Adds a new resource option to force replacement when certain properties report changes, even if the resource provider itself does not require a replacement.

Adds initial support for resource methods (via a new `Call` gRPC method similar to `Invoke`), with support for authoring methods from Node.js, and calling methods from Python.
Resources are serialized as their URN, ID, and package version. Each
Pulumi package is expected to register itself with the SDK. The package
will be invoked to construct appropriate instances of rehydrated
resources. Packages are distinguished by their name and their version.
This is the foundation of cross-process resources.
Related to #2430.

These changes add initial support for the construction of remote
components. For now, this support is limited to the NodeJS SDK;
follow-up changes will implement support for the other SDKs.
Remote components are component resources that are constructed and
managed by plugins rather than by Pulumi programs. In this sense, they
are a bit like cloud resources, and are supported by the same
distribution and plugin loading mechanisms and described by the same
schema system.
The construction of a remote component is initiated by a
`RegisterResourceRequest` with the new `remote` field set to `true`.
When the resource monitor receives such a request, it loads the plugin
that implements the component resource and calls the `Construct`
method added to the resource provider interface as part of these
changes. This method accepts the information necessary to construct the
component and its children: the component's name, type, resource
options, inputs, and input dependencies. It is responsible for
dispatching to the appropriate component factory to create the
component, then returning its URN, resolved output properties, and
output property dependencies. The dependency information is necessary to
support features such as delete-before-replace, which rely on precise
dependency information for custom resources.
These changes also add initial support for more conveniently
implementing resource providers in NodeJS. The interface used to
implement such a provider is similar to the dynamic provider interface
(and may be unified with that interface in the future).
An example of a NodeJS program constructing a remote component resource
also implemented in NodeJS can be found in
`tests/construct_component/nodejs`.
This is the core of #2430.
These changes add a new method to the resource provider gRPC interface,
`GetSchema`, that allows consumers of these providers to extract
JSON-serialized schema information for the provider's types, resources,
and functions.
These changes restore a more-correct version of the behavior that was
disabled with #3014. The original implementation of this behavior was
done in the SDKs, which do not have access to the complete inputs for a
resource (in particular, default values filled in by the provider during
`Check` are not exposed to the SDK). This lack of information meant that
the resolved output values could disagree with the typings present in
a provider SDK. Exacerbating this problem was the fact that unknown
values were dropped entirely, causing `undefined` values to appear in
unexpected places.
By doing this in the engine and allowing unknown values to be
represented in a first-class manner in the SDK, we can attack both of
these issues.
Although this behavior is not _strictly_ consistent with respect to the
resource model--in an update, a resource's output properties will come
from its provider and may differ from its input properties--this
behavior was present in the product for a fairly long time without
significant issues. In the future, we may be able to improve the
accuracy of resource outputs during a preview by allowing the provider
to dry-run CRUD operations and return partially-known values where
possible.
These changes also introduce new APIs in the Node and Python SDKs
that work with unknown values in a first-class fashion:
- A new parameter to the `apply` function that indicates that the
callback should be run even if the result of the apply contains
unknown values
- `containsUnknowns` and `isUnknown`, which return true if a value
either contains nested unknown values or is exactly an unknown value
- The `Unknown` type, which represents unknown values
The primary use case for these APIs is to allow nested, properties with
known values to be accessed via the lifted property accessor even when
the containing property is not fully know. A common example of this
pattern is the `metadata.name` property of a Kubernetes `Namespace`
object: while other properties of the `metadata` bag may be unknown,
`name` is often known. These APIs allow `ns.metadata.name` to return a
known value in this case.
In order to avoid exposing downlevel SDKs to unknown values--a change
which could break user code by exposing it to unexpected values--a
language SDK must indicate whether or not it supports first-class
unknown values as part of each `RegisterResourceRequest`.
These changes also allow us to avoid breaking user code with the new
behavior introduced by the prior commit.

