    stack._run_pulumi_cmd_sync(
        args=[
            "config",
            "set",
            "--path",
            "pulumi:disable-default-providers[0]",
            "*",
        ]
    )

I wonder if it makes sense to open up the

_run_pulumi_cmd_sync

method to be 'public' for custom use-cases where the context of the stack would be beneficial, but there's no built in support for handling some of the CLI components.

Obviously there'd be some warranty here of "here be dragons, and you could break the intended context some how"
