11/22/2022, 9:43 AM"Pulumi schemas"? Just out of curiosity, what are you expecting to get if such a functionality exists?
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:44 AMI'm asking this because OpenAPI spec defines a way to describe REST APIs etc in a way that it is easy to generate documentation for it and to generate client stubs etc
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:44 AMPulumi is about infrastructure
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:45 AMIt does not correspond to application logic in any way. Or well, if used within an application in automation mode then kinda, but basically no.

11/22/2022, 9:46 AMThanks for getting back to me. By Pulumi schemas, I’m referring to the schemas used to generate SDK code, found here: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/guides/pulumi-packages/schema/.

11/22/2022, 9:47 AMMy question really is, given something like an AWS OpenAPI spec, is there a way to generate schema for functionality like creating a bucket etc?

gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:47 AMRight so you want to create a new provider?

11/22/2022, 9:47 AMFor Your Own Public Cloud(tm) or similar?

delightful-fall-80513
11/22/2022, 9:48 AMYeah, investingating different options at the moment

gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:48 AMOk, well that is a not so typical use case but totally valid one
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:49 AMBut I think community in general has very little experience on that, I guess Pulumi devs can hop in at some point
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:49 AMBut in general Pulumi supports several languages and one of the main reasons why it can do that is since the providers are auto-generated
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:50 AMSo I would lean towards "yes it is possible" but I'm not sure if it is something that is easy to do yourself

delightful-fall-80513
11/22/2022, 9:51 AMRight, I see. I was brought to wonder if schemas were generated after briefly looking at the schema for the AWS provider. Its obiously possible for that to be written by hand but I was curious if it happened to be generated based on, as mentioned, something like an open api spec or similar. For us this would greatly decrease the amount of work we have to do. Maybe it is a bit of a pipe dream though 🙂
g
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:52 AMI'm sure those are generated but I have no idea how much setup that pipeline needs
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:53 AMBut for AWS there is no reason to generate anything, it's already there. But I guess that was just an example and your real use case is for something else
d
delightful-fall-80513
11/22/2022, 9:53 AMYeah, was an example
delightful-fall-80513
11/22/2022, 9:53 AMThanks anyway for the help, any idea where else I could go to seek an answer? Maybe Git issues?
g
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:54 AMJust wait until devs pop by and notice this 🙂
gorgeous-country-43026
11/22/2022, 9:54 AMThey hang around here but obviously aren't here 24/7

delightful-fall-80513
11/22/2022, 9:54 AMOk, great. Thanks

@delightful-fall-80513 it’s feasible yes. The Native providers like Kubernetes operate by downloading the spec (in Kubernetes case, swagger) and then transforming it into a Pulumi schema:

Azure Native uses OpenAPI: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-azure-native/blob/master/provider/cmd/pulumi-gen-azure-native/main.go
