Pulumi Programming Model

• Pulumi Concepts

Overview

In Pulumi, infrastructure resources are described programmatically in a program, that gets executed by the pulumi preview/pulumi up command, and expresses the desired state of the infrastructure.. The Pulumi runtime builds a graph

Deleting an Infrastructure Resource in Code

I think there is a misunderstanding here. Apologies if the below info is redundant, but I think we can clear this up. Pulumi uses a statefile to capture a “current” state of resources contained in the current stack, from a physical cloud provider perspective and a pulumi metadata perspective. The statefile is just that, a file or dumb storage that is the result of a pulumi up. When you execute a pulumi up against a Pulumi program, Pulumi is taking the existing statefile (if one exists) and comparing it to the desired state, which is declared by the code in your Pulumi program. So what is happening here is, you’ve imported the resource into your Pulumi state and you’ve not included the resource definition (in code) in your Pulumi program. So when you run a pulumi up Pulumi looks at the statefile, sees the datadog dashboard and compares it with your code, which does not contain the resource definition and correctly determines it needs to delete the resource The Pulumi programming model defines the core concepts in use when creating infrastructure as code programs. These concepts are made available in the Pulumi SDKs, that support Python, TypeScript and Go.

Start with Programming Model https://kb.novaordis.com/index.php/Pulumi_Concepts#Programming_Model as a central place to specify that while the “program” runs, the program builds a model of the infrastructure that is then synchronized with the infrastructure platform. Remove “Code Example” https://kb.novaordis.com/index.php/Pulumi_Concepts#Code_Examples section work out https://kb.novaordis.com/index.php/Python_Pulumi_Code_Examples page into the “Programming Model” Move the content of “Python Pulumi Code Examples” in-line into the “Programming Model” section and resolve the links pointing to the “Python Pulumi Code Examples” Link to https://kb.novaordis.com/index.php/Pulumi_Datadog_DashboardJson#Internal Programming Model. Describe in detail these two models (the second if we don’t want to change anything)

Understand the difference between stack configuration and stack output.
