![]() We upgraded to `ts-node@^8.0.0` 2.5 months ago as part of https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/3627, though it seems it wasn't really necessary to make that update for the purposes of the PR - updating the default TypeScript version. The `8.0.0` series of `ts-node` unfortunately dropped all of it's caching support, due to what appear to be some corner-case correctness issues with the cache. We have not seen reports of those issues for Pulumi, and have much more experience with the `7.0.0` series overall (2 years vs. 2 months). The performance difference between `7.0.0` and `8.0.0` of ts-node for Pulumi is massive - it adds 4-4.5s to each of `pulumi preview` and `pulumi up` even on a trivial program. As a result, for now we will revert back to `ts-node@^7.0.0`. In the future, we may want to look into our own caching layer or alternative to `ts-node` to ensure we get the behaviour and performance we expect. Part of #3671. |

Pulumi Node.js SDK
The Pulumi Node.js SDK lets you write cloud programs in JavaScript.
Installation
Using npm:
$ npm install --save @pulumi/pulumi
Using yarn:
$ yarn add @pulumi/pulumi
This SDK is meant for use with the Pulumi CLI. Please visit pulumi.com for installation instructions.
Building and Testing
For anybody who wants to build from source, here is how you do it.
Prerequisites
This SDK uses Node.js and we support the Active LTS and Current releases, as defined by this table. We support both NPM and Yarn for package management.
At the moment, we only support building on macOS and Linux, where standard GNU tools like make
are available.
Make Targets
The first time you build, run make ensure
to install and prepare native plugins for V8:
$ make ensure
This is only necessary if you intend to produce a build that is capable of running older versions of the SDK
contained in this directory. If you do intend to do this, you must have node 6.10.2
installed.
To build the SDK, simply run make
from the root directory (where this README
lives, at sdk/nodejs/
from the repo's
root). This will build the code, run tests, and install the package and its supporting artifacts.
At the moment, for local development, we install everything into /opt/pulumi
. You will want this on your $PATH
.
The tests will verify that everything works, but feel free to try running pulumi preview
and/or pulumi up
from
the examples/minimal/
directory. Remember to run tsc
first, since pulumi
expects JavaScript, not TypeScript.
