Pulumi Python Examples

Goals

Pulumi Python examples used to explore issues and approaches

• Infrastructure as Code - Define all infrastructure using tooling such as Pulumi

Setup

Install required software and setup environment

Pulumi

The Infrastructure as Code tool.

• Install Pulumi

AWS

An AWS account and the AWS CLI

• Install AWS CLI version 2

Python

• Install Python3
• setup virtual environment
  • cd to example1 and create virtual env
  • virtualenv venv
  • source venv/bin/activate

Building Dev Cluster

• Deploy infrasturcture
  • create an S3 bucket and a prefix (folder) for storing your pulumi state
  • export PULUMI_CONFIG_PASSPHRASE=""
  • pulumi --non-interactive login s3://<bucket>/<prefix>
  • pulumi --non-interactive stack select -c example-one
  • pulumi up

Running unittests

Reading Pulumi issues, documentation and blogs, I think this should work:

export PULUMI_PYTHON_PROJECT=example-one
export PULUMI_PYTHON_STACK=example-one
export PULUMI_CONFIG=$(yq eval Pulumi.${PULUMI_PYTHON_STACK}.yaml --output-format=json | jq -c '.config')
pytest

But it fails

ERROR test_server.py - pulumi.config.ConfigMissingError: Missing required configuration variable 'project:application'
