pulumi plugin install | CLI commands

Install one or more plugins

Synopsis

Install one or more plugins.

Pulumi installs the plugins your program requires automatically, so most users never need to run this command. Use it to install plugins ahead of time, for example to warm a CI cache or to prepare a machine that will run without network access.

It may be run with a specific KIND, NAME, and optionally, VERSION, or by omitting these arguments and letting Pulumi compute the set of plugins required by the current project. When Pulumi computes the download set automatically, it may download more plugins than are strictly necessary.

KIND must be one of:

• analyzer: a resource analyzer, which enforces policies against resources.
• language: a language host, which runs Pulumi programs written in a given language. The languages Pulumi supports ship with the CLI, so you only need to install a language plugin to use a third-party one.
• resource: a resource provider, which performs CRUD operations on the resources of a cloud or service.
• converter: a converter, which converts from another ecosystem to Pulumi.
• tool: an arbitrary plugin that can be run as a tool.

If VERSION is specified, it cannot be a range; it must be a specific number. If VERSION is unspecified, a language plugin that is distributed separately from the CLI installs the version this release of the CLI is pinned to. For any other plugin, Pulumi will attempt to look up the latest version, though the result is not guaranteed.

Options

      --checksum string   The expected SHA256 checksum for the plugin archive
      --exact             Force installation of an exact version match (usually >= is accepted)
  -f, --file string       Install a plugin from a binary, folder or tarball, instead of downloading it
  -h, --help              help for install
      --parallel int      The max number of concurrent installs to perform. Parallelism of less than 1 implies unbounded parallelism (default 4)
      --reinstall         Reinstall a plugin even if it already exists
      --server string     A URL to download plugins from

      --otel-traces string           Export OpenTelemetry traces to the specified endpoint. Use file:// for local JSON files, grpc:// or https:// for remote collectors
