Welcome to Improved CDK Constructs !

The lib contains set of constructs which build and bake some required services in a stack.

The idea is to define config files which will drive the change for Cloudformation stacks.

For example, a website stack contains an S3 bucket and cloudfront distribution. These are synonymous to L3 cdk constructs.

Versioning / etc

It is done using conventialcommit and husky for git hooks to validate messages.

Github Actions

• New release is made PR is merged to master. This will push a commit.

Useful commands

• npm run build compile typescript to js
• npm run watch watch for changes and compile
• npm run test perform the jest unit tests
• cdk deploy deploy this stack to your default AWS account/region
• cdk diff compare deployed stack with current state
• cdk synth emits the synthesized CloudFormation template

TODO

• Add tests
• Cleanup
• Write documentation
• Do proper branching strategy

Notes on specific modules

• Datadog currently operator is not fully functional when paired with CSI secret driver. Defect has been raised.
• Alternative is to install datadog integration, create a secret called and pass it to the DatadogOperator stack. params used is datadogK8ExistingSecret
