Usage:
```
pulumi new <template> --dir folderName
```
Used to specify the directory where to place the generated project.
If the directory does not exist, it will be created.
While we wait for upstream to fix the security issue, we'll just pass
`--no-audit` to `npm install` when creating a new project. Since the
warning is against an indirect dependency of @pulumi/pulumi, we can't
actually address the issue ourselves.
Mitigates #1350
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.
* Initialize a new stack as part of `pulumi new`
* Prompt for values with defaults preselected
* Install dependencies
* Prompt for default config values
These changes refactor direct interactions with the Pulumi API out of
the cloud backend and into a subpackage, `pkg/backend/cloud/client`.
This package exposes a slightly higher-level API that takes care of
calculating paths, performing HTTP calls, and occasionally wrapping
multiple physical calls into a single logical call (notably the creation
of an update and the upload of its program).
This is primarily intended as preparation for some of the changes
suggested in the feedback for #1067.
Note: This is a minor issue that I didn't get to for M11 that isn't
required for M11 and would be fine merging for post-M11.
When you specify a template name explicitly (e.g.
`pulumi new typescript`), we'll try to download the template tarball
without first downloading the JSON list of available templates. The JSON
includes a description used when replacing the `${DESCRIPTION}` string
in template files. Since we didn't download the JSON, we won't have a
description, so we fallback to a default value (`"A Pulumi project."`).
This also happens when specifying `--offline` to use an existing
template under `~/.pulumi/templates`; we won't have a description for
the template, so we fallback to a default description. The fallback
value happens to be the same as the description for each of our current
templates, so noone will currently notice an issue.
For M11, I included initial support for a template manifest file where
the description (and any future metadata) could be stored, but didn't go
as far as actually reading the file.
This change makes it so the CLI actually reads the description from the
manifest file (if it exists), otherwise falling back to the default
value as is done currently. Some minor related cleanup is included in
this change.
This adds a `pulumi new` command which makes it easy to quickly
automatically create the handful of needed files to get started building
an empty Pulumi project.
Usage:
```
$ pulumi new typescript
```
Or you can leave off the template name, and it will ask you to choose
one:
```
$ pulumi new
Please choose a template:
> javascript
python
typescript
```