With these changes, a user may explicitly set `deleteBeforeReplace` to
`false` in order to disable DBR behavior for a particular resource. This
is the SDK + CLI escape hatch for cases where the changes in
https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-terraform/pull/465 cause undesirable
behavior.
These changes add support for passing `ignoreChanges` paths to resource
providers. This is intended to accommodate providers that perform diffs
between resource inputs and resource state (e.g. all Terraform-based
providers, the k8s provider when using API server dry-runs). These paths
are specified using the same syntax as the paths used in detailed diffs.
In addition to passing these paths to providers, the existing support
for `ignoreChanges` in inputs has been extended to accept paths rather
than top-level keys. It is an error to specify a path that is missing
one or more component in the old or new inputs.
Fixes#2936, #2663.

A resource can be imported by setting the `import` property in the
resource options bag when instantiating a resource. In order to
successfully import a resource, its desired configuration (i.e. its
inputs) must not differ from its actual configuration (i.e. its state)
as calculated by the resource's provider.
There are a few interesting state transitions hiding here when importing
a resource:
1. No prior resource exists in the checkpoint file. In this case, the
resource is simply imported.
2. An external resource exists in the checkpoint file. In this case, the
resource is imported and the old external state is discarded.
3. A non-external resource exists in the checkpoint file and its ID is
different from the ID to import. In this case, the new resource is
imported and the old resource is deleted.
4. A non-external resource exists in the checkpoint file, but the ID is
the same as the ID to import. In this case, the import ID is ignored
and the resource is treated as it would be in all cases except for
changes that would replace the resource. In that case, the step
generator issues an error that indicates that the import ID should be
removed: were we to move forward with the replace, the new state of
the stack would fall under case (3), which is almost certainly not
what the user intends.
Fixes#1662.
Thse changes make a subtle but critical adjustment to the process the
Pulumi engine uses to determine whether or not a difference exists
between a resource's actual and desired states, and adjusts the way this
difference is calculated and displayed accordingly.
Today, the Pulumi engine get the first chance to decide whether or not
there is a difference between a resource's actual and desired states. It
does this by comparing the current set of inputs for a resource (i.e.
the inputs from the running Pulumi program) with the last set of inputs
used to update the resource. If there is no difference between the old
and new inputs, the engine decides that no change is necessary without
consulting the resource's provider. Only if there are changes does the
engine consult the resource's provider for more information about the
difference. This can be problematic for a number of reasons:
- Not all providers do input-input comparison; some do input-state
comparison
- Not all providers are able to update the last deployed set of inputs
when performing a refresh
- Some providers--either intentionally or due to bugs--may see changes
in resources whose inputs have not changed
All of these situations are confusing at the very least, and the first
is problematic with respect to correctness. Furthermore, the display
code only renders diffs it observes rather than rendering the diffs
observed by the provider, which can obscure the actual changes detected
at runtime.
These changes address both of these issues:
- Rather than comparing the current inputs against the last inputs
before calling a resource provider's Diff function, the engine calls
the Diff function in all cases.
- Providers may now return a list of properties that differ between the
requested and actual state and the way in which they differ. This
information will then be used by the CLI to render the diff
appropriately. A provider may also indicate that a particular diff is
between old and new inputs rather than old state and new inputs.
Fixes#2453.
Adds a new resource option `aliases` which can be used to rename a resource. When making a breaking change to the name or type of a resource or component, the old name can be added to the list of `aliases` for a resource to ensure that existing resources will be migrated to the new name instead of being deleted and replaced with the new named resource.
There are two key places this change is implemented.
The first is the step generator in the engine. When computing whether there is an old version of a registered resource, we now take into account the aliases specified on the registered resource. That is, we first look up the resource by its new URN in the old state, and then by any aliases provided (in order). This can allow the resource to be matched as a (potential) update to an existing resource with a different URN.
