From 98ecc74d11439cd898bdabaecf5f9ae56d14da7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Momo Kornher Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2025 14:34:42 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] feat(aws-cdk): add resource change filtering for deploy and diff commands Add --allow-resource-changes option to restrict deployments to specific resource types or properties. This enables safer deployments by preventing unintended changes to critical resources. - Add ResourceFilter API with pattern matching for resource types and properties - Integrate validation into deploy and diff commands - Support wildcard patterns (e.g., AWS::Lambda::*) - Provide detailed violation messages with remediation guidance - Include comprehensive unit tests and integration tests --- packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/index.ts | 1 + packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/resource-filter.ts | 172 ++++++++++++++++++ packages/aws-cdk/lib/cli/cdk-toolkit.ts | 55 ++++++ packages/aws-cdk/lib/cli/cli-config.ts | 2 + packages/aws-cdk/lib/cli/cli.ts | 2 + .../aws-cdk/test/api/resource-filter.test.ts | 131 +++++++++++++ .../cli/resource-filter-integration.test.ts | 60 ++++++ 7 files changed, 423 insertions(+) create mode 100644 packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/resource-filter.ts create mode 100644 packages/aws-cdk/test/api/resource-filter.test.ts create mode 100644 packages/aws-cdk/test/cli/resource-filter-integration.test.ts diff --git a/packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/index.ts b/packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/index.ts index 7b6596777..65ca75601 100644 --- a/packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/index.ts +++ b/packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/index.ts @@ -6,6 +6,7 @@ export * from './deployments'; export * from './aws-auth'; export * from './cloud-assembly'; export * from './notices'; +export * from './resource-filter'; export * from '../../../@aws-cdk/toolkit-lib/lib/api/diff'; export * from '../../../@aws-cdk/toolkit-lib/lib/api/io'; diff --git a/packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/resource-filter.ts b/packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/resource-filter.ts new file mode 100644 index 000000000..91a07cc26 --- /dev/null +++ b/packages/aws-cdk/lib/api/resource-filter.ts @@ -0,0 +1,172 @@ +import type { ResourceDifference } from '@aws-cdk/cloudformation-diff'; +import { ToolkitError } from '@aws-cdk/toolkit-lib'; + +/** + * Represents a resource filter pattern + */ +export interface ResourceFilter { + /** + * The resource type pattern (e.g., 'AWS::Lambda::Function') + */ + resourceType: string; + + /** + * Optional property path (e.g., 'Properties.Code.S3Key') + */ + propertyPath?: string; +} + +/** + * Parses a filter string into a ResourceFilter object + */ +export function parseResourceFilter(filter: string): ResourceFilter { + const parts = filter.split('.'); + const resourceType = parts[0]; + + if (!resourceType) { + throw new ToolkitError(`Invalid resource filter: '${filter}'.
