Full skill instructions

Pulumi

Pulumi lets you define infrastructure using TypeScript, Python, Go, or C#. It offers the power of a real language (loops, functions, classes) for IaC. 2025 highlights include Pulumi ESC for secret management.

When to Use

  • Developers: You prefer TypeScript over HCL YAML.
  • Complexity: You need genuine logic (if/​else, loops, external API calls) during infrastructure definition.
  • Testing: You want to unit test your infrastructure code using standard test runners (Jest, Pytest).

Quick Start (TypeScript)

import * as pulum from "@pulumi/​pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/​aws";

const bucket = new aws.s3.Bucket("my-bucket", {
  acl: "private",
});

export const bucketName = bucket.id;

Core Concepts

Programming Model

Unlike Terraform's declarative HCL, Pulumi executes your program to build a resource graph.

Pulumi ESC (Environments, Secrets, Config)

Centralized secret management. Retrieve dynamic secrets (AWS temp creds) at runtime.

Automation API

Embed infrastructure creation inside your own software. "Click to Deploy" features in SaaS products often use this.

Best Practices (2025)

Do:

  • Use ComponentResources: Abstract complexity into reusable Classes (e.g., class MyMicroservice extends ComponentResource).
  • Use Secrets Provider: Don't store secrets in plaintext config. Pulumi encrypts config values by default.
  • Unit Test: Use mocks to test that your Security Groups don't allow 0.0.0.0/​0.

Don't:

  • Don't mix logic and state: Keep side-effects (API calls) predictable.