The second is the core `Resource` constructor in the JavaScript (and soon Python) SDKs. This change ensures that when a parent resource is aliased, that all children implicitly inherit corresponding aliases. It is similar to how many other resource options are "inherited" implicitly from the parent.
Four specific scenarios are explicitly tested as part of this PR:
1. Renaming a resource
2. Adopting a resource into a component (as the owner of both component and consumption codebases)
3. Renaming a component instance (as the owner of the consumption codebase without changes to the component)
4. Changing the type of a component (as the owner of the component codebase without changes to the consumption codebase)
4. Combining (1) and (3) to make both changes to a resource at the same time
`pulumi query` requires that language plugins know about "query mode" so
that they don't do things like try to register the default stack
resource.
To communicate that a language host should boot into query mode, we
augment the language plugin protocol to include this information.
Fixes#2277.
Adds a new ignoreChanges resource option that allows specifying a list of property names whose values will be ignored during updates. The property values will be used for Create, but will be ignored for purposes of updates, and as a result also cannot trigger replacements.
This is a feature of the Pulumi engine, not of the resource providers, so no new logic is needed in providers to support this feature. Instead, the engine simply replaces the values of input properties in the goal state with old inputs for properties marked as ignoreChanges.
Currently, only top level properties may be specified in ignoreChanges. In the future, this could be extended to support paths to nested properties (including into array elements) with a JSONPath/JMESPath syntax.
In pursuit of pulumi/pulumi#2389, this commit adds the necessary changes
to the resource monitor protocol so that language hosts can communicate
exactly what version of a provider should be used when servicing an
Invoke, ReadResource, or RegisterResource. The expectation here is that,
if a language host provides a version, the engine MUST use EXACTLY that
version of a provider plugin in order to service the request.
These changes add a new flag to the various `ResourceOptions` types that
indicates that a resource should be deleted before it is replaced, even
if the provider does not require this behavior. The usual
delete-before-replace cascade semantics apply.
Fixes#1620.
This implements the new algorithm for deciding which resources must be
deleted due to a delete-before-replace operation.
We need to compute the set of resources that may be replaced by a
change to the resource under consideration. We do this by taking the
complete set of transitive dependents on the resource under
consideration and removing any resources that would not be replaced by
changes to their dependencies. We determine whether or not a resource
may be replaced by substituting unknowns for input properties that may
change due to deletion of the resources their value depends on and
calling the resource provider's Diff method.
This is perhaps clearer when described by example. Consider the
following dependency graph:
A
__|__
B C
| _|_
D E F
In this graph, all of B, C, D, E, and F transitively depend on A. It may
be the case, however, that changes to the specific properties of any of
those resources R that would occur if a resource on the path to A were
deleted and recreated may not cause R to be replaced. For example, the
edge from B to A may be a simple dependsOn edge such that a change to
B does not actually influence any of B's input properties. In that case,
neither B nor D would need to be deleted before A could be deleted.
In order to make the above algorithm a reality, the resource monitor
interface has been updated to include a map that associates an input
property key with the list of resources that input property depends on.
Older clients of the resource monitor will leave this map empty, in
which case all input properties will be treated as depending on all
dependencies of the resource. This is probably overly conservative, but
it is less conservative than what we currently implement, and is
certainly correct.
### First-Class Providers
These changes implement support for first-class providers. First-class
providers are provider plugins that are exposed as resources via the
Pulumi programming model so that they may be explicitly and multiply
instantiated. Each instance of a provider resource may be configured
differently, and configuration parameters may be source from the
outputs of other resources.
### Provider Plugin Changes
In order to accommodate the need to verify and diff provider
configuration and configure providers without complete configuration
information, these changes adjust the high-level provider plugin
interface. Two new methods for validating a provider's configuration
and diffing changes to the same have been added (`CheckConfig` and
`DiffConfig`, respectively), and the type of the configuration bag
accepted by `Configure` has been changed to a `PropertyMap`.
