random.RandomPet
Explore with Pulumi AI
The resource random.RandomPet
generates random pet names that are intended to be used as unique identifiers for other resources.
This resource can be used in conjunction with resources that have the create_before_destroy
lifecycle flag set, to avoid conflicts with unique names during the brief period where both the old and new resources exist concurrently.
Example Usage
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";
import * as random from "@pulumi/random";
// The following example shows how to generate a unique pet name
// for an AWS EC2 instance that changes each time a new AMI id is
// selected.

}});
const serverInstance = new aws.ec2.Instance("server", {
tags: {
Name: pulumi.interpolate`web-server-${server.id}`,
