CDK construct library for creating an EC2 instance with Node.js installed

CDK Node.js EC2 Instance Construct

This is a CDK Construct for creating an EC2 instance with Node.js installed.

You can use Node.js as soon as the EC2 instance starts.

Usage

Install the package:

npm install cdk-node-ec2-instance

Use it in your CDK stack:

import { NodeEc2Instance } from 'cdk-node-ec2-instance';
import * as ec2 from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-ec2';

declare const vpc: ec2.IVpc;

// You can configure all properties of the EC2 instance
new NodeEc2Instance(this, 'Instance', {
  vpc,
  instanceType: ec2.InstanceType.of(ec2.InstanceClass.T3, ec2.InstanceSize.NANO),
  machineImage: new ec2.AmazonLinuxImage({
    generation: ec2.AmazonLinuxGeneration.AMAZON_LINUX_2023,
  }),
  nodeJsVersion: 'v20.13.1', // Optional property. Default is installing the latest LTS version
});

After the stack is deployed, you can SSH into the EC2 instance and use Node.js:

$ ssh ec2-user@<public-ip>
$ node --version
v20.13.1
