At the moment, we permit resources to carry a name, which the
engine uses as part of URN creation. Unfortunately, the property
"name" has a very high chance of conflicting with meaningful
user-authored properties. And furthermore this sort of name,
although key to creating URNs which are core to how the overall
system performs deployments and manages resources, are seldom
used programmatically in Lumi programs. As a result, it's a real
nuisance that we stole the good name.
This change renames that property from "name" to "urnName". This
not only has a lower likelihood of conflicting, but it also looks
reasonable sitting alongside the "urn" property. In fact, in some
future universe, after some of the upcoming runtime changes, we
may not even need the name property on the objects whatsoever.
I had originally toyed with the idea of eliminating the Resource
versus NamedResource distinction. This is certainly simpler and
remains a possibility. I didn't do that right now, however, because
the flexibility of letting resource providers name resources however
they see fit still seems possibly useful. For example, we keep
talking about whether functions can be auto-named based on hashes.
Until we've run those conversations to ground, I'd hate to do some
work that just needs to be undone in order to enable a scenario that
has a non-trivial likelihood of us wanting to explore.
This change fixes up a few things so that updates correctly deal
with output properties. This involves a few things:
1) All outputs stored on the pre snapshot need to get propagated
to the post snapshot during planning at various points. This
ensures that the diffing logic doesn't need to be special cased
everywhere, including both the Lumi and the provider sides.
2) Names are changed to "input" properties (using a new `lumi` tag
option, `in`). These are properties that providers are expected
to know nothing about, which we must treat with care during diffs.
3) We read back properties, via Get, after doing an Update just like
we do after performing a Create. This ensures that if an update
has a cascading impact on other properties, it will be detected.
4) Inspecting a change, prior to updating, must be done using the
computed property set instead of the real one. This is to avoid
mutating the resource objects ahead of actually applying a plan,
which would be wrong and misleading.
Our initial implementation of assets was intentionally naive, because
they were limited to single-file assets. However, it turns out that for
real scenarios (like lambdas), we want to support multi-file assets.
In this change, we introduce the concept of an Archive. An archive is
what the term classically means: a collection of files, addressed as one.
For now, we support three kinds: tarfile archives (*.tar), gzip-compressed
tarfile archives (*.tgz, *.tar), and normal zipfile archives (*.zip).
There is a fair bit of library support for manipulating Archives as a
logical collection of Assets. I've gone to great length to avoid making
copies, however, sometimes it is unavoidable (for example, when sizes
are required in order to emit offsets). This is also complicated by the
fact that the AWS libraries often want seekable streams, if not actual
raw contiguous []byte slices.
This is an initial implementation of the Coconut IDL Compiler (CIDLC).
This is described further in
https://github.com/pulumi/coconut/blob/master/docs/design/idl.md,
and the work is tracked by coconut/pulumi#133.
I've been kicking the tires with this locally enough to checkpoint the
current version. There are quite a few loose ends not yet implemented,
most of them minor, with the exception of the RPC stub generation which
I need to flesh out more before committing.
