Construct Libraries for Public CloudFormation Extensions

Maturity: this project is currently in alpha. This means that breaking changes may occur.

This project includes an AWS CDK construct library for every public extension in the AWS CloudFormation Registry.

Usage

Every public extension (module/resource) in the AWS CloudFormation Registry is available in a separate code library in all AWS CDK supported languages. Each library includes generated constructs and data types based on the extension's schema.

For example, to use the TF::Random::String type in TypeScript:

Install the module:

npm install @cdk-cloudformation-types/tf-random-string

Import the construct to your code and add it to your app like any other construct:

import { CfnString } from '@cdk-cloudformation-types/tf-random-string';

new CfnString(this, 'MyString', {
  length: 100,
  lower: true,
  upper: true,
});

Versioning

The version of each library is based on the version of the public extension. This means that you should be able to obtain any version by simply requesting that version from your package manager.
