Terraform added a lot of these procedural functions natively in the time since this was created.

At any rate if you want to stick with Python, I'd say Pulumi would be a safer choice these days.

Yes, Pulumi uses the Terraform providers, and allows you script your stuff in Typescript/Python/Java/C#.

How do Pulumi models in different languages interact or interop?

Not an expert but it is possible to mix and match with the new automation api. The example below mixes typescript with go.

Looks like you get a runtime explosion mad then some. Your CI will need all of the runtimes used plus the extra code to handle multiple language runtimes in Pulumi via the automation api.

Anyhow, thanks for the link.

I guess typically you would pick one language and use that throughout the Pulumi project.

As would I. I see this becoming a pain for the operator of the build systems in a mutli-team environment.
