AWS CDK Construct Library to interact with GitHub's API.

Project description

npm version PyPI version NuGet version release cdk-constructs: Experimental

CDK-GitHub

GitHub Constructs for use in AWS CDK .

This project aims to make GitHub's API accessible through CDK with various helper constructs to create resources in GitHub. The target is to replicate most of the functionality of the official Terraform GitHub Provider.

Internally AWS CloudFormation custom resources and octokit are used to manage GitHub resources (such as Secrets).

🔧 Installation

JavaScript/TypeScript: npm install cdk-github

Python: pip install cdk-github

C# See https://www.nuget.org/packages/CdkGithub

📚 Constructs

This library provides the following constructs:

🔓 Authentication

Currently the constructs only support authentication via a GitHub Personal Access Token. The token needs to be a stored in a AWS SecretsManager Secret and passed to the construct as parameter.

👩‍🏫 Examples

The API documentation and examples in different languages are available on Construct Hub. All (typescript) examples can be found in the folder examples.

ActionSecret

import { Secret } from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-secretsmanager';
import { ActionSecret } from 'cdk-github';

export class ActionSecretStack extends Stack {
  constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props?: StackProps) {
    super(scope, id, props);

    const sourceSecret = Secret.fromSecretNameV2(this, 'secretToStoreInGitHub', 'testcdkgithub');
    const githubTokenSecret = Secret.fromSecretNameV2(this, 'ghSecret', 'GITHUB_TOKEN');

    new ActionSecret(this, 'GitHubActionSecret', {
      githubTokenSecret,
      repositoryName: 'cdk-github',
      repositoryOwner: 'wtfjoke',
      repositorySecretName: 'aRandomGitHubSecret',
      sourceSecret,
    });
  }
}

ActionEnvironmentSecret

import { Secret } from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-secretsmanager';
import { ActionEnvironmentSecret } from 'cdk-github';

export class ActionEnvironmentSecretStack extends Stack {
  constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props?: StackProps) {
    super(scope, id, props);

    const sourceSecret = Secret.fromSecretNameV2(this, 'secretToStoreInGitHub', 'testcdkgithub');
    const githubTokenSecret = Secret.fromSecretNameV2(this, 'ghSecret', 'GITHUB_TOKEN');

    new ActionEnvironmentSecret(this, 'GitHubActionEnvironmentSecret', {
      githubTokenSecret,
      environment: 'dev',
      repositoryName: 'cdk-github',
      repositoryOwner: 'wtfjoke',
      repositorySecretName: 'aRandomGitHubSecret',
      sourceSecret,
    });
  }
}
