RandomInteger

The resource random.RandomInteger generates random values from a given range, described by the min and max attributes of a given resource.

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

using Pulumi;
using Aws = Pulumi.Aws;
using Random = Pulumi.Random;

class MyStack : Stack
{
    public MyStack()
    {
        var priority = new Random.RandomInteger("priority", new Random.RandomIntegerArgs
        {
            Keepers = 
            {
                { "listener_arn", @var.Listener_arn },
            },
            Max = 50000,
            Min = 1,
        });
