This change is a simple perf optimization to speed up the process of listing plugins by excluding some metadata like size by default.
Our strategy for finding a plugin is to first look on the path, and then to iterate through all plugins in the plugin cache (a directory). We do this for each plugin that is loaded when NewProvider is called. Unfortunately, the codepath that gets all plugins is shared by pulumi plugin ls that needs to do things like display the total size of all plugins, the size of each plugin, and when the plugin was last installed/last used.
This means that any time a plugin is loaded, we are computing the size of all plugins by recursively enumerating all folder (including all of the node_modules directories of any installed node multi-lang plugins!). For my 5 gb of node plugins this translated to 10s of overhead each time a plugin was loaded.
This change is a very simple fix. pulumi plugin ls is the only code path that uses size, so we create a dedicated code path GetPluginsWithMetadata that populates that info, excluding from the result of GetPlugins by default.
* Send plugin install output to stderr
We currently send plugin install output to stdout. This interferes
with --json (#5747), automation API scenarios, and in general is bad
CLI hygiene. This change sends plugin output to stdout instead.
* Add a changelog entry
This commit makes it possible to opt out of loading plugins from PATH by
setting PULUMI_IGNORE_AMBIENT_PLUGINS to any non-empty value. This is
useful when automatic IDE tooling may build remote component plugins
into GOBIN unbeknownst to the user, and a resulting stale version of the
plugin is loaded in place of newer versions - even those , explicitly
installed.
* Do not read TGZs into memory.
This runs a serious risk of exhausting the memory on lower-end machines
(e.g. certain CI VMs), especially given the potential size of some
plugins.
* CHANGELOG
* fixes
Implement GetRequiredPlugins for Python, which determines the plugins
required by the program.
Also, if the `virtualenv` runtime option is set, and the specified
virtual directory is missing or empty, automatically create it and
install dependencies into it.
Two improvements:
1. Don't display "[resource plugin <foo>] installing" if the plugin is already installed.
2. Close the plugin download progress bar before displaying any subsequent output, and only show output of `npm install` when there is an error.
When installing a plugin, previous versions of Pulumi extracted the
plugin tarball to a temp directory and then renamed the temp directory
to the final plugin directory. This was done to prevent concurrent
installs: if a process fails to rename the temp dir because the final
dir already exists, it means another process already installed the
plugin. Unfortunately, on Windows the rename operation often fails due
to aggressive virus scanners opening files in the temp dir.
In order to provide reliable plugin installs on Windows, we now extract
the tarball directly into the final directory, and use file locks to
prevent concurrent installs from toppling over one another.
During install, a lock file is created in the plugin cache directory
with the same name as the plugin's final directory but suffixed with
`.lock`. The process that obtains the lock is responsible for extracting
the tarball. Before it does that, it cleans up any previous temp
directories of failed installs of previous versions of Pulumi. Then it
creates an empty `.partial` file next to the `.lock` file. The
`.partial` file indicates an installation is in-progress. The `.partial`
file is deleted when installation is complete, indicating the plugin was
successfully installed. If a failure occurs during installation, the
`.partial` file will remain indicating the plugin wasn't fully
installed. The next time the plugin is installed, the old installation
directory will be removed and replaced with a fresh install.
This is the same approach Go uses for installing modules in its
module cache.
When installing a plugin, if it contains a `PulumiPlugin.yaml` file with a `runtime` value of `nodejs` or `python`, install dependencies for the plugin.
For Node.js, `npm install` is run (or `yarn install` if `PULUMI_PREFER_YARN` is set).
For Python, a virtual environment is created and deps installed into it.
