coming from golang, I see several types of things in providers, some take "resource options" and others take "invoke options"

invokable api functions act immediately, and return primitive values

resource api functions act like promises

I understand both, and both make perfect sense

I'm just looking for an ability to have a resource return both promises and primitive values

the primitives would would be restricted to things known at compile/run-time (applies at both preview & up operations)

the schema never explicitly references pulumi’s “promise” types (input/output), yet when declaring

string

as a result, it implicitly means “StringOutput” (as an example). I was looking for how do I provide a “plain” string. 🙂 just writing it all out here incase someone else comes across this thread
