enkonix-serverless-lambda-urls-api-cloudfront

Automatically creates properly configured AWS CloudFront distribution that routes traffic to Lambda URL.

Installation

$ npm install --save-dev enkonix-serverless-lambda-urls-api-cloudfront

Configuration

• All apiCloudFront configuration parameters are optional - e.g. don't provide ACM Certificate ARN to use default CloudFront certificate (which works only for default cloudfront.net domain).
• This plugin does not set-up automatically Route53 for newly created CloudFront distribution. After creating CloudFront distribution, manually add Route53 ALIAS record pointing to your CloudFront domain name.
• First deployment may be quite long (e.g. 10 min) as Serverless is waiting for CloudFormation to deploy CloudFront distribution.

Notes

• domain can be list, so if you want to add more domains, instead string you list multiple ones:

domain:
  - my-custom-domain.com
  - secondary-custom-domain.com

• cookies can be all (default), none or a list that lists the cookies to whitelist

cookies:
  - FirstCookieName
  - SecondCookieName

• headers can be all, none (default) or a list of headers (see CloudFront custom behaviour):

headers: all

• querystring can be all (default), none or a list, in which case all querystring parameters are forwarded, but cache is based on the list:

querystring: all

• priceClass can be PriceClass_All (default), PriceClass_100 or PriceClass_200:

priceClass: PriceClass_All

• minimumProtocolVersion can be TLSv1 (default), TLSv1_2016, TLSv1.1_2016, TLSv1.2_2018 or SSLv3:

minimumProtocolVersion: TLSv1

IAM Policy

In order to make this plugin work as expected a few additional IAM Policies might be needed on your AWS profile.

More specifically this plugin needs the following policies attached:

• cloudfront:CreateDistribution
• cloudfront:GetDistribution
• cloudfront:UpdateDistribution
• cloudfront:DeleteDistribution
• cloudfront:TagResource

You can read more about IAM profiles and policies in the Serverless documentation.
