In this PR we fix generating constructor syntax examples for Kubernetes. The problem initially was due to generating a PCL program with syntax errors for the kubernetes schema. The syntax error was happening because we emitted properties `$ref` and `$schema` which are not valid identifiers in PCL. Fixing this was simple enough, we only needed to quote these properties that start with dollar signs and we get a valid PCL program. Full PCL program for kubernetes: https://gist.github.com/Zaid-Ajaj/abe899430a0b5f99a428934dcac75d52 However, the valid PCL program wouldn't convert to Go with program-gen and it would hang without showing any errors or stack traces. I wrote a script to split the programs for each resource and convert each separately. This way I narrowed down the problem to this program: ``` resource "def" "kubernetes:apiextensions.k8s.io/v1:CustomResourceDefinition" { apiVersion = "string" kind = "string" spec = { versions = [{}] } } ``` Debugging this in Go program-gen didn't show an obvious error and it kept on hanging. However I noticed that we lowering expressions twice: once for the entirety of resource inputs when generating resources and again when generating the expressions separately. Lowering expressions has been the source of many bugs and it seems to trip up program-gen a lot and suspected something wrong was going on here, so I simplified it to lower the expressions once when we generate resource inputs. This fixed the hang issue as well as a few of our test programs (see diffs for test programs and tests schemas) Tested this against the full kubernetes schema and we can now generate the full Go program: https://gist.github.com/Zaid-Ajaj/3ac734536969a989edae92219968d51f > The second time we lower expressions not only is redundant but also can generate invalid code if the lowered expressions have temporary variables because program-gen would just emit these variables inside inline expressions like objects and lists which gives invalid Go code.

Docs generator
This generator generates resource-level docs by utilizing the Pulumi schema.
Crash course on templates
The templates use Go's built-in html/template
package to process templates with data. The driver for this doc generator (e.g. tfbridge for TF-based providers) then persists each file from memory onto the disk as .md
files.
Although we are using the html/template
package, it has the same exact interface as the text/template
package, except for some HTML specific things. Therefore, all of the functions available in the text/template
package are also available with the html/template
package.
- Data can be injected using
{{.PropertyName}}
. - Nested properties can be accessed using the dot notation, i.e.
{{.Property1.Property2}}
. - Templates can inject other templates using the
{{template "template_name"}}
directive.- For this to work, you will need to first define the named template using
{{define "template_name"}}
.
- For this to work, you will need to first define the named template using
- You can pass data to nested templates by simply passing an argument after the template's name.
- To remove whitespace from injected values, use the
-
in the template tags.- For example,
{{if .SomeBool}} some text {{- else}} some other text {{- end}}
. Note the use of-
to eliminate whitespace from the enclosing text. - Read more here.
- For example,
- To render un-encoded content use the custom global function
htmlSafe
.- Note: This should only be used if you know for sure you are not injecting any user-generated content, as it by-passes the HTML encoding.
- To render strings to Markdown, use the custom global function
markdownify
. - To print regular strings, that share the same syntax as the Go templating engine, use the built-in global function
print
function.

Modifying templates and updating tests
We run tests that validate our template-rendering output. If you need to make change that produces a set of Markdown files that differs from the set that we use in our tests (see codegen/testing/test/testdata/**/*.md
), your pull-request checks will fail, and to get them to pass, you'll need to modify the test data to match the output produced by your change.
For minor diffs, you can just update the test files manually and include those updates with your PR. But for large diffs, you may want to regenerate the full set. To do that, from the root of the repo, run:
cd pkg/codegen/docs && PULUMI_ACCEPT=true go test . && cd -
