Issue details

When working with the Go implementation, a few fields does not have any corresponding configuration structs when working with Managed Node Groups. They exist on the node group args, but they are not available from the eks package. It would be nice if these configuration options were also implemented for Go.

ng, err := eks.NewManagedNodeGroup(ctx, "node-group", &eks.ManagedNodeGroupArgs{
	// Fields not implemented
	LaunchTemplate: nil,
	RemoteAccess:   nil,
	ScalingConfig:  nil,
})

Have you considered nodegroupv2? Its just recently added and it has a few bugs we are tracking but that might give you the control you want. ManagedNodeGroup is more opinionated.

Hey @viveklak, I have tried NodeGroupV2 and I had a lot of issues getting the nodes joining the cluster, not to mention they used launch configs rather than launch templates. Managed node groups works very well for me, but being able to set the launch template configuration would really alleviate a lot of things.

This should be currently supported and useable. Note that the types are coming from the AWS provider (pulumi-aws), so you'll need additional imports in your code for this to work.

Example:

import awsEks "github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/sdk/v6/go/aws/eks"
import "github.com/pulumi/pulumi-eks/sdk/v2/go/eks"

ng, err := eks.NewManagedNodeGroup(ctx, "node-group", &eks.ManagedNodeGroupArgs{
    LaunchTemplate: awsEks.NodeGroupLaunchTemplateArgs{Id: pulumi.String("lt-0a1b2c3d")},
    RemoteAccess:   awsEks.NodeGroupRemoteAccessArgs{},
    ScalingConfig:  awsEks.NodeGroupScalingConfigArgs{},
})
