cdk-github 0.0.4

AWS CDK Construct Library to interact with GitHub's API.

CDK-GitHub

AWS CDK v2 L3 constructs for GitHub.

This project aims to make GitHub's API accessible through CDK with various helper constructs to create resources in GitHub. The target is to replicate most of the functionality of the Terraform GitHub Provider.

Internally AWS CloudFormation custom resources will be used to track GitHub resources (such as Secrets).

Installation

JavaScript/TypeScript: npm install cdk-github

Constructs

This library provides the following constructs:

• ActionSecret - Creates a GitHub Action (repository) secret from a given AWS Secrets Manager secret.
• ActionEnvironmentSecret - Creates a GitHub Action environment secret from a given AWS Secrets Manager secret.

Authentication

Currently the constructs only support authentication via a GitHub Personal Access Token. The token needs to be a stored in a AWS SecretsManager Secret and passed to the construct as parameter.

Examples

ActionSecret

import { ActionSecret } from 'cdk-github';

export class ActionSecretStack extends Stack {
  constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props?: StackProps) {
    super(scope, id, props);

    const sourceSecret = Secret.fromSecretNameV2(this, 'secretToStoreInGitHub', 'testcdkgithub');
    const githubTokenSecret = Secret.fromSecretNameV2(this, 'ghSecret', 'GITHUB_TOKEN');

    new ActionSecret(this, 'GitHubActionSecret', {
      githubTokenSecret,
      repositoryName: 'cdk-github',
      repositoryOwner: 'wtfjoke',
      repositorySecretName: 'aRandomGitHubSecret',
      sourceSecret,
    });
  }
}

ActionEnvironmentSecret

import { ActionEnvironmentSecret } from 'cdk-github';

export class ActionEnvironmentSecretStack extends Stack {
  constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props?: StackProps) {
    super(scope, id, props);

    const sourceSecret = Secret.fromSecretNameV2(this, 'secretToStoreInGitHub', 'testcdkgithub');
    const githubTokenSecret = Secret.fromSecretNameV2(this, 'ghSecret', 'GITHUB_TOKEN');

    new ActionEnvironmentSecret(this, 'GitHubActionEnvironmentSecret', {
      githubTokenSecret,
      environment: 'dev',
      repositoryName: 'cdk-github',
      repositoryOwner: 'wtfjoke',
      repositorySecretName: 'aRandomGitHubSecret',
      sourceSecret,
    });
  }
}
