catnekaise.cdk-iam-utilities 0.0.13

Experimental utilities intended for AWS CDK IAM

CDK IAM Utilities

Work in progress.

• Breaking changes may occur.
• Not all types are exported
• Some parts are not yet tested

Developer Notes

The general idea is that the utilities in this library can serve as building blocks for composing other utilities that ideally should aid the existing aws-iam library in certain situations.

This library has been developed in context with catnekaise/actions-constructs and a yet unreleased thing.

Constraints

In the context of this library, constraining is the act of appending an existing iam.PolicyStatement (or via iam.Grant) with conditions. One constraint may conditionally add none, one or many conditions to the underlying iam.PolicyStatement.

The goal of constraints is to simplify working with the condition block of a policy when many conditions are being added, and to help make working with the conditions contextual to what is being accomplished. Example usage of this should be available soon️ in catnekaise/actions-constructs.