These changes have not yet been reflected in the provider plugin gRPC
interface. We will do this in a set of follow-up changes. Until then,
these methods are implemented by adapters:
- `CheckConfig` validates that all configuration parameters are string
or unknown properties. This is necessary because existing plugins
only accept string-typed configuration values.
- `DiffConfig` either returns "never replace" if all configuration
values are known or "must replace" if any configuration value is
unknown. The justification for this behavior is given
[here](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1695/files#diff-a6cd5c7f337665f5bb22e92ca5f07537R106)
- `Configure` converts the config bag to a legacy config map and
configures the provider plugin if all config values are known. If any
config value is unknown, the underlying plugin is not configured and
the provider may only perform `Check`, `Read`, and `Invoke`, all of
which return empty results. We justify this behavior becuase it is
only possible during a preview and provides the best experience we
can manage with the existing gRPC interface.
### Resource Model Changes
Providers are now exposed as resources that participate in a stack's
dependency graph. Like other resources, they are explicitly created,
may have multiple instances, and may have dependencies on other
resources. Providers are referred to using provider references, which
are a combination of the provider's URN and its ID. This design
addresses the need during a preview to refer to providers that have not
yet been physically created and therefore have no ID.
All custom resources that are not themselves providers must specify a
single provider via a provider reference. The named provider will be
used to manage that resource's CRUD operations. If a resource's
provider reference changes, the resource must be replaced. Though its
URN is not present in the resource's dependency list, the provider
should be treated as a dependency of the resource when topologically
sorting the dependency graph.
Finally, `Invoke` operations must now specify a provider to use for the
invocation via a provider reference.
### Engine Changes
First-class providers support requires a few changes to the engine:
- The engine must have some way to map from provider references to
provider plugins. It must be possible to add providers from a stack's
checkpoint to this map and to register new/updated providers during
the execution of a plan in response to CRUD operations on provider
resources.
- In order to support updating existing stacks using existing Pulumi
programs that may not explicitly instantiate providers, the engine
must be able to manage the "default" providers for each package
referenced by a checkpoint or Pulumi program. The configuration for
a "default" provider is taken from the stack's configuration data.
The former need is addressed by adding a provider registry type that is
responsible for managing all of the plugins required by a plan. In
addition to loading plugins froma checkpoint and providing the ability
to map from a provider reference to a provider plugin, this type serves
as the provider plugin for providers themselves (i.e. it is the
"provider provider").
The latter need is solved via two relatively self-contained changes to
plan setup and the eval source.
During plan setup, the old checkpoint is scanned for custom resources
that do not have a provider reference in order to compute the set of
packages that require a default provider. Once this set has been
computed, the required default provider definitions are conjured and
prepended to the checkpoint's resource list. Each resource that
requires a default provider is then updated to refer to the default
provider for its package.
While an eval source is running, each custom resource registration,
resource read, and invoke that does not name a provider is trapped
before being returned by the source iterator. If no default provider
for the appropriate package has been registered, the eval source
synthesizes an appropriate registration, waits for it to complete, and
records the registered provider's reference. This reference is injected
into the original request, which is then processed as usual. If a
default provider was already registered, the recorded reference is
used and no new registration occurs.
### SDK Changes
These changes only expose first-class providers from the Node.JS SDK.
- A new abstract class, `ProviderResource`, can be subclassed and used
to instantiate first-class providers.
- A new field in `ResourceOptions`, `provider`, can be used to supply
a particular provider instance to manage a `CustomResource`'s CRUD
operations.
- A new type, `InvokeOptions`, can be used to specify options that
control the behavior of a call to `pulumi.runtime.invoke`. This type
includes a `provider` field that is analogous to
`ResourceOptions.provider`.
* Protobuf changes to record dependencies for read resources
* Add a number of tests for read resources, especially around replacement
* Place read resources in the snapshot with "external" bit set
Fixespulumi/pulumi#1521. This commit introduces two new step ops: Read
and ReadReplacement. The engine generates Read and ReadReplacement steps
when servicing ReadResource RPC calls from the language host.
