pulumi

Description
Deploys a Pulumi stack and either creates/updates it automatically (if autoApply: true) or warns when the stack resources are not up-to-date, or errors if it's missing entirely.
Note: It is not recommended to set autoApply to true for production or shared environments, since this may result in accidental or conflicting changes to the stack. Instead, it is recommended to manually preview and update using the provided plugin commands. Run garden plugins pulumi for details. Note that not all Pulumi CLI commands are wrapped by the plugin, only the ones where it's important to apply any variables defined in the module. For others, simply run the Pulumi CLI as usual from the project root.
Stack outputs are made available as service outputs. These can then be referenced by other modules under ${runtime.services.<module-name>.outputs.<key>}. You can template in those values as e.g. command arguments or environment variables for other services.
Below is the full schema reference. For an introduction to configuring Garden modules, please look at our Configuration guide.
The first section contains the complete YAML schema, and the second section describes each schema key.
pulumi modules also export values that are available in template strings. See the Outputs section below for details.
