I'm testing a simple Pulumi concept: packaging the infrastructure. I'm using a very simple example for this, I'm trying to deploy a S3 bucket by importing a npm package. Here's my npm bucket npm package:

• index.ts

import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";
import { ComponentResource, ComponentResourceOptions, Input, Output } from "@pulumi/pulumi";

export interface S3Args {
    description: string;
    baseTags: aws.Tags;
}

export class S3 extends ComponentResource {
    s3: aws.s3.Bucket;

    private readonly name: string;
    private readonly description: string;
    private readonly baseTags: { [k: string]: Input<string> };

    constructor(name: string, args: S3Args, opts?: ComponentResourceOptions) {
        super("oli:s3-test", name, {}, opts);

        // Make base info available to other methods.
        this.name = name;
        this.description = args.description;
        this.baseTags = args.baseTags;

        // VPC
        this.s3 = new aws.s3.Bucket(`${name}-test`, {
            tags: this.resourceTags({
                Name: `${args.description} test`,
            }),
        }, {parent: this});
    }
    private resourceTags(additionalTags: { [k: string]: Input<string> }) {
        return Object.assign(additionalTags, this.baseTags);
    }
}

• tsconfig.json

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "strict": true,
        "outDir": "bin",
        "target": "es2016",
        "module": "commonjs",
        "moduleResolution": "node",
        "sourceMap": true,

        "pretty": true,
        "noFallthroughCasesInSwitch": true,
        "noImplicitReturns": true,
        "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true
    },
    "files": [
        "index.ts"
    ]
}

• package.json

{
  "name": "@obutterbach/bucket",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Pulumi package for S3",
  "main": "index.ts",
  "type": "module",
  "scripts": {
    "build": "tsc",
    "lint": "tslint --project ."
  },
  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "git https://github.com/obutterbach/pulumi-infra-package.git"
  },
  "publishConfig": {
    "name": "@obutterbach/bucket",
    "registry": "https://npm.pkg.github.com"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@types/node": "14.6.2",
    "ts-node": "^8.0.2",
    "typescript": "^2.9.1",
    "tslint": "^5.10.0"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@pulumi/aws": "^4.0.0",
    "@pulumi/pulumi": "^3.0.0"
  },
  "author": "Oli",
  "license": "ISC"
}

So far so good, I'm able to perform the following command: npm i, npm run build, npm run lint and npm publish

Now I got a different repo for deploying Pulumi and I'm using:

• Install npm package: npm install @obutterbach/bucket

• index.ts

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";

import  { S3 } from "@obutterbach/bucket";

const website  = new S3 ("testing", {
    description: "blabla",
    baseTags: {"bla": "bla"}
});

Using Pulumi preview keeps sending me this error and I cannot find the reason behind:

$ pulumi preview
Please choose a stack, or create a new one: deploy-dev
Previewing update (deploy-dev):
     Type                 Name                      Plan       Info

Thank you again for your help!

It looks like your @obutterbach/bucket package is running the wrong file index.ts when imported. Node.js is unable to run Typescript files.

I believe you should change the main in package.json pointing to your index.js in your @obutterbach/bucket package.

{
  "name": "@obutterbach/bucket",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Pulumi package for S3",
  "main": "./bin/index.js",
  "types": "./bin/index.d.ts",
   ...
}
