## Pulumi ESC

Sync environments, configs and secrets from [Pulumi ESC](https://www.pulumi.com/product/esc/) to Kubernetes using the External Secrets Operator.

More information about setting up [Pulumi](https://www.pulumi.com/) ESC can be found in the [Pulumi ESC documentation](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/esc/).

### Authentication

Pulumi [Access Tokens](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/pulumi-cloud/access-management/access-tokens/) are recommended to access Pulumi ESC.

### Creating a SecretStore

A Pulumi `SecretStore` can be created by specifying the `organization`, `project` and `environment` and referencing a Kubernetes secret containing the `accessToken`.

```yaml
apiVersion: external-secrets.io/v1
kind: SecretStore
metadata:
  name: secret-store
spec:
  provider:
    pulumi:
      organization: <NAME_OF_THE_ORGANIZATION>
      project: <NAME_OF_THE_PROJECT>
      environment: <NAME_OF_THE_ENVIRONMENT>
      accessToken:
        secretRef:
          name: <NAME_OF_KUBE_SECRET>
          key: <KEY_IN_KUBE_SECRET>
```

If required, the API URL (`apiUrl`) can be customized as well. If not specified, the default value is `https://api.pulumi.com/api/esc`.

### Creating a ClusterSecretStore

Similarly, a `ClusterSecretStore` can be created by specifying the `namespace` and referencing a Kubernetes secret containing the `accessToken`.

```yaml
apiVersion: external-secrets.io/v1
kind: ClusterSecretStore
metadata:
  name: secret-store
spec:
  provider:
    pulumi:
      organization: <NAME_OF_THE_ORGANIZATION>
      project: <NAME_OF_THE_PROJECT>
      environment: <NAME_OF_THE_ENVIRONMENT>
      accessToken:
        secretRef:
          name: <NAME_OF_KUBE_SECRET>
          key: <KEY_IN_KUBE_SECRET>
          namespace: <NAMESPACE>
```

### Referencing Secrets

Secrets can be referenced by defining the `key` containing the JSON path to the secret. Pulumi ESC secrets are internally organized as a JSON object.

```yaml
apiVersion: external-secrets.io/v1
kind: ExternalSecret
metadata:
  name: secret
spec:
  refreshInterval: 1h
  secretStoreRef:
    kind: SecretStore
    name: secret-store
  data:
  - secretKey: <KEY_IN_KUBE_SECRET>
    remoteRef:
      key: <PULUMI_PATH_SYNTAX>
```

**Note:** `key` is not following the JSON Path syntax, but rather the Pulumi path syntax.

#### Examples

* root
* root.nested
* root["nested"]
* root.double.nest
* root["double"].nest
* root["double"]["nest"]
* root.array[0]
* root.array[100]
* root.array[0].nested
* root.array[0][1].nested
* root.nested.array[0].double[1]
* root["key with \"escaped\" quotes"]
* root["key with a ."]
* ["root key with \"escaped\" quotes"].nested
* ["root key with a ."][100]
* root.array[*].field
* root.array["*"].field

See [Pulumi's documentation](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/concepts/options/ignorechanges/) for more information.

### PushSecrets

With the latest release of Pulumi ESC, secrets can be pushed to the Pulumi service. This can be done by creating a `PushSecrets` object.

Here is a basic example of how to define a `PushSecret` object:

```yaml
apiVersion: external-secrets.io/v1alpha1
kind: PushSecret
metadata:
  name: push-secret-example
spec:
  refreshInterval: 1h
  selector:
    secret:
      name: <NAME_OF_KUBE_SECRET>
  secretStoreRefs:
  - kind: ClusterSecretStore
    name: secret-store
  data:
  - match:
      secretKey: <KEY_IN_KUBE_SECRET>
      remoteRef:
        remoteKey: <PULUMI_PATH_SYNTAX>
```

This will then push the secret to the Pulumi service. If the secret already exists, it will be updated.

### Limitations

Currently, the Pulumi provider only supports nested objects up to a depth of 1. Any nested objects beyond this depth will be stored as a string with the JSON representation.

This Pulumi ESC example:

```yaml
values:
  backstage:
    my: test
    test: hello
    test22:
      my: hello
    test33:
      world: true
    x: true
    num: 42
```

Will result in the following Kubernetes secret:

```yaml
my: test
num: "42"
test: hello
test22: '{"my":{"trace":{"def":{"begin":{"byte":72,"column":11,"line":6},"end":{"byte":77,"column":16,"line":6},"environment":"tgif-demo"}},"value":"hello"}}'
test33: '{"world":{"trace":{"def":{"begin":{"byte":103,"column":14,"line":8},"end":{"byte":107,"column":18,"line":8},"environment":"tgif-demo"}},"value":true}}'
x: "true"
```
