Basic question on aws-cdk, type script and dbParameterGroup

[simon-tardif]

Hi I am very new to aws-cdk and also typescript, I'm creating a mysql rds instance with the cdk in type script.
Everything is working but the parameters of the rds.ParameterGroup object are hard coded.

For the db parameter group I have this code :
const dbParameterGroup = new rds.ParameterGroup(this, 'ParameterGroup', { engine: rds.DatabaseInstanceEngine.mysql({ version: engineVersion, }), parameters: { time_zone: 'US/Eastern', binlog_cache_size: '204800' }, });
I'm trying to make the "parameters" value dynamic so user can pass value at runtime. I have checked https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v1/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-rds.ParameterGroupProps.html

It says this parameters is { [string]: string } type but I can't figured how I can create a variable from a string or json or other object type so the content time_zone: 'US/Eastern', binlog_cache_size: '204800' could be given by the user when he calls my stacks.

Any help appreciated :) Thank you

I Have found that ParameterGroup objetc has a methode addParameter() so I found way to do it.
