CfnCustomResource

class aws_cdk.CfnCustomResource(scope, id, *, service_token, service_timeout=None)

Bases: CfnResource

In a CloudFormation template, you use the AWS::CloudFormation::CustomResource or Custom:: *String* resource type to specify custom resources.

Custom resources provide a way for you to write custom provisioning logic in CloudFormation template and have CloudFormation run it during a stack operation, such as when you create, update or delete a stack. For more information, see Custom resources . .. epigraph:

If you use the `VPC endpoints <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/vpc-endpoints.html>`_ feature, custom resources in the VPC must have access to CloudFormation -specific Amazon Simple Storage Service ( Amazon S3 ) buckets. Custom resources must send responses to a presigned Amazon S3 URL. If they can't send responses to Amazon S3 , CloudFormation won't receive a response and the stack operation fails. For more information, see `Setting up VPC endpoints for AWS CloudFormation <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/cfn-vpce-bucketnames.html>`_ .

See:: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-cloudformation-customresource.html
CloudformationResource:: AWS::CloudFormation::CustomResource
ExampleMetadata:: fixture=_generated

Example:

# The code below shows an example of how to instantiate this type.
# The values are placeholders you should change.
import aws_cdk as cdk

cfn_custom_resource = cdk.CfnCustomResource(self, "MyCfnCustomResource",
    service_token="serviceToken",

    # the properties below are optional
    service_timeout=123
)

Parameters:

scope (Construct) – Scope in which this resource is defined.
id (str) – Construct identifier for this resource (unique in its scope).
service_token (str) – The service token, such as an Amazon SNS topic ARN or Lambda function ARN. The service token must be from the same Region as the stack. Updates aren’t supported.
service_timeout (Union[int, float, None]) – The maximum time, in seconds, that can elapse before a custom resource operation times out. The value must be an integer from 1 to 3600. The default value is 3600 seconds (1 hour).

Methods

add_deletion_override(path)

Syntactic sugar for addOverride(path, undefined).

Parameters:: path (str) – The path of the value to delete.
Return type:: None

add_dependency(target)

Indicates that this resource depends on another resource and cannot be provisioned unless the other resource has been successfully provisioned.

This can be used for resources across stacks (or nested stack) boundaries and the dependency will automatically be transferred to the relevant scope.

Parameters:

target (CfnResource) –

Return type:

None

add_depends_on(target)

(deprecated) Indicates that this resource depends on another resource and cannot be provisioned unless the other resource has been successfully provisioned.

Parameters:

target (CfnResource) –

Deprecated:

use addDependency

Stability:

deprecated

Return type:

None

add_metadata(key, value)

Add a value to the CloudFormation Resource Metadata.

Parameters:

key (str) –
value (Any) –

See:

Return type:

None

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/metadata-section-structure.html

Note that this is a different set of metadata from CDK node metadata; this metadata ends up in the stack template under the resource, whereas CDK node metadata ends up in the Cloud Assembly.

add_override(path, value)

Adds an override to the synthesized CloudFormation resource.

To add a property override, either use addPropertyOverride or prefix path with “Properties.” (i.e. Properties.TopicName).

If the override is nested, separate each nested level using a dot (.) in the path parameter. If there is an array as part of the nesting, specify the index in the path.

To include a literal . in the property name, prefix with a \. In most programming languages you will need to write this as "\\." because the \ itself will need to be escaped.

For example:

cfn_resource.add_override("Properties.GlobalSecondaryIndexes.0.Projection.NonKeyAttributes", ["myattribute"])
cfn_resource.add_override("Properties.GlobalSecondaryIndexes.1.ProjectionType", "INCLUDE")

would add the overrides Example:

"Properties": {
  "GlobalSecondaryIndexes": [
    {
      "Projection": {
        "NonKeyAttributes": [ "myattribute" ]
        ...
      }
      ...
    },
    {
      "ProjectionType": "INCLUDE"
      ...
    },
  ]
  ...
}

The value argument to addOverride will not be processed or translated in any way. Pass raw JSON values in here with the correct capitalization for CloudFormation. If you pass CDK classes or structs, they will be rendered with lowercased key names, and CloudFormation will reject the template.

Parameters:

path (str) –
- The path of the property, you can use dot notation to override values in complex types. Any intermediate keys will be created as needed.
value (Any) –
- The value. Could be primitive or complex.

Return type:

None

add_property_deletion_override(property_path)

Adds an override that deletes the value of a property from the resource definition.

Parameters:: property_path (str) – The path to the property.
Return type:: None

add_property_override(property_path, value)

Adds an override to a resource property.

Syntactic sugar for addOverride("Properties.<...>", value).

Parameters:

property_path (str) – The path of the property.
value (Any) – The value.

Return type:

None

apply_removal_policy(policy=None, *, apply_to_update_replace_policy=None, default=None)

Sets the deletion policy of the resource based on the removal policy specified.

