@almamedia-open-source/cdk-project-target

Opinionated set of AWS Account & Application Environment configuration combinations and utilities to manage them for CDK Projects.

Important

🚧 This tool is work-in-progress and experimental!

All @almamedia-open-source/cdk- prefixed constructs/utilities are based on existing CDK constructs/utilities we've developed & used (in production) internally at Alma Media since 2019.

Breaking changes may occur at any given time without prior warning before first v1 major is released, as we rewrite them for CDK v2 and use this opportunity to also redesign & refactor.

Feedback is most welcome, but do note that we intend to implement these new constructs/utilities and their APIs in such manner that our existing CDK v1 production workloads can easily migrate into these new @almamedia-open-source/cdk- constructs/utilities.

Overview

TODO

Installation

1. Ensure you meet following requirements:

   • NodeJS v14.17.6 or newer
   • AWS Cloud Development Kit v2.0.0 or newer

2. Install peer dependency @almamedia-open-source/cdk-project-context:

   npm i -D @almamedia-open-source/cdk-project-context
   

3. Install this tool:

   npm i -D @almamedia-open-source/cdk-project-target
   

Usage

1. Initialize your CDK App with Project construct as documented in @almamedia-open-source/cdk-project-context but also use one of the following classes:

   • ProjectAccounts1x
   • ProjectAccounts2x
   • ProjectAccounts3x
   
   

   // bin/app.ts
   import { Project } from '@almamedia-open-source/cdk-project-context';
   import { ProjectAccounts2x } from '@almamedia-open-source/cdk-project-target';
   
   // new Project instead of new App
   const project = new Project({
     name: 'my-cool-project',
     author: {
       organization: 'Acme Corp',
       name: 'Mad Scientists',
       email: '[e-mail]',
     },
     defaultRegion: 'eu-west-1', // defaults to one of: $CDK_DEFAULT_REGION, $AWS_REGION or us-east-1
     accounts: new ProjectAccounts2x({
       dev: {
         id: '111111111111',
         config: {
           baseDomain: 'example.net',
         },
       },
       prod: {
         id: '222222222222',
         config: {
           baseDomain: 'example.com',
         },
       },
     }),
   })