* Fix an omission of OpReadReplace from the step list
* Rebase against master
* Transition to use V2 Resources by default
* Add a semantic "relinquish" operation to the engine
If the engine observes that a resource is read and also that the
resource exists in the snapshot as a non-external resource, it will not
delete the resource if the IDs of the old and new resources match.
* Typo fix
* CR: add missing comments, DeserializeDeployment -> DeserializeDeploymentV2, ID check
A critical part of the partial update protocol is to return a structured
error when a resource is successfully created, but fails to initialize.
This structured error contains the properties of the
partially-initialized resource, and instructs the engine to halt.
Most languages implement this by attaching "details" to the error, i.e.,
an arbitrary proto message attached to the error. The JavaScript
implementation is not mature enough to include all the facilities
required to use this, so here we must add a `Status` message, which
protobuf requires as part of its structure for returning details.
The RPC provider interface needs a way to convey back to the engine
that a resource being read no longer exists. To do this, we'll return
the ID property that was read back. If it is empty, it means the
resource is gone. If it is non-empty, we expect it to match the input.
This change wires up the new Read RPC method in such a manner that
Pulumi programs can invoke it. This is technically not required for
refreshing state programmatically (as in pulumi/pulumi#1081), however
it's a feature we had eons ago and have wanted since (see
pulumi/pulumi#83), and will allow us to write code like
let vm = aws.ec2.Instance.get("my-vm", "i-07043cd97bd2c9cfc");
// use any property from here on out ...
The way this works is simply by bridging the Pulumi program via its
existing RPC connection to the engine, much like Invoke and
RegisterResource RPC requests already do, and then invoking the proper
resource provider in order to read the state. Note that some resources
cannot be uniquely identified by their ID alone, and so an extra
resource state bag may be provided with just those properties required.
This came almost for free (okay, not exactly) and will come in handy as
we start gaining experience with reading live state from resources.
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.
* Improve the error message arising from missing required configs for
resource providers
If the resource provider that we are speaking to is new enough, it will send
across a list of keys and their descriptions alongside an error
indicating that the provider we are configuring is missing required
config. This commit packages up the list of missing keys into an error
that can be presented nicely to the user.
* Code review feedback: renaming simplification and correcting errors in comments
* Send structured errors across RPC boundaries
This brings us closer to gRPC best practices where we send structured
errors with error codes across RPC endpoints. The new "rpcerrors"
package can wrap errors from RPC endpoints, so RPC servers can attach
some additional context as to why a request failed.
* Code review feedback:
1. Rename rpcerrors -> rpcerror, better package name
2. Rename RPCError -> Error, RPCErrorCause -> ErrorCause, names
suggested by gometalinter to improve their package-qualified names
3. Fix import organization in rpcerror.go
This change includes a bunch of refactorings I made in prep for
doing refresh (first, the command, see pulumi/pulumi#1081):
* The primary change is to change the way the engine's core update
functionality works with respect to deploy.Source. This is the
way we can plug in new sources of resource information during
planning (and, soon, diffing). The way I intend to model refresh
is by having a new kind of source, deploy.RefreshSource, which
will let us do virtually everything about an update/diff the same
way with refreshes, which avoid otherwise duplicative effort.
This includes changing the planOptions (nee deployOptions) to
take a new SourceFunc callback, which is responsible for creating
a source specific to the kind of plan being requested.
Preview, Update, and Destroy now are primarily differentiated by
the kind of deploy.Source that they return, rather than sprinkling
things like `if Destroying` throughout. This tidies up some logic
and, more importantly, gives us precisely the refresh hook we need.
* Originally, we used the deploy.NullSource for Destroy operations.
This simply returns nothing, which is how Destroy works. For some
reason, we were no longer doing this, and instead had some
`if Destroying` cases sprinkled throughout the deploy.EvalSource.
