These changes enable tracing of Pulumi API calls.
The span with which to associate an API call is passed via a
`context.Context` parameter. This required plumbing a
`context.Context` parameter through a rather large number of APIs,
especially in the backend.
In general, all API calls are associated with a new root span that
exists for essentially the entire lifetime of an invocation of the
Pulumi CLI. There were a few places where the plumbing got a bit hairier
than I was willing to address with these changes; I've used
`context.Background()` in these instances. API calls that receive this
context will create new root spans, but will still be traced.
Instead of using a shell script to jump from the language host into
node, just invoke node directly. This makes our start-up path a little
simpler to understand and indirectly fixespulumi/home#156, where we
would fail on Windows if the `-exec` script was in a folder that had
spaces in it (due to a subtle interaction between how go launches cmd
files and how cmd.exe parses arguments).
This change moves us away from using JavaScript RTTI, by way of
`instanceof`, for built-in Pulumi types. If we use `instanceof`,
then the same logical type loaded from separate copies of the
SDK package -- as will happen in SxS scenarios -- are considered
different. This isn't actually what we want. The solution is
simple: implement our own quasi-RTTI solution, using __pulumi*
properties and manual as* and is* functions. Note that we could
have skipped the as* and is* functions, but I found that they led
to slightly easier to read code.
There is one strange thing in here, which I spoke to
@CyrusNajmabadi about: SerializedOutput<T>, because it implements
Output<T> as an _interface_, did not previously masquerade as an
actual Output<T>. In other words, `instanceof` would have returned
false, and indeed a few important properties (like promise) are
missing. This change preserves that behavior, although I'll admit
that this is slightly odd. I suspect we'll want to revisit this as
part of https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/1074.
Fixes https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/1203.
Prior to this change, if you ended up with multiple Pulumi SDK
packages loaded side-by-side, we would fail in obscure ways. The
reason for this was that we initialize and store important state
in static variables. In the case that you load the same library
twice, however, you end up with separate copies of said statics,
which means we would be missing engine RPC addresses and so on.
This change adds the ability to recover from this situation by
mirroring the initialized state in process-wide environment
variables. By doing this, we can safely recover simply by reading
them back when we detect that they are missing. I think we can
eventually go even further here, and eliminate the entry point
launcher shim altogether by simply having the engine launch the
Node program with the right environment variables. This would
be a nice simplification to the system (fewer moving pieces).
There is still a risk that the separate copy is incompatible.
Presumably the reason for loading multiple copies is that the
NPM/Yarn version solver couldn't resolve to a shared version.
This may yield obscure failure modes should RPC interfaces change.
Figuring out what to do here is part of pulumi/pulumi#957.
This fixespulumi/pulumi#777 and pulumi/pulumi#1017.
This commit changes two things about our resource model:
* Stop performing Pulumi Engine-side diffing of resource state.
Instead, we defer to the resource plugins themselves to determine
whether a change was made and, if so, the extent of it. This
manifests as a simple change to the Diff function; it is done in
a backwards compatible way so that we continue with legacy diffing
for existing resource provider plugins.
* Add a Read RPC method for resource providers. It simply takes a
resource's ID and URN, plus an optional bag of further qualifying
state, and it returns the current property state as read back from
the actual live environment. Note that the optional bag of state
must at least include enough additional properties for resources
wherein the ID is insufficient for the provider to perform a lookup.
It may, however, include the full bag of prior state, for instance
in the case of a refresh operation.
This is part of pulumi/pulumi#1108.
We need to support the current version of the nodejs language host
running programs that use older version of @pulumi/pulumi where the
runtime expected config keys to look like
`<package>:config:<name>`. In the language host we actually did the
transformation from the new format to the old one, for compatability
reasons but we then droped the transfomed value on the floor.
This API was introduced to aid the refactoring, but it isn't something
we want to support long term. Remove it and for a few places, push
passing config.Key around more, instead of converting to the old type
eagerly.
We now unify new Config("package") and new Config("package:config"),
printing a warning when the new Config("package:config") form is
used and pointing consumers towards just new Config("package")
I've updated our examples to use the newer syntax, but I've added a
test ot the langhost to ensure both forms work.
Fixes#923
* Produce better error messages when the main module is not found
If we fail to load a program's main module, inspect the program's
package.json and attempt to diagnose why the main module load failed.
