What is cdktf?

The cdktf (Cloud Development Kit for Terraform) npm package allows developers to define cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages instead of HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). It provides a way to leverage the power of Terraform with the flexibility and expressiveness of languages like TypeScript, Python, and Java.

What are cdktf's main functionalities?

Defining Infrastructure

This code sample demonstrates how to define an AWS S3 bucket using the cdktf package. It sets up an AWS provider and creates an S3 bucket resource.

const cdktf = require('cdktf');
const { Construct } = require('constructs');
const { App, TerraformStack } = require('cdktf');
const { AwsProvider, S3Bucket } = require('@cdktf/provider-aws');

class MyStack extends TerraformStack {
  constructor(scope, id) {
    super(scope, id);

    new AwsProvider(this, 'Aws', {
      region: 'us-west-2'
    });

    new S3Bucket(this, 'MyBucket', {
      bucket: 'my-cdktf-bucket'
    });
  }
}

const app = new App();
new MyStack(app, 'my-stack');
app.synth();

Synthesizing Terraform Configuration

This code sample shows how to synthesize the Terraform configuration from the defined infrastructure. The `app.synth()` method generates the necessary Terraform JSON configuration files.

const { App } = require('cdktf');
const { MyStack } = require('./my-stack');

const app = new App();
new MyStack(app, 'my-stack');
app.synth();

Using Constructs

This code sample demonstrates how to use constructs to encapsulate and reuse infrastructure definitions. Constructs can be used to create reusable components that can be composed into stacks.

const { Construct } = require('constructs');
const { TerraformStack } = require('cdktf');

class MyConstruct extends Construct {
  constructor(scope, id) {
    super(scope, id);
    // Define resources here
  }
}

class MyStack extends TerraformStack {
  constructor(scope, id) {
    super(scope, id);
    new MyConstruct(this, 'MyConstruct');
  }
}