I think this is a vestige of some old way we did configuration, at
least judging by a comment, which is apparently no longer relevant.
* Move diff and diff-printing logic within the engine into its own
pkg/engine/diff.go file, to prepare for upcoming work.
* I keep noticing benign diffs anytime I regenerate protobufs. I
suspect this is because we're also on different versions. I changed
generate.sh to also dump the version into grpc_version.txt. At
least we can understand where the diffs are coming from, decide
whether to take them (i.e., a newer version), and ensure that as
a team we are monotonically increasing, and not going backwards.
* I also tidied up some tiny things I noticed while in there, like
comments, incorrect types, lint suppressions, and so on.
This commit does two things:
1. All dependencies of a resource, both implicit and explicit, are
communicated directly to the engine when registering a resource. The
engine keeps track of these dependencies and ultimately serializes
them out to the checkpoint file upon successful deployment.
2. Once a successful deployment is done, the new `pulumi stack
graph` command reads the checkpoint file and outputs the dependency
information within in the DOT format.
Keeping track of dependency information within the checkpoint file is
desirable for a number of reasons, most notably delete-before-create,
where we want to delete resources before we have created their
replacement when performing an update.
This change implements resource protection, as per pulumi/pulumi#689.
The overall idea is that a resource can be marked as "protect: true",
which will prevent deletion of that resource for any reason whatsoever
(straight deletion, replacement, etc). This is expressed in the
program. To "unprotect" a resource, one must perform an update setting
"protect: false", and then afterwards, they can delete the resource.
For example:
let res = new MyResource("precious", { .. }, { protect: true });
Afterwards, the resource will display in the CLI with a lock icon, and
any attempts to remove it will fail in the usual ways (in planning or,
worst case, during an actual update).
This was done by adding a new ResourceOptions bag parameter to the
base Resource types. This is unfortunately a breaking change, but now
is the right time to take this one. We had been adding new settings
one by one -- like parent and dependsOn -- and this new approach will
set us up to add any number of additional settings down the road,
without needing to worry about breaking anything ever again.
This is related to protected stacks, as described in
pulumi/pulumi-service#399. Most likely this will serve as a foundational
building block that enables the coarser grained policy management.
This change adds rudimentary delete-before-create support (see
pulumi/pulumi#450). This cannot possibly be complete until we also
implement pulumi/pulumi#624, becuase we may try to delete a resource
while it still has dependent resources (which almost certainly will
fail). But until then, we can use this to manually unwedge ourselves
for leaf-node resources that do not support old and new resources
living side-by-side.
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:

```
This addresses pulumi/pulumi#628.
This change simplifies the necessary RPC changes for components.
Instead of a Begin/End pair, which complicates the whole system
because now we have the opportunity of a missing End call, we will
simply let RPCs come in that append outputs to existing states.
This change brings back component outputs to the overall system again.
In doing so, it generally overhauls the way we do resource RPCs a bit:
* Instead of RegisterResource and CompleteResource, we call these
BeginRegisterResource and EndRegisterResource, which begins to model
these as effectively "asynchronous" resource requests. This should also
help with parallelism (https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/106).
* Flip the CLI/engine a little on its head. Rather than it driving the
planning and deployment process, we move more to a model where it
simply observes it. This is done by implementing an event handler
interface with three events: OnResourceStepPre, OnResourceStepPost,
and OnResourceComplete. The first two are invoked immediately before
and after any step operation, and the latter is invoked whenever a
EndRegisterResource comes in. The reason for the asymmetry here is
that the checkpointing logic in the deployment engine is largely
untouched (intentionally, as this is a sensitive part of the system),
and so the "begin"/"end" nature doesn't flow through faithfully.
* Also make the engine more event-oriented in its terminology and the
way it handles the incoming BeginRegisterResource and
EndRegisterResource events from the language host. This is the first
step down a long road of incrementally refactoring the engine to work
this way, a necessary prerequisite for parallelism.
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.
