cdk-datadog-integration

AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) Datadog Integration

This construct makes it easy to integrate your AWS account with Datadog. It creates nested stacks based on the official Datadog Cloudformation templates using Amazon Cloud Development Kit (CDK).

Basic Usage

1. Install the package

   npm i --save cdk-datadog-integration
   

   Or via pypi, NuGet, or GitHub Packages.

2. Import the stack and pass the required parameters.

   # Example automatically generated without compilation. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
   import aws_cdk.core as cdk
   from ...lib.monitoring_infrastructure_stack import MonitoringInfrastructureStack
   
   app = cdk.App()
   MonitoringInfrastructureStack(app, "MonitoringInfrastructure")
   

   # Example automatically generated without compilation. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
   import aws_cdk.core as cdk
   import aws_cdk.aws_secretsmanager as secrets
   from cdk_datadog_integration import DatadogIntegrationStack
   
   class MonitoringInfrastructureStack(cdk.Stack):
       def __init__(self, scope, id, *, description=None, env=None, stackName=None, tags=None, synthesizer=None, terminationProtection=None):
           super().__init__(scope, id, description=description, env=env, stackName=stackName, tags=tags, synthesizer=synthesizer, terminationProtection=terminationProtection)
   
           datadog = DatadogIntegrationStack(self, "Datadog",
               # Generate an ID here: https://app.datadoghq.com/account/settings#integrations/amazon-web-services
               external_id="",
   
               # Create or lookup a `Secret` that contains your Datadog API Key
               # See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/aws-secretsmanager-readme.html for details on Secrets in CDK
               # Get your API key here: https://app.datadoghq.com/account/settings#api
               api_key=secrets.Secret.from_secret_name_v2(self, "DatadogApiKey", "<your secret name>")
           )
   

Configuration

Use DatadogIntegrationConfig to set additional configuration parameters. Check out docs for more details on what's available.

Additionally, a CDK Construct is exposed, should you want to add additional customizations vs. using the out-of-the-box Stack.

CDK Version Compatibility

This package is expected to work with all recent versions of CDK v1. It has been tested with 1.55.0 so almost certainly works will all newer versions, and probably works with some older versions too, but is untested.

How it Works

This module uses the CfnStack CDK Construct to import the three CloudFormation stacks referenced by the main Datadog CloudFormation template. By referencing the Datadog-provided templates, you can be confident that the integration works exactly as Datadog intends.
