Create Hint Resource

Resources are created with functions called constructors. To learn more about declaring and configuring resources, see Resources.

Constructor syntax

new Hint(name: string, args: HintArgs, opts?: CustomResourceOptions);
@overload
def Hint(resource_name: str,
         args: HintArgs,

Hint Resource Properties

To learn more about resource properties and how to use them, see Inputs and Outputs in the Architecture and Concepts docs.

Inputs

In Python, inputs that are objects can be passed either as argument classes or as dictionary literals.

The Hint resource accepts the following input properties:

Content of the hint as displayed to the end-user.
Cost int
Cost of the hint, and if any specified, the end-user will consume its own (or team) points to get it.
Requirements List<string>
List of the other hints it depends on.
ChallengeId This property is required. string
Challenge of the hint.
Content This property is required. string
Content of the hint as displayed to the end-user.
Cost int
Cost of the hint, and if any specified, the end-user will consume its own (or team) points to get it.
