Reusable CDKTF Stack and Construct Patterns for GCP Applications

Note

While you can use this library as is, it has been designed to be used with gcp-tools-core; an AI-enabled platform to scaffold, build and deploy robust GCP applications.

Overview

gcp-tools-cdktf is a TypeScript library providing a comprehensive set of Cloud Development Kit for Terraform (CDKTF) stack and construct patterns for Google Cloud Platform (GCP). It enables you to rapidly compose, configure, and deploy production-grade GCP infrastructure as code.

What's Included

• Stacks (src/stacks/):

  • Infrastructure Stacks: VPC networking, IAM, Cloud SQL, Firestore, and UI hosting.
  • Project Stacks: Patterns for host, data, and app project separation.
  • App Stacks: Application-level service composition.
  • Ingress Stacks: Patterns for API gateways and load balancers.
  • Base Stacks: Extendable base classes for custom stacks.

• Constructs (src/constructs/):

  • Cloud Run: Easily deploy and manage Cloud Run services.
  • Cloud Functions: HTTP, CloudEvent, and scheduled functions, plus Pub/Sub subscriptions.
  • API Gateway: Securely expose APIs for your services.
  • Load Balancer: L7 load balancer for web and API traffic.
  • Pub/Sub Topics: Event-driven messaging constructs.
  • Base Constructs: Foundation for building custom application and ingress resources.

• Utilities (src/utils/):

  • Environment Management: Centralized environment and region configuration.

Key Features

• Composable: Mix and match constructs and stacks to fit your application's needs.
• Best Practices: Enforces GCP security, networking, and project organization standards.
• Least-Privilege IAM: Patterns and constructs for least-permission service account scoping and secure role assignment.
• Strict TypeScript: All constructs and stacks are fully typed for safety and IDE support.
• Production-Ready: Designed for real-world, multi-environment GCP deployments.

Example Usage

For a full example project structure, see gcp-tools-example-app.

import { cloudrun } from '@gcp-tools/cdktf/constructs'
import { AppStack } from '@gcp-tools/cdktf/stacks/app'
import { envConfig } from '@gcp-tools/cdktf/utils'
import { type App, TerraformOutput } from 'cdktf'

export class JobsStack extends AppStack {
  public readonly apiService: cloudrun.CloudRunServiceConstruct

  constructor(scope: App) {
    super(scope, 'jobs', {
      databases: ['firestore'],
    })

    this.apiService = new cloudrun.CloudRunServiceConstruct(
      this,
      'api',
      {
        region: envConfig.regions[0],
        buildConfig: {},
        serviceConfig: {
          environmentVariables: {
            FIRESTORE_PROJECT_ID: this.firestoreDatabaseProjectId,
            NODE_ENV: 'production',
          },
        },
      },
    )
  }
}
