Add an SNS Topic to your stack:

import * as sns from '@aws-cdk/aws-sns';

const topic = new sns.Topic(this, 'Topic', {
    displayName: 'Customer subscription topic'
});

Subscriptions

Various subscriptions can be added to the topic by calling the .addSubscription(...) method on the topic. It accepts a subscription object, default implementations of which can be found in the @aws-cdk/aws-sns-subscriptions package:

Add an HTTPS Subscription to your topic:

import * as subs from '@aws-cdk/aws-sns-subscriptions';

const myTopic = new sns.Topic(this, 'MyTopic');

myTopic.addSubscription(new subs.UrlSubscription('https://foobar.com/'));

Subscribe a queue to the topic:

myTopic.addSubscription(new subs.SqsSubscription(queue));

Note that subscriptions of queues in different accounts need to be manually confirmed by reading the initial message from the queue and visiting the link found in it.

Filter policy

A filter policy can be specified when subscribing an endpoint to a topic.

Example with a Lambda subscription:

const myTopic = new sns.Topic(this, 'MyTopic');
const fn = new lambda.Function(this, 'Function', ...);

// Lambda should receive only message matching the following conditions on attributes:
// color: 'red' or 'orange' or begins with 'bl'
// size: anything but 'small' or 'medium'
// price: between 100 and 200 or greater than 300
// store: attribute must be present
topic.addSubscription(new subs.LambdaSubscription(fn, {
    filterPolicy: {
        color: sns.SubscriptionFilter.stringFilter({
            whitelist: ['red', 'orange'],
            matchPrefixes: ['bl']
        }),
        size: sns.SubscriptionFilter.stringFilter({
            blacklist: ['small', 'medium'],
        }),
        price: sns.SubscriptionFilter.numericFilter({
            between: { start: 100, stop: 200 },
            greaterThan: 300
        }),
        store: sns.SubscriptionFilter.existsFilter(),
    }
}));

DLQ setup for SNS Subscription

CDK can attach provided Queue as DLQ for your SNS subscription. See the SNS DLQ configuration docs for more information about this feature.

Example of usage with user provided DLQ.

const topic = new sns.Topic(stack, 'Topic');
const dlQueue = new Queue(stack, 'DeadLetterQueue', {
    queueName: 'MySubscription_DLQ',
    retentionPeriod: cdk.Duration.days(14),
});

new sns.Subscription(stack, 'Subscription', {
    endpoint: 'endpoint',
    protocol: sns.SubscriptionProtocol.LAMBDA,
    topic,
    deadLetterQueue: dlQueue,
});

CloudWatch Event Rule Target

SNS topics can be used as targets for CloudWatch event rules.

Use the @aws-cdk/aws-events-targets.SnsTopic:

import * as targets from '@aws-cdk/aws-events-targets';

codeCommitRepository.onCommit(new targets.SnsTopic(myTopic));

This will result in adding a target to the event rule and will also modify the topic resource policy to allow CloudWatch events to publish to the topic.
