Guardian CDK Library

npm CD

The AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) is an open-source software development framework to define cloud infrastructure in code and provision it through AWS CloudFormation.

@guardian/cdk builds on CDK to provide Guardian-specific patterns and constructs. It is an opinionated and secure-by-default way to describe and provision your AWS resources.

Quickstart

@guardian/cdk expects certain Parameter Store values to be present - for example, VPC IDs, and the location of dist buckets. To check for account readiness and fix any issues, run:

npx @guardian/cdk@latest account-readiness --profile [profile]

Once you've confirmed that your account is ready, you can start provisioning your infrastructure.