* Code review feedback: entrypoint -> entry point, call out npm build explicitly, simplify control flow
* Code review feedback: add a little more levity to the unknown exception error message
On Windows, when we launch the language host, it will end up with
a ".exe" file extension at the end of os.Args[0]. This leads us to
produce a garbage filename for the -exec script -- namely,
pulumi-language-nodejs.exe-exec -- which, of course fails. We simply
need to trim off the ".exe" bit before producing the script name.
We have had a long-standing bug in here where we waiting on a
stdout channel that never got populated, when the language plugin
fails to load entirely. This would lead to hung processes. The
fix is simple: only wait for stdout/stderr channels to drain that
have actually been wired up to enjoy the requisite signaling.
This adds support for two things:
* Installing all plugins that a project requires with a single command:
$ pulumi plugin install
* Listing the plugins that this project requires:
$ pulumi plugin ls --project
$ pulumi plugin ls -p
This brings back the Node.js language plugin's GetRequiredPlugins
function, reimplemented in Go now that the language host has been
rewritten from JavaScript. Fairly rote translation, along with
some random fixes required to get tests passing again.
This change adds a GetRequiredPlugins RPC method to the language
host, enabling us to query it for its list of plugin requirements.
This is language-specific because it requires looking at the set
of dependencies (e.g., package.json files).
It also adds a call up front during any update/preview operation
to compute the set of plugins and require that they are present.
These plugins are populated in the cache and will be used for all
subsequent plugin-related operations during the engine's activity.
We now cache the language plugins, so that we may load them
eagerly too, which we never did previously due to the fact that
we needed to pass the monitor address at load time. This was a
bit bizarre anyhow, since it's really the Run RPC function that
needs this information. So, to enable caching and eager loading
-- which we need in order to invoke GetRequiredPlugins -- the
"phone home" monitor RPC address is passed at Run time.
In a subsequent change, we will switch to faulting in the plugins
that are missing -- rather than erroring -- in addition to
supporting the `pulumi plugin install` CLI command.
* experimental: separate language host from node
* Remove langhost details from the NodeJS SDK runtime
* Cleanup
* Work around an issue where Node sometimes loads the same module twice in two different contexts, resulting in two distinct module objects. Some additional cleanup.
* Add some tests
* Fix up the Windows script
* Fix up the install scripts and Windows build
* Code review feedback
* Code review feedback: error capitalization
As documented in issue #616, the inputs/defaults/outputs model we have
today has fundamental problems. The crux of the issue is that our
current design requires that defaults present in the old state of a
resource are applied to the new inputs for that resource.
Unfortunately, it is not possible for the engine to decide which
defaults remain applicable and which do not; only the provider has that
knowledge.
These changes take a more tactical approach to resolving this issue than
that originally proposed in #616 that avoids breaking compatibility with
existing checkpoints. Rather than treating the Pulumi inputs as the
provider input properties for a resource, these inputs are first
translated by `Check`. In order to accommodate provider defaults that
were chosen for the old resource but should not change for the new,
`Check` now takes the old provider inputs as well as the new Pulumi
inputs. Rather than the Pulumi inputs and provider defaults, the
provider inputs returned by `Check` are recorded in the checkpoint file.
Put simply, these changes remove defaults as a first-class concept
(except inasmuch as is required to retain the ability to read old
checkpoint files) and move the responsibilty for manging and
merging defaults into the provider that supplies them.
Fixes#616.
This change adds a new manifest section to the checkpoint files.
The existing time moves into it, and we add to it the version of
the Pulumi CLI that created it, along with the names, types, and
versions of all plugins used to generate the file. There is a
magic cookie that we also use during verification.
This is to help keep us sane when debugging problems "in the wild,"
and I'm sure we will add more to it over time (checksum, etc).
For example, after an up, you can now see this in `pulumi stack`:
```
Current stack is demo:
Last updated at 2017-12-01 13:48:49.815740523 -0800 PST
Pulumi version v0.8.3-79-g1ab99ad
Plugin pulumi-provider-aws [resource] version v0.8.3-22-g4363e77
Plugin pulumi-langhost-nodejs [language] version v0.8.3-79-g77bb6b6
Checkpoint file is /Users/joeduffy/dev/code/src/github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/.pulumi/stacks/webserver/demo.json
```
This addresses pulumi/pulumi#628.
