Project name comes from

Pulumi.yaml

.

I was trying to follow other examples and it seems all of them had

name: ${PROJECT}

I created a new folder for the new template, added the files, and then tried

pulumi up

in that directory (only config I did was

export AIVEN_TOKEN=XXXXXXXX

)

Are you running

pulumi up

directly in the template dir?

yeah, directly in the newly created template directory.

I've never written a template so IDK for sure, but what you're doing may not be possible. You might have to push it to git and then

pulumi new <https://github.com>......

in order to test.

ah I see. so

pulumi new <https://github.com/dewan-ahmed/pulumi-templates/tree/master/aiven-typescript>

?

Yeah, something like that

thanks Josh, much appreciated. So some success here:

pulumi new <https://github.com/dewan-ahmed/pulumi-templates/tree/master/aiven-typescript>

actually asked me about a project name (so no longer complained about the missing $PROJECT), and other details, and then apparently created the resource after I did

pulumi up

. Strangely enough, I don’t see the resource being created on the Aiven console 🤔

Try

pulumi new /path/to/template

. It does not appear to be documented, but people who know said it works.

sweet! I was actually doing ⬇️ without realizing that this is the confirmation step 😄

Do you want to perform this update? no

resources are created successfully. I’ll send in a few PRs next week 🙌🏽 thanks a bunch

Thank you for your contribution!

pulumi up -y

will auto-confirm. (Obviously not recommended for production infra.)
