Prompt Detail:
CDK (AWS Cloud Development Kit) is a software development framework that allows developers to define cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages such as TypeScript, Python, and Java. The cdk synth
command is used to generate a CloudFormation template from a CDK app.
If you want to use cdk synth
in an Nx workspace, you can follow these steps:
Install the AWS CDK and the AWS SDK for JavaScript:
npm install aws-cdk aws-sdk
Create a new directory for your CDK app inside the Nx workspace:
bashmkdir apps/cdk-app
Initialize the CDK app using the
cdk init
command:csharpnpx cdk init --language=typescript
Create a stack inside your CDK app using the
cdk generate
command:arduinonpx cdk generate stack MyStack
Define the resources that you want to create in your stack by editing the generated TypeScript file inside the
lib
directory.Run the
cdk synth
command to generate a CloudFormation template:npx cdk synth
The generated CloudFormation template will be saved in the
cdk.out
directory.
Note that you can also use the nx generate
command to create a new CDK app and generate a stack:
scssnx generate @nrwl/aws:app cdk-app
nx generate @nrwl/aws:cdk --name=my-stack --project=cdk-app
This will create a new directory called cdk-app
inside the apps
directory, and a new stack called MyStack
inside the cdk-app
project. You can then edit the generated TypeScript files and use the cdk synth
command to generate a CloudFormation template.