This change switches from child lists to parent pointers, in the
way resource ancestries are represented. This cleans up a fair bit
of the old parenting logic, including all notion of ambient parent
scopes (and will notably address pulumi/pulumi#435).
This lets us show a more parent/child display in the output when
doing planning and updating. For instance, here is an update of
a lambda's text, which is logically part of a cloud timer:
* cloud:timer:Timer: (same)
[urn=urn:pulumi:malta::lm-cloud:☁️timer:Timer::lm-cts-malta-job-CleanSnapshots]
* cloud:function:Function: (same)
[urn=urn:pulumi:malta::lm-cloud:☁️function:Function::lm-cts-malta-job-CleanSnapshots]
* aws:serverless:Function: (same)
[urn=urn:pulumi:malta::lm-cloud::aws:serverless:Function::lm-cts-malta-job-CleanSnapshots]
~ aws:lambda/function:Function: (modify)
[id=lm-cts-malta-job-CleanSnapshots-fee4f3bf41280741]
[urn=urn:pulumi:malta::lm-cloud::aws:lambda/function:Function::lm-cts-malta-job-CleanSnapshots]
- code : archive(assets:2092f44) {
// etc etc etc
Note that we still get walls of text, but this will be actually
quite nice when combined with pulumi/pulumi#454.
I've also suppressed printing properties that didn't change during
updates when --detailed was not passed, and also suppressed empty
strings and zero-length arrays (since TF uses these as defaults in
many places and it just makes creation and deletion quite verbose).
Note that this is a far cry from everything we can possibly do
here as part of pulumi/pulumi#340 (and even pulumi/pulumi#417).
But it's a good start towards taming some of our output spew.
Adds support for top-level exports in the main script of a Pulumi Program to be captured as stack-level output properties.
This create a new `pulumi:pulumi:Stack` component as the root of the resource tree in all Pulumi programs. That resources has properties for each top-level export in the Node.js script.
Running `pulumi stack` will display the current value of these outputs.
Because the Pulumi.yaml file demarcates the boundary used when
uploading a program to the Pulumi.com service at the moment, we
have trouble when a Pulumi program uses "up and over" references.
For instance, our customer wants to build a Dockerfile located
in some relative path, such as `../../elsewhere/`.
To support this, we will allow the Pulumi.yaml file to live
somewhere other than the main Pulumi entrypoint. For example,
it can live at the root of the repo, while the Pulumi program
lives in, say, `infra/`:
Pulumi.yaml:
name: as-before
main: infra/
This fixespulumi/pulumi#575. Further work can be done here to
provide even more flexibility; see pulumi/pulumi#574.
This change formats log messages the same way that Node.js does
in its console.log/error APIs. This ensures, for example, that
errors have their stack printed if present, and switches over to
just printing the error directly rather than manually toStringing it.
Adds OpenTracing in the Pulumi engine and plugin + langhost subprocesses.
We currently create a single root span for any `Enging.plan` operation - which is a single `preview`, `update`, `destroy`, etc.
The only sub-spans we currently create are at gRPC boundaries, both on the client and server sides and on both the langhost and provider plugin interfaces.
We could extend this to include spans for any other semantically meaningful sections of compute inside the engine, though initial examples show we get pretty good granularity of coverage by focusing on the gRPC boundaries.
In the future, this should be easily extensible to HTTP boundaries and to track other bulky I/O like datastore read/writes once we hook up to the PPC and Pulumi Cloud.
We expose a `--trace <endpoint>` option to enable tracing on the CLI, which we will aim to thread through to subprocesses.
We currently support sending tracing data to a Zipkin-compatible endpoint. This has been validated with both Zipkin and Jaeger UIs.
We do not yet have any tracing inside the TypeScript side of the JS langhost RPC interface. There is not yet automatic gRPC OpenTracing instrumentation (though it looks like it's in progress now) - so we would need to manually create meaningful spans on that side of the interface.
This change remembers that we failed due to an uncaught exception,
and defers the process.exit(1) until we actually reach the process's
exit event. This ensures that we drain the message queue before
exiting, which ensures that outbound messages actually reach their
destination.
As part of fixing the exit bug recently, we accidentally made errors
lead to zero exit codes. As a result, the Pulumi CLI thought the
prgoram exited ordinarily, and proceeded to do its usual planning and
deployment, rather than terminating abruptly.
