AWS CDK Rust Playground

This project serves as a playground for the initial version of AWS CDK Rust.

Project Overview

Infrastructure-as-code (IaC) project for a simple full-stack application using AWS CDK Rust.

The components:

• Frontend: AWS Amplify
• Backend: AWS Lambda
• Database: Amazon Aurora DSQL

The following environment variables are required:

Variable	Description
GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN	GitHub token for accessing your repo
FRONTEND_GITHUB_REPOSITORY	URL of the frontend GitHub repository
LAMBDA_ZIP_PATH	Path to the packaged Lambda code .zip

Usage

1. Set up the required environment variables
2. Run the project to generate CloudFormation templates:

   cargo run
   

3. Deploy the stack:

   ./deploy.sh
   

4. To tear down the infrastructure:

   ./destroy.sh
   

Known Issues and Limitations

• ⚠️ Amplify job needs to be run manually after initial deployment
  • After stack deployment, navigate to AWS Amplify Console
  • Select your application and branch
  • Click "Run build" to start the initial build process
  • Subsequent code pushes will trigger builds automatically