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you’ve removed it from the CDK application or because you’ve made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN). In some cases, a snapshot can be taken of the resource prior to deletion (RemovalPolicy.SNAPSHOT). A list of resources that support this policy can be found in the following link:

Parameters:

policy (Optional[RemovalPolicy]) –
apply_to_update_replace_policy (Optional[bool]) – Apply the same deletion policy to the resource’s “UpdateReplacePolicy”. Default: true
default (Optional[RemovalPolicy]) – The default policy to apply in case the removal policy is not defined. Default: - Default value is resource specific. To determine the default value for a resource, please consult that specific resource’s documentation.

See:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-attribute-deletionpolicy.html#aws-attribute-deletionpolicy-options

Return type:

None

get_att(attribute_name, type_hint=None)

Returns a token for an runtime attribute of this resource.

Ideally, use generated attribute accessors (e.g. resource.arn), but this can be used for future compatibility in case there is no generated attribute.

Parameters:

attribute_name (str) – The name of the attribute.
type_hint (Optional[ResolutionTypeHint]) –

Return type:

Reference

get_metadata(key)

Retrieve a value value from the CloudFormation Resource Metadata.

Parameters:

key (str) –

See:

Return type:

Any

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/metadata-section-structure.html

Note that this is a different set of metadata from CDK node metadata; this metadata ends up in the stack template under the resource, whereas CDK node metadata ends up in the Cloud Assembly.

inspect(inspector)

Examines the CloudFormation resource and discloses attributes.

Parameters:: inspector (TreeInspector) – tree inspector to collect and process attributes.
Return type:: None

obtain_dependencies()

Retrieves an array of resources this resource depends on.

This assembles dependencies on resources across stacks (including nested stacks) automatically.

Return type:: List[Union[Stack, CfnResource]]

obtain_resource_dependencies()

Get a shallow copy of dependencies between this resource and other resources in the same stack.

Return type:: List[CfnResource]

override_logical_id(new_logical_id)

Overrides the auto-generated logical ID with a specific ID.

Parameters:: new_logical_id (str) – The new logical ID to use for this stack element.
Return type:: None

remove_dependency(target)

Indicates that this resource no longer depends on another resource.

This can be used for resources across stacks (including nested stacks) and the dependency will automatically be removed from the relevant scope.

Parameters:

target (CfnResource) –

Return type:

None

replace_dependency(target, new_target)

Replaces one dependency with another.

Parameters:

target (CfnResource) – The dependency to replace.
new_target (CfnResource) – The new dependency to add.

Return type:

None

to_string()

Returns a string representation of this construct.

Return type:: str
Returns:: a string representation of this resource

Attributes

CFN_RESOURCE_TYPE_NAME = 'AWS::CloudFormation::CustomResource'

attr_id

Id

Type:: cloudformationAttribute

cfn_options: Options for this resource, such as condition, update policy etc.

cfn_resource_type: AWS resource type.

creation_stack

return:

the stack trace of the point where this Resource was created from, sourced from the +metadata+ entry typed +aws:cdk:logicalId+, and with the bottom-most node +internal+ entries filtered.

logical_id

The logical ID for this CloudFormation stack element.

The logical ID of the element is calculated from the path of the resource node in the construct tree.

To override this value, use overrideLogicalId(newLogicalId).

Returns:

the logical ID as a stringified token. This value will only get resolved during synthesis.

node: The tree node.

ref

Return a string that will be resolved to a CloudFormation { Ref } for this element.

If, by any chance, the intrinsic reference of a resource is not a string, you could coerce it to an IResolvable through Lazy.any({ produce: resource.ref }).

service_timeout: The maximum time, in seconds, that can elapse before a custom resource operation times out.

service_token: The service token, such as an Amazon SNS topic ARN or Lambda function ARN.

stack

The stack in which this element is defined.

CfnElements must be defined within a stack scope (directly or indirectly).

Static Methods

classmethod is_cfn_element(x)

Returns true if a construct is a stack element (i.e. part of the synthesized cloudformation template).

Uses duck-typing instead of instanceof to allow stack elements from different versions of this library to be included in the same stack.

Parameters:

x (Any) –

Return type:

bool

Returns:

The construct as a stack element or undefined if it is not a stack element.

classmethod is_cfn_resource(x)

Check whether the given object is a CfnResource.

Parameters:

x (Any) –

Return type:

bool

classmethod is_construct(x)

Checks if x is a construct.

Use this method instead of instanceof to properly detect Construct instances, even when the construct library is symlinked.

Explanation: in JavaScript, multiple copies of the constructs library on disk are seen as independent, completely different libraries. As a consequence, the class Construct in each copy of the constructs library is seen as a different class, and an instance of one class will not test as instanceof the other class. npm install will not create installations like this, but users may manually symlink construct libraries together or use a monorepo tool: in those cases, multiple copies of the constructs library can be accidentally installed, and instanceof will behave unpredictably. It is safest to avoid using instanceof, and using this type-testing method instead.

Parameters:: x (Any) – Any object.
Return type:: bool
Returns:: true if x is an object created from a class which extends Construct.