This is a byproduct of how Node's process.uncaughtException handler
works. It hijacks and replaces all usual error logic, including the
process.exit part. This change simply adds back the non-zero exit.
I also added a test (and fixed one other that began failing
afterwards), so that we can prevent regressions down the road.
The `nodejs` language support is implemented as two programs: one that
manages the initial connection to the engine and provides the language
serivce itself, and another that the language service invokes in order
to run a `nodejs` Pulumi program. The latter is responsible for running
the user's program and communicating its resource requests to the
engine. Currently, `run` effectively assumes that the user's program
will run synchronously from start to finish, and will disconnect from
the engine once the user's program has completed. This assumption breaks
if the user's program requires multiple turns of the event loop to
finish its root resource requests. For example, the following program
would fail to create its second resource because the engine will be
disconnected once it reaches its `await`:
```
(async () => {
let a = new Resource();
await somePromise();
let = new Resource();
})();
```
These changes fix this issue by disconnecting from the engine during
process shutdown rather than after the user's program has finished its
first turn through the event loop.
This change adds functions, `pulumi.getProject()` and `pulumi.getStack()`,
to fetch the names of the project and stack, respectively. These can be
handy in generating names, specializing areas of the code, etc.
This fixespulumi/pulumi#429.
A dynamic resource is a resource whose provider is implemented alongside
the resource itself. This provider may close over and use orther
resources in the implementation of its CRUD operations. The provider
itself must be stateless, as each CRUD operation for a particular
dynamic resource type may use an independent instance of the provider.
Changes to the definition of a resource's provider result in replacement
of the resource itself (rather than a simple update), as this allows the
old provider definition to delete the old resource and the new provider
definition to create an appropriate replacement.
This change adds environment variable fallbacks for configuration
variables, such that you can either set them explicitly, as a specific
variable PULUMI_CONFIG_<K>, or an entire JSON serialized bag via
PULUMI_CONFIG.
This is convenient when simply invoking programs at the command line,
via node, e.g.
PULUMI_CONFIG_AWS_CONFIG_REGION=us-west-2 node bin/index.js
Our language host also now uses this to communicate config when invoking
a Run RPC, rather than at the command line. This fixespulumi/pulumi#336.
This resource provider accepts a single configuration parameter, `testing:provider:module`, that is the path to a Javascript module that implements CRUD operations for a set of resource types. This allows e.g. a test case to provide its own implementation of these operations that may succeed or fail in interesting ways.
Fixes#338.
This exposes the existing runtime logging functionality in a way meant
for 3rd-parties to consume. This can be useful if we want to introduce
debug logging, warnings, or other things, that fit nicely with the
Pulumi CLI and overall developer workflow.
This change improves our output formatting by generally adding
fewer prefixes. As shown in pulumi/pulumi#359, we were being
excessively verbose in many places, including prefixing every
console.out with "langhost[nodejs].stdout: ", displaying full
stack traces for simple errors like missing configuration, etc.
Overall, this change includes the following:
* Don't prefix stdout and stderr output from the program, other
than the standard "info:" prefix. I experimented with various
schemes here, but they all felt gratuitous. Simply emitting
the output seems fine, especially as it's closer to what would
happen if you just ran the program under node.
* Do NOT make writes to stderr fail the plan/deploy. Previously
we assumed that any console.errors, for instance, meant that
the overall program should fail. This simply isn't how stderr
is treated generally and meant you couldn't use certain
logging techniques and libraries, among other things.
* Do make sure that stderr writes in the program end up going to
stderr in the Pulumi CLI output, however, so that redirection
works as it should. This required a new Infoerr log level.
* Make a small fix to the planning logic so we don't attempt to
print the summary if an error occurs.
* Finally, add a new error type, RunError, that when thrown and
uncaught does not result in a full stack trace being printed.
Anyone can use this, however, we currently use it for config
errors so that we can terminate with a pretty error message,
rather than the monstrosity shown in pulumi/pulumi#359.
This change flips the polarity on parallelism: rather than having a
--serialize flag, we will have a --parallel=P flag, and by default
we will shut off parallelism. We aren't benefiting from it at the
moment (until we implement pulumi/pulumi-fabric#106), and there are
more hidden dependencies in places like AWS Lambdas and Permissions
than I had realized. We may revisit the default, but this allows
us to bite off the messiness of dependsOn only when we benefit from
it. And in any case, the --parallel=P capability will be useful.
