aws-arch (AWS Architecture)

Library to provide metadata for AWS Services and AWS Resources.

This package generates mappings between @aws-cdk/cfnspec and AWS Architecture Icons, and resolves resource metadata between these systems to infer a normalized definition of an AwsService and AwsResource.

The primary aim of this package is to provide a consistent mechanism for other libraries to retrieve naming and assets associated with CloudFormation resources, and by extension CDK resources.

Get Started

yarn add '@aws-prototyping-sdk/aws-arch'

import { AwsArchitecture } from "@aws-prototyping-sdk/aws-arch";

const s3Bucket = AwsArchitecture.getResource("AWS::S3::Bucket");
const s3Service = AwsArchitecture.getService(s3Bucket.service);

console.log(s3Bucket);
console.log(s3Service);

// => console.log(s3Bucket);
{
	"name": "Amazon Simple Storage Service Bucket",
	"cfnType": "AWS::S3::Bucket",
	"awsAssetName": "Amazon-Simple-Storage-Service_Bucket",
	"awsAssetIcon": "resources/Amazon-Simple-Storage-Service_Bucket.png",
	"service": "S3"
}

// => console.log(s3Service);
{
	"provider": "AWS",
	"name": "Amazon Simple Storage Service",
	"cfnName": "S3",
	"awsAssetIcon": "services/Amazon-Simple-Storage-Service.png",
	"awsAssetName": "Amazon-Simple-Storage-Service"
}

Aws Achritecture Icons

Retrieve category, service, and resource AWS Architecture Icons.

Icon methods return relative asset key paths, as most frameworks have the concept of a base path (imagepaths). Use AwsArchitecture.resolveAssetPath(...) to get absolute path.

Retrieve icon based on CloudFormation Resource Type

Resource Icon

const s3Bucket = AwsArchitecture.getResource("AWS::S3::Bucket");

const s3BucketPng = s3Bucket.icon("png"); // => "storage/s3/bucket.png"
const s3BucketSvg = s3Bucket.icon("svg"); // => "storage/s3/bucket.svg"

// Resolve absolute path for icons
AwsArchitecture.resolveAssetPath(s3BucketPng); // => /User/example/.../node_modules/@aws-prototyping-sdk/aws-arc/assets/storage/s3/bucket.png

Service Icon

const s3Service = AwsArchitecture.getResource("AWS::S3::Bucket").service;
// equivalent to: `AwsArchitecture.getService("S3")`

const s3ServicePng = s3Service.icon("png"); // => "storage/s3/service_icon.png"
const s3ServiceSvg = s3Service.icon("svg"); // => "storage/s3/service_icon.svg"

// Resolve absolute path for icons
AwsArchitecture.resolveAssetPath(s3ServicePng); // => /User/example/.../node_modules/@aws-prototyping-sdk/aws-arc/assets/storage/s3/service_icon.png

Category Icon

const storageCategory =
  AwsArchitecture.getResource("AWS::S3::Bucket").service.category;
// equivalent to: `AwsArchitecture.getCategory("storage")`

const storageCategoryPng = storageCategory.icon("png"); // => "storage/category_icon.png"
const storageCategorySvg = storageCategory.icon("svg"); // => "storage/category_icon.svg"

// Resolve absolute path for icons
AwsArchitecture.resolveAssetPath(storageCategoryPng); // => /User/example/.../node_modules/@aws-prototyping-sdk/aws-arc/assets/storage/category_icon.png

Development

This package auto-generates many types and asset files from external sources, which are then auto mapped based on common patterns and explict mappings for edge-cases.

The auto-generation is handled by /scripts files which can be run via corresponding package scripts (eg: npx projen generate:assets => /scripts/generate-assets.ts).

There is an implicit sequential order the scripts must be called in due to dependencies, which is handled by npx projen generate script. The generate script is also invoked prior to npx projen build if generated asset directory does not exist.

For local development of packages that depend on aws-arch package, you will need to call npx projen generate && npx projen compile (or npx projen build) prior to locally importing this package.
