CDK Constructs for AWS CloudTrail

Project description

AWS CloudTrail Construct Library


Stability: Experimental

This is a developer preview (public beta) module. Releases might lack important features and might have future breaking changes.

This API is still under active development and subject to non-backward compatible changes or removal in any future version. Use of the API is not recommended in production environments. Experimental APIs are not subject to the Semantic Versioning model.


Add a CloudTrail construct - for ease of setting up CloudTrail logging in your account

Example usage:

import cloudtrail = require('@aws-cdk/aws-cloudtrail');

const trail = new cloudtrail.Trail(this, 'CloudTrail');

You can instantiate the CloudTrail construct with no arguments - this will by default: * Create a new S3 Bucket and associated Policy that allows CloudTrail to write to it * Create a CloudTrail with the following configuration: * Logging Enabled * Log file validation enabled * Multi Region set to true * Global Service Events set to true * The created S3 bucket * CloudWatch Logging Disabled * No SNS configuartion * No tags * No fixed name

You can override any of these properties using the CloudTrailProps configuraiton object.

For example, to log to CloudWatch Logs

import cloudtrail = require('@aws-cdk/aws-cloudtrail');

const trail = new cloudtrail.Trail(this, 'CloudTrail', {
  sendToCloudWatchLogs: true
});

This creates the same setup as above - but also logs events to a created CloudWatch Log stream. By default, the created log group has a retention period of 365 Days, but this is also configurable.

For using CloudTrail event selector to log specific S3 events, you can use the CloudTrailProps configuration object. Example:

import cloudtrail = require('@aws-cdk/aws-cloudtrail');

const trail = new cloudtrail.Trail(this, 'MyAmazingCloudTrail');

// Adds an event selector to the bucket magic-bucket.
// By default, this includes management events and all operations (Read + Write)
trail.addS3EventSelector(["arn:aws:s3:::magic-bucket/"]);

// Adds an event selector to the bucket foo, with a specific configuration
trail.addS3EventSelector(["arn:aws:s3:::foo/"], {
  includeManagementEvents: false,
  readWriteType: ReadWriteType.ALL,
});
