Overview

This AWS Solutions Construct implements an AWS CloudFront fronting an Amazon API Gateway REST API.

Here is a minimal deployable pattern definition:

Typescript

import { Construct } from 'constructs';
import { Stack, StackProps } from 'aws-cdk-lib';
import { CloudFrontToApiGateway } from '@aws-solutions-constructs/aws-cloudfront-apigateway';
import * as lambda from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-lambda';
import * as api from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-apigateway';

const lambdaProps: lambda.FunctionProps = {
  code: lambda.Code.fromAsset(`lambda`),
  runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_16_X,
  handler: 'index.handler'
};

const lambdafunction = new lambda.Function(this, 'LambdaFunction', lambdaProps);

const apiGatewayProps: api.LambdaRestApiProps = {
  handler: lambdafunction,
  endpointConfiguration: {
    types: [api.EndpointType.REGIONAL]
  },
  defaultMethodOptions: {
    authorizationType: api.AuthorizationType.NONE
  }
};

const apiGateway = new api.LambdaRestApi(this, 'LambdaRestApi', apiGatewayProps);

new CloudFrontToApiGateway(this, 'test-cloudfront-apigateway', {
  existingApiGatewayObj: apiGateway
});

Python

from aws_solutions_constructs.aws_cloudfront_apigateway import CloudFrontToApiGateway
from aws_cdk import (
    aws_lambda as _lambda,
    aws_apigateway as api,
    Stack
)
from constructs import Construct

lambda_function = _lambda.Function(self, 'LambdaFunction',
                                    code=_lambda.Code.from_asset(
                                        'lambda'),
                                    runtime=_lambda.Runtime.PYTHON_3_9,
                                    handler='index.handler')

api_gateway = api.LambdaRestApi(self, 'LambdaRestApi',
                                handler=lambda_function,
                                endpoint_configuration=api.EndpointConfiguration(
                                    types=[api.EndpointType.REGIONAL]
                                ),
                                default_method_options=api.MethodOptions(
                                    authorization_type=api.AuthorizationType.NONE
                                ))

CloudFrontToApiGateway(self, 'test-cloudfront-apigateway',
                        existing_api_gateway_obj=api_gateway
                        )

Pattern Construct Props

Name Type Description
existingApiGatewayObj api.RestApi The regional API Gateway that will be fronted with the CloudFront
cloudFrontDistributionProps? cloudfront.DistributionProps | any Optional user provided props to override the default props for CloudFront Distribution
insertHttpSecurityHeaders? boolean Optional user provided props to turn on/off the automatic injection of best practice HTTP security headers in all responses from CloudFront
responseHeadersPolicyProps? cloudfront.ResponseHeadersPolicyProps Optional user provided configuration that cloudfront applies to all http responses.
cloudFrontLoggingBucketProps? s3.BucketProps Optional user provided props to override the default props for the CloudFront Logging Bucket.

Pattern Properties

Name Type Description
cloudFrontWebDistribution cloudfront.Distribution Returns an instance of cloudfront.Distribution created by the construct
apiGateway api.RestApi Returns an instance of the API Gateway REST API created by the pattern.
cloudFrontFunction? cloudfront.Function Returns an instance of the Cloudfront function created by the pattern.
cloudFrontLoggingBucket s3.Bucket Returns an instance of the logging bucket for CloudFront Distribution.

Default settings

Out of the box implementation of the Construct without any override will set the following defaults:

Amazon CloudFront

  • Configure Access logging for CloudFront Distribution
  • Enable automatic injection of best practice HTTP security headers in all responses from CloudFront Distribution

Amazon API Gateway

  • User provided API Gateway object is used as-is
  • Enable X-Ray Tracing
