aws-cdk-microservice

aws-cdk-microservice construct library is an open-source extension of the AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) to deploy configurable microservice infra and its individual components in less than 50 lines of code and human readable configuration which can be managed by pull requests!

A typical microservice architecture on AWS looks like:

Using cdk a microservice can be deployed using the following sample code snippet:

import { Stack, StackProps } from '@aws-cdk/core';
import { Construct } from 'constructs';
import { MicroService } from '@smallcase/aws-cdk-microservice';
import { App } from '@aws-cdk/core';

export class UnknownAPIStackDev extends Stack {
 constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props?: StackProps) {
   super(scope, id, props);
   new MicroService(this, 'test', {
     appName: 'test',
     env: 'prod',
     asgMaxSize: '1',
     asgMinSize: '1',
     diskSize: 20,
     instanceLabels: [
       {
         key: 'SUDOERS_GROUPS_TAG',
         propagateAtLaunch: true,
         value: 'Developers',
       },
     ],
     instanceType: 't3.micro',
     vpc: 'vpc-1234567',
     role: {
       type: 'existing',
       roleArn: 'arn:aws:iam::123456789233:instance-profile/API-DEV',
     },
     sshKey: 'master-dev',
     subnets: ['subnet-12345678', 'subnet-123456789'],
     tcpRules: [
       {
         sourceSG: 'sg-12345678',
         description: 'ssh rule',
         port: 22,
       },
       {
         sourceSG: 'sg-987654321',
         description: 'from load balancer',
         port: 8000,
       },
     ],
     networkProps: [
       {
         healthCheckPath: '/health',
         host: 'abc-test-123.smallcase.com',
         lbArn: 'arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:ap-south-1:123456789233:loadbalancer/app/API-DEV-External',
         sslEnabled: false,
         port: 8000,
         protocol: 'HTTP',
         zoneName: 'smallcase.com',
         zoneId: '1234567891011'
       },
     ],
     createCodedeployApplication: true,
   });
 }
}

new UnknownAPIStackDev(app, 'UnknownAPIStackDev', {
 env: { account: '12345678910', region: 'ap-south-1' },
});

app.synth()

Configuration helper

Property	Type	Default	Description
appName	string		Name of the application to be deployed
applicationType?	string	new	Type of application, new or existing, if existing, codedeploy will skip it's application creation and create a deployment group in existing application.
asgMaxSize?	number	2	Max ASG scale size
asgMinSize?	number	1	Min ASG scale size
env?	string	development	Application environment name
instanceLabels?	CfnAutoScalingGroup.TagPropertyProperty[]	[]	Tags to apply to the stack
healthCheckPath?	string	/health	Health check path for target group
port?	number	undefined	Port on which application is running. If not passed, target group will not be created
protocol?	string (HTTP/HTTPS/GRPC)	HTTP	Service protocol
diskSize?	number	8GB	Size of root volume for launch template
vpc	string		VPC in which application infra is to be deployed
role?	string		Role ARN which is to be used with launch template
tcpRules	IngressRule[]	[]	TCP Rules which are to be applied to the security group
subnets	string[]		Subnets in which subnets are to be deployed
sslEnabled?	boolean	false	Whether to use HTTPS ALB listener, or HTTP ALB listener
host?	string		DNS name, for example abc.xyz.com. Won't be created if TG is not created,
lbArn?	string		Load balancer arn for application load balancing
sshKey	string		The ssh key pair name which is to be used
diskType?	string (GP2/GP3/IO1/IO2)	GP3	Type of disk to be used
createCodedeployApplication?	boolean	false	Whether to create a codedeploy application and a deployment group for current ENV passed, if applicationType is new, this will not create an application but will create a new deployment group in the same application name, will throw an error if not found.
deploymentPolicies?	string[]	[]	Deployment group policies which are to be passed, there are major policies already attached which will allow usage of S3 and triggering codedeploy agents on instances.
