Pulumi

Improvements

Added

- Add `pulumi whoami` ([pulumi/pulumi1572](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1572)). `pulumi whoami` will report the account name of the current logged in user. In addition, we now display the name of the current user after `pulumi login`.

Fixed

- Don't require `PULUMI_DEBUG_COMMANDS` to be set to use local backend ([pulumi/pulumi1575](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1575)).

- Improve misleading `pulumi new` summary message ([pulumi/pulumi1571](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1571)).

- Fix printing out outputs in a pulumi program ([pulumi/pulumi1531](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1531)). Pulumi now shows the values of output properties after a `pulumi up` instead of requiring you to run `pulumi stack output`.

- Do a better job preventing serialization of unnecessary objects in closure serialization ([pulumi/pulumi1543](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1543)). We've improved our analysis when serializing functions. This yeilds smaller code when a function is serialized and prevents errors around unused native code being captured in some cases.

Improvements

Added

- Publish to pypi.org ([pulumi/pulumi1497](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1497)). Pulumi packages are now public on pypi.org!

- Add optional `--dir` flag to `pulumi new` ([pulumi/pulumi1459](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1459)). The `pulumi new` command now has an optional flag `--dir`, for the directory to place the generated project. If it doesn't exist, it will be created.

- Support Pulumi programs written in Go ([pulumi/pulumi1456](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1456)). Initial version for Pulumi programs written in Go. While it is not complete, basic resource registration works.

- Allow overriding config location ([pulumi/pulumi1379](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1379)). Support a new `config` member in `Pulumi.yaml`, which specifies a relative path to a folder where per-stack configuration is stored. The path is relative to the location of `Pulumi.yaml` itself.

- Delete existing resources before replacing, for resources that must be singletons ([pulumi/pulumi1365](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1365)). For resources where the cloud vendor does not allow multiple resources to exist, such as a mount target in EFS, Pulumi now deletes the existing resource before creating a replacement resource.

Changed

- Compute required packages during closure serialization ([pulumi/pulumi1457](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1457)). Closure serialization now keeps track of the `require`'d packages it sees in the function bodies that are serialized during a call to `serializeFunction`. So, only required packages are uploaded to Lambda.

- Support browser based logins to the CLI ([pulumi/pulumi1439](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1439)). The Pulumi CLI now has an option to login via a browser. When you are prompted for an access token, you can just hit enter. The CLI then opens a browser to [app.pulumi.com](https://app.pulumi.com) so that you can authenticate.

Fixed

- Support better previews in Python by mocking out Unknown values ([pulumi/pulumi1482](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1482)). During the preview phase of a deployment, computed values were `Unknown` in Python, causing the preview to be empty. This issue is now resolved.

- Issue a better error message if you capture a V8 intrinsic ([pulumi/pulumi1423](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1423)). It's possible to accidentally take a dependency on a Pulumi deployment-time library, which causes problems when creating a runtime function for AWS Lambda. There is now a better error message when this situation occurs.

Improvements

- Improve the promise leak experience ([pulumi/pulumi1374](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1374)). Fixes an issue where a promise leak could be erroneously reported. Also, show simple error message by default, unless the environment variable `PULUMI_DEBUG_PROMISE_LEAKS` is set.

Added

- A new all-in-one installer script is now available at [https://get.pulumi.com](https://get.pulumi.com).

- Many enhancements to `pulumi new` ([pulumi/pulumi1307](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1307)). The command now interactively walks through creating everything needed to deploy a new stack, including selecting a template, providing a name, creating a stack, setting default configuration, and installing dependencies.

- Several improvements to the `pulumi up` CLI experience ([pulumi/pulumi1260](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1260)): a tree view display, more details from logs during deployments, and rendering of stack outputs at the end of updates.

Changed

- (**Breaking**) Remove the `--preview` flag in `pulumi up`, in favor of reintroducing `pulumi preview` ([pulumi/pulumi1290](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1290)). Also, to accept an update without the interactive prompt, use the `--yes` flag, rather than `--force`.

Fixed

- Significant performance improvements for `pulumi up` ([pulumi/pulumi1319](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1319)).

- JavaScript `async` functions in Node 7.6+ now work with Pulumi function serialization ([pulumi/pulumi1311](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1311).

- Support installation on Windows in folders which contain spaces in their name ([pulumi/pulumi1300](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1300)).

Added

- Add a `pulumi cancel` command ([pulumi/pulumi1230](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1230)). This command cancels any in-progress operation for the current stack.

Changed

- (**Breaking**) Eliminate `pulumi init` requirement ([pulumi/pulumi1226](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1226)). The `pulumi init` command is no longer required and should not be used for new stacks. For stacks created prior to the v0.12.0 SDK, `pulumi init` should still be run in the project directory if you are connecting to an existing stack. For new projects, stacks will be created under the currently logged in account. After upgrading the CLI, it is necessary to run `pulumi stack select`, as the location of bookkeeping files has been changed. For more information, see [Creating Stacks](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/stack/#create-stack).

- (**Breaking**) Remove the explicit 'pulumi preview' command ([pulumi/pulumi1170](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1170)). The `pulumi preview` output has now been merged in to the `pulumi up` command. Before an update is run, the preview is shown and you can choose whether to proceed or see more update details. To see just the preview operation, run `pulumi up --preview`.

- Switch to a more streamlined view for property diffs in `pulumi up` ([pulumi/pulumi1212](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1212)).

- Allow multiple versions of the `pulumi/pulumi` package to be loaded ([pulumi/pulumi1209](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1209)). This allows packages and dependencies to be versioned independently.

Fixed
- When running a `pulumi up` or `destroy` operation, a single ctrl-c will cancel the current operation, waiting for it to complete. A second ctrl-c will terminate the operation immediately. ([pulumi/pulumi1231](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1231)).

- When getting update logs, get all results ([pulumi/pulumi1220](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1220)). Fixes a bug where logs could sometimes be truncated in the pulumi.com console.

- Switch to a resource-progress oriented view for pulumi preview, update, and destroy operations ([pulumi/pulumi1116](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1116)). The operations `pulumi preview`, `update` and `destroy` have far simpler output by default, and show a progress view of ongoing operations. In addition, there is a structured component view, showing a parent operation as complete only when all child resources have been created.

- Remove strict dependency on Node v6.10.x ([pulumi/pulumi1139](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/1139)). It is now no longer necessary to use a specific version of Node to run Pulumi programs. Node versions after 6.10.x are supported, as long as they are under **Active LTS** or are the **Current** stable release.
