Heya Chris! Guess what my newest project is going to be? lol I just received a work laptop, and I want to see if I can install my dev tools strictly with Nix. I… doubt I’ll get that far, but I’m going to start with Pulumi. I thought someone on my team had some success with Nix and Pulumi. I could be mistaking Nix with gitpod. I’ll ask about it.
I guess in your case you want to manage plugins with nix too?

Correct!
pulumi-bin
and
python39.pkgs.pulumi
are both find and working but sadly when attempting to use
pulumi-aws
I've no luck. It's marked as broken firstly in the nix repo so I tried building myself with
python39.pkgs.makePythonLibrary
(or whatever it was called) but cannot seem to figure out where this is getting output and then python cannot find
pulumi_aws
module to import.

Hm, gotcha. Have you opened an issue about this? (I”m not quite sure where this would go. I don’t think we maintain any nix packages directly?) I know next to nothing about the nix ecosystem. Hoping to learn in the next two weeks when I set up my laptop.

Nothing yet as I did see that the nix packaging side was community maintained
For now I've just fallen back on a local pip env install
