02/04/2023, 3:50 AM@echoing-activity-32278 if you don't want to use the predefined environment variables or configuration keys, you'll need to create an explicit provider with the auth config:
https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/hcloud/api-docs/provider/
And pass that provider to all resources you wish to use it with, see: https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/resources/providers/#explicit-provider-configuration

02/04/2023, 3:51 AMIs it possible to configure the DEFAULT provider?

02/04/2023, 3:54 AMI am using the python library. If you happen to know, how can I monkey patch and bypass this restriction?

02/04/2023, 3:55 AMI'm not sure, if you were to do that, there's no guarantee it would continue to work - you'd be relying on internals.

02/04/2023, 3:55 AMCan I ask what problem you'd be solving by doing this? That using either Pulumi config or the HCLOUD_TOKEN env var cannot solve.

02/04/2023, 3:56 AMI’d like to use the environment variable approach. But I dpm

02/04/2023, 3:57 AMi don’t want to mess up between stg/prod envs. So better name it as HCLOUD_TOKEN_STG and HCLOUD_TOKEN_PROD

02/04/2023, 3:58 AMI see, I can recommend using the Pulumi config approach then! You can set your prod stack to one value, and your staging stack to the other.
