CDK Python Project Demo App

This app logs path /hello, /hi to dynamodb and displays it as HTML website.

To try the demo visit CDKWorkshop

Prerequisites

1. Setup Admin user cdk-workshop with AdminAccess
2. Configure aws credentials
3. Check Node.js version is >= 10.13.0, if not update it
4. Install CDK toolkit npm install -g aws-cdk & Check CDK version cdk --version is >= 2.0.0
5. Check Python is >= 3.6

Setup

1. Git clone the repository

2. Activate the virtualenv

To manually create a virtualenv on MacOS and Linux:

$ python3 -m venv .venv

After the init process completes and the virtualenv is created, you can use the following step to activate your virtualenv.

$ source .venv/bin/activate

If you are a Windows platform, you would activate the virtualenv like this:

% .venv\Scripts\activate.bat

Once the virtualenv is activated, you can install the required dependencies.

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Sythesize the CloudFormation template At this point you can now synthesize the CloudFormation template for this code.

$ cdk synth

To add additional dependencies, for example other CDK libraries, just add them to your setup.py file and rerun the pip install -r requirements.txt command.

4. Deploy the stack

$ cdk deploy

Useful commands

• cdk ls list all stacks in the app
• cdk synth emits the synthesized CloudFormation template
• cdk deploy deploy this stack to your default AWS account/region
• cdk diff compare deployed stack with current state
• cdk docs open CDK documentation

Enjoy!
