# Setup AWS Secrets manager

A minimal AWS C# Pulumi program

- Source on GitHub: https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/aws-cs-secrets-manager

## Get started with this example

This example lives in the [pulumi/examples](https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/aws-cs-secrets-manager) repo. Pull down just this directory to follow along:

```bash
git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/pulumi/examples pulumi-examples
git -C pulumi-examples sparse-checkout set aws-cs-secrets-manager
cd pulumi-examples/aws-cs-secrets-manager
```

A simple program that creates an AWS secret and a version under AWS Secrets Manager

## Deploying and running the program

1.  Create a new stack:

    ```bash
    $ pulumi stack init dev
    ```

1.  Set the AWS region:

    ```
    $ pulumi config set aws:region us-east-1
    ```

1.  Run `pulumi up` to preview and deploy changes:

    ```
    $ pulumi up
    Previewing update (dev)
    ...

    Updating (dev)

    View Live: https://app.pulumi.com/acmecorp/aws-cs-secrets-manager/dev/updates/1

        Type                                 Name                        Status
    +   pulumi:pulumi:Stack                  aws-cs-secrets-manager-dev  created
    +   ├─ aws:secretsmanager:Secret         secretContainer             created
    +   └─ aws:secretsmanager:SecretVersion  secret                      created

    Outputs:
        SecretId: "arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-east-1:xxxxxxxx:secret:secretContainer-eec74e1-PYcuM8"

    Resources:
        + 3 created

    Duration: 10s
    ```

## Clean up

1.  Run `pulumi destroy` to tear down all resources.

1.  To delete the stack itself, run `pulumi stack rm`. Note that this command deletes all deployment history from the Pulumi console.
