Previously, the `pulumi` tool did not show any indication of progress when doing a deployment. Combined with the fact that we do not create resources in parallel it meant that sometime `pulumi` would appear to hang, when really it was just waiting on some resource to be created in AWS. In addition, some AWS resources take a long time to create and CI systems like travis will kill the job if there is no output. This causes us (and our customers) to have to do crazy dances where we launch shell scripts that write a dot to the console every once in a while so we don't get killed. While we plan to overhaul the output logic (see #617), we take a first step towards interactivity by simply having a nice little spinner (in the interactive case) and when run non interactive have `pulumi` print a message that it is still working. Fixes #794 |

Pulumi Fabric
The Pulumi Fabric ("Pulumi") is a framework and toolset for creating reusable cloud services.
If you are learning about Pulumi for the first time, please visit our docs website.
Build Status
| Architecture | Build Status |
|---|---|
| Linux x64 |  |
| Windows x64 |
Installing
To install Pulumi from source, simply run:
$ go get -u github.com/pulumi/pulumi
A GOPATH must be set. A good default value is ~/go. In fact, this is the default in Go 1.8.
This installs the pulumi binary to $GOPATH/bin.
To do anything interesting with Pulumi, you will need an SDK for your language of choice. Please see sdk/README.md for information about how to obtain, install, and use such an SDK.
Development
This section is for Pulumi developers.
Prerequisites
Pulumi is written in Go, uses Dep for dependency management, and GoMetaLinter for linting:
- Go: https://golang.org/dl
- Dep:
$ go get -u github.com/golang/dep/cmd/dep - GoMetaLinter:
$ go get -u github.com/alecthomas/gometalinter$ gometalinter --install
Building and Testing
To build Pulumi, ensure $GOPATH is set, and clone into a standard Go workspace:
$ git clone git@github.com:pulumi/pulumi $GOPATH/src/github.com/pulumi/pulumi
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/pulumi/pulumi
The first time you build, you must make ensure to install dependencies and perform other machine setup:
$ make ensure
In the future, you can synch dependencies simply by running dep ensure explicitly:
$ dep ensure
At this point you can run make to build and run tests:
$ make
This installs the pulumi binary into $GOPATH/bin, which may now be run provided make exited successfully.
The Makefile also supports just running tests (make test), just running the linter (make lint), just running Govet
(make vet), and so on. Please just refer to the Makefile for the full list of targets.
Debugging
The Pulumi tools have extensive logging built in. In fact, we encourage liberal logging in new code, and adding new logging when debugging problems. This helps to ensure future debugging endeavors benefit from your sleuthing.
All logging is done using Google's Glog library. It is relatively bare-bones, and adds basic leveled logging, stack dumping, and other capabilities beyond what Go's built-in logging routines offer.
The pulumi command line has two flags that control this logging and that can come in handy when debugging problems.
The --logtostderr flag spews directly to stderr, rather than the default of logging to files in your temp directory.
And the --verbose=n flag (-v=n for short) sets the logging level to n. Anything greater than 3 is reserved for
debug-level logging, greater than 5 is going to be quite verbose, and anything beyond 7 is extremely noisy.
For example, the command
$ pulumi eval --logtostderr -v=5
is a pretty standard starting point during debugging that will show a fairly comprehensive trace log of a compilation.
