The glog package force the use of golang's underyling flag package,
which Cobra does not use. To work around this, we had a complicated
dance around defining flags in multiple places, calling flag.Parse
explicitly and then stomping values in the flag package with values we
got from Cobra.
Because we ended up parsing parts of the command line twice, each with
a different set of semantics, we ended up with bad UX in some
cases. For example:
`$ pulumi -v=10 --logflow update`
Would fail with an error message that looked nothing like normal CLI
errors, where as:
`$ pulumi -v=10 update --logflow`
Would behave as you expect. To address this, we now do two things:
- We never call flag.Parse() anymore. Wacking the flags with values we
got from Cobra is sufficent for what we care about.
- We use a forked copy of glog which does not complain when
flag.Parse() is not called before logging.

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 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.
This change introduces a workspace.GetPluginPath function that probes
the central workspace cache of plugins for a matching plugin binary that
matches the desired kind, name, and, optionally, version. It also permits
overriding this with $PATH for developer scenarios.
The analyzer, language, and resource plugin logic now uses this function
for deciding which binary path to load at runtime.
This change just flows the project's "main" directory all the way
through to the plugins, fixing #667. In that work item, we discussed
alternative approaches, such as rewriting the asset paths, but this
is tricky because it's very tough to do without those absolute paths
somehow ending up in the checkpoint files. Just launching the
processes with the right pwd is far easier and safer, and it turns
out that, conveniently, we set up the plugin context in exactly the
same place that we read the project information.
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.
The first exception relates to how we launch plugins. Plugin paths are
calculated using a well-known set of rules; this makes `gas` suspicious
due to the need to use a variable to store the path of the plugin.
The second and third are in test code and aren't terribly concerning.
The latter exception asks `gas` to ignore the access key we hard-code
into the integration tests for our Pulumi test account.
The fourth exception allows use to use more permissive permissions for
the `.pulumi` directory than `gas` would prefer. We use `755`; `gas`
wants `700` or stricter. `755` is the default for `mkdir` and `.git` and
so seems like a reasonable choice for us.
This change adds back component output properties. Doing so
requires splitting the RPC interface for creating resources in
half, with an initial RegisterResource which contains all of the
input properties, and a final CompleteResource which optionally
contains any output properties synthesized by the component.
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.
These changes introduce a new field, `Raw`, to `diag.Message`. This
field indicates that the contents of the message are not a format string
and should not be rendered via `Sprintf` during stringification.
The plugin std{out,err} readers have been updated to use raw messages,
and the event reader in `pulumi` has been fixed s.t. it does not format
event payloads before display.
Fixes#551.
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.
On windows, we have to indirect through a batch file to launch plugins,
which means when we go to close a plugin, we only kill cmd.exe that is
running the batch file and not the underlying node process. This
prevents `pulumi` from exiting cleanly. So on Windows, we also kill any
direct children of the plugin process
Fixes#504
If a plugin fails to load after we've set up the goroutines that copy
from its std{out,err} streams, then those goroutines can end up writing
to a closed event channel. This change ensures that we properly drain
those streams in this case.
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 includes a few changes:
* The repo name -- and hence the Go modules -- changes from pulumi-fabric to pulumi.
* The Node.js SDK package changes from @pulumi/pulumi-fabric to just pulumi.
* The CLI is renamed from lumi to pulumi.
There's a fair bit of clean up in here, but the meat is:
* Allocate the language runtime gRPC client connection on the
goroutine that will use it; this eliminates race conditions.
* The biggie: there *appears* to be a bug in gRPC's implementation
on Linux, where it doesn't implement WaitForReady properly. The
behavior I'm observing is that RPC calls will not retry as they
are supposed to, but will instead spuriously fail during the RPC
startup. To work around this, I've added manual retry logic in
the shared plugin creation function so that we won't even try
to use the client connection until it is in a well-known state.
pulumi/pulumi-fabric#337 tracks getting to the bottom of this and,
ideally, removing the work around.
The other minor things are:
* Separate run.js into its own module, so it doesn't include
index.js and do a bunch of random stuff it shouldn't be doing.
* Allow run.js to be invoked without a --monitor. This makes
testing just the run part of invocation easier (including
config, which turned out to be super useful as I was debugging).
* Tidy up some messages.
As explained in pulumi/pulumi-fabric#293, we were a little ad-hoc in
how configuration was "applied" to resource providers.
