A .NET language provider for Pulumi. Use your favorite .NET language to write Pulumi programs and deploy infrastructure to any cloud.

dotnet add package Pulumi

Here's a simple example of a Pulumi app written in C# that creates some simple AWS resources:

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Pulumi;
using Pulumi.Aws.S3;

return await Deployment.RunAsync(() =>
{
    // Create the bucket, and make it public.
    var bucket = new Bucket("media", new () 
    { 
        Acl = "public-read" 
    });

    // Add some content.
    var content = new BucketObject("basic-content", new ()
    {
        Acl = "public-read",
        Bucket = bucket.Id,
        ContentType = "text/plain; charset=utf8",
        Key = "hello.txt",
        Source = new StringAsset("Made with ❤, Pulumi, and .NET"),
    });

    // Return some values that will become the Outputs of the stack.
    return new Dictionary<string, object>
    {
        ["hello"] = "world",
        ["bucket-id"] = bucket.Id,
        ["content-id"] = content.Id,
        ["object-url"] = Output.Format($"http://{bucket.BucketDomainName}/{content.Key}"),
    };
});

Make a Pulumi.yaml file:

$ cat Pulumi.yaml

name: hello-dotnet
runtime: dotnet

Then, configure it:

$ pulumi stack init hello-dotnet
$ pulumi config set aws:region us-west-2

And finally, pulumi preview and pulumi up as you would any other Pulumi project.

• Dotnet SDK v6+ installed on your machine.
• Go 1.19+ for building and testing pulumi-language-dotnet
• The Pulumi CLI (used in automation tests and for integration tests)

Then you can run one of the following commands:

# Build the Pulumi SDK
dotnet run build-sdk

# Running tests for the Pulumi SDK
dotnet run test-sdk

# Running tests for the Pulumi Automation SDK
dotnet run test-automation-sdk

# Building the language plugin. A binary will be built into the pulumi-language-dotnet folder.
# this is the binary that will be used by the integration tests.
dotnet run build-language-plugin

# Testing the language plugin
dotnet run test-language-plugin

# Sync proto files from pulumi/pulumi
dotnet run sync-proto-files

# List all integration tests
dotnet run list-integration-tests

# Run a specific integration test
dotnet run integration test <testName>

# Run all integration tests
dotnet run all-integration-tests

When running integration tests via an IDE like Goland or VSCode, you want the Pulumi CLI to use the pulumi-language-dotnet plugin from this repository, not the one that comes bundled with your Pulumi CLI. To do this, in your terminal dotnet run build-language-plugin or simply cd pulumi-language-dotnet && go build.

Alternatively, you can run dotnet run integration test <testName> or dotnet run all-integration-tests which will build the language plugin for you just before running the tests.

When making changes to the code you may get the following compilation error:

error RS0016: Symbol XYZ' is not part of the declared API.

This indicates a change in public API. If you are developing a change and this is intentional, add the new API elements to PublicAPI.Shipped.txt corresponding to your project (some IDEs will do this automatically for you, but manual additions are fine as well).