In fact, config wasn't ever communicated directly to providers; instead,
the resource providers would simply ask the engine to read random heap
locations (via tokens). Now that we're on a plan where configuration gets
handed to the program at startup, and that's that, and where generally
speaking resource providers never communicate directly with the language
runtime, we need to take a different approach.
As such, the resource provider interface now offers a Configure RPC
method that the resource planning engine will invoke at the right
times with the right subset of configuration variables filtered to
just that provider's package. This fixespulumi/pulumi#293.
We are renaming Lumi to Pulumi Fabric. This change simply renames the
pulumi/lumi repo to pulumi/pulumi-fabric, without the CLI tools and other
changes that will follow soon afterwards.
This adds a few missing closes for the plugin host/context. This
should fixpulumi/lumi#261. Eventually when we have more robust
nightly test options, and want to spend the time, we should think
about doing more rigorous stress testing that kills processes at
inopportune times and guarantees we don't leak. I've filed
pulumi/lumi#263 to do that.
This change fixes a few things:
* Most importantly, we need to place a leading "." in the paths
to Gometalinter, otherwise some sub-linters just silently skip
the directory altogether. errcheck is one such linter, which
is a very important one!
* Use an explicit Gometalinter.json file to configure the various
settings. This flips on a few additional linters that aren't
on by default (line line length checking). Sadly, a few that
I'd like to enable take waaaay too much time, so in the future
we may consider a nightly job (this includes code similarity,
unused parameters, unused functions, and others that generally
require global analysis).
* Now that we're running more, however, linting takes a while!
The core Lumi project now takes 26 seconds to lint on my laptop.
That's not terrible, but it's long enough that we don't want to
do the silly "run them twice" thing our Makefiles were previously
doing. Instead, we shall deploy some $$($${PIPESTATUS[1]}-1))-fu
to rely on the fact that grep returns 1 on "zero lines".
* Finally, fix the many issues that this turned up.
I think(?) we are done, except, of course, for needing to drive
down some of the cyclomatic complexity issues (which I'm possibly
going to punt on; see pulumi/lumi#259 for more details).
This continues the previous commit and establishes the interpreter
context so that we can use the new host interface. In summary:
* Instead of using the NullSource for destructions -- which
doesn't hook up an interpreter and so any reads of configuration
variables will fail -- we will enlighten the EvalSource to know
how to orchestrate destruction interpretation. The primary
difference is that we don't actually run the code, but *we do*
perform all of the necessary configuration and variable init.
* Associate the active interpreter with the plugin context as
we are executing, so that the host object can actually read the
state from the heap as requested to do so by attached plugins.
* Rename anything "engine" related to use the term "host"; this
avoids introducing unnecesarily new terminology.
* Add a new pkg/resource/provider/ package where we can begin
consolidating helper functionality for resource providers.
Right now, this includes a wrapper interface atop the gRPC
machinery necessary to contact the host, in addition to a
Main function that hides some boilerplate entrypoint code.
* Add a rpcutil.IsBenignCloseErr routine to let us ignore
"benign" gRPC errors that are knowingly returned at shutdown.
This commit completes pulumi/lumi#117.
This change adds an engine gRPC interface, and associated implementation,
so that plugins may do interesting things that require "phoning home".
Previously, the engine would fire up plugins and talk to them directly,
but there was no way for a plugin to ask the engine to do anything.
The motivation here is so that plugins can read evaluator state, such
as config information, but this change also allows richer logging
functionality than previously possible. We will still auto-log any
stdout/stderr writes; however, explicit errors, warnings, informational,
and even debug messages may be written over the Log API.
This change, part of pulumi/lumi#90, overhauls quite a bit of the
core resource, planning, environments, and related areas.
The biggest amount of movement comes from the splitting of pkg/resource
into multiple sub-packages. This results in:
- pkg/resource: just the core resource data structures.
- pkg/resource/deployment: all planning and deployment logic.
- pkg/resource/environment: all environment, configuration, and
serialized checkpoint structures and logic.
- pkg/resource/plugin: all dynamically loaded analyzer and
provider logic, including the actual loading and RPC mechanisms.
This also splits the resource abstraction up. We now have:
- resource.Resource: a shared interface.
- resource.Object: a resource that is connected to a live object
that will periodically observe mutations due to ongoing
evaluation of computations. Snapshots of its state may be
taken; however, this is purely a "pre-planning" abstraction.
- resource.State: a snapshot of a resource's state that is frozen.
In other words, it is no longer connected to a live object.
This is what will store provider outputs (ID and properties),
and is what may be serialized into a deployment record.
The branch is in a half-baked state as of this change; more changes
are to come...
